Why do you Fluther?

Asked by giggles (162points) April 12th, 2008

is it because you have nothing else to do? or maybe your noisey and like to know all? is it because you like to answer questions?

I answer significantly more questions than I ask. I like to do research and I kinda look at it as, “Answers to questions I never knew I had.”

I love it because you can get real answers from real people that have had some kind of experience of knowledge what you want to know. But I tell ya its a pain to type it all on the iPhone LOL

3. There are, for the most part, interesting people on here

I Fluther for all kinds of reasons. I try to refrain from Fluthering if I’m in a foul mood or am not feeling well.

I like the majority of people here.
I like that it’s a site with a purpose.
I like that some of the questions are questions that I’ve never really given much thought to.
I like that I can be assured that there are better answers than mine, that mine’s not the only opinion, which means that I don’t have to check back with such great frequency. I can count on the fact that there are bigger and better brains than mine lurking here!

I have no life, and i would like to think of myself as more than just a myspace whore.

Breefield's avatar

I’m only not “great answering” because you do have a life you liar.

I fluther because I want to keep my score higher than skwerl88’s

skwerl88's avatar

Lies. You’re just looking for any excuse to keep my score down.

Breefield's avatar

So what if it’s true? Am I breaking a fluther law?

@skwerl88 and breefield

Now this can all be settled in a great manner!!! ... Now let’s see we will need a pair of gloves, two guns and um two bullets, and… Um some old looking suits and hats!!! Then we will be good to go!!!! Haha

skwerl88's avatar

We’ve already dueled with swords.
I cut him in the face. (Really, I did.)

scubydoo's avatar

its all about the STARS…maybe one day I can be like the big boys/gals and have 4-digits.

Breefield's avatar

He did, I still have the mark to prove it. Not so much dueling though because he was the only one with a sword.

giggles's avatar

I’m such a newbie!!!! I only have 2-digits!!!!!!

giggles's avatar

@ breefield and skwerl88

This time it will be even and done the right way!!!!

skwerl88's avatar

Thats far too egalitarian for my liking.

Breefield's avatar

I’m speechless, you can’t bring up old arguments. That is in the past bucko!

I feel like we’re dating, this is getting waaay out of hand.

skwerl88's avatar

Funny. I never knew you felt that way about me…

Let me point you here.

giggles's avatar

hahaha that’s fucking funny

Breefield's avatar

Yeah, I have to agree that is is. But I’m not gay so it’s all good.

giggles's avatar

hahaha thats good to know!!!!

kevbo's avatar

Currently, it’s my main outlet for proving I’m a smarty pants.

bluemukaki's avatar

Stars. Seriously, I have my iPod beside my bed so I can get my Fluther hit at 2am. Fluther is like crack to me.

wildflower's avatar

It’s an excuse to constantly touch my precious iPhone – and it linda gets the brain going, some questions actually make you wonder about stuff, whilst others just give you a chance to seem knowledgeable or opinionated…...all good fun ;)

wildflower's avatar

linda=kinda
Guess I haven’t mastered this iPhone-typing entirely yet…fluther’s good practice though.

gooch's avatar

It sparks debates at home. It also let’s me know what people think outside of my microcosm.

Randy's avatar

I can put it no better tan anyone already has here. I love the community and couldn’t ask for a better way to spend time discussing matters with people who do or do not see things the same way as myself. As it was so elegantly put by bluemukaki, Fluther is my crack lol.

cornman's avatar

The same reason a dog licks his balls.

peedub's avatar

hahahahahaha

WastaBwoy's avatar

I’m bored

Trustinglife's avatar

and just why, cornman, does a dog lick his balls?

peedub's avatar

The same reason cornman Fluthers: an itch to scratch.

wildflower's avatar

Or…because he can.

ninjaxmarc's avatar

it passes some down time for me when I have my phone and technically can’t do anything else plus I love the community.

cornman's avatar

because he can!
