Do you have good and bad Fluther days?

Asked by HGl3ee (3955points) October 28th, 2009

I’m curious if you have days where the answers to questions come easily and days where the answers never come?

I know I have my good and bad days. The bad days I usually just keep to myself and lurk around, but on good days you just can’t shush me up!

Much Lurve! – LB

asmonet's avatar

Oh, like you wouldn’t believe.
Mine have more to do with how snippy with others I am rather than how prolific I am.

kibaxcheza's avatar

yup
some days it seems like everyone hates me on here lol

patg7590's avatar

Yes, I have bad Fluther days…
today was one of them

DominicX's avatar

Yeah, my bad days are when it seems like everything I say turns into an argument and it’s causing more distress than enjoyment. I usually step back and do something else at that point.

nxknxk's avatar

They’re all bad days. Being here makes me realize how little I know. But that’s why I’m staying.

patg7590's avatar

@DominicX what happened to that other thread? (you know what I’m talking about ;] )

AstroChuck's avatar

Yes. There are days where my flutheritis horribly flares up and other days when I don’t find applying the cream necessary. Those are the days the answers flow like wine.

Any of that make sense?

jrpowell's avatar

Same thing here. And I have a theory. Questions usually come in waves, sometimes one iPhone question will remind everyone else that they have a iPhone question. So you get a bunch of similar questions in a short period of time.

But I do have days that I look at every question and have nothing to add to any of them. And sometimes I have something to add to pretty much every question.

J0E's avatar

Definitely. Some days I get on and I feel like starting a fight with the first person I see.

Parrappa's avatar

Yes! Some days I come on here, gun loaded and all and I just go nuts. Other times I’m on here for a few seconds before I realize I just don’t feel like answering any thing.

YARNLADY's avatar

Nope, in my life, every day is just like every other day, and I like it like that. Yarnlady is happy every day.

good fluther day= I didn’t piss any one off and had several good responses to great questions.

bad fluther day= pissed off at least one person, could only come up with snarky responses, and had an image of at least one Jelly being waterboarded by an elephant with a bladder control problem.

MacBean's avatar

Yes. Today I snapped at someone who didn’t deserve it. I knew I was in a bad mood, and should not have been Fluthering. :(

Dr_C's avatar

Don’t believe a single word that @whatthefluther said.. he doesn’t have bad fluther days (in fact… his worst fluther day is better than most of us will ever have)...

@AstroChuck would that be “Preparation F”?

@asmonet the only bad fluther days i remember you having were when you BROKE FLUTHER.

As for me… i usualy have mostly bad fluther days.. punctuated here and there with rare and brief flashes of coherence…

Capt_Bloth's avatar

Oh yes. I would say 90% of the time I’m on fluther, I answer nothing. Most of the time I feel like there is nothing I have to add, or no questions I feel like answering.
But some days, I answer lots and lots of things. I have found those days I am usually drinking.
if alchohol is a social lubricant, I must be a naturally dry person

kibaxcheza's avatar

@Capt_Bloth you and me both cuz…

knitfroggy's avatar

I have both. What I hate more than anything is when it’s late at night and nothing is going on. Makes me kinda sad.

asmonet's avatar

@Dr_C: :( ..That was totally like… my master plan? Or something? ;)

And I think I’ve done it twice, definitely twice – maybe thrice.

Bluefreedom's avatar

Yes, I have both good and bad Fluther days. I rarely have good and bad Fluther nights because I’m sleeping then. I always have good Fluther dreams, though. That’s a plus.

wundayatta's avatar

What’s a bad day? There are days when the questions all seem uninspired, which makes it hard for me to be very creative. When that happens, I try to throw out a few questions for people to sink their teeth into.

Other times there’s more than enough questions to answer. Although I don’t always answer them well.

jonsblond's avatar

Really bad for me today. I went through so many tampons!

kibaxcheza's avatar

@jonsblond excuse me while i throw up…...

Psychedelic_Zebra's avatar

@jonsblond too much information, dear.

asmonet's avatar

^Love her.

MacBean's avatar

I love TMI. Separates out the wimps.

kibaxcheza's avatar

@MacBean well no one loves you so it all evens out now doesnt it.

asmonet's avatar

@MacBean: You are incorrect, I love Macbean. We’re just having a tiff because of her silly lack of excellent choices in cinema.

wundayatta's avatar

And I love the persona she projects! Tough but sensible. Or sensible and tough. And I especially love her comment just above. I’m glad someone spoke up for TMI! TMI is what makes this place worth being at. How many places do you know where you can find out about people’s experiences with the real nitty gritty of life?

Dr_C's avatar

@daloon, @asmonet , & @MacBean if we get TMI on regular fluther.. can you imagine what it would be like if we had a weekly fluther “drunken post” night? then we’d get some REAL TMI.
i vote thursdays

patg7590's avatar

I second @Dr_C ‘s motion

wundayatta's avatar

@Dr_C In my experience it’s not so much TMI you get out of drunken flutherers as it is erratic, sometimes belligerent, sometimes silly comments.

patg7590's avatar

@daloon still funny though

Dr_C's avatar

@daloon i resent that! I may be going nucking futs but i’m not as thunk as you drink i am!

HGl3ee's avatar

@Everyone : I love Fluther because you are all fantastically amazing individuals! Thanks for giving me an awesome giggle this morning!! Much Lurve <3 – LB

wundayatta's avatar

@Dr_C You can’t resent that. It’s like resenting concrete.

Ok, ok. Weak, but that’s all I could come up with in five seconds

Fred931's avatar

I think I got into an argument with several flutherers at once for some reason and completely by accident, and that that’s the only bad Fluther day I’ve ever had.

patg7590's avatar

Today was good :]

Resonantscythe's avatar

Been having a bad fluther month. Just haven’t been too into it for some reason. I’m behind by about 100 questions and just can’t muster the interest in them.

Berserker's avatar

The answers usually pretty much always come.

That’s probably bad for everybody present.

Hypocrisy_Central's avatar

Good or bad days are there but no in the sense you speak of; usually days where there is nothing viable, sharp, or thought provoking to answer. I start to click on something just to realize it is silly, then go browse YouTube or shop on Amazon.
