UnholyThirst You can say that all you want but that’s what is happening. We don’t answer lame mommy questions or relationship questions because we don’t care. When we do see something of interest we’ll answer it.

hearkat How are we discriminating if we simply ask you to adhere to the guidelines and terms & conditions of the site?

UnholyThirst You act like the police. You Google’d all of us and found we used to be on Yahoo Answers! WTF? Who does that? Who as a website like yours would do that and for what reason other than to pry?

UnholyThirst I like this site but, this is getting really F’ing ridiculous

UnholyThirst Going to kick me off?

UnholyThirst Jokes about discrimination. Very nice

UnholyThirst And Fluther is by far from popular

UnholyThirst I really don’t care. I’ll tell you what, I’ll grasp what others think and then if they want us to go, we’ll go.
