I come in here to get a good laugh out of the Off Topics... It just makes the days more tolerable . TRUST
And the other side of that coin is the life affecting threads that some feel comfortable putting up here and the support that is shown. Helps to trivialize some of the BS and rudeness displayed out in the Zone.

The laughter and the caring humanizes something that could be cold. Being reminded of how compassionate and caring people can be that we've never met is vital to someone that does not have the level human interaction they once had.

The beauty of the Off-Topics Zone, the OTZ, is that we come here to share, to make each other and ourselves laugh and not try to impress with what we know or who we are. I can spend just so much time out in the Zone before I gotta get back in here and get my fix.

My main regret about being a part of these two forums is that I did not share enough when I was going through life altering events and there are friends here that could have helped me through that. I saw that happen on the old DC.com and I've seen that since I've been here. I would advise anyone here to not shut off when you're going through a storm in your life because this can be a safe haven and people sincerely care. Posters cannot solve your problems but knowing some care can sure go a long way toward helping you resolve them. Believe me, I was in as dark and deep a place as I've ever been and did not realize there was light available.

Man, hate to get sappy but the last line in the film "Hoosiers" sums it up for me "love you guys".

Gee. I don't even know how to respond to that. That's a bit of a first for me!

Sorry, Verdict. I had to pick somebody and you had posted just above. I don't even know if you have a sister.

But the correct response from you was "You mean he's going down?" For the record.

You can also easily see intelligence in humor. A lot of the most intelligent posters here are very understated but you can see it in their subtle humor.

It's like there is a message that everyone reads, but there is a whole different unsaid humor going on underneath the surface that is unspoken but is the real point of the message. It's brilliant stuff.

I'm telling you guys, every time I come to this website I literally laugh my *** off. When I start laughing so hard that I am almost in tears my girlfriend will look at me and say "Are you on your Dallas Cowboys website again"? Lol. Seriously.
I wanna see a cagematch between this guy and Cern.

Yep, my first stop in here every time is in the Members Area and Off-Topic Zones to get a laugh or dozen and it's never let me down. If every human that inhabits the planet spent more time trying to be funny, we would have a much happier planet. And those aliens out there watching and waiting and deciding our fate would have more compassion for a bunch of yuksters and not feel threatened that we're going to blow ourselves up and send this rock hurtling through space creating havoc like drunks at a pool table.

I always felt Laughter didn't get it's rightful place in "The Greatest of These" because the healing properties are invaluable and laughter can literally save one's life. And I am a witness to that. It is the fastest way to begin restoring a broken heart. And often, the only way.

We had some funny posters on DC.com but this much mo way better as a humor site has been created within a sports web site and that is the main reason I am a Zone Supporter.

Had the same thing happen with my wife and when I was going through some rough water with my Dad, I left. I was away for a while and one day she asked me "are you still going to the Cowboys site and goofing off". I told her I wasn't and she told me to get back there, it was necessary therapy and she was right. And I would need it again and again.

And I do not mean this probably the way it sounds but it wasn't as important that the posters there make me laugh as it was that I make myself laugh. I have that gift, to make myself laugh as my defense against the darkness. And I used the old site and now use this one for that. If someone else laughs, that's a bonus but it is my first priority to make myself laugh and when I was going through some rough times, I forgot to do that. And when we're trying to be funny here, we have no idea how others are responding so if I am not getting that selfish fix, it's not working.

In my work, I manage a lot of stuff that the entire company relies on. It's a lot of pressure, but I hire great people to help me with that. Guys (and ladies) I don't have to micro-manage. I try very hard to keep everything I do that isn't business related on the lighter side. It keeps me from becoming uptight and so far I've never had blood pressure issues.

While I joke around with people around me. I'm not a super social person otherwise. (I go to work, and I go home) This forum is an outlet for me to reach people beyond my home and work life.

Nothing is better than pulling off a spectacular drive-by verbal smack-down and then leaving the thread never having to see the posters angry response haha.

Sure. Take a thread about funny posters, and make it sappy..... That's why you're the Grand Poobah of the Postjackers Guild!

I have to agree with Coach that there were many members on the DC.com site that were funny. Although I'm not sure what looks have to do with anything.
