Who wants to look at what other popular forums are doing? Are they very different? Are they doing something SA does, but better/worse? I didn't know and if you care to find out or know of a forum to visit you should mention it in here.

here's an example:

BODYBUILDING.COM

a hackneyed post on forum.bodybuilding.com

here's their forums
https://forum.bodybuilding.com/forumdisplay.php?f=19&s=9171e2e8b063ff8547f3c960a86ccd22

I don't know a drat thing about bodybuilding.com other than that it was featured on the front page maybe a decade ago. I looked them up and this is what their gbs looks like



Fairly normal. Nothing funny, for sure. Doesn't seem worth clicking on anything here.

back in the day you joined a forum with a specific interest (like uh "The Jade Coccoon Fan Forum") and got to know the other people there, then you wanted to talk to them about other stuff, so they'd add forums for other topics that became popular. so the X-Men MUD BBS would also have a sports or medicine forum because that's just the way things played out

this that.

for some reason body building forums and clown forums are the two besides something awful that continue to survive in the age of social media

There is a whole cottage industry centered around selling candid cell phone quality photos of animals to people who couldn't line up a good picture with their phones in time. You go home and show the photos to people and either clarify or don't every time someone asks how you got lucky with the photo. This could be applied to visiting forums? I or someone else could throw down twenty bucks for a thumbdrive with ten jpegs of funny posts from other forums.

I say if were going to do safaris, we go all in and do them the traditional way which leads to the extinction of their biome and most of the species within.

the facepunch forums are the forums for the studio that made Garry's Mod and Rust and it has been around forever but its basically a low rent knockoff of something awful. the average poster age is probably like 16



its just a forum. none of the posts i found are worth posting here they are just boring and not even weird.

ok well lets check out their resident FYAD+BYOB knockoff OIFY



okay maybe that last thread will be good. lets check it out folks

all I know is that there's another Last Chance on bodybuilding.com and apparently hes a stud. a lady PM'd me on another forum (a music forum? cant remember where exactly) where I used this name and asked me "are you last chance from the bodybuilding.com forums? hi :)"

You may recall I wrote to you a while back regarding my pussy and her unwillingness to bury her feces in her litterbox. This has continued to be an intermittent problem, and I have learned to live with it, but now the problem has escalated.

Well this morning it happened AGAIN: I awoke to another steaming pile of cat poo poo on the bathroom mat!!! WHAT THE gently caress IS WRONG WITH MY PUSSY??! Did she learn from the blanket incident that it's ok to use any loose fabric as a toilet? If so, how do I discourage her from repeating this behavior? HELP ME, POONURSE!!!

I like how dude throws in a pointlessly awkward anal sex reference at the end for literally no reason. Good stuff.

Last time i looked at it it was all men with looking specifically for an attractive woman who has been married before but her husband has died. They need to confirm that they have a dead husband or its a deal breaker.
