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.

This is not a safari idiot. I want animals and poo poo, driving in a land rover looking @ antelops

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.

somebody please scout out the "What are your thoughts on women your with Peeing?" thread

I need to know


here you can see a prime specimen of the north american post irony meme. the subsequent post said merely "red" so i'm guessing the red bar is for making up stories or being an ironic/sincere elliot rodger type
