No offense but here is my one gripe about these boards.

[harper]

1.I realize that there are many age differences on these boards.Some of the questions like what did you have for dinner is really wasting their time and mine,Secondly I know the younger generation likes C.Aguilera,and B.Spears but these women have about as much talent as my dog ,gyrating and showing off body parts is the only way these women get any record labels interested.They cannot sing or dance.You don't have have pure genuine talent now a days.it's all done in the recording studios with trick musical gadgets to give the impression that any true genuine musical skills was put into the music.any of the young rapers and singers who say its about the music are saying that because saying it its for the money would seem selfish and shallow the problems is that that is that why people like spears are in music today P.Labelle,or any well known performer who has artistic integrity can say they do it because it feeds the soul.And for young rapers and performers stop thanking God.its not a thoughtful acknowledgement its now standard fair.Don't confuse fancy camera angles and dance moves that involve touching private areas as talent.The era of clean pure talent is gone unless its jazz.Penny lane said there was astute people on the internet a few are but there are alot of useless,brainless subjects without any real forthought and meaningfulness coming out,for those who want to talk deep and spiritually about music,relationships,children,or want to get into serious discussions about movies and Tv email me at CHPK@Erols.com.until the see ya later Penny lane

It's not really that bad, you just skip over the posts you dont want to read. The post about the Matrix, I didn't open it because I didn't like the movie so I skipped past it. There are a lot of good posts here on the boards.

I don't disagree with some of what you're saying, but the boards are a very democratic place, where anyone can express himself as long as he stays withing the bounds of decency.

[Tuesday Weld]

I agree,to a point,with what you say,but a lot of times when people(of any age)on these boards make "silly" posts,they're just trying to make conversation with others.You don't have to be serious all the time.JMO,though.

[Unwanted Angel]

oh suck it up dude!

If you want everything to be completely serious, you wont ever have any fun on here, because I dont think that many people are aaaalways serious on this board... like me for example.

[Moonlight Lady]

We come here to escape seriousness in our lives. Everyone needs to have fun. Without it, I think we'd all go crazy

[Mijada]

I agree with some of what you are saying. Just do what I do and skip over the posts that don't interest you and respond to the ones that do.

Same here. It's hard to fit in if you want everything to be serious. Like everyone else said, don't read what you don't like.

This is very true. I come here to escape and have fun. At 48 years of age, I enjoy reading some of the crazy and silly "stuff" here. I sometimes can add my dubious sage advice as well.

If you want "serious" discussion you might try news-related message boards. I think there may be boards associated with cnn.com or msnbc.com or .... ???

Just a thought.

As far as music is concerned: well, didn't they say the same kinds of thing about Sinatra and Elvis and the Beatles? Or for that matter, about jazz?

If you don't like it then, go away...

[Czas na Zywiec]

The majority of us are here because our parents neglected us. We're all psychopaths who have horrid lives and we come to rant about it.

[Montana Ponine]

I don't think that every single topic on these boards has to be on a total serious issue...people come here to have fun, make friends, be goofy. And, if you think about it, many of these so-called "useless" topics often turn into something good. Especially those random posts!

[°Bubbly Blonde°]

Britney is an GREAT dancer and Christina is a GREAT singer so how can u say they have no singing or dancing talents????
