Here's my imitation of most threads on this forum:
user1: can you help me with ______
user2: it helps to do _____
user3: user1, you idiot, can't you do anything by yourself, you need help for everything;
and then, i don't know, something about steak and french fries and harassing the kitchen staff???!!

Why can't we all get along like this:

yes, but I'm assuming we're all more than 5. The people on this forum could fight about whether or not the Earth is round. I'm just so sick of all the bickering. If there's someone you don't get along with on this forum, why not just NOT talk to them?

Unfortunately, some people here find it thrilling to be completely obnoxious and incite flame wars at any possible opportunity. Even more unfortunately, some other people that supposedly stand against the trolling/flaming will feed the trolls, responding to their irritating remarks and consequently stroking the egos of said trolls, who desperately need anyone to pay attention. This ego boost leads to more inflammatory posts, which are almost inevitably followed by more condescending remarks in a misguided effort to slay the beast. This process allows the suffering to march into perpetuity.

Like a washer that goes 'round and round dirtying clothing while cleaning it. Makes no sense, does it?
