Here, this group is having a good time discussing whatever might pop into their heads. If you can't handle it, get lost and go conform to locking "off topic" and "stupid newb threads."
I agree. I don't see the problem with having a fun and goofy thread in Gen Chat. This Intarweb thing is Serious Business™, but I think we can take some time to have fun.
Stupid threads about sandwiches and pants are a big part of what makes this a community and not a dry online encyclopedia.
There must be something wrong with me, but I actually like helping out people who are new to the 240SX or cars in general. I'm not a tech guru, but I try to contribute what I can. If someone asks a stupid question (contrary to the tired aphorism there are such things as stupid questions) it's not the end of the world. Is it really so bad to just treat people with respect? I'd rather see a dozen "stupid" posts than one thread where someone is treated like **** just for asking a newb question or not searching.
On a much more serious note, I'm really sad to hear the Subway doesn't have the stamps anymore. I had no idea. My 30 days of mourning will begin right now.
