On the thread he started, titled “Love”:

“What a deep subject. What do you love the most? Or who do you love and why do you love them (let’s just keep religion out of the discussion).”

Conversation starters:

“I love my spouse because _________.”

“I love being single because _________.”

“The reason I fell in love with that person is _______________.”

“The reason why I love life is ____________.”

“Anyone ever notice the songs on the radio? They’re about falling for someone and the feelings they’re experiencing, or, they’re about being hurt or jaded and the resulting aftermath…… for the most part at least. I bet everyone that reads this thread can relate to the next song they hear on the radio.”

Six days after his previous post, when still no one had responded:

“No takers? Well, using the words of Andy Kaufman, ‘Here I come to save the day!’ I mean, come on people ‘more cowbell’…. Christopher Walken would be ashamed of ya’ll.”

One minute after his previous post, when still no one had responded:

“This is as predictable as waking up after an ill-advised night out—startled that you’re not overly-enthused with the company.”

Eleven minutes after his previous post, when still no one had responded:

“Opps, sorry if I hit a nerve. After all there are like 152 viewers to this thread and not a single comment made? Ok, I viewed it like 3 times to see if it was as lame as the apparent lack of responses indicate. But we’re talking love here—not grocery shoping [sic] for the least expensive toilet paper you can get that doesn’t feel like sandpaper. (BTW, am I the only one that shops that way for tp? Maybe I should rethink my values—could be missing out on something big.)”

Five minutes after his previous post, when still no one had responded:

“And don’t go there with your puns about the last parenthetical statement. But then again I’ll take what I can get (no pun intended).”
