Why is this a thread?

Parent Cafe
1

In the spirit of this question coming up lately in a couple threads, where people open the thread just to ask why it exists, I think we should supply a series of thread titles to inspire that question. I’ll start:

What color are the cinder-block walls in your student’s dorm room?
The little girl down the street from me just got accepted by the local pre-k. Discuss.
Some dude died.
What’s your favorite tax schedule form?
I think it might rain…what do you think?
Favorite plot spoilers
Favorite plot of ground

your turn!

Dumbest kitchen gadget ever

Since I hated my lunch an am still hungry, should I eat an ice cream sandwich this afternoon?

4

I want to be chanced but the chances can’t be low.

5

Can anyone here diagnose my medical problem? i’ve been to four doctors, had tons of tests and I still don’t feel well.

6

@zoosermom YES, eat the ice cream sandwich! :slight_smile:

7

How can I get my S to marry his GF and give me a grandchild ASAP? Am I wrong to want this?

I’m not a lawyer, but I play one on CC.

8

What should I do (make sure your response agrees with my idea)

hangnail: suggestions?

The burning question on everyone’s mind:

Mmmmmmm…ice cream

12

Please. Ice cream and dog poop should not be in the same thread.

13

Vanilla or chocolate? Discuss.

14

I’m laughing out loud. You are all too, too silly.

15

You guys make my day. Thank you!

16

LOL…Thanks, I really needed this thread. So funny! Zooser, I suggest gelato, but the ice cream sandwich will definitely do in a pinch.

17

Yes, I am really entertained by this thread! But I have to ask, do posters really post “Why is this a thread?”

I’m asking because I mostly read on the parent cafe, and I haven’t noticed this…so maybe I’m asleep at the switch.

I saw it on two current threads in the last 24 hours. De Blasio’s S going to yale, and David Goldberg’s death.

19

– I saw a typo once.
– There’s a sale on Saran wrap.
– How many pairs of underpants do I need for seven days?

I may have started a thread or two along those lines.

By the way, the dog’s internal pooping compass has been my small-talk topic of choice ever since it was first posted here! So that has been a useful one!

Not sure if this is in the same vein or not but here goes

---- I’m in 5th grade and I just got an 85 on a test, should I give up on my dream to attend HYP???
-----orange or blue?
----- should I buy the red curtains?
