I end up lurking mostly at IJBM, and after a while of being here in TVT forums, I've gotten used to the typical cycles of trolls, flames, controversial topics, ignorance, low blows, etc. that start to get pretty tiring after a while.
But eventually I love coming back here, 'cuz I love the sense of humor people have =D . Tropers can be so funny, and so different, but still 'connect' somehow in a communal way that I haven't seen in any of the other forums I frequent. They're often much more formal and sensitive (not to mention passive-aggressive), or the other end of the spectrum where it's just a cesspit. This place just hits that sweet spot 'comfort zone', somewhere.
I'm always delighted when someone's cleverness surprises a good laugh out of me, and this happens on a wonderfully regular basis. And then others smell the bait and take advantage of it, creating a humorous momentum that often creates a very extended joke! Those are just great. Love the laughs.
