If you watch out for it, you can see about a million absurd ways in which people are negative for no reason at all, but this blog will focus on just one that is near and dear to any reader that watches poker forums. I got an email recently saying somethign to the effect of, “you think you’re smart because you can write a blog, newsflash, no one cares!”

On forums I often see posts that are very similar to this email. People read something and then insist on replying to it by saying something about how nobody cares, they can say it any number of ways. Examples include, “why don’t you two get a room, no one else cares”, “I can’t believe I wasted 5 minutes of my life reading that”, “boooooring, next post please” or my personal favorite, “Do you ACTUALLY think anyone wants to read that?”.

Let’s put the hypocrisy of all these statements aside for a second and they STILL are among the most banal and pointlessly negative positions anyone can have. If the writer’s of these statements think things are boring or pointless there is NOTHING FORCING THEM TO READ.  Now back to the hypocrisy, they DID READ IT. I cannot hide my disgust for the people that waste my time writing comments like that ;)
