or; shameless, pointless comments and the saints who love them

I've been here at JU for almost a year now, but I didn't really start getting active until this last February. Of course, as many of you know, I go through spurts here, sometimes being very active, sometimes being really lazy. Sometimes I don't like to get involved with different things going on here, and other times I really do.
But if there's one thing that I'm always a fan of, without fail, it's hijacking a thread. There's nothing better than having a conversation with someone about nothing related on someone else's thread. I do it all the time, without realizing it, because I usually like to make jokes rather than serious comments. It's a lot more enjoyable being a jokester rather than seriously inclined.
It's even worse when I find like-minded individuals. Sometimes I just like to keep a thread going, hijacked to high heaven, just 'cuz it's fun. It's easier than actually sitting down and writing an email to these people, and I don't know the address of many of my hijacking partners . . . consequently, I just go ahead and keep on hijackin'.
Now, does it bother me when this happens on my own threads? Couldn't care less. Because, as Granny always used to say, “Do unto others what you would have them do unto you.” So, I hijack shamelessly – and anyone's free to hijack mine.
For example, look at Xythe's thread about unfair scoring on JU. After about respone 20, it's been pure hijacked crap. Now whip and I are talking about hobbit feet. And it's still the scoring thread. And I don't even feel bad.
Now, some of you may not feel the way I do. Please, if you hate my hijacking, go ahead and tell me. Call me bad names. If you are a like-minded individual, band together with me in the hijacking of threads.
Come on, y'all know it's just more fun.
