Fun is a bit too strong of a word, in my opinion. Mindless fits better. General at least avoids that most of the time.

In the end, online debates don't matter. It's just raging at someone across the planet who really doesn't care and never will care, nothing gets done besides some egos being bruised, and it seems kind of counter-productive to go to this site just to do something not-very-fun.

Life's short, might as well have as much fun as possible before you go instead of arguing with everyone.

Let's go take a peek into any given thread and see how many accusations of 'SJW' or 'cuck' or 'patriach' or similar things are thrown around from the lowest common denominators, shall we?

If you use the term SJW or 'politically correct' to describe anyone left of center, I'm pretty sure that destroys all of your credibility as an intelligent human being. Quit being a twit and use something other than a buzzword to make your point.

I've been here since '12 (ever heard of a dude named Hydronium/Hydro?), and I know just how ya mean. Its crazy to think I'm already almost outta HS, among other things.

Of course I've heard of Hyrdronium, ever heard of Yoite though?

I've been out of HS since 2013, prepare yourself.

Hey man, arguing on the internet often leads to life-changing alterations in perspectives between participants, in which the contrast of differing view points widens their world view and opens a whole new realm of conceptual possibilities.

I jest.
