| Poll question: when you stumble upon a train-wreck thread do you: |
|
If its on GD - and a topic I care about - count me in as a get sucked in.
If it is on GD - a topic I don't know much about or care about - I just pass quickly by.
If it is on Election Reform and Bev Harris name arises - I generally either do a single post - or read it thoroughly (cause I can't help myself.)
If it is on GDP - I tend to not open OR read it thoroughly (cause I can't help myself.)
In the lounge - more than likely read it thoroughly (cause I can't help myself)
I just realized I have DU rubbernecker syndrome.
What about you?

Yeah, it's definitely a rubbernecker type of thing.
