(in no particular order)
1. At any given time, hundreds of people are feeling joy, pain, humor, outrage, annoyance, sympathy, empathy, disgust, lust, satisfaction, comraderie...all at once. Who needs therapy?
2. I can decide what to wear, what to have for dinner, find out about current events, have a laugh or two, make new friends, catch up on current gossip, and watch two (or more) people duke it out, all in one fell swoop, just by logging in.
3. There's a wide variety of topics, and they don't generally overlap, which means I can choose to steer clear of things I find objectionable and enjoy myself, as can just about everyone else, regardless of interest or orientation.
4. People, in general, get along (outside of Hyde Park ), and when there are disagreements, either people agree to disagree and they handle the issues in a mature way, or the mods are quick to put an end to it, leaving the rest of the board in relative peace.
5. I can reach out and find someone who understands what I'm going through and will lend a shoulder.
6. We are always eager to share each others celebrations and griefs.
7. We have excellent moderators who try very hard to ensure that respect and fairness are maintained.
Your turn.
