I really don't see why.
If people on this board preferred the way the /talk board operates, they'd be on the /talk board.

Yeah but/talk's full of cunts
This is well known everywhere in the world. Whereas /OT is... oh.

See now, I like witty banter, I like silly pictures.
The board, in theory, allows for both. If people are getting into trouble at work for looking at here rather than working perhaps they should trying more work and less internet.

Don't know what to tell you, it's just the way this board is.
You'll probably have noticed that it's now slowed right down on here, just as I said it would.

People just get annoyed. The pics of cats aren't funny and if I wanted cute I'd logon to Facebook and like some shit

Blimey.
There's some employers going to be wondering about a productivity spike today.

Yes, you are entirely correct with this moral point.
However you are not stupid.
You know that most people on here are at work, skiving.
You also know that, written explicitly in the rules or not, there is a board for images and a couple for text.
You are just enjoying the sport of arguing online.

Yes.
And this is a board where you can do both.
Personally I suspect I'd have gotten into a lot more trouble at work chucking at a joke about murdering black people than I would if I'd been caught looking at a silly image of a CDC.
I'd have been mocked MORE for the latter, mind.

I didn't think it was a joke about murdering black people.
Yes, there is the occasional 'edgy' or 'ironic' racist joke on here.
I'm pretty sure that none of the protagonists are actually racist - in my experience anyone posting genuinely racist views are rounded upon and treated with the contempt they deserve.
CDCs are rarely considered funny on here, this is the board of bitter misanthropy.
