I've made a resolution today...
...to stop whining about QOTWs that aren't to my taste, relevant to my life experiences or just a bit shit like the puns one. See, I'm doing it again :/

I was about to post a whinge in this week's 'turning into my parents' QOTW and then realised: I fucking hate it when folk do this - indeed, I've often be the first with the STFU when another has and now I'm doing it myself. I'm letting my fellow posters down, I'm letting my school down (which if you'd been to my school, you'd know takes some fucking doing) but most of all I'm letting myself down and representing myself as a hypocritical tosser.

So, today I pledge; no more. If I don't like a given QOTW then I'll keep my mouth shut. Retroactive apologies go out to those QOTWs and QOTW choosers whom I've slated in recent weeks. I'm much better now.

To seal this pledge I'll at least try to add something relevant to this week's one, but it'll likely be brief and slightly wank.

I too
may have said nasty things about QOTW in the past.

I didn't mean it. I love you really.

Well done you.
Nobody likes a whinger.

I've tried to hold off on similar grounds, of late
No-one is obliged to read the questions or the answers, and B3ta exists purely due to the altruistic benevolence of its founders. The persistent 'this question's shit' whining smacks somewhat of 'god I HATE school/parents/whatever SO MUCH' teenage bollocks and is faintly embarrassing on that basis.

I make an exception, however, for the Mix Tapes question. That was really, really shit.

It's worth holding off...
We've had some recently that sounded shite on the face of it, but milk still squirts out of my nose when I read the 'Best Of' page.

Wouldn't normally have worried, but I wasn't drinking any milk at the time.

*sniff*

I've been teased all my life over my firm, supple, pert titnose. I thought I'd left all the beatings behind at school, but you had to bring it all up again. You BEAST!

I have a lovely joke that ends with the punchline
"You've let your mum down, you've let your dad down, but most of all you've let yourself down" but now I've told you the punchline it probably won't be funny. It was about a balloon family.

Good on ya!
DiT said it well. But no matter how bad a QOTW can be, there's always someone who can come along and write a good and entertaining answer. However, the opposite is true. In good QOTWs like pointless experiments, there was a flood of answers about blowing things up and mixing food/drinks.

Here's to the turd-polishers of QOTW!
