Bears Eat Monkey In Front of ZOO Visitors.LOL

vs.

Bears Eat Monkey in Front of Zoo Visitors



I'm personally feeling the sympathy towards the monkey afforded by Dook's omission of a 'LOL', but I'm sure you'll have your own opinions. nod

As someone who tries to refrain from using emoticons, I like the header without the 'lol'. The interpretation is left to the reader, as it should be.

i personally prefer the non-dook thread because for a while, the discussion veered from the topic and became about me.

Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.

Damn site. mad This is important.


So did the use of 'ZOO' rather than 'zoo' factor into your thinking at all?

I agree, u2prnce, that the 'LOL' was being used to coerce people into finding humour in a story that was anything but. I'm sure the bear people around here will get on my back, but I stand by everything I say.

as far as titles i give it to the lol one. as for context i'd have to give it to the one minus the lol in the title. smile

Thank you for a well thought out answer, although I must say I disagree that the 'lol' one is superior in any way. Each to his own though. No hard feelings man. hug

I have to vote for the non-lol thread. Pook's post made that one worthwhile. thumbs up!

Wow, opinion is fiercely divided, which all speaks to it being a hotly debated topic. Good call on the survivor thread, Fauxie. nod
