Thread Name: BS: Mudcat - how did you get here?
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat - how did you get here?
Sorry BillD, but there just ain't any Karelian, Tejano, zydeco music stuff around here, or near enough l'esprit de joie, not to mention new grass or new folk to keep me interested for long. That isn't the forum's fault, it's just the way it is.

I find the majoritarian (above the BS line) Britfolk and their Anglo American Britfolk "purist" wannabes to be tiresomely arrogant and stuck up as hell.

Below the line, people are nasty, cantankerous, rude, and obnoxious, yet believe themselves to be kind, generous, and for some bizarre reason, quite clever and entertaining in an Adam Sandler/American Pie sort of way, I guess. I dunno. I've just never understood the attraction factor of this place, or taken to the people here, which is why I come and go as a guest and never bothered to join as a member. Generally I come here out of boredom, and my two decade long habit of surfing the same folk sites to kill time. Not because there are fabulous people talking about fascinating things. It's a nasty bad habit, is all.

Maybe I'll make a later NY resolution to swear the place off. Maybe not.
