Politics - I'm not in the US, and while I have concerns over the possible result of the Presidential election, I have been told in the past that 'you're not American, so you don't matter' Many TV shows - especially reality shows, as I don't get many of them here, and I wouldn't watch them if I did US travel Tipping - the tipping culture here is so different to what it is in the US School stuff - again, different system, and my kids are well past school aged. Anything that is very country specific - which car would you buy, shopping threads - just not relevant, or I can't contribute anything relevant.

Political threads (rarely) Celebrity threads TV shows I don't watch Threads by certain people Diagnose me threads TMI threads Birthday threads (sometimes) There's probably more but those are the obvious ones for me. What's for dinner? Everytime I see them I think "do you people really cook every single day?" I cook maybe 3 times a week and even then I don't enjoy it. lol - Well, maybe not every single day, but most... sometimes some of us do takeout, or leftovers, or eat out, but we pretty much have something for dinner every day. And we chit-chat in that thread too. ETA: Threads that cut off the whole title as they want to lure you in... oh lord yes - how could I forget that one! I find them annoying.

I usually skip by:
school including extra school activities and prom(unless it is a photo), kids in general, mama brags pets (unless photo) sports Disney travel reading, Netflix, tv, movies, cable, streaming child/animal abuse moving, buying/selling houses politics renovations vegan any that are just a link
I will look at the preview and if I don't think it will interest me I pass on by.
But I am glad people post these and other people who read them. If there were only things that interested me it would not be a very busy board.

What's for dinner? Everytime I see them I think "do you people really cook every single day?" I cook maybe 3 times a week and even then I don't enjoy it. I cook nearly every day. I don't necessarily enjoy it, but we eat home cooked dinner at least 5 times a week, often more. Weekends, DH tends to take over, and he does enjoy it.

We don't like to go out to restaurants all that often -- too loud, I make bad choices, and I'm basically a cheapskate. I save restaurants for something I'm not good at cooking (seafood) and special occasions where we go somewhere super nice.

It depends on my mood. But generalising, I'd say: - a lot of political threads - meal threads - celebrity threads

I will not open the threads about Clowns Spiders Or j___y d___y. I feel if I open and read this type if thread I will be jinx and then get s____n. What threads won't you open? I open just about everything but there's a lot I never read past the original post like the pressure cooker ones. I don't read them but I do bookmark them since I want to get a pressure cooker in the near future. Same with the travel ones, if it's a place on my bucket list then I bookmark it but don't read.

It's not the eating at home part I find dismaying. It's the cooking part. I just tell the family to find some food and everyone does.

Posts by certain Peas Political threads ....they are so redundant, the same BS over and over Birthday threads Thrifting threads Quilting/crochet threads Dinner threads Vegan threads Pressure cooking threads do you see a trend there...I'm not fond of cooking or food at all for the most part Threads posted simply to inflame the audience and quickly close any thread that is just a link

Political threads Certain pea's threads YUP..that's me. There's one pea whose thread I'll never open and since someone showed me how to block/hide that person when they start a thread..It's all good.

I think I'll open almost any topic thread if I have lots of time on my hands, and am in the mood.
Often, I misread the title and am surprised when I DO open the thread.

I don't generally open the vent or griping posts. There is enough negativity in the world, I won't seek more out.

Post away! (Me? I tend to open any non-American-topic thread just 'cause I learn new information or perspectives. I really like the mix of familiar and unfamiliar topics here, and the mix of US and international members.)

I only read on my phone using tapatalk so it's always a mystery to me who started a thread. However, once I open it up and see who started the thread I may not proceed further if it's a select few peas. I just know from experience that the thread is not for me. I skip the political threads. When I do open one its always a reminder why I skip them. As much as I want to shake most PVM posters, I can't resist reading to see if anyone agrees with me. I'm rarely on the validate bench.

Political threads -- man, those go south quickly and in SUCH predictable ways. Same shit, different day. Birthday threads. Click for the animals. Yarn, most sewing, and some other crafts. Most TV threads. Most 'vote for' threads
And a lot of others that I just don't open. Or I open, scan a little, and leave as it's not relevant for me.
I have no one blocked. I like the diversity and the vast differences of opinion for the most part.

Political threads. Diagnose me threads. Threads that are posted to be argumentative, put people down, or rude. Threads where the poster doesn't say what the thread is about in the title, i.e. "Would you ever...." Etc. people, give us a clue what it's about, you'll probably get a lot more input that way!

I have no one blocked. I like the diversity and the vast differences of opinion for the most part. I get plenty of diversity in opinions despite blocking a few people. It's like would you invite Trump to dinner every night? I chose not waste my time on people who are always unhappy, angry, or crazy.

I have no rules
If I have the time and I'm feelin nosy I'll read pretty much any thread.
But there are times when I open a thread and just go right back out. Not feeling it, not ready to think, or whatever.
