Animal rescue, fitness/diet, help me with contest/voting, threads that seem sad or mention abuse/loss, celeb deaths- or really anything about celebs unless I really Like that person, and some shows I don't watch. I say some because others I do open out of curiosity and that's why I know a lot about things I don't even watch! Haha
Sometimes I don't open threads of I can't tell from the title what it will be about and then if I get bored later I do open it and find out it was interesting!

Same as a lot of other people..... Reality TV show threads (Big Brother, RHONY, SYTYCD etc) Things that are very specific to US Peas eg. Who owns a xxx car? Threads by certain people (unless they get to 4+ pages, then I want to see what shit has gone down)

Threads by certain people. (Yes I admit it) What's for dinner? Titles that imply a subject I know nothing or have no interest in.
It's hit or miss on the phone for some threads. If I see one that is new and is already a few pages, I might open it out of curiosity.
It's almost guaranteed if it says "fluff," I'll open it.

Sad threads. Most times I just don't want to think about something sad, but then once in a while I think that someone could just use a little comfort or to be heard and I'll open it and say something. Then I'm left feeling like nothing I could possibly say will help.

TMI threads, especially if they say a picture is inside. Gross!
Political threads
Happy Birthday
Diagnose me. I don't care to play pretend doctor.
Share a picture threads.
Threads started by certain Peas.

I use a mobile site so I never know who creates the thread until after I open it. I wonder how many of the same peas are on the same lists? I don't do political threads, garage/thrift finds (I'm jealous of all the good loot!) or pet threads.

Threads that have *warning* or TMI in the title. I learned that one the hard way.
Other than that, I'll open pretty much anything, depending on my mood and level of boredom. There's nothing better than a 7-page sh@t show to lift my spirits!

For those who won't open the birthday threads, but have your birthday listed in your profile, do you at least open it on your birthday to see your name, who's sending you birthday wishes, what the cake is that day or for some reason that might interest you that day?

Birthday Political Reality tv especially Kardashian or housewives Knitting. Although I wish I could Threads started by whiny peas Threads started by mean peas Threads started by peas who constantly rag on the same subjects, like a dog with a bone
I don't mind the links to articles, often they are interesting and then a good discussion ensues I have an interest in medical subjects so tmi or diagnose me are ok Brag threads are often a way to share someone's good news I find wwtpd, vents, was I wrong, ect interesting. Because there are so many opinions.

I don't really have any specific threads that I don't open and it depends on my time. I'll generally avoid anything specifically US related like sport or TV and since I don't have children I don't tend to open anything school related. Once a thread reaches 5 pages I'll open no matter what, unless it's about Donald Trump!

I have no idea what date I put in my profile. Wasn't it a mandatory thing that had to be filled in? I think I just randomly chose a date, so I really have no idea when I would open it. I do ignore the birthday threads. I also ignore threads by certain peas, most TV shows, and others that I can't think of off the top of my head. I'll open anything that seems interesting, but I rarely reply because I just don't care most of the time.

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. I use Tapatalk too and it always has the name of the pea showing in orange above the title of the thread. Thank goodness because there are several peas I don't care to read at all! I don't open political threads and posts on reality tv shows. I also won't read anything about homeschooling because as a parent who homeschooled two sons I get too angry over the judgements that inevitably come from anti-homeschool know-it-alls. (See, that's a really hot topic, button pusher for me! )

No, because I didn't put my real bday on my profile and I assume most people don't.

Then I'm left feeling like nothing I could possibly say will help. I like to offer people compassion if they are going through a hard time. However there are a few people who use the board as their diary, weekly essay length updates on their problems, I have to wonder if they have any real friends or family to confide in? Those threads I don't open and then a year later they might refer to it and everyone knows them but I'm left in the dark but realize that person has posted way too many threads for me to ask what their issue was.

I'll open any threads but sometimes I don't make it through the OP before I close it.
I love the threads by "those Peas". I crack up watching their heads explode when they can't force everyone to believe what they do. Pure entertainment!

I'm another one that doesn't open threads by a couple of peas. But sometimes I do get curious and will open them when they get to multiple pages. TV shows I don't watch, unless it's by someone that usually watches similar shows as I do, then I might check it out to see if I should be watching. But I don't watch GOT, TWD or reality shows so I never open those threads If I'm at work I won't open a death thread, pet or people. I don't like crying at work. I love the birthday threads, but can't see the pictures on my work computer, so I don't always open them. But I do open them the week around my birthday or sometimes on one of my siblings or child's birthday. I think they are great threads and always happy

I love the preview button!!! It makes me happy!
I definitely watch for 2 or 3 peas who I think are seriously unhinged. I don't open their threads. Others I may disagree with don't bother me. I'll open a political thread with which I don't agree to see what the other side thinks. It doesn't hurt to have more information.
Mostly, it depends on the time I have!

Everyone is free to do as they please about their birthday.
