Do you know what one of my favorite pastimes is? That's going onto Yahoo answers and responding to all the conservatives on there. And the best part is is that they cant respond back to you! You should try it! It's fun!

1. You really need to get out more.

4. In my experience,
it's not helpful to offer unsolicited advice on discussion boards. It's presumptuous and creates an authoritarian atmosphere. In this case, I doubt you're in a position to know whether the OP is wheelchair-bound or otherwise unable to get out.

5. And just what is your experience?
The OP said:
"Do you know what one of my favorite pastimes is? That's
going onto Yahoo answers and responding to all the
conservatives on there. And the best part is is that they cant
respond back to you! You should try it! It's fun!"

The OP seems to be saying he enjoys tormenting those who
cannot respond.  My suggestion he get out more often is a
light-hearted way of saying that activity isn't really nice. 
Fun perhaps, but not nice.  Even if it is the case that he is
house-bound, that does not alleviate the need for a more
constructive form of recreation.

Which then leads me to ask you if you know for a fact the OP
is for some reason unable to get out?  If not, why on earth
would you assume such a thing?
