When people start using "very big and complex" words which only help in sidetracking the masses.
- When we see the same old recycled threads guised in different headers.
- some of the side-tracking is inevitable, but it's a shame when a weighty thread goes to the gutters bcoz of petty feuding and personal vendettas..
- suggest people put in a little more thought b4 posting to minimise these incidences.

hai! I needed a dictionary to decipher Pezoh's vocab :)
Ofcourse a discussion happens when people add there own opinions even if they don't agree, and mashada is entertainment but that's not the same as taking the most irrelevant detail from a post and turning it into the point of discussion or disagreement. I think this is a reflection of 'real life' interactions seeing as Kenyans have to fight at social gatherings.
Another observation- the threads that do stay on topic are the ones involving 'name your favourite song' 'when is your birthday' etc, but let it be something else and mara people become golddiggers etc. N'ways, TGIF

MissK, kwani when you vibe your friends, the topic that began the setting is the same one that ends it?

lol

hehehe! The best line since yesterdays by Politician and I quote:

++++++++++++++
Moi is not known for his eloquence, he may pale in comparion to Mboya as far as speeches are concerned, but speeches dont rule nations, political strategy does. In politics, we deal with what is - not what ought to be. Keep it up Mr Odinga.
+++++++++++++++

Sometimes the most profound can be said in the simplest words.

I'm impressed.

Teh difference between vibing friends and diverging into unrelated crap is that here, you are not sitting in a bar carelessly saying whatever comes to mind (you have scratchpad for that), there are clearly set topics for discusion and you can choose which 'conversation' to join and noone is obliged to participate.
twist, what does that quote of yours have to do with anything? you see what I'm talking about?
