Broadwayworld, What Happened To The Laughter?#1
Posted: 4/30/16 at 11:20am

Although I still enjoy coming to this site for specific information on shows and reading poster's experiences, I wonder what happened to the fun of Broadwayworld? One of the things I always looked forward to was that someone would write a post that would make me laugh out loud. I could always count on Namo and Phyllis to provide me with at least a daily chuckle or laugh out loud moment. Yes, they had their faults, but both were witty and at times hysterical with their responses. Hatorobics/Jeff, where are you? Your responses to posts would almost always make me laugh or at least put a smile on my face. Even Jordan, although still posting, just doesn't seem to be his funny self. This thread will probably not stay for long. Just wanted to say, Broadwayworld, what happened to you? You're just not as fun as you used to be.

I didn't realize you were speaking French. Now that was funny.

It decided not to get involved anymore and is now a disinterested observer on the sidelines.

I blame it on an a really crappy season of Project Runway All Stars.

It is because Gordon Ramsey hardly ever said rubbery scallops on Hell's Kitchen this season. Come on mate. Get with it

Aww, thanks. I'm on here less since I left NYC in December, so the ability to not see as much theater makes being constantly up to date less important. The rest left during Muringate, although Namo is now in exile on Twitter, and still reads BWW, just doesn't post here. You can get his twitter through PM on here, unless that is something I'm supposed to post wherever?! Not sure, heh.

I'm assuming he won't. He doesn't seem to be the type to back down (not that he should). Broadwayworld, What Happened To The Laughter?

Some are missed. Others...not so much.

I hung out with Cheyenne Jackson in his dressing room waayyyyyy before he tickled D2.

"I could always count on Namo and Phyllis to provide me with at least a daily chuckle or laugh out loud moment"

Then you must love harassment, threats, verbal abuse, horrible language, accusations and stalking. I was delighted when Patti Murin chased the worst people on this site away. Well, not all of them. A few awful ones are left but they know how to actually behave now, or they will get suspended. This is a wonderful site now.

What I remember about namo is that he was forever highjacking threads by instigating petty, personal, lengthy arguments. And if he disagreed with your opinion, you were an idiot or worse. I never found his "I don't play nice with others" shtick especially funny, just tiresome.
