I know that a huge percentage of human communication is trivial, neanderthal posturing and talking for the sake of talking .People who will never "get together" flirting for the hell of it, a lot of talk about the weather etc. From a purely intellectual point of view it doesn't make much sense. I think that's part of why some of us like it here, the fluff is there when you want it but most of the time we just talk real issues and a little smack.
