laughing out loud

Is it just me, or does anyone else find it hard to read some of these posts without laughing. wondering if these people are tring to be serious.or just joking. dont get me wrong alot have been really good post for discussions of thought. there is others thou that seem to be preaching. i havent decided if they are tring to convinse themselves or others. then some that seem to make no point at all. i guess they are talking to themself.    I guess this post is just my curiosity of  whether im alone in this  or not.  I know it seems to come off  a bit smug.
