AIBU threads

Every time I start an AIBU thread (which I know I shouldn't really) there are always a number of people who come on and say "god how can you even worry about something so trivial" "how can you get upset about this"

The thing is, quite often I am not actually that upset or worked up about the issue, it's more a case of debating/canvassing opinions. So what I'm saying is AIBU to think that starting an AIBU thread shouldn't necessarily elicit these responses?

surely that is the whole point of the AIBU threads? everyone gives their take on it, and very often they tend to show a majority view.....

and you are more likely to get a black and white answer with AIBU as the answers are YABU or YANBU.. so YABU

I think !
