You're going to have to make up your mind:

Thread hijacking is a proud tradition here. Some of the best threads end up going on for pages after the original subject has been deserted. Most of us can have a conversation without clear demarcations of subject.

It's not your thread anyway.

Your words, not mine.

Have a happy day! 1.gif

Those two statements aren't contradictory in any way.

Maybe not if you used the term thread "enrichment" or thread "diversity" rather than "hijack".

Just my opinion, you did say this was a poll didn't you?

You've got a friend in California,

"Off topic" is tricky. Most folks agree that politics and religion do not belong on this forum. Most folks seem to also agree that off topic (non-audio) threads belong in general questions on this board. After you clear those hurdles, threads should usually go wherever the participants mutually choose.

The down side to open ended audio discussion is that when a total reversal of direction takes place, it is usually followed by a camplaint that the thread has been hijacked.

Lucky duck, Alias don't start here in LA until 9pm. I know Elektra is gonna be a total disaster, but I'm contemplating seeing it just in the hopes that Garner might show some skin.

That reminds me of the seventies. I was in the diner and this acid freak was stuffing his mouth with mashed potatos and then squeezing his cheeks with his hands. The waitress asked him "What are you doing?" he said "Man I'm a pimple!"

You can stop groaning now it's an old joke suitable for mixed company.2.gif

That joke is older than Amimal House. I must have first heard it well over fourty years ago as a "Beatnic was...." As a matter of fact old Walter "Salty" Brien told it on his AM radio show back circa 1960.
