see, i rather enjoy it when a thread gets so hijacked, *without* the
subject changing, that i find i'm scanning threads titled "sharks"
for anime, and other threads titled "rationality" for further adios
and dvorak keyboard commentary...

i believe that with enough time and patience, every hijacked thread
will eventually come back to something related to the original
subject...

otaku. there, now you can skip the entire thread...

how long before we start a thread on role-playing games?

> But I didn't want to miss anything about sharks, see? :)

i'm still quietly surfing looking to see what all this has to do with
ham... still...

mmmmm...
