But people actually like those things. College Football and Video Games notwithstanding.

Omg the cats thread. Get rid of it. The dogs thread too. The political threads can go. I'd be good if the music video thread wasn't stickied and the gif thread slows my phone down. I dont much care for wrestling or the nfl or nba. And ffs, peopletalking about pith and being a woman if u dont drink bourbon neat...meh...I can do ww/o that. Fancy beers ill never drink because they cost 2 bucks a pop? Please. And on and on and on. All this information is silly and I dont wanna read what other people think.

I like getting insight from reliable sources on things like beer, sports, movies, sandwiches... and yes, even disasters and news events like Ferguson - even when it's semi-anonymous Cardinal fans.

We had Swirls educating us on Japan's nuclear power plant. Arnie would report in from Israel. I could go on. Seeing the world through the prism of Cardinal fans - which is kind of strange, but good.

I found it interesting when Luke mentioned in Ferguson thread his being at scene (two times)where guys ended up dead while police were handling them, and scarcely was noticed. Though that may make an argument for locking the thread, when we just want to hear our own opinions based on regurgitations from "news" outlets, rather than listen/learn from actual experience.

I understand what Molly is saying, and to be honest it is not my favorite thread, mostly due to moderation reasons but at the end of the day if you're not interested in it you don't have to click on it.
