well, something I've noticed here in the MB, (and I'm just as responsible for it as the next aphex fan here) is that threads get hijacked quite easily here. You read a topic name, like "best sock style that richard d james wears" and you read the thread and after 7 posts, people are talking about the weather in tallahassee or how close people live to graveyards, or something WAY off like that. (I'm just pulling things outta my head at my fancy). There are no accusations or angry feelings in this post, simply observations.

the topic usually gets back on track eventually, as soon as someone wants to discuss the name of the topic.
Still, I would authorize a sizable grant for research into this new disturbing trend of "thread hijacking" ;-)

eh... i guess that just means the original topic just wasnt interesting enough to keep everones attention...and even if it was..conversations just tend to meander
its always been like that for me anyways...my friend and i were considering bringing a dat recorder to school or something at some point to record some of the conversations that go on there...starting off normal enough...and usually evolving into completely unrelated (and often unspeakable) topics

I like Caramilk Bars, but I think I have a cavity, because it stung my tooth to eat one earlier today.

Seriously though, threads do change, as does a conversation. One moment you are talking about something and before you know it, you're talking about something completely different - its natural. And as XLR said, usually you end up talking about the original topic of conversation anyway!

xlr is right, wayout..."caramello" was "check it out (out out) - Caramello" I think that it was, anyway.
