Politics, dating, anyone got a third topic where Lesswrong varies between being useless and immensely frustrating compared to the usual standards of discussion around here?
Well, mileage clearly varies, but I find these periodic superficial discussions about the nature of LessWrong to meet both criteria. Nothing really new gets said, and old stuff doesn’t get built on, just repeated at mind-numbing length.

Oooh, right, and discussions of how the rules for karma etc. should be changed! (probably falls under the same heading though)
