I must say I like having an ‘open thread’ even though we can write posts on whatever. I routinely vote down posts that aren’t terribly interesting and downvote comments that are off-topic, so this seems like a good place to put things so that they don’t give you a huge karma hit just for existing. All of the comments that have popped up other places that say things like “This isn’t really the place to say this, but...” can just live here.
