tell me something folks...when you go to a restaurant, and read the menu....do you place an order for what you want, or do you bore the waitress to tears bitching about stuff on the menu that you don't like to eat??

actually, it is you. reading 2 posts trying to get things back into the same universe of what this thread was about is quite different than wading through 2 pages of NASCAR posts.
in the grand scheme of things, yeah, off topic posts are pretty unimportant (like I said, that was the first time in over a decade i've made such a post).
however, in response to both you and the person who said i should skip those posts, that's pretty much what i did. unlike you though, i am unable to tell what a post contains without at least reading part of the post to determine what's inside.
two pages of reading about nascar boyfriends, even just partially reading about nascar boyfriends, was cruel and beyond what any rational person can withstand without getting at least annoyed.
danzig, if you could please use a better analogy next time you try to make a point, that would be just terrific. the waitress thing was cute, but pretty dissimiliar to excessive off topic nascar posts.
also, if you could enlighten me please as to how you know which posts are off topic without looking at them, i would be most appreciative!!
