I think of these threads just like that.
Its like a GT, but spread over a few weeks/months. The US political discussion thread is a prime example. Train wreck after train wreck, either its the candidates or the people discussing them going off the deep end like they have suffered a psychotic break. I don't think I could care less about who wins the Republican nomination, but I never miss that thread.
