It's never just a post that actually starts or builds on the conversation they want to have that people can then use to add to that conversation (which people do all the time, successfully), it's always "Stop talking about that subject/Start talking about this subject" without giving any actual reason to stop/start a different conversation.
See it allllll the time in the Trades thread on FOI ("So... any trades??"), and see it occasionally in Off Topic as well.
Strange every time. Fascinating. And not something I recall seeing on any other social media platform.

I suppose this post is permitted in the random thought thread, but, like, there is some irony here.
Would you like to talk about this, though? We can, man.
