Can we please start acting like rational human beings?

I wish there was one totally inane thread that was constant non-stop bantering, like an amazingly inane topic or something and it would be pages long and metaphysically cover everything possible in the universe and every post would make you chuckle ... one can only dream.

We had it.. then a mod got pissy and locked it.

It was called Spill Your Guts.

That's very unfair, and also inaccurate.
The SYG thread started to get used for other things than just talking about people. It became almost a spam-thread. This was not what it was created for. It was due to this, and some fairly heavy drama that the thread was locked. There was a warning given beforehand, if I recall, but it was ignored. You can't blame any mod for that. If the SYG were reopened today I have no doubt that the same sort of inane pointless drivel would spill over it like cheap beer, so it's probably better that it stays closed.

But enough with the cheap shots at mods, DWV. It wasn't one who got pissy: a lot of people agreed the thread was getting out of hand.

I guess we have a different interpretation of that thread.
