Okay DUers: What WON'T you argue about?
There are a number of weighty issues that inflame passions on the board. That's good. There's also a number of silly issues that inflame passions. What's on your list of topics that aren't worth arguing about?

3. Whether you put the roll of toilet paper under or over
That is truly one of the silliest reasons to argue ever.

26. I Know, Whenever I'm In Mixed Company It's All
ME: Motherfucking cocksucking sheepfucking Republicans can all go fuck a motherfucking meat grinder for all I fucking care!

EVERYBODY: We agree!

ME: Seriously, they can kiss my ass.

EVERYBODY: *gasp!* Such language!

12. Swedish fish.
I don't want to draw the Swedes' attention. Better if they don't know I'm on to them.

14. argue?..... topics that have no basis in reality are not worth any effort
There seem to be two main non entities, politics, it's amazing how many here still cling to the myth that there are elections in america.
Then the supernatural topics, but mostly religion as it appears to be the root of many of the probelms the world faces today.

There are plenty of real things that need discussion but there seems to be no point in proceeding with any discussion once people bring in the opinions of their imaginary friends.

16. Only minor things
Like who to vote for at elections.

Whether it was right to invade Iraq.

Whether we should let old-people starve to death if they didn't save enough money for themselves.


Important matters like Charlie Chaplin vs. Buster Keaton, feline creatures who may not be named, what sort of pie is best - these are the true subjects for arguments.
