Yup.

But you'll miss the thrill of discovery, happysleeper: reading a topic, thinking it's "on-topic", when it is, in fact, utterly, gloriously, "off-topic".
And what if you discover that this OT post or thread is
brilliantly written, and it solicits your
rapt attention from beginning to end?
BTW, imho, there are no "off-topic" posts.
Imho,
everything is connected.
.But that's for another one of my nutty Signal Intelligence (SI) posts.

Wearyone, you can't be serious!
.Shirley, you're pulling our leg?
BTW, Senator, just one more thing:
love your avatar!

Just two hours alone with you in a locked windowless room, that's all I ask.
WearyOne wrote:On other things I’ll never change my mind or my beliefs.
The night is young, dear WearyOne.
.Give me the two hours, and I believe you'll stand a very good chance of coming to Jesus.

I think I'm in love with you, WearyOne.
.But where have been during
my threads?
WearyOne wrote:I was surprised, though, at the number of votes FOR banning OT threads.
Surprised and a just a tad disappointed, I trust.
WearyOne, I notice your location is Central Virginia.
.Virginia seems like a popular destination on this board.
.Is the condor an endangered species there?

Hi Vader!
.Good to see your nic. Love the avatar, has some real signal strength to it.
.I have a theory — yes, it's a bit nutty, but aren't all my "theories" a bit whack? - that this BB, by all appearances,
appears to be a Red State (RS) board, when, it is, quite possibly, another Nefarious Jewish Conspiracy (NJC) to make the great unwashed just
believe it's a BS board.
Vader, please be honest with me.
.Do you think I'm way off on this this?
.Too soon?
.Too soon?

I really like it, Uncle Bob: funny, to the point, and very comprehensive.
But being from NYC, home of the Broadway Theater Industry (BTI), I feel obligated to suggest — in addition to your comprehensive list, which I'll immediately adopt — just
three more categories:
OT
. : Off Topic
OOT : Off, Off Topic
OSS : One! Singular Sensation . . .
