Let's try this! What do you guys think about having a single thread for off-topic discussion between UI&M regulars? It would reduce (though, hopefully not eliminate) the derailing and give us a way to talk about stuff we just want to discuss between us without having to move it to forums that I (and possibly others of you) don't even visit at all.
No I didn't just copy pelf's text from the dr00d forums
:D

I'm gonna say that they'll probably go with it. There's a similar thing in the Hunter forum and now one in the Druid forum. It's really the only way to have localized OT discussion.
Now, you need to come up with a good name. Derailleurs is the Druid name
:)
. No stealing.

How about instead of Fonlithien or Derailleurs, we call the UI&M off topic thread "The IT Department?"

How about we honor the ridiculously awesome British TV series and call it
The IT Crowd
. I can get behind that.
EDIT
: Oh look, sticky.

It's done! Both name and sticky

With the inaugural first real post after deciding we now have a name and a sticky, I'd like to point out that my wife is sleeping 4 feet away from me while I blare Dethklok on my laptop. I have no idea how she does it.
Edit: And for laughs, Wiki could change the title of the thread occasionally to something like "All other forums suck and this sticky proves it."

To continue with more OT,
I just finished watching Black Hawk Down, @20gb/1080p. Some frames weren't too smooth
:/
I guess my graphics couldn't handle it
:(

this I approve of.
also, it's a swedish idea, which means we swedes are the cleverest of UI&M
GO SWEDEN

Yeah! Maybe I should change the first post to our national anthem instead...

I'm sure that's fallacious, but I don't know my fallacies all that well. Fallacy of Sweeping Generalization, maybe?

We should derail this thread by talking about UIs.
