It annoys me because people bickering in one thread often finds its way into others. I am not biased against political threads. I am biased against people acting like idiots and making fun of each other. For some reason these two things can't be mutually exclusive. My truce with those who like to argue politics and current events was to ignore that forum, and I did also ignore those few threads in GC about these things, but since this is all out in the open I thought I'd say my piece.
