There are lots of threads for fun and fluff, and lots of threads for chitchatting with friends, keep it out of a serious thread.

Serious conversations do not require a commercial break.

I see where you are coming from in wanting to stay on topic but it feels almost as if those who use humor to cope with issues in their lives shouldn't post in a serious thread then. Because we are going to crack a joke or throw a zinger in there to let some of the tension out of the 'room'.

I do stay out of a lot of serious threads and/or just post once and unsubscribe afterward because I know my way of talking and doing things isn't always welcome. But for those that touch on a nerve for me, I'll brave the criticism if I do see fit to make a joke or try to lighten things up if they feel heavy and suffocating to me.

Derails can sometimes be really interesting conversations. And can be an ice breaker if needed. The derails I dont like are those where people get into a banter back and forth that becomes heated and not really productive to the thread. I tend to just redirect to the original subject and move on but it is frustrating sometimes.

You can get your point across and then let it go. When a question is answered.... its answered... let it go!! But then again, some people just cant let it go.... :shithappens: LET IT GO!!! LOL... that is all...

Derail warning

I have a friend and coworker who are Gemini's so... um, yep. I'll have to ask them if they consider it a charm ;)
