Thread-Jack v.: To take over the content of a message thread by changing the subject of discourse to a topic outside the purview of the original subject and/or forum, while maintaining the subject line.
Thread-jacking happens, and while it may be rude, it is often fun. I find this practice at interminible odds with my sense of decorum, and yet, I often cannot help myself. "There are often side-topics that need exploration!" "There are people with opinions that I want to suss out!" "This will be funny"... The list of reasons is nearly as long as the number of trains we've derailed.
So, in that vein, here's a place to do so without moral retribution and in the spirit of fun. And perhaps we'll all get to know each other a little better in the process.
I, however, have no idea what the first topic shall be. Feel free to start by diverting attention away from my pondering.

I believe we should have a discourse on the savoury nature of cheese and other dairy-related products!
Now, who likes cheese?

Speaking of trains, do people like tea or coffee?

I'm fond of both, depending on mood. on the topic of rain, after the terrible storm in my home town i found this sign up a few days later. we ozarkians have a keen sense of humor Random signs are glorious. The best sign I've seen in a while was up in the southern teir of New York, and it said "Rose Bookays $10.00" |

I say, Joe it's jolly frightening out here.
Nonsense dear boy, you should be more like me.
But look at you! You're shaking all over!
Shaking? You silly goose! I'm just doing the Watusi

So, who has ever Thread-jacked before?

My own favourite sign I've ever seen is this:  And yes, I know it's only on a model  |

Persons intending to travel by open carriage should select a seat with their backs to the engine, by which means they will avoid the ashes emitted therefrom, that in travelling generally, but particularly through the tunnels, prove a great annoyance; the carriage farthest from the engine will in consequence be found the most desirable.
