The Off-Topic Compilation Thread

While the question has been sorta answered in a round-about way..

What I mean by off-topic is... it's... not on topic. Regardless of where the topic happens to be in the forums.
But the threshold for what's off-topic shall be high. Half-ass litmus tests for this can be devised simply by moving the posts and no-one except the members who posted them will complain about it.
That means you have only bruised an ego or two, but have been justified by everyone else. That wins more. Until people start objecting for no reason, which results in them getting banned for a week, or having a really disgusting mandatory avatar. Pity.
