There's some personal stuff I need advice on. However, I don't want to post it here on Oppo, as it's extremely off-topic.
Here's a car with a Doctor Who reference on it.

Either wait for someone in this thread who can help, or... go on CL and ask for help and wait again. Lol.

done.

Well, you know what I mean. It's a little too personal to be posted here. Hopefully it'll be more accepted in CL.

I'm just kidding. I often wonder about stuff I post and then I see what others have posted . . .

One of the points of Keep Oppo Weird, from the earliest days, was to keep Oppo from having a topic by promoting general ADHD and confusion. We're more consistently on topic "car" than we used to be.

I'm not complaining. I like the mix. It is an editorial stance that is both coherent and undefinable.

Honestly, I wish Oppo would be a bit more off topic than it has become. I'm contemplating a series of "Keep Oppo Off Topic" posts.

Only one way to make something happen. Do it yourself!

I almost regret that LaLD moved out, to say nothing of Animelopnik and others.

WHOOOOOOOO *puts on mod hat* Look at me modding this place (err..that place)

And much of Planelopnik. It's the compartmentalization that comes along with Kinja. With hashtags, everybody shared everything here, and it was cool. Now it's 90% about cars, and people apologize when they post something non-car related. I always tell them not to apologize. I think Cigar Lounge is a great idea, because it gives people a place for super non-car related stuff, political rants, etc. But general weirdness that the community might enjoy needs to stay in Oppo.

True! Please see my reply to RamblinRover. I think that a lot of the loss of interesting, off-topic content is a result of Kinja.

I certainly don't bother to confine myself to car posts, but at the same time, some of us spend enough effort reposting car news site blurbs it makes it almost a topic Reddit around here sometimes. Which... there's an Oppo reddit. Seriously? Go, my son, and post there. Meanwhile, here, more #beerlopnik, more #planelopnik, more #trainlopnik, more #movielopnik, more keeping up with busness, etc. - things need to be a mix.

Hey, can you hook me up with some authorship, too, while you're at it? Please? With a bunch of cherries on top? ;)

What's funny about "off topic" is that there's not supposed to be a topic in the first place.
Tomorrow, I'm launching a new tag: KOOT. Keep Oppo Off Topic. It doesn't mean that we turn this into Facebook. But there have been too many car posts lately. We're in danger of getting stodgy.
