I’m embarrassed to say that it took me a second there to “get” this pitting. ---

I confused, do you hate metal or like it? I’m not sure if I should pit you or pit you. ---

It’s not really within my understanding to know or not know whether Metallica is still together. Rock on, man. ---

I’m so confused. The first three threads in the pit concern metal. Is it a special day? Do I need a specially colored ribbon and name tag? ETA - holy shit it is alot more than three, and I can’t tell which one started it. Damn. So we are really replacing rape month and abortion month with metal? That seems like a nice change of pace though. ---

That seems like a nice change of pace though. I thought every month was rape month. Did something change? FWIW I _think_ [this](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=610740) is the first one and the rest are parodies. ---
