Hey bite me! It is a sad day in America where Magnum PI is considered mundane and pointless while even stupider thread like these are still around. I asked a simple question and got a simple answer, that thread belongs here. Allow me to point out threads that belong in MPSIMS much more so than my question A thread about whether horses are competitive by nature or not [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=25195](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=25195) A thread about the Simpsons/Coast Guard link [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=25132](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=25132) A thread about apartment 13 [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=24775](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=24775) And my favorite a thread about the name of those things on the ends of shoelaces [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=25222](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=25222) Could you please explain what makes my thread mundane while these other far stupider threads are allowed to remain? I mean you complain about moving my threads but there seems to be no rhyme nor reason to it.
