> Sometimes a pit thread about a sandwich belongs in MPSIMS, and sometimes it belongs in the Pit. The subject itself isn’t the point, it’s the tone; if it’s “Man, screw you, sandwich, you’re just so delicious” or “This sandwich kinda sucked” it’s off to MPSIMS, if it’s “fuck this goat-felching sandwich and send its evil creators back to Hell” then probably the Pit is best.

Thanks for your answer, **fluiddruid**. I respectfully disagree. A lot of times, the subject IS what makes it a MPSIMS thread, and not a Pit, IMO. Merely adding “goat-felching” to the post shouldn’t qualify. What could possibly BE more mundane and pointless than somebody else’s lunch?
