I prefer frivolous threads that have a topic that I can deviate from.  This is why I have never posted in the "Random Comment" thread.  My comments may quite often be off topic but they are never random. 

 In reality, nothing is random.

 Exactly.

 I concur.

And now for something completely different.

Yo momma.

When did throwing a dead octopus onto the ice become part of hockey?

 This started on April 15, 1952 in Detroit during the Red Wings' Stanley Cup run.

(Google is my friend.)

Edit:  It was symbolic of the 8 wins needed to win the Stanley Cup at the time.

Go Gators! :)

Oh cool!  I've always wanted to be part of a rebellion!!!

This thread is not sufficiently off topic.

Consider this your warning.

Could we change the subject now?

rebellion, bah, smells like a reckoning to me

Leave it to bagga to change the rules.
