I was going to make a poll about this but then I realized that you can only select one option for a poll, when for some users, there are several topics that they avoid. So, anyway, what topics do you try to avoid?

I personally avoid any topic relating to relationships,the apocalypse, aliens, conspiracy theories, and zombies. With some of these threads (mostly relationship), it's hard to avoid though because of the misleading titles ("I have a problem...") that eventually yield to a topic I wasn't expecting ("My girlfriend broke up with me.").

I wish there was a way you could label your topic when you create them under categories, sort of like how the blogs work, and that you could change your browsing preferences so you wouldn't be able to see topics in those other categories and won't be prone to click on them because of a vague and/or misleading title.

What about everyone else?

I usually avoid the huge debate (religion, politics, etc.) threads. There are too many of them and they just give me a headache. I have opinions and all, but I just don't feel the need to get all intense about it on here. I come here to relax. :P

Religious threads because all they do is go around in circles.

Political threads since i know nothing about American politics.

I hate those threads when they become quote tunnels because it makes it hard to read. I'll try to pick out a few things here and there and try to start a new, smaller quote tunnel to debate from, but it makes it really hard. Generally, I lose interest in those debates.

I avoid religious and political threads like the plague. I can't STAND them. The threads I levitate to are the threads dealing with music since I love music (especially Hip-Hop).
