The "You really mustn't derail this thread" thread.

[Minimalist]

@ c172 I agree, okay so the old lady and the young man are joining is in the discussion, I'm glad you agree that this topic about not derailing this topic is a great topic, so what do you have to say on this quite excellent topic?

@ Min:

No mod hat on it's hardly derailed so far, but I really ought to insist that you please don't derail this thread Min, surely you can understand that that matters in this thread as much as any other...?

Unless somehow that image was amusingly related to this topic and not actually a derail despite it saying so, if so, how was it?

I think it's really important that this thread isn't derailed. Let's talk about that.

Maaaaayooooo maaaayooooo, sandwich come and they want mayo. 6 top, 7 top, 8 top LUNCH! Sandwich come and they want mayo.

Anyone who's ever worked wait staff or buser, will get the "6 top, 7 top, 8 top" reference.

I don't get the reference, please do explain how this is all so relevant to this extremely important topic. It's vital that we stay on this topic about how it's vital that we stay on topic.

I disagree, we can get back on topic, it has been done before, sometimes derails get back on topic despite the fact that they often derail again... at the very least we ought to try out damndest to talk about why this important topic about not derailing this important topic is important... but not just the why it is, it's also relevant to the topic if we simply exclaim emotionally or agree that it's important that this topic about the importance of not derailing this topic is important.

Let's talk about the why and the how, but also let's talk about the that... I mean wow, seriously isn't this important and awesome? We must not derail this topic, because like any other topic, a derail is a derail and the purpose of this topic is to not derail it, the fact the subject of the topic is that we must not derail it doesn't make a derail any less of a derail! I mean, why would it? Well, it wouldn't, rhetorical question.

I won't derail this thread and would never do so if requested not to...



...until I get bored enough and decide to do it anyway.

Oh come on that's no excuse. But at the very least let's stay on topic, so, what do you have to say on this topic?

I think something relevant to the fact that we mustn't derail this topic is the following statement: I think something relevant to the fact that we mustn't derail this topic is the previous statement that ends in a colon leading to this statement.

I'm glad you've finally said something relevant to the topic, I trust everyone else sees the relevance.

If you doubt that they do, perhaps you can explain to them the relevance to this topic that that video has?

[Edwardo Piet]

Come on folks, this is an important topic... let's not let this thread die... seriously, who here agrees that this topic is important and musn't be derailed? Read the OP if you must remind yourself about how epic this topic is, surely it's epic and not totally fucktardderderdid?

P.S. No derails.

P.P.S. No derails

P.P.P.S. Surely there's no reason why the "P.S." cannot be the same as the "P.P.S.", I men I'm emphasizing here, let's stay on topic: "This topic mustn't be derailed" is an interesting topic, right? Let's not derail it.

Not to derail in the slightest, but last night for tea I had veggie patties with Peri Peri Mayo.
Spectacular! It comes in regular, mild and hot!
I bought the mild. Not saying I can't handle the hot stuff, alright!

(I just don't appreciate the hot stuff scorching my ringer on the way out!)

EDIT: The above statement is an example of what not to post as it will derail this thread!

[Edwardo Piet]

Oh that's interesting, I've had Peri Peri sauce (which I love but never mayo)

Fuck, okay that was off-topic of me, not wanting to be hypocritical...

Oh, it's fine so long as I make my next statement within this same post relevant to the topic at hand, right?

I think it's very important that this thread shouldn't be derailed.

(Who said that the above ^^^ had to me original or non-repetitive? I've said it before many times in this thread, but I'm being emphatic, and I'm still on topic... I don't mean to be so unoriginal... I guess I'm so drained of originality because I created this extremely original topic (#braggingexcessivelyandbeingaturtley-turtleytwat-twat)).

Ig, (And Min, and others who derailed and didn't explain how their post wasn't a derail, if it wasn't, thereby making me really feel like it's a derail, so please don't derail): Please edit your post(s) including that one you just did about Peri Peri sauce, and add something relevant to the topic at hand... not meaning to go all authoritarian on your ass guys, but every post really ought to stay on topic. This is a very important topic... the world might end if we don't stay on topic (right? (#beingsillybutnotsillywhichissilly (how what the fuck you contradictory turtle-tard?!))).
