Watch out for "Macaroni" posts
Some were said to test macaroni for doneness by throwing it against the wall. If it stuck, it was supposedly done.

Threads like that are about some point that is utter bullshit.

Oftentimes the OP will never go back in the thread again. Meanwhile, squabbles within will often erupt onto flame wars.

Beware the Macaroni Threads in this final week.

1. I prefer the "monkey hurling own feces" comparison, though yours is much nicer.

3. Interesting. How much does it pay to be a macaroni-ist?
You know, just in case, this economy is pretty tough.

7. I'd be great at that..
One of the reasons I don't start many threads is I know a lot of my opinions are pretty incendiary.

8. Marconi posts bear watching too. Especially by low-flying aircraft.
