Default Sign that a thread has outlived its usefulness

Long ago before the internet (in the days of newsgroups only), the sure sign that a thread had completed its "useful" life was when someone mentioned Hitler. It didn't matter what the context was or who was being compared with him. It just showed that the escallation of words had reached a crescendo, and things had gone so far that nothing meaningful could be said.

So on that note, I'll no longer read this thread. Heck, I'm not even sure why I'm reading threads in off-topic...must be a slow day.
