This one's a triple whammy, because in addition to those two derail triggers, there's the fact that everything vaguely spooky and every unknown horror is "Lovecraftian" according to goons, making his mention all the more frequent.

Not a big derail per say but I always find it amusing how goons just utterly flip their shits over comic sans. I just don't get it, it's just a dumb font.

More or less every time you say some show/videogame/book/opera/cat taxidermy kit is crud, some genius absolutely has to let you know that contrary to popular belief, you d'ont have to watch/read/etc. it.

Gee, thanks Captain, I was thinking of stopping but I was afraid the guards would shoot me.

Too many cthulu posts on this page.

Can we get back on track, folks? This is the derail thread, not the continuous-deepening-and-fleshing-out-of-a-single-discussion-thread
