Is this place a treatment center for Off-Topic withdrawal symptoms?

I haven't been able to get my fix recently. Someone please give me a hug and tell me it's all going to be ok.

You'll need to find a new fix for off topic discussion, it the concensus that an OT subforum is a lot more trouble than it's worth, and 100% agree, seeing how calguns OT ended up.
 
10 years ago the OT was a fun and hilarious place. Now it is a sad place full of "I am more right wing than YOU!" fist wagging senior citizens. It got real old.
Also the OT crowd had the lowest ITrader ratings. Not even sure if they were gun collection addicts.
There is still funny stuff occasionally, but it is rare. Mostly just the same tired 30 posters.

I was part of the OT crowd. I was probably one of the highest itrader rated OT crowd member as well.
 
OT was good. You just needed a thick skin.
Sure, there's that. But also a lot of hate, racism, zealots, conspiracy theorists, anti-Semitism, Russian Lovers, Christian "Fanatics" (not-christians by definition), bigotry, everyone's a RINO if you don't drink the kool aid, OMG do not even get me started if someone belonged to the alphabet community, and it goes on, and on, and on...

Gets old and counter productive.
 
Usually its the cheapest dive bar open the earliest.
The patrons will be elderly, disheveled, and smell like they havent washed their undercarriage.
I would consider the shift punishment or a reflection of being raised by someone like that.

These are old people that cant even bear to enjoy a nice day in the park without wearing out their welcome from other old people.

People that get kicked out of that last vestige, or perceive themselves to be shunned out of the real world, end up in the OT.
