Thread hijacking game

[Sock Puppet]

Sometimes threadjacking can be annoying, if there's a good discussion that gets lost. Other times, it's just fun.

I didn't invent this game; however, I've only seen it appear once. Simply put, hijack the post above yours by taking some insignificant part of the post off on a wild tangent. Since there's no post above mine, I'll just quote somebody on another thread. This may not be the best fodder, and my initial hijack is a bit lame, but I got tired of searching for something suitable. Feel free to provide "bait" for the next poster if you wish, as I attempted to do. Finally, please don't derail this thread by continuing discussion of a previous post rather than hijacking it.

Edited to add: As a courtesy to the next poster, please make your post lengthy enough to provide a good opening for a hijack.

I agree entirely, and furthermore, I think it's horrible that some people are judged on their entrance alone. I used to live in an in-law apartment where you had to go down a long, narrow hallway around the garage. It would have been grossly unfair to judge my economic status, or my sanity, by the fact that I had such a bizarre entryway. After all, it was San Francisco and rents were high, and having an in-law apartment was a better choice than most of the more conventional apartments in my price range. I only had a slight rat problem, and a slightly more severe problem with mold and water leaks. I loved that musty masterpiece of an in-law apartment. Anybody who thinks otherwise just doesn't understand what it's like to live in San Francisco.
