I'm going to kill this whole post. It got taken over by the metaphor used in it. Just shows how powerful the attraction of lightweight stuff is. One of the big problems on a user voted news site is to keep out the kind of frivolous crap that would otherwise float to the top because it's easy to upvote and everyone has an opinion about it. An actual post about dating would be offtopic for precisely this reason. But as the comments on this thread show, people's interest in fluff is so great that even if you're merely using a fluff point to explain something more solid, the fluff aspect of it will tend to take over.
