starting arguments

Man, isn't it so funny how easy it is to start arguments on this place? For example, I recently started a "best music" thread and got people to argue over the merits of The Beatles. Its great, you just say some remark that you think will piss some one off, come back a day later. Hopefully, there will then be waiting a long argument for you to laugh at.

Man, republicans suck.

George Bush is Mother Theresa on heroin. Don't you talk bad about the repubs, and pass me the drugs, man.

Why make a thread that will only start a political pissing contest?

It's best to post gracefully about the nature of argument here, especially with that political bent, since any other effort (as this thread tends to allude) is very likely to get locked for some reason that got sticky-noted somewhere.
I've noticed that people are here to either argue, get/glean new info, or to watch others argue and inspire them to. I tend to fall into all those categories over the course of any given day. *shrug*
