In 41 posts, 34 different people have been nominated or had their posts quoted as POTDs. How, exactly, is that incestuous?

What is your problem with this thread?
It's not the first time you've sneered at it.
I believe standard DS advice is "don't read it if you don't like it"

Didn't you know. We're one big, happy family.
I think the UN's true mission has been realised (from the ITT thread)...
EDIT: Oh dear, I've quoted someone who's had a post highlighted on here already. I'm going to be damned for eternity.
