That would be a neon sign inviting topic drift.  Topic drift doesn't need any help, it is already invincible.

I wasn't really being serious but on the topic of OT. I think a degree of it is welcome as long as people don't abuse it by swamping the group with their own pet issue and people general avoid contentious subjects such as politics and religion. That seems to be what happens here.

There was a couple of posters over at the PC wargaming NG that used to bring their somewhat obnoxious political views in at the drop of a hat. I just found it ruined the group. The one I now find annoying is people who think everybody is interested in US politics!

 Well, we do rule the world doncha know.  :D
 Plus the current campaign/election for US President is going to have huge repercussions for much of the world.  But I will leave it at that.

Well one I find even more annoying is those from the US that seem to think this US Constitution applies to all countries. The clue is in the name!
