Not being funny but this is a pretty major news story. Earlier this evening the BBC had 3 different reports about it online. In what way is it F7 material?

Being covered by everyone doesn't make it a major news story, only majorly viral. It's a spammy meme no matter where it pops up. F7 is the correct location.

So the things that have happened and people, including the major news sources, are talking about aren't news any more. Got it.

You know, you might want to look at that "For discussion and debate about anything" tag for the General forum, because what can and can't be talked about is getting really fucking narrow these days.....

The topic, and the method of discussing it, is just more suited to F7. It's a fun thing folks were going back and forth over, but honestly ... there's not a lot of real 'discussion' so much as 'chatter/good-naturedly bicker about which it is'. Granted, I wasn't around for this one, but just looking over it, and having heard what all went on with it for a while when it came out, it seems a fair enough call.

Not to say fun can't be had in NSG, but the spammish nature of that sort of topic lends itself better elsewhere.

It's just forums, folks. It isn't as if where it's posted taints or otherwise makes it less usable, in spite of some opinions to the contrary.

By that logic we should have a thread to discuss everything that becomes trending on twitter.

Not everything that trends on twitter makes international headlines.

Not everything that makes international headlines deserves four separate threads in NSG in two days. And the original one was shut down because people got inexplicably angry about it, the whole thing dissolving spam.
