Slight variation on the wikipedia topic game

Wikipedia has a lot of really useless articles. There's only so many topics you can do specifically pertaining to some specific baseball player from the 1920s, so most articles were interpreted pretty liberally anyway. Which kind of got me thinking today - isn't there some place with a collection of randomizable general topic areas that can be discussed? And yes, it turns out there is. Reddit.

OK, you can stop your groaning now. I actually tried it out and it's a slightly easier game, and pretty fun. Only rule is, for picture based boards, focus on the subject of what the picture is about, not the pics themselves. Also - new innovation here - if you see a topic on this thread you like, +1 the post, and reply saying you liked that topic. I feel like adding topics. Here are a few of my attempts:

https://www.reddit.com/r/culinarycringepics/
That all kitchen workers should require licenses

https://www.reddit.com/r/AlbumArtPorn/
That album art has become irrelevant in the digital era

https://www.reddit.com/r/ScotchSwap/
That there should be no export limits on alcohol

https://www.reddit.com/r/learnjavascript/
That Javascript should be taught as part of undergraduate computer science degrees

https://www.reddit.com/r/Texans/
That the Texans football team are superior to the Cowboys football team

https://www.reddit.com/r/RCSources/
That experiments with recreational drugs have been net positive

https://www.reddit.com/r/BestOfOutrageCulture/
That outrage culture is superior to apathy

Digg was the original reddit. To bad they turned out the site to be something totally different.
