...on the recent direction of the Off-Topic Forum. Delivered in quote form, borrowed from the film "Big Fish."

Quote:
Ed Bloom: I don't know if you're aware of this, Josephine, but African parrots, in their native home of the Congo, they speak only French.
Josephine: Really?
Ed Bloom: You're lucky to get four words out of them in English, but if you were to walk through the jungle, you'd hear them speaking the most elaborate French. Those parrots talk about everything. Politics, movies, fashion. Everything but religion.
Will Bloom: Why not religion, dad?
Ed Bloom: It's rude to talk about religion. You never know who you're gonna offend.

My father always taught me to do everything in moderation.

But yeah, he always told me that it was rude to discuss religion and politics unless it was with people close to me.
