sdorr:
I am positive that I am not alone in this belief. Surly MIO would back me up on this along with many others.
Perhaps we will see if I am correct.
I am sorry Sdorr, but I have never, not in any way, not ever, seen any such derailment or other of said, or unsaid, threads, be they cotton, polyester or the forum kind, from my partner in crime... I mean partner in guild, Miss LizzieRossetti. But then I have to admit I have been taught ever so expertly to not see such matters that may in some way incriminate the accused, to the extent that I can now only see clearly out of one eye, and that be only when the light shines through the window at the correct angle of 67.93 degrees, which is not possible except for the months of July and August, between the 28th of the former and 2nd of the latter. She sends Lambert over to attend to my failing eyesight, but it only seems to get worse each day he comes. And, of course, she knows where I live, she tells me!
So, you see, my hands are tied (with fur covered handcuffs and initials L R on them, but that's irrelevant).
Oh, and by the way, don't call me Surly!! Sir if you wish, but not Surly.
And finally, may I congratulate you on being one of the only people on this site of many thousands who seems to know how and when to use there, their and they're. It is a disgrace what is taught, or not taught, or probably more accurate not learned, in school these days.
Back to the OP and about hijacking threads - nope, not me neither. Honest, Guv!
