In which presidentsdaughter returns (and there was much rejoicing)

Continuing the discussion from Discopædia:
DiscoFever

- Not actually related to Discourse
Compare: Discomania
The mean time before thread derail here can be measured in single digits. If people were using the off-topic flag as intended, half the posts here would be flagged and @PJH would be ready to contribute to the statistics in the gun thread. Is the off-topic flag configurable, and if so, should we remove it?

half the posts here would be flagged
Only half? That is optimistic.
@PJH would be ready to contribute to the statistics in the gun thread.
That sounds like a wager to me.

No poll? How lame.

Is the off-topic flag configurable
I don’t think so... Flag types are hard-coded, so you can’t add or remove one.
-
Good catch, but it looks like it's too late to change it now. Everyone would answer FILE_NOT_FOUND anyway.
-
The Off-topic flag has legitimately been used on here. (Questions thread is the most egregious.)
Edit: And as pointed out, flags are hard-coded.

Which means that @presidentsdaughter has discovered the secret of eternal youth?

I just realised you can flag the OP as off topic.
This topic is off topic. Please rerail it now

I think its supposed to be a flag for miscategorization.

Today is Fortran's Birthday.

Isn't it the same for emoticons? IIRC, we get emoji-one plus some extras ( :rage1: etc), but no customization.
Who thought any of that was a good idea? We know who it was.

I wish I could say I was surprised. Removing the off-topic flag would obviously be Doing It WrongTM, a Barrier to Reading, etc.

Humm, what did I discover?

A "Someone Didn't Get the Joke" badge?

Because that joke never gets old.Which means that @presidentsdaughter has discovered the secret of eternal youth?
Am I drinking FILE_NOT_FOUND cocktails?

It's 5 o'clock somewhere.

No it is not. There's no such timezone making your time of post (18:12 UTC) to be 5 o'clock anywhere in the world.

You really want that badge, don't you? Fine, I'll flag the posts.
