Where'd the fun go?

I remember coming to these boards and enjoying myself, having fun and making jokes with others.  I never minded the arguing, that was actually my favorite part, but it's the politics that seem to be destroying this section.

Lately all of these off topic boards have been filled with how Obama will ruin the world, etc. etc.  There isn't as many of those "I'm going to post because I feel like it" threads anymore; people just seem to try to lure others into debating about the problems of the world.

Threads like Teala's that hit 350 posts in less than two days while we discussed different varieties of cupcakes; now all there are is topic about how politics are bringing this country down.

Am I the only one who is thinking this?

Well Taela is absent for the most part.  Zorvan's probably in his basement pumping iron and too busy trying to avoid his dog dropping weights on him again to post.  As for the rest of the people who actively participated in that post, I don't know...  I'm still around but I really don't have any interest in politics so I barely post.

Yeah, I still browse a lot but find less of a need to post because the topics don't interest me as much.
