This is a neat site for those "name that movie from random bits of plot" questions that pop up on askme. Not sure where else this might go.
it doesn't belong here.

A week ago I would say this doesn't belong. Today, I'm not so sure.

Because this monstrosty is still up. It's ugly and can only lead to random crap like this.
Or perhaps I've been long mistaken as to the purpose of metatalk.

Not everything that happens sets a precedent or signals a change in direction. Sometimes posts stay up because they're from the day after Thanksgiving.

Ugh. But overly chatty threads (and the folks who post to them) have been creating noise in MeTa for a long time; they seem to justify the Mefi-relatedness with "I'm talking about Mefi members' feelings" or something. Anyway, much as I agree with you, that example doesn't change this one, which clearly belongs in Mefi.

It does bring up one point though. How can I search for and find all those unanswered "name that movie from random bits of plot" and tidy them all up?
