The answer to your poll is "politics" and its not even remotely close.

no wai dude... and imo it's close. politics has generally worse posting, since every jackass seems to have some barely-formed thought about most things political. on the other hand, sometimes someone might say something interesting or accidentally funny.

sporting events is boring, snobby and elitist mixed with "middle aged fat guy in a smelly jersey breaking down to the 0.00000X decimal place who should be the backup 2B on the 2007 AL all star roster" and hometown boorishness

both are awful, but i'll take SE any day over politics fwiw

SE is way worse while Boston is winning things.

i was in both of these today and saw your ops

Politics <<< SE. But politics doesn't really suck for the reason you said it does; it sucks because everyone just has the same argument every day and no one ever really listens to anyone else. Also, no one can ever have a genuine discussion about anything because they're too busy being combative/dismissive of opposing viewpoints.

SE is ok, but you pretty much nailed what sucks about it.

i started a thread in politics, i got some good answers imo

Mbillie, I'm sorry you didn't enjoy your Politics experience. I looked over your thread and I only found a couple hijacking posts and taxes are an important component of your question.

As for my forum being full of nits, I guess that's just the kind of person who generally likes to talk politics.
