But can you derail a derail about derails?
*Smirk*
I'm pretty sure there was a thread that got derailed into a discussion of derails some years ago in the upper boards. Can't seem to find it, though. Still, we've been there already.

Can you derail a thread so hard that it makes a full circle and comes back on track?

We've done that a couple of times IIRC. It's hard to distinguish from pulling everything back on track as opposed to the discussion re-railing of its own volition.

Please don't shitpost, it lowers the quality of discourse

Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

Not if by 'about' you mean 'created to discuss'.

Derailing a derail thread would be staying on one topic for to long.

Knowing Belgium, everyone will vote for themselves out of mistrust for anyone else, and some kind of weird direct democracy coalition will need to be formed from 11 million or so individuals.

Sorry to derail the derailment, I saw recursion before, and I like recursion...
Also, I swear I didn't mean to be partially on topic by discussing derailment, I just wanted to apologize for breaking continuity.

I just wish recursion was faster. Iterating manually is so much faster, so I often find myself ignoring potential but unnecessary recursion just for the performance benefit. Although I do wonder if any compilers are smart enough to optimize be removing recursion where unnecessary...
