I think it has to do with Godwins' Law, that the longer a thread goes on, the probability of someone being compared to Hitler or a Nazi approaches 1.

Well that's an education for me.

So we could maybe have a thread where we must discuss a particular topic (say, guinea pigs) for as long as we possibly can, without mentioning Hitler or the Nazis? And the first person to mention Hitler or the Nazis loses?

That would be excruciating. I couldn't do it. In a discussion about guinea pigs I reckon I might just about get past the first three Posts, tops.
