“Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic.”

This is off-topic.

If you're gonna be a rules stickler, you should probably obey them yourself:

I don't know about you but this sounds like interesting new phenomenon to me.
