From the OmniNerd FAQ:

Who is OmniNerd’s arch nemesis?
bq. OmniNerd has no nemesis, as that implies our doom. However, if you’re looking for an opposite, Entertainment Weekly is a good place to start.

For the first time since OmniNerd was born over two years ago, there is a non-nerdy post up about a celebrity. Just a rant from someone who doesn’t like Rosie O’Donnell. Yet somehow, it has dominated the Coffee Shop outlasting and beating posts on morality, politics, and more. I’m not exactly sure how the coffee shop algorithm works, but it’s keeping Rosie O’Donnell above more current topics and even topics with more posts. I suspect it is rising to the top because people keep clicking on it. Why? Is that really what we are most interested in?

To be completely fair, about 20 out of the 26 comments at this time are "Anonymous". So now the question is; are topics like these attracting "that kind of person"? (Or are registered users too embarrassed to be caught logging in and giving Rosie their support?)
