Today's Topic
This regular feature is one of our most popular activities.
If there's a particular issue that you feel passionate about, and on which you would like others to engage you in intelligent debate and serious discussion, then save it for your next dinner party. However, if you've got an ill-thought out idea or a lame subject on which you'd love to receive a whole pile of ridiculous arguments and fabricated opinions, then why not post it as Today's Topic?
Pooclubbers love expounding nonsensical points of view on matters about which they know very little or simply don't care, so your topic can be about anything, honestly, anything at all!
Here is a small selection of the topics we've discussed in the past: wardrobes, Sweden, melon balls, pies versus pasties, ringing the bell on the bus, geese, goths, W, sorting out the cutlery drawer, favourite secretions, badly shaped food, fish knives, witch burning, lettuce, Canadians, isotopes, teabagging, plushies, lukewarm, 37, nosebags, Wednesdays, chunks, what's on your desk, the pointy things on giraffes' heads, and Cheadle Hulme. A more comprehensive list is to be found below.

Today's Topic: <Wibbles>
Love them, loathe them, or simply ignore them, it's difficult to imagine a world without <wibbles>. <Wibbles> have now become the <thingiest> thing since <nubwarts>, and look set to take over as the world's favourite <barmuttock>.
But what do really know about <wibbles>? Can they ever be a suitable replacement for <ninglummies>? And is there any truth in the recent allegations about their tendency to <hiberponge>?
Pooclubbers, you decide.
<your name>
Then just post it to pooclub and enjoy the barrage of bollocks you'll get back in response.
