You do see the same threads. We have had our obligatory Wal-Mart thread. Now we need one about barking dogs, un-attended children, and how bad RV construction is.
Actually... I'm surprised. I've yet to see a gun thread pop up, and I usually see that appear this time of year, run for a few days, then get locked because it turns into the usual griping.
Of course, there will be the thread from the college student who wants to full-time in a van or motorhome because it appears cheaper on paper than paying for a dorm with a roomie.
