On "random" boards with no real purpose, you see the true face of humanity and what the collective consciousness really deep down cares about: maintaining an identity and reproducing. This is because they are controlled by memes and these two memes are themselves the features that define a strong meme: it has to be stable and it has to be able to reproduce. It looks trite but you're basically staring into the spine of all civilization.
