"That discussion board used to be a great place to talk about politics, but now the noise-to-signal ratio is through the roof!"
"Typically, a demagogue actually benefits from nonsensical, contradictory and inflammatory statements and agendas. Ironically, the higher the noise-to-signal ratio, the more effective they become since any useful information would actually rein them in."

It's so hard to change lanes because of these signal suppositories!
