Is it a board formality that "In praise of" threads are only to be used for praise? In other words: if you hate the subject, just stay off the thread?

I think the general sentiment is as follows:

Classic/Dud: DEBATE AHOY! Are they good or bad?
In Praise Of...: Celebrate all the great things about this! Woo-hoo positivity!

In case you have read the recent "Seventeen Seconds" thread, consider that the exception rather than the rule.

Aha! So I was being an asshole on the 36 Chambers thread, then. Just wanted to confirm that. Won't happen again.

You could always start an In Damnation of... thread.

In Damnation of...Horses by Patti Smith

In Damnation of....."Levon" by Elton John
