1. none.
I at least read a thread before I put it on ignore. I'm a super curious person.

4. I've never actually used the ignore thread option before.
I might skip over a thread if I'm not interested, but I hate to hide one, just in case a party breaks out.

8. The ones that have titles that could be considered "not safe for work".
Just what I need is someone coming in seeing something "pronographic" typed on a web site.

11. The ones talking about any sport other than baseball...
That's about it. I just don't know anything about most sports and have no interest. Other than that, just about everything is fair game.

22. I was going to say that I never use the ignore thread - but you make a
compelling argument! I may reconsider - in fact, I think I'll go ignore some threads right now...

20. same. Anything bad about animals is toast. Also, right now
I am chicken about reading about other people's dire straits. Too much anxiety in my life to handle it. I like that the Lounge is open for just about everything, but I am so thankful for the hide thread option!

27. I admit I'm a coward (?) when it comes to Animal Cruelty. I know .....
...of course, that it exists everyday but after reading about it, my Emotions are screwed up for hours.
..sadness, rage...ect..

This doesn't mean I don't do anything about it. I regularly give money to Animal organizations.

33. Here's a recent smattering from my hide thread list
If Pete Rose is denied the Baseball Hall-of-Fame then so should anyone guilty of Steriod abuse

You're at the first press conference of Barack Obama's tenure - what dumbass question would you ask?

For the first time in 8+ years: I can't WAIT to see the President on TV tonight

Why Cant The Library Computers Allow You To View Prawn?

For those keeping score at home - Parche is now on my "Dead To Me" list

Well there goes the Led Zeppelin tour

34. Bad things about children or animals.
Those are the sorts of things that get stuck in my brain.

Mostly I use my mental ignore "X" because it's hard for me to say which makes a disturbing thread title stickier in my head -- actually hitting the ignore "X" or glancing over it a few times before it sinks away into the archives.
