That's not my perception.

TBAY posts may and often do contain material about canon based theories. So 
do some MOVIES and some OT posts (certainly nowhere near as many as TBAY 
does, I grant you).

But, frankly. my perception is that a significant number of TBAY posts are 
primarily about people 'roleplaying' and whatever canon points are being made 
are secondary to that roleplaying, giggle giggle injoke purpose.

That's my perception, and it may be wrong - but I don't believe that the idea that 
TBAY posts are about canon-based theories is unassailable.
