Why does starting a bandwagon have to take so much work?[]

Dude. 

You can't force a bandwagon. 

Even if you try something that's been turned into a bandwagon over and over again (like those opinion threads) there's always the chance it won't catch on.

The only way to make a bandwagon is to start some sort of trend as far as posting threads go - and that depends entirely on the others in Spam.

In fact, hell, generally the people responsible for starting a bandwagon really aren't the people who posted the original thread that the bandwagon was based on. It's the person who posts that second thread - the first spin-off on the original idea - that gets the ball rolling and inspires others to jump in, thus creating a bandwagon. 

[i]That's[/i] how that works.

I can't believe I needed to explain this.

Edit: Oh, and these things always happen spontaneously and out-of-nowhere. They can't really be planned. So don't bother.

And why would you want to start a random bandwagon, anyway?

And hell, what is this bandwagon even supposed to be focused around? Every bandwagon has some common theme - that's what makes the collective group of threads recognizable as a bandwagon. Starting a bandwagon and just calling it "bandwagon" is like saying you want to write a book but having no ideas for what it will be about other than the fact that it's supposed to be a book. ...And then taking that "idea" (which in and of itself is a lack of an idea) to a publisher and expecting something to happen.

There are just so many flaws in this plan I can't even.
