I don't think we have a problem. The random part of the forums is meant for random stuff, and the current spree of unusual topics will probably pass in a day or two anyway. This isn't the first time there's been a serious of quasi-related off-topic threads, and they never stuck for long, or caused any serious grievances.

If this does become a problem, which probably won't happen, a simple way of solving it would be to not have threads from the Off Topic forum show in the Hot Topics list on the front page.
