What are some must-read threads in PF's General Discussion?

In summary, a lot of people are new to PF and General Discussion. We have some very creative people here and I think some of the better threads deserve another look. I will be posting some of my favorites here.

Here is a thread where PF members got into a rhyme off.

https://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=55088

I have to add these two threads.

The first one started out innocently enough with a quiz to detect "Are you a nerd" Needless to say, it didn't take long before everyone turned into a pirate. :uhh: https://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=64484

This next one may be the thread to end all threads, except that we can't seem to end it. https://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=63689

Then the thread was kidnapped by Nerd Pirates and Artman had to rescue the thread by coming up with a song. :approve:

Anyone that remembers a great thread, let me know.

Here's the first.

I've only just begun (sounds like a song, eh?) to check these out--so far I enjoyed this the most. I think Ivan and others should write for "The Onion" and other such offerings... :rofl:

A new classic comes to mind at the tiki bar.

To prevent chat, I am locking the thread. If you have threads you wish to add, please pm to me and I will add.

Movies by PF members. These are great!

Moonbear made this movie about out PF 2005/2006 New Year's Eve Party, Math Is Hard was sick, I had no where to go, Ivan Seeking was getting bloated on Near Beer and tippling in his secret closet of hoarded Nyquil while his lovely wife Tsu was stranded at an airport, not to mention tribdog and his HUGE Honey Baked ham. http://mm.dfilm.com/mm2s/mm_route.php?id=2760130"

Tribdog made this tribute to Moonbear and ZapperZ's January 2006 trip to Disney World - ]http://mm.dfilm.com/mm2s/mm_route.php?id=2760109"

Yomama agreed I was boring :frown: and features a really tiny Zz :tongue: http://mm.dfilm.com/mm2s/mm_route.php?id=2760094"

Math Is Hard was able to obtain rare film footage of one of zooby's dates. :bugeye: http://mm.dfilm.com/mm2s/mm_route.php?id=2760129"

Gale managed to turn back time and join our PF New Year's Party after all :smile: http://mm.dfilm.com/mm2s/mm_route.php?id=2760948"

Before these threads get pushed too far aside (or worse dumped into the bit bucket to make room for more threads), I propose to assemble them together, perhaps in a place like Classic Discussion Threads.

They are quite entertaining reading and had me laughing :rofl: reading some of our PF members reminiscences. I recall most of these shows too..

Read now, because it's being set free, it will no longer be stickied (unless a lot of you insist it stays., we can add other threads you think are worthy of keeping).

These are some really creative and hysterically funny threads. I am unlocking for feedback. ENJOY!
