Click For Summary
The discussion revolves around the humorous concept of "thread killers" on a forum, where participants analyze who tends to end conversations with their posts. The top offenders identified include franznietzsche, Moonbear, and tribdog, with a playful tone suggesting a competition for the title of "thread killer." Participants debate the validity of counting last posts as a measure of thread-killing ability, arguing that it should be adjusted based on the total number of posts each user has made. The conversation shifts into a light-hearted narrative, likening thread-killing to a horror movie scenario, with participants playfully accusing each other of sabotaging discussions and attempting to "steal" the thread. The banter includes references to fictional scenarios involving dramatic rescues and humorous characterizations, maintaining a light and comedic atmosphere throughout.

(did you get your invitation to the secret wild parties yet?)

I intercepted it. I was going to blindfold him and take him to one tonight as a surprise! :wink:

Yeh, baby, and fish! (Now we can look forward to avatars, signatures, etc. too!)

The lungs are shot to hell, but my heart's fine. (And I did pay that yogi a lot to teach me how to breathe through my ears.)



So can I use a signature now?! Huh? CannI, cannI...? :-p

I'm thinking a luau theme, with drinks that have umbrellas and garnish, and...(<-- a sisterhood fill-in-the-blank).

I'm afraid to see what it is.

Yes, you can use a signature now. :smile:

We should take him to that Tiki Bar over by the philosophy forums. He'd love it. :smile: :approve:

I thought you knew? Didn't I see you there last weekend? You were drinking one of those flaming blue cocktails with Moonbear.

That's how Smurf got his name, isn't it? Hey wait a minute, I thought the party was moved around to different locations and a cover was charged at the door for non-members? Dang it, who keeps pinching my butt!

Oh, sorry. Am I not supposed to do that while you're talking to me.

I'm liking this very much. Been a while since I've seen your ass, SOS. It's still as nice as ever.
I'm going to go to the control room and see if I can make a signature without screwing it up. It's a phrase that just popped into my head a week or so ago—possibly a flash-back—that is absolutely useless elsewhere. Since most others here don't make sense, there's no reason for mine to. :biggrin:
I'll come back right after to see if it worked.
 
  • #3,134
Apparently it didn't. :frown:
I'll go back and try again.
 
  • #3,135
Nope. Still nothing. It's in the edit box, and I saved it, and the 'show signature' button is selected... help!

edit: It shows up in preview mode... :confused: :frown:

2nd edit: While I was typing it, my monitor flickered and now all of the text is about 20% smaller than it was before. What the hey have I buggered up now?! :eek:

Okay MIH, you want some of this? Huh? Take a look at this avatar girlie!

Go to User CP and click on signature. Then you can add it and change the font etc. as usual. Dang, who pinched my butt again!

That's what I did. It didn't work. It shows up in CP, and in my profile, and in the preview for posts, but not in the posts themselves. :frown: :frown:

Sorry, that was me this time. Just picking off some lint. Don't worry about it.

edit: I just thought of something. Does Evo have to approve it before it shows up? Shouldn't be a problem—it isn't about her this time. o:)

I think I know what's wrong -- is it saying the file is too large? It needs to be no larger than 64 x 64. Did you say you have Photo Shop or something like that so you can resize it?

Ah...picking lint off someone is considered an affectionate behavior--wait, off my butt?

Oooops sorry, you were talking about a signature. No you don't need approval. Hmmm... I see it -- you got it!

It's how Gwyneth Paltrow would look if she was fat like Anna Nicole (was)--ah heck, I couldn't get anything better on the fly. I'm going to something else now...

Oh, yeah - "Shallow Hal". I liked that movie.

Good heavens! I've been gone most of the day getting yardwork and housework and stuff in general done, and I come back to be scared nearly to death by your new avatar MIH! Is there a scary avatar competition going on here or something?

Yeah, I can't quite tell what SOS's avatar is either. Maybe a few more drinks at the Tiki Bar will clear it up. :bugeye:

Danger, good to see you've joined the Gold Club! With you around here all the time, it was getting difficult to pass the word about the location of the parties each night without letting you see them. :cool:

I know--I made a fill-in-the-blank while you were gone and MIH had to fill it in. And then I had this avatar, but last time you said it looks like I'm smelling someone's butt. Speaking of butt, mine keeps getting pinched...but after a couple for these foo-foo drinks, I think I'm starting to like it. :-p

You missed everything. Evo became a shaman and cast a money spell on me.

Something went awry and I turned into a golddigger instead of an heiress. I question the "sacrificed chicken" she used. I think she might have substituted a bucket of original recipe from KFC. :biggrin:

Have you seen "50 First Dates" (2004)?

Tagline: Imagine having to win over the girl of your dreams... every friggin' day.

Plot Outline: Adam Sandler plays a man who falls in love with Lucy (Drew Barrymore), a woman with short-term memory loss. Therefore, Lucy never remembers Sandler and this proves to be a pain for him as he always has to gain her back every day.

Interesting premise--ah...

How come nobody's pinching my butt?

Glad I wasn't around to see that. I wouldn't want to be part of the collateral damage of one of those miscast spells! :eek: Geez, she could have at least gotten the extra crispy. :rolleyes:

Whaddaya mean, you see it? I got it? I don't see it. Is there some kind of filter that... oh crap. I'll be right back...

Okay... I found it. Somehow when I created it, my CP deselected the 'show signatures' box. I wasn't seeing anybody's, not just my own. I'm so used to skipping over them that I didn't notice. Now that I've seen it, I think I'll go change the colour. :approve:

I must have been in the wrong subforum. :frown: I'll just peek in the doors of all of them and I guess I'll know I'm in the right place when my butt gets pinched. Is that tonight's secret signal? :biggrin:
