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.

Oh, no, not at all. Turtles aren't much fun to play with when they hide in their shells.

Hello everyone. A few more days and this semester will be over with :smile:

How is everyone else doing?

You hear that, Danger?

There is a conspiracy on a global scale (they already took over division cycles and stay ahead of us by almost 2 % in numbers!) to systematically and innately break down the calcium shells on our turtles by use of their acid!

Oh yeah preppy boy?

How about them finals stretched over 2 week infused with sleepless nights on caffeine and dihydrogen monoxide piling over sketchy notes

Now, now, now, calm down. So many urban myths! For example, you will not go blind if your turtle comes out of it's shell. Turtles are a valued creation and must be protected. That is why we opened the clinic you know.

Absolutely! We take great pride in the loving care we give to turtles. :approve:

Exactly. The "one-eyed zipper eel" becomes a "turtle" when immersed in water (hot tubs, etc.)
That depends entirely upon the temperature of the water and the quality of the company. :-p

'Suzie' is actually the only one I'm familiar with by name. I found that a little distracting.

So you only date Jewish boys?

Hi! Congratulations! Now, back to the perversity...

I hate to disillusion you, but the term 'bone' is just a euphamism. I might be pretty freakin' old, but I don't have a calcium shell yet.

Correct. One can't go around exposing turtles to every environment. It is good to know a few basics of accepted turtle care.

Turtles require the proper environment to truly grow and be happy. Turtles like warm moist surroundings. This can make them just poke their heads out of their shell, raise up, and dive right in and come back out and dive right in again, and come right out again. :-p Just a happy happy turtle. :-p

You're just looking for an excuse to run out and grab one off the street, aren't you?

Yeah, I'm a softy when it comes to turtles. If I see one out on the street, I always stop to pick it up and move it into the bushes.

Well my turtle doesn't usually talk to strangers - I taught it well - but if you stick around for a while.. I'll introduce you two

I didn't know turtles talked to anyone! :eek: I think I'll stick with the silent ones.

Real bushes, or merkins?

This is a bit off-topic, and not something that you run across every day... but in an emergency, a real turtle can be used as a silencer. And if you don't mind a little GSR in your soup, there can be side benefits. (Sorry, Evo. Really, honey... this has nothing to do with Roger...)

You've known me for over a month now, and you still roll over for something that simple? I'm starting to think that I've been overexerting myself.
