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.

I'd be willing to wager that they are some of the most interesting, kindest people one could ever meet. How could they not have a good sense if humor when they choose to wear a Halloween costume every day of the year? If I had any house pets I'd be cautious about letting them know where I live.

I'd be more willing to bet they're insane. Or addicted to some sort of illegal substance. I don't think you could tolerate that amount of tattooing without some sort of intoxicants in one's system. When they cover your whole body like that, they are in some rather tender areas! Which leaves me wondering if there are tattoos they couldn't show in that photo?

That's what we're doing. This is the championship thread-killer match.
Amateurs. :rolleyes:

No one here is killing the thread. I tried that once but I guess it was against the rules.
 
  • #4,384
You know, I was the first one to point out that this thread has become a general chat.
 
  • #4,385
Well, if everyone would just stop posting in this thread, we could kill it rather quickly! Or, rather, I could kill it quickly. :devil:

Oh, you know we're not going to let that happen, especially since you scooped the 5000th post!

Yeah, those tattoos can be painful. The funny thing was that as it was happening there were spots where it didn't hurt much at all and right next to it the pain would shoot to various spots of my body quite some distance away from the needles. Really a strange experience and almost everyone I know that has done it can't wait to do it again. :devil:

My brother tells me the same thing. He says they are addictive. He's got about 5 of them now and plans to get more.

I think I'll stick with the skin I got. Tattoos aren't my style anyway.

Har har har. That's the joke, but it's only a joke. Nobody is actually trying to kill the thread.

Well, we did start out trying to kill it, but then we gave it a name, and grew rather fond and attached to it, and little franzbear is getting all grown up and is turning into such a handsome lad, well, once you give them names, it's really hard to kill them. :rolleyes:

Well, dang, yours runs along your whole ribcage! That's supposed to be one of the most painful places to get a tattoo. (Aside from the places we can't show pictures of here...ever see pictures of those? I can only hope those guys passed out almost immediately! *shudders* )

My sister has a small one of a dream catcher on her thigh. She's always been the wild one. I tend to avoid things I know in advance are going to be painful.

All I can say is that the guy in the middle is the reason that some animals eat their young. I can just see his mother beaming with pride, showing his pictures to the other moms. Yes, little Johnny always traveled to the beat of a different drum. :bugeye:

Different drum? He's traveling to a whole different band! I'm still shuddering over that one! I guess he can always get a job in a call center where no customers ever have to see him. I'd probably die of fright if I ran into him at night, and I'm usually pretty relaxed about crazy things kids do.

I'm still trying to figure out how the one with the nose ring can breathe. It looks like it fills his nostrils completely!

No, no, no! You're not letting little franzbear get any tattoos like that! He can have a nice turtle like his Uncle Toxyn, but that's it! He can dye his hair any color he wants and wear make-up even, but no tattoos on the face! Only things that grow out or wash off.
 
  • #4,395
Threads don't have faces. So, now you have abandoned all pretense of harming the thread?
 
  • #4,396
Or, actually, any face in the thread counts as the thread's face... so the thread already has a tattooed face!

Did you sneak little franzbear out for the tattoo! :mad: Where's his father? He needs to give his son a good talking to for that!

Come on franzbear. I want to introduce you to some friends of mine. They have some really nice toys. Here, you can use this to color all over yourself and it'll never wash off. Isn't that amazing. What do you say we start by filling in those fence post impressions Uncle Artman left on your face. We'll get you some new teeth too, stronger, faster, better teeth. Really shiny ones that Moonbear will just love.

Well I am not going to stay up as late as I did last night. Good night.

Goodnight Bicycle Tree. :smile: :zzz:

What are you doing to my baby?! franzbear, I can't even leave you alone for a moment! Haven't you learned not to listen to your Uncle Huck when he tells you to do things?

I find that large quantities of alcohol make people much more pliant. When that doesn't work small quantities of ether do the trick very well. Besides, I think franzbear looks quite handsome with his new look. Just look at him smile. I probably shouldn't have used those rusty needles for his tatoo. Oh well, I doubt it will make a difference anyway.

Hey, Now that Bicycle Tree is asleep what do you say we shave off one of his eyebrows and take a few photos for all his friends?

Oh he'll love that. I would use a permanent marker. Imagine the look on his face when he wakes up and goes to the bathroom and sees stuff on his face. Maybe a big swastika on his forehead and a love note from Uncle Charlie. I bet he would get a kick out of that.

How's your rescheduling going?

Ooh, you're more creative than I am. I was thinking of drawing in eyes on his eyelids and a handlebar mustache.

Didn't work. I only took a 4 hour nap (it was only meant to be a half hour or hour nap), but I'm right back where I started only 4 hours of sleep. Maybe I should try melatonin again. I tried it before, and it was useless, but I don't think the dose was high enough to be effective in overcoming normal feedback mechanisms. I might just see if it works to increase the dose a bit. If not, then back to the drawing board.

Oh, the swastika tattoo looks great! I think he needs to show it off. In, fact, franzbear, why don't you take this car for a drive through South Central, L.A. and show off your tattoo to all the folks there. You must be old enough to drive by now. Which car? Oh, just take this one with the "Rodney King had it coming" bumper sticker. Make sure you wave to all the new friends you meet. Making new friends is good!

Oh, man! franzbear, make sure you tell all your new friends that it was your idea!

:rolleyes: Maybe this is going too far... *slips bullet-proof jacket onto BT* Okay, now I don't feel so guilty.

And, franzbear, honey, here's a nice bandana for you to wear to look cool for all the friends you're going to meet.

LOL! :smile: And make sure you take the freeways back home when you're done playing with your new friends. That's the safest route.

Do what you want. I suggest too much lipstick, too much eye shadow, and the bad side of town.(pick up some extra money for the weekend) :-p
