AI Thread Summary

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 still hold the record of an 18 hour kill, plus the much longer kill of days/weeks when the thread truly was dead and gone until resurrected.

I don't think the supreme deadness counts as a kill until its the last supreme deadly deadness deadness.

Well, I'm still working on that one. If nothing else, I'm persistent. :biggrin:

Actually, when Evo re-opened the thread, she was going to delete all of the superfluous posts to make it into a "Best of Franzbear" type thread, but it was growing faster than she could delete.
I'm still planning to delete more when I get my computer fixed.

Astronuc's right. It's people making superfluous comments at silly-o-clock in the morning when there's nothing better to do.

Sorry about that.
Actually, brewnog said it better than I did.

Silly-o'clock is indeed an appropriate term for the wee hours, unless one is intoxicated, in which case that term applies to time after 'happy hour'.

now then newbies I could go on and drop the usual classic babble about how I hate this thread but today, for some classic reason i am bored. Not the kind of bored where you lose sense of hours or days, but the kind of bored when you stare at the clock and it says 3:04 and you walk around the house, read emails, messages, even an article, heck even drink some coffee and go to China adopt a kid and raise to teach him to be funny, and yet when you look at the watch again it says 3:06

AAAUGHH!

Right after Lisa Marie had Michael Jackson's baby, they went to see her gynecologist. After the baby's exam, Michael asked the doctor, "Doctor, how long will it be before we can have sex?" The doctor replied, "Well, Michael, you probably ought to wait until he's at least 10 or 11."

I hate those kind of days, but usually that happens on a Friday, not a Saturday.

  • #7,568
Heh, you guys can try! Someone want to try to be the 9,000th poster again?

Ooh, I'll take it this time. :smile:

Nevermind...you're a lot faster with your new ethernet card.
 
  • #7,570
You had it for a second. :smile:

I wonder how many posts will be deleted?
 
  • #7,571
Pff, this thing will never get to 10000 if Evo keeps deleting posts :cry:

You have to go for the high quality posts. :approve:

Hmm...has anybody detached Franzbear from the electric outlet in Artman's basement? I think I smell something burning and I think one of those circuit breakers might have been faulty (or missing :devil:).
 
  • #7,573
If Evo is only going to keep high quality posts, she might as well save the time and just delete the whole thread :smile:

I have to come up for air now.

It is so much fun going back and reading through the thread. I'm trying to make it as un-noticable as possible, which means I need to read everything. :bugeye:

It was bad enough reading through some of this thread the first time through! (Though some is quite a riot...I'm looking forward to the condensed version so I can skip to the fun stuff and avoid all the silly-o-clock boredom babble in between.)

Yep, good example of the type of stuff Evo is currently deleting. :approve:

Franzbear, I think it's time to teach you a useful skill so you can get a job. Roofing sounds like a good one to start with. Just remember, don't fall off the roof and into the bucket of hot tar. Yeah, just take a few steps backward...just one more...

crazy ol...[/size] HI MOONBEAR!
 
  • #7,581
So where are you yomamma? Out of Australia yet? How was it?
 
  • #7,582
read the australia thread. there's some pics.

it was a great trip. the only bad thing was the 13hour 30 minute flight
 
  • #7,583
Oh, ugh, that's right, you're near L.A., so you get to take direct flights there. It's even more fun for those on the east coast who first have to fly to the west coast for a flight to Australia. Franzbear was very upset you didn't take him along with you. He enjoyed his last overseas flight on the landing gear, but that wasn't as long of a flight as you took. He was practicing the Australian phrases I was teaching him and everything. Shhhh...he's still pretty gullible and doesn't realize they speak English there.[/size]

what the..?!

I brought him in my suitcase! we went diving in the barrier reef, what are you talking about: 'didn't bring him'

I think you grabbed the wrong thread. Maybe you just had a ball of yarn along. Franzbear was playing in his Uncle Artman's basement the whole time, the poor thing.
 
  • #7,586
no, I took him out of the basement. I swear it was him. what other thread can get you arrested under australian law, but get you out in less than a day? franzbear.

Oooh, this could kill the thread. I did this last year to my house.

Franzbear, use the architectural shingles. They're prettier. :approve:

They also weigh in at over 90 lbs per bundle.

No, no franzbear, carry two or three bundles up at a time. You don't want to make too many trips up and down the ladder. It's dangerous. o:)

Especially since I have attached this wire from the aluminum ladder to the faulty outlet in my basement. :-p

What's that, Franzbear? You want to know what the jumper cables are doing on the ladder? :rolleyes: :rolleyes: They are... :rolleyes: there to :rolleyes:...I have to go down into the basement a minute...here you take this wire and climb up the ladder --don't forget to take three bundles with you. You wouldn't want to climb back down and get them , right? o:)

What's that? You can't hold on while carrying that many bundles? Well, just never you mind about that. Go on now, up the ladder, you silly little thread. :approve: :smile:

<Artman runs down to the basement and throws the faulty breaker>

ZAAAPPP!

nothing new?
 
  • #7,590
Franzbear, what are you doing lying around here on the ground? You have shingles to carry onto the roof. What's that? Quit mumbling, I can't make out anything you're saying. Something about a cable on the ladder? Oh, I'm sure that's just to stabilize it so you don't fall off. Now hop on up. Oh, while you're heading up there, can you take this bucket of tar for around the flashing? Well, it's easier if you carry a bucket in each hand, you'll be more balanced.

Now, off you go!

*Talks into walkie talkie* Okay Artman, he's back on again...give it another go.[/size]

ZZZZZZZAAAAAAAPPPPP![/size] sizzle[/size] Tzzzttttzzzz[/size] ZAAAAPPPPPP![/size]

I can't take it! *pulls gun out* *aims*

BAM!

BAM!

AAAAHHH![/size]
crap, I missed, all he did was fall off...
 
  • #7,592
*sighs*
FRANZBEAR! How many times do I have to tell you quit loafing around on the ground and to get those shingles up on the roof?! I swear, kids nowadays are so useless! If you don't climb up yourself, I'm going to have to hoist you up![/size]

*Ties rope around Franzbear's neck. Tosses other end around the chimney. Hooks end up to the back of the truck.* Okay, yomamma, I think it's time for your first driving lesson. Floor It![/size]
 
  • #7,593

oh well...

VVVVRRRROOOOOMMMMM![/size]

I didn't know volts wagons went 200mph!
I can't see the roof from here, let's walk back
-20 mins later-
oh no... :rolleyes: franzbear's neck is broken. Dr.Moonbear at the killthread local hospital will fix him up!

nno franzbear, we can't afford to go to the savethread hopital
 
  • #7,594
Thanks guys. <snort> (blows nose)

After a hard day at work, coming home to see the attention little Franzbear is getting just warms the cockles of my heart. :approve:

Well, I'm not exactly a T.D. (Thread Doctor), but I'm sure I can patch him up good as new. Okay, hold still while I wrap this duct tape around your neck. No, no, I have to make it nice and tight or the bones won't mend properly. :bugeye: Quit making faces at me! *gives an extra tug to the duct tape* That'll teach you to make faces at your mother!
