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'm voting we make you go barefoot so you'll have enough thread to make a larger breechcloth, preferably, one that covers a little in the back as well as the front! :eek:
:blushing: don't tell everyone I need a larger than average breechcloth, it's embarrassing.

I guess that would be similar to wearing shoes several sizes too big to try to impress the women?

Alright, we're going to have to do loincloth inspections now. All you guys line up. *grabs salad tongs to lift loincloths and ruler for measuring*

Should we stand at ease, or at attention? What is that electric poker looking thingy in your other hand, it doesn't look like a ruler?

i'm going to cover this thread in spam. And whoever wants to kill it has to lick all the spam off. Even between the threads toes

Eeeewwwww! Spam and toe jam! I think this has just turned into the PF Fear Factor thread! Whoever can suppress their gag reflex enough to withstand tribdog and Artman walking around in only loincloths and eating spam and toe jam wins! Now we just need one more stunt. This one needs to be the one that requires physical agility. How about tight-rope walking across the thread suspended between the roofs of two high-rise buildings.

*puts own clothespin and keeps the thread rolling*

They're wearing that much? I've been naked in here all day.

Only if the two high rises are under water and you're surounded by hungry maneating sharks, without any safety equipment.

The stakes are just that high.

*vomits on franz* Sorry, after that last bit about you running around here naked all day, I just couldn't keep it down. But I do feel much better now. Good enough for yet another day of thread-hunting.

You're welcome. :redface: What do you guys think this place is, "Lord of the Flies" or something?
Yup. We're all running around in loincloths.


Except Franz, he's naked and Dex is there with him.

Franz,...That's a huge pair of b@lls u got there...:-p
I don't know. Sounds suspiciously knowledgeable to me. :rolleyes: Of course I have no real way of verifying this data (nor do I hope to).


Dex getting upset and leaving yet? :-p

dextercioby said:
P.S.Franz should be the one upset...After all,huge b@lls mean DISFUNCTIONALITY...

Elephantitis comes to mind. Though, maybe they didn't mean quite that large, in which case some enlargement can happen when one is, um, reaching critical pressure, and not, um, seeing to the proper operation of the pressure-release valve. Don't worry franz, the latter condition resolves itself with no long-term damage other than psychological. :-p

P.S. I feel the need to point out that someone rearranged all the smilies on my screen again a few days ago! :-p and :-p must have been fighting again and needed to be separated, and they put o:) between :devil: and :!). Must have been getting a bit too lusty there. Of course :blushing: and :shy: are rather embarrassed to be sitting next to :zzz: while he's snoring so loudly. Or, maybe it's :devil: making that one :blushing: blush. Afterall, :eek: seems outright shocked about whatever :devil: just did to :blushing: and is just plain disgusted by the behavior he sees in the row in front of him. :frown: looks pretty upset he's stuck sitting next to o:) and can't do what :devil: is doing. isn't quite sure if :wink: is winking at him or at :!), but I think :cool: knows exactly what they're all up to. Who knows what prank :rolleyes: just played on :redface:, but :rolleyes: is trying to look innocent while poor :redface: is mortified, and is annoyed he wasn't invited to join in the prank. :cry: hasn't figured out it's a prank yet and is really upset, and :rolleyes: just doesn't know what to do about all that crying next to him, which is absolutely delighting :biggrin:, but irritating :mad:. :approve: is really quite naughty and enjoying watching the entire spectacle from the backrow, while :bugeye: can't believe everything that's going one without anyone stopping it, though from the other side of the backrow, :smile: is in absolute hysterics watching everyone else, though :smile: seems to be pretty mellow. Possibly :mad: is just angry that :smile: brought in some elicit substances to the event and isn't sharing. :confused: is a bit of a geek and just doesn't get it; all this social interaction is just too much to take in. Oh, and never forget that heckler, :-p up in the front row. Hope I didn't miss anybody!

In case the smilies don't display the same on everyone's screen, here's the order I see them...this week:
:smile: :smile: :mad: :approve: :bugeye:
:-p :cry: :rolleyes: :biggrin: :confused:

I have not noticed too many changes in smilies, but I usually have most of the ones I need memorized :cry: :smile: :-p :-p :devil: :approve: :wink:
 
  • #497
I don't know, it's a strange thing that I don't often need to click on them to use them, but I still notice when they move. I think it's like knowing where all your students sit in the classroom, and even if they don't have assigned seats, you notice when someone changes their habit and sits somewhere different.

Moonbear, that was great! Perhaps I should delete all posts after yours and let you be the thread killer? Seems like a good last post to me. :-p

And why DO the smilies keep moving? :devil:

Good question, same thing happened to me. How are blind people supposed to post if greg keeps rearranging everything? I don't think this complies with the 'Americans with Disabilities Act' :wink:

Absolutely! You always have the best ideas! :biggrin: Your Fauchon chocolate is on the way![/size]

And why DO the smilies keep moving? :devil:

I don't know. They do seem to be quite a rowdy bunch, but I haven't really seen any of them fighting to need to be separated. Every time they move, I wind up looking through the whole list seeing if there's a new one in there somewhere. As long as the codes for them don't change again, all will be okay.

Ye'd be riskin a pirate mutiny. Arrrrghhhhh (Or is it a nerd rebellion, it's hard to say.)

That was a real cool post Moonbear.

Thanks, and glad nobody bothered pointing out the typo either. I'm pretty sure :smile: has illicit substances, not elicit ones! Though, I don't really know what an elicit substance would be. Maybe they're even better than illicit ones?

Unfortunately, you were all supposed to stop and be dazzled by all the smilies and forget to reply.

Say, Tribdog, are you planning to reply in your "Rotten PF Members" thread in the Brain Teasers forum?
no I don't think I will. you are right, I am wrong. I messed up. I think I'm going to have to give up on the brain teasers. I hurt myself everytime.

Hey, you can't hijack an already hijacked thread! We have protocols to follow around here. :-p

You guys should just stop trying to delude yourselves.


Some of you may ask, "What in hell is Ged talking about?"

Simply put, we all know - instinctively or not, that the guy who posts the last post in this thread is the GREATEST champion of thread killing. :-p

Looks like this is now the official "random chat not worth a thread of its own" thread.
GD never sticks to a single topic. A thread here is lucky to go with 4 post before it turns into random bs :cool:
