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.

Thanks for adding that; I couldn't play the first one.
That cat picked a dumb time to let go. It could have taken out the cameraman if it had held on another 10th of a second or so.

I know that dating can be tough on a guy like you, Cronxeh, but this is the first time that I've ever seen someone have to resort to inflatable sheep.

Evo, believe it or not, you put a mustache on that guy (and a little less hair in the front) and that is what I look like (one of these days I'll get around to submitting a picture). Cute movies you guys! :biggrin:

But it works.

The version of Norton on my laptop notifies me if a website I go to tries to send anything like adware or spyware, etc... It quarantines the files and asks me what I want to do. It's nice because it stops the stuff before it affects the computer.

then you must be using IE

Firefox or Opera don't have this problem of AdWare, and using IE + Norton will NOT protect you from getting an adware

Actually, it has prevented me from getting adware. It's not the version for consumer (or even small business) use. The consumer version I have on my home computer does not prevent adware, however. I've hit the same website with both my computers, my laptop blocked the adware, and notified me, my home computer installed it, then when I ran a scan it showed up and I had to run the unistall tool to remove it.

Large businesses will not use firefox or opera.

I read a whitepaper on IE bug about a year ago and I think so did the people who write those adware/trojan/virii kind of 'plugs' - basically there is no way to fix Internet Explorer without redoing Windows
 
  • #5,327
I've never cared for IE, I preferred Netscape Navigator back in the olden days of yore, but was forced to use IE for work. That was so many years ago, I've forgotten what I disliked about it. Honestly though, I have never experienced any problems with it.

where's Doc? My neighbor's tortoise ran away from home yesterday so I went out looking for him. I wasn't sure where to hunt for him, but I was checking shady spots under bushes, etc. How long will he be able to survive outside?

You can't catch a tortise?


I think we're getting close to killing this thread. The posts per day are getting lesser and lesser
 
  • #5,333
what do you expect

Its Spring. Everyone is tending to their hormonal activities
 
  • #5,334
No, it's just that I've been away from home for a while. I'm back now and the posts per day will pick back up to their ordinary level. Isn't that special?

Got that virus gone. Thank goodness.

50 to 60 years, depending on his present age.

You need to italicize the word special.

I'm sure the tortoise will be able to find food, but I'm worried about him being able to find water to drink.

If it is any kind of local species I wouldn't worry a bit about it. They probably suck on dewy grass in the nights and mornings. If it's an import from somewhere wetter, then it could be a problem.
