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.

Tell him... I can't! I'm a moron and I'm scared. Hmmmm... I should though, cos I'm pretty sure I don't ever want to see anyone else and he's lovely so if he didn't feel the same way, he'd be nice and forget about it and act as though I never said anything. I'll tell him tomorrow. Maybe.

icvotria, seek enlightenment!

I'm enlightened but thanks for the concern.

I just realized that as I read these posts I assign voices to people. You all sound differently. I wonder what I sound like.

Poor thing is so over worked it's too tired to eat. We must kill the thread!

I don't assign voices to people. But I'm interested to know what your mental image of my voice is.

I can tell you right now, it's not what I actually sound like.

Awwwwww! That's too cute. Forget Mike, I should get a kitten.

If you were enlightened then your emotions wouldn't fling you around that way.
 
  • #6,129
Yes they would! What else are they for?!?
 
  • #6,130
The emotional self should be part of the true mind, but not control it. Emotions tell animals what to do. In enlightenment you rise above the animal plane and make decisions out of true free will.
 
  • #6,131
Yadda yadda yadda. Animals are great, and more free than most people I know. I see what you're saying though, but it's a bit Vulcan for me.

How about in the one I just posted in the Disney thread? I realize now the others all make me look like I have red hair.
There's not really enough of it showing to tell. I guess it's more light brown there. Also, my monitor is calibrated for Pantone matching. I'm not sure if I see things on it the same way that other people do.

Either Andy Griffith or Daffy Duck, depending upon the post.

You sound like Mr. Bean, except you don't make as much sense.

Ignore him, Vickie. He's trying to rot your brain so there'll be someone here who can understand him.

How was traffic?
Surprising not too bad. I didn't leave until about 6:50 and by then it was alright. :smile: Thanks for asking. :approve:

:smile: Oh, that is just TOOOOO adorable! :biggrin:

icvotria, if you tell him and he doesn't take you back, you're no worse off than you are now, but if he does want you back, you could be so much better off. Take the chance. If it's true love, it's worth it! And from what you've described so far, it very well might be the real deal. If the only reason you broke up with him really was because you wanted to spare his feelings from having to wait for you while you were away, then that tells me you really do love him...only someone who is truly in love would let someone go to avoid hurting them.

Moonbear I thought you hated cats.

Should I take franzbear sky-diving or bungie-jumping?

On the contrary, in enlightenment nothing is forced (like a Vulcan might force himself to logic). The freedom from emotion that enlightenment brings is a simple result of experiencing deeper truths and feelings. Forcing yourself to be unemotional is not a way of enlightenment. Calming yourself by meditating is a more realistic metaphor for the peace of the enlightened one.

I assign voices to people too. The only person whose real voice I know is DocToxyn's and it's not at all like I pictured. As for you, I know the voice I assign to you isn't what you really sound like, because in my mind, your accent is the same as mine. :smile:

Go bungie-jumping, with him as the cord.

I don't hate them; I just don't want one as a pet of my own. Given my current lifestyle, I'm a bad enough parent for a plant, let alone any animals.

Go for a long weekend with him and do both! Here, take my old bungee cord. Don't worry about that dry rot, it should be just fine for franzbear. :devil:

Then I'll die.

Franzbear, no! you're putting the suit on wrong. You don't tie the cord to your ankles, you tie it around our neck. No, I can tie it around my ankles, not you. you go first, jump to the highest place off of the ground *slips crane man some money* ready, Go! WHy was there a cushion at the bottom ?! Franz is your neck alright? Some good anthrax will get that pain away. crap, he carries aleeve with him [/size] Franz? do ma a favor, go back and tell moonbear to give you a Z-A-P with the elect-chro-egack-yulater I'll be there in a minute

Maybe we should all donate a 5 second clip of our voices to a thread entitled "Member Voice Thread"
 
  • #6,144
Moonbear, what good advice you give! Thanks. I think I'll come back and read all this when I'm not as drunk as a skunk and it's a more reasonable hour and then decide what to do. Chances are though, I'll get piiiiised tomorrow (there's a big party) and just blurt out something dumb cos I'm indiscriminately impulsive. I'm going to go to sleep now, the sun's shouting at me. Night night!

You can create a wav file of your voice (I haven't done that in a long time).

how do I get it online?

Consider it an opportunity to learn from my mistakes. At least they're useful to someone. I just wish someone had given me my own advice 10 years ago! :frown:

Sweet dreams and have fun at tomorrow's party. We'll see you after that I suppose. :biggrin:
