I was worried about you, poor little thread. Someone had you all locked up. You were probably tied and gagged, laying on a mattress in someones basement waiting for them to come and do awful, cruel, vicious, things to you.

Mattress? Why would we give the thread a mattress? It was chained to a pole. :devil:

That's awful! :eek:

Now, shut up and get down in the hole thread. I don't care if it is dark and cold, you don't need to see anything, and I'll make you a suit out of the skins of other dead threads to keep warm.

Oooh, creeping myself out again.

We thought you had abandoned the thread! Where have you been? The thread has felt very neglected lately.

Suits are normally made out of thread!

A horribly gruesome practice, isn't it? I mean, think of all those innocent threads being slaughtered, just to wear them. :frown: :eek:

Mine's bigger.



Box of chocolates that is.
 
  • #1,417
^ so yours is smaller when it comes to other things?
 
  • #1,418
Integral said:

Nope. Is the box completely filled with chocolate? And is the box itself made of chocolate? And, what kind of chocolate is it? :biggrin:
 
  • #1,419
Can chocolate be woven into flexible cloth?

BicycleTree said:

I don't think so. Chocolate is pretty brittle when cool, and warmer it melts. If the thread was made of chocolate, I would have eaten it on the first day; it would never have survived this long.

:rolleyes: Hmm...I wonder what chocolate covered thread tastes like though?

Hmm must have been a coincidence, I thought about the 10 character rule, but I had a few words so I thought I would make it, and I did :smile:

Wow that was quick. I was just staring at gd, and I saw that you had posted last on this thread, and I thought what in the hell.

I think tribdog got off his leash again. Anyone seen him?

Just luck. I sensed you had posted and felt compelled to return to PF. What can I say, I've had such a long, tough day. I had a nearly 2 hour lunch as a good-bye for a visiting student, then helped her move the last of her stuff out of her apartment (a bunch of us had loaned her things so she would have some basic furnishings and cooking utensils, etc.), then back just in time for a reception, now I'm on PF, and soon will head out to dinner. Yep, really rough day. Actually, I do have stuff that needs to get done, just nothing I could get done in the small blocks of time I had today, so I will pay for it tomorrow when I have to work this weekend. :cry:

Nope. Last I saw him, he was in the technology forum trying to find out how to stop someone from using his computer to send spam, or something like that. He just got high speed internet recently, and apparently didn't get a firewall with it, so I think he needs to do some damage control before he'll be back.

Yeah, today was such a rough day. :rolleyes: Way too much food for me in one day. I'm sooooo full. :biggrin: These are the days that make academia a wonderful career choice. :approve:

Oh, that Toby. What's scary, is there really are people making donations! It's up from the $12,000 it was at last time someone sent me a link to that site!

They had what's his name, the weird basketball player with all the piercings and tattoos who posed naked for Peta ( I personally thought that was a better ad for convincing people that we needed more fur to cover people up)...Dennis Rodman...that's it...anyway, he was on the Tonight Show, talking about posing for Peta, and then started talking about going out running with the bulls! Uh huh, he's really committed to the cause. LOL!

But, um, yeah, where's Peta when you really need them? But, you have to admit, it's a great scam! If he gets the money, he's 50 grand richer, and if he doesn't get it all, nobody's going to complain if he decides it was close enough to give the little bunny a reprieve.

Which is what makes it such a great scam. :biggrin: Send me $50K or I'll eat my pet chicken! :devil:

Hey! How do we know he even has the bunny? Maybe he just bought a picture of a bunny and he's faking us out. I mean, think about it... if it was a real bunny, wouldn't Hypatia have sniffed it out and eaten it already?
 
  • #1,445
How long has the site been up? 19k, and it took him what, a few hours to make the site, a few bucks for the bunny, and of course the bandwidth on the site, that sounds great. *thinks of making scam websites and living easy for life*
 
  • #1,446
Who's to say that he really did get $19,000, though? Seems hard to believe to me. He might be doing that just to make his site look good.

On the other hand, browsing the site, I see that he has a store of some kind. Many (maybe all) of the products have fake pictures on them so it may be a fake store. I don't know. But if it's real that may be where he's getting his money.

Why lie about the $19,000 though? There is no real reason to. I find it more plausible that he has in fact got that money, rather than that he his faking that.

Quick, Hypatia! Get over here and fetch that bunny! If it's going to be eaten, then it should be by us. (I'm still mad that the first one got away. :mad: )

Meh, that cute bunny is just a tough old rabbit by now. It is cute in the pictures though. I like its caramel color.
