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.

So that's why Canadians are so into hugging! Group hugs! (Just for warmth, eh.)

Of course. That's also why we sell so much hair dye. As I quoted elsewhere, gentlemen prefer blondes because where there's light, there's heat. :approve:

I thought it was because they were more likely to have barbie's dimensions...

Did you enjoy the fireworks Franzbear? :smile:

Well, your uncle Artman has another surprise for you. :smile: I've come to take you swimming! :smile: I have these special motorized swim trunks for you. :smile: They're still in the prototype stage, but with the electric motor you should be able to get some incredible speeds. :smile:

Of course i still have a few bugs to work out in a method to stop or turn...and I haven't worked out a way to plug it in without using several extension cords...oh and it is kind of heavy...and there is a slight chance of electrocution...

It'll be fun! :smile:

Nothing that can walk upright has Barbie's dimensions. (Not that it's a requirement...)

Your Aunt Evo wants to come along and watch you go swimming, Franzbear. You don't mind right? :smile:

Got the generator gased up aunty Evo?

What's that Franzbear? Oh that's just for light and to power the bathing suit. You want to go real fast right? And it get's kind of dark out there in the lake. :smile:
 
  • #2,112
Oh and don't forget those lead swimfins I got you. Yeah they're a little heavy, but they won't rust and they should last longer than those cheap rubber things everyone else wears. :smile:

This is going to be such fun! :biggrin:

Oh and don't worry about the generator being too noisy, no one will hear you... :devil: I mean it. o:)

Don't worry about any of this stuff, Moonbear. Kevlar doesn't breathe anyhow. (Take it from one who has worn a bullet-proof vest in Vegas.)

Oh, little franzbear, isn't your Uncle Artman being so silly tonight. :smile: There's no need for that generator and all those extension cords. :smile: I'm sure your electric swim suit will work just fine hooked up to a car battery. It's more portable that way. :smile: Here, we'll just strap the battery to your back...like this...and then we'll run the cables around your neck...like this. Nice and tight now, we don't want it to fall off. And then we just connect them to the swimsuit...right there. All set kiddo! :approve:

Well, plenty of things fall into that category. Apparently we've been blessed with a PF e-child. :approve:

At least you're younger than the last father of an e-child of mine (alas, zoobybear and moonshoe never call, never write, I think they've forgotten all about their mother. :rolleyes:)

Relax pal. She's just angling for child support. You weren't involved. And it wasn't immaculate conception. Just... well, a string fell off of something and to avoid embarrassment she passed it off as a thread-birth.

Hey Evo; How about making this thing a 'stickie' so I don't have to waste precious scheming time looking for it?

Nope, that's part of the challenge. It wouldn't be much of a game if it stayed stuck at the top.

SEE! I am not the only one who wants to see the demise of this thread...THREAD, this is not THREAD this is a blooming trans Atlantic cable. Only with no information content.

I say it should be unwound, dethreaded, perhaps we could use it to weave a tapestry. The Beyond hope tapestry. It could start with Gregg cradling his little baby site and wading into the vast unknowns of the internet. Slowly he gathers his mentors, and they nurture the cute little forum and watch it grow slowly and carefully. Spreading knowledge and banning crackpots to the bit bucket in the sky. Then one day the Moonbear arrives, then the tribleleddog and the franznigth. Between them the brew up the thread from HELL! Then the true DANGER arose...

KILL it KILL It now before it devours us ALL...

Some of us just try harder. This thread is setting some new standards, I just hope I get mine low enough to meet them.

Say, don't you ever sleep?? Are you at the end of a day or just starting a new one?
 
  • #2,131
I really cannot believe that this thread has brought me down to the depths that it has. I was just reading through some the post and found myself laughing out loud. My stepson, sitting across the room at his computer, looks at me and says "What?" ... I am caught.. how many times have I said to him as he is laughing out loud at the contents of his fourms, which surely consistist of childish tolet humor, "Keep it to yourself, it can't be that good."


Sigh, I have lost the moral high ground. :redface:

I'm going to sleep just as soon as I finish typing this response. It's 3:00 am here, and I have to be up at about 7-8 for work. I had to cruise around cleaning up loose threads for a bit. Then I noticed that nobody on my buddy list was on line, so I figured I could quit. Then I saw a question from Joel aimed at me personally, so I answered it and ended up in a bit of a discussion. Just when I got finished with that and figured it was safe to leave, you showed up. Naturally, I couldn't trust you to not be up to something, so I had to check. The thing is, I always feel as if I'm being rude it I just go away in the middle of an exchange, so I wait until everyone else quits. (I'll have to get over that.) It wouldn't be so bad, except I just realized about 15 minutes ago that I had to set the damned clocks ahead. That chopped an hour off my planned sleep, but it's too late to do anything about it.
Anyhow, I'm gone now. Catch you sometime tomorrow.

Is this any way to speak of your own illegitimate echild.
Poor little Franzbear.

Come on Franzbear, let's go take that swim. Bring the battery your mom gave you.

I think we'll plug you into the generator too. :smile:

Let me start the generator.

Plllllt,
Plllllllt,
BuuuuuAppppllllt,
PPPPRRAPTtttttMuuuuuuuuuuuummmmmmmm.

There it goes. :smile: Now let's plug in those extension cords...Here let me help you over to the water...Uh, I'll wait back here, I...Uh, don't want to get my shoes wet. o:)

What's that? The water is cold? Not for long, once those cords hit the water, you should warm up pretty quickly. :smile:

ZING, ZAP! FFFRRRAAAPPPP!

Wow, and I thought the fireworks were bright. :-p

No doubt a night of drunken debauchery and sin. And I have one question for you:

I fully planned to egg you on mercilessly. It turned out that the eggs weren't rotten though, so I ate them instead. :approve:

I guess I have been pretty naughty even without the egging, so no harm done. Now start helping with the jello, we still have to set up the cameras and video taping machines, and...

Someone still has to ask Moonbear. :rolleyes:
