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.

What about ogling?
Typing "ogling" and then clicking the "I'm feeling lucky" button sure works for me: http://urbanlegends.about.com/library/weekly/aa072600a.htm.

Oh, wait a minute. I guess I should have read a little further:

It goes without saying — I hope — that it's unwise to take medical advice from supermarket tabloids and forwarded emails. Those who wish to increase their lifespans should try practicing common sense on a regular basis. It's more likely to help than any amount of breast ogling.

I find it less efficient than googling, but far more satisfying. :wink:

I just googled google, and the 5th website from the top is a critic of google :eek:

:smile: At least nobody can accuse them of being biased or censoring their searches in any way!

Hey! I just tried the same thing and it gave me the same site. I thought it was supposed to pick something more randomly when you clicked the "I'm feeling lucky" button!

Im feeling lucky is usually the first, or top, result.

Thanks, but I'll save it for later. With you psychos all flitting around these threads like farts in a frying pan, who has time to go somewhere else. I can't keep up as it is. :biggrin:

So, since it's only a few minutes from midnight here, and I'm thinking about chocolate, and we were talking about Toby the rabbit before...what part of the chocolate rabbit do you eat first? I'm a traditional bite the ears off first type.

You fry farts? I hope you don't mind if I decline any invitations for home-cooked dinners at your place. :smile:

Where the hell are you, anyhow? I'm on 9:49.

I don't celebrate Easter, of course, but I never turn down chocolate. I strike at the point of least resistance, which does usually turn out to be the ears. Sometimes the feet, though, if they're small...

Remember the afterburners on my car? The methane production isn't restricted to my being in a vehicle. Why pay for natural gas for your appliances? :biggrin:

I could never eat my chocolate easter bunnies, so they would sit on my dresser until they grew fur. :blushing:

That's 'cuz you're on left coast time, and I'm on right coast time. :smile:

I don't celebrate it either, at least not in the religious sense, but I do celebrate gift-giving, chocolate-eating holidays. :biggrin: And tomorrow is "Buy Easter Candy at Half Price Day." :-p

Hmm, I was beginning to think that today was not easter. Usually yahoo and google make pretty graphics for each holiday, and I thought there would be a thread here about Easter. I guess people just do not care about it.

That is one thing that I've really missed in the past 2 or 3 years. Used to be, the local IDA Drugs would put their surplus 1 lb. solid chocolate bunnies on sale for $1.00. I'd buy a dozen or so, toss 'em in the freezer (yes, with the 26-year-old moose), and eat 'em all year. Then it became a Rexall, and they don't sell that kind any more. I don't like hollow bunnies--too many crumbs.

Ok, I started an Easter thread, you lazy bums :-p

Those $1 rabbits sound like quite a deal, although I am not a big fan of chocolate.
 
  • #1,489
Chocolate is poisonous to some animals. I wonder if it could kill a thread?

Here thread, have some nice Easter candies. Have some chocolate rabbits, and cadbury eggs, and chocolate covered malted balls. o:)

<stuffs chocolate into the thread, being careful to avoid Moonbear, Evo and it would seem Danger as well, so that they don't grab it away from the thread> :devil:

<Danger seruptitiously swaps Toby (yeah, Hypatia found him) for the chocolate bunny and runs like greased bacon through a goose's ass.> :biggrin:

Did I do that right? Never tried it before.

Looks ok to me. Personally I use *makes a quick note* either way it is clear, imo.

Okay, the thread can have the Cadbury eggs (I never much liked them, though haven't had them in a very long time, so who knows). The malt balls are MINE though! The thread can't have them! (That was the one candy I could make myself sick eating because I'd eat so many of them...well, that and M&Ms).

So you're the one responsible for all of those poor malts out there that are incapable of reproduction... :rolleyes:

PS: Are you aware of your impact upon the brewery industry?
 
  • #1,494
If malts become extinct we'll know who to blame. I'm going to call PETM and tell them to keep an eye on Moonbear.

Should we start an International Malt Preservation Society and put her on the enemies list? :biggrin:

Someone had to put a stop to their rampant reproducing. Malts are incredibly prolific! :smile:

Wellll... alright then, but there'll have to some sort of quota. If they become endangered (parden the expression), a lot of beer drinkers are going to looking for you.

Chocolate covered malt balls have always been a favorite of mine.
