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.

Back of the line, Jack! You might have been here longer, but some of us with no actual lives have been putting in a lot more effort. (The accents alone should be worth extra points.) :biggrin:

LITTLE

Have you put your LITTLE baby on the scales recently? This monster is out of control, and growing faster all the time.

KILL IT... KILL IT NOW... before it overwhelms the whole site.

Today PF.. Tomorrow... ...

Who me? :blushing:

Why I am a happily married (there is the oxymoron to end all oxymorns) man I would never drool on Evo's picture. Besides, we have it all worked out, As soon as I complete my time machine I will go back 30 yrs (or was that 20?) meet up with Evo and we will each save ourselfs a first bad marriage. :approve: So there, you all back off, it is all arranged.

Why Integral, you sly devil.
:devil:

You just can't execute little Franzbear (the name of this monster thread that happens to be the illegitimate love child of Moonbear and Franznietche)! He's too young to be executed.


Come on Franzbear. You come with me. No no, leave on the flammable PJ's. I'll bring the ether, the gasoline and the LOX and...What are those for? Those are for the camp fire on our hunting trip. Let's go. Okay, you can carry the matches, the propane lighter, the butane lighter, the sparkplug and capacitor apparatus, but don't drop them. o:)

Yep, it's true.

I have our stock portfolio all ready! Should we plan on "inventing" Windows? :biggrin:

Do you suppose we could get a jump on the Woz and Jobs while we are at it? Maybe we should find little Billy Gates and teach him to play D&D, perhaps he would be so busy killing monsters that he would not bother to start a company. The possibilities are endless!

Aww, it's just a little chubby. We'll take it out on a nice camping trip with its Uncle Artman and get it some exercise.

If Queen Evo won't let me kill it maybe I should just trim some excess... Who should be declared excess?... Would I be in DANGER by naming any names?

Of course this implies that you have read all 222 pages... did you miss the part where we had a deep philosophical discussion about the meaning of life and how it relates to network forums. It was a real concern that perhaps someone who would take the time to read all 222 pages about nothing might be missing a big bite of life.

On the other hand it was felt that anyone who did not read 222 pages of nothing and simply assumed that it was about nothing might also be missing some of the better things in life.

But in general I think we can conclude that you are pretty much correct. This thread is pretty much a waste of electrons..


Can I KILL IT NOW?? Please my beautiful Queen Evo, let me kill it!

You just read all 222 pages?


edit... looks like Integral beat me to it, and with much better content too

How could I have missed this one!

Of course I have been debunking Time travel. If I did not discourage the genius posting in the Theory Development forum, they may beat me to the final solution. Then they may go back before I can get there and convince Evo that they are me, thus dooming Evo to another first bad marriage. We cannot have that!

Nope, we'll just keep replaying it along with old Seinfeld re-runs. :-p

Johnnie -come- lately?? Whats that mean. I have been contributing to this thread from the start (check post #44) that was back in early Feburary...


FEBRUARY ... No thread that old can be healthy I recommend euthanasia...

You're one to talk about being a Johnny-come-lately! When did you appear? Well after the 1000th post. Very few of us have had the stamina to care for our baby from conception to the brilliant teenager it now is. Isn't it just the smartest and cutest thread you've ever seen? :approve:

There are far older threads than this one around. Little franzbear just happens to be much more mature for its age. Afterall, it had to develop street smarts at a very young age, what with all these killers around and all. You couldn't possibly expect a stupid quetion thread to keep up, could you? I mean, I do feel sorry for it. With everyone telling that one how stupid it is all the time, it just never had chance. Sure, little franzbear has had all the advantages I can provide for it, but I'm confident it would have been a bright, mature thread even without all those advantages. :approve:

I don't know, it may be a teenager compared to the stupid question thread, but its growth rate is unnatural. It is either possessed or has cancer. In either case it should be KILLED!

Please Evo, my sword (or was that ax?) is at your service and waiting your word.
