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.

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:

This thread is setting some new standards, I just hope I get mine low enough to meet them.
I don't think you have any worries on that account. :rolleyes:

Say, don't you ever sleep?? Are you at the end of a day or just starting a new one?
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.

Think of it as us helping you bond with your stepson. :biggrin: Or, think of this thread as a toilet humor containment area.

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

Did something happen involving vast amounts of alcohol that i don't remember :bugeye: :eek: :bugeye: ?

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




...Where are the pictures? :biggrin:

Nope, I'm pretty sure we've never named a thread before. Yet another first for this one. It's taking on a life of its own. :eek:

Pictures?! *sifts through stack of photos*

:redface: :blushing: :redface: :rolleyes: *holds lighter to stack of photos and burns them and negatives*

What do you mean pictures? There aren't any pictures. Nothing happened that required any pictures. o:)

Currently, it's looking a bit sindged (sp) because of it's swim. Wow, if this thread had hair, it's gone now! :eek: Poor little bald, burnt, bugeyed Franzbear. :bugeye::eek::bugeye:

Thank goodness Franz has his video tape, or the whole event would be lost. :approve: :biggrin:

We appreciate the effort. :-p Hey, maybe a re-enactment?! :smile: :-p

Great! You start working on the getting drunk part, I'll get the whipped cream, the gerbils, the slip-and-slide and start mixing up the jello. :biggrin:

Uh, I guess someone has to talk Moonbear into it. :rolleyes:

We in fact established quite a long time ago that it's Kevlar.

Now he's answering his own posts... :rolleyes:

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:

Why? Remember, it's easier to get forgiveness than permission. :biggrin:

Oh no, the thread has corrupted Integral. If it can do this to Integral, there is no telling what it is capable of! :bugeye:

This thread actually has THREE names if I remember correctly. Thread killer champions, Franzbear, and... "franz's nekkid body." (I think it was "franz's," but I could be wrong, might have been someone else) Remember that?

It IS made out of human hair, danger. It has to have special talismanic power to withstand what has been tossed at it. If it were mere kevlar there'd be no trace of it by now.
 
  • #2,152
I should also point out that this thread is genuinely haunted by a ghost... me. It all started way back in the post #325.

I think maybe it's one o' them monofilermint things. They's damn near invisible.
Hmm...I dunno. I thought we determined it was kevlar. What color is kevlar thread?
You want to argue with the bear, go ahead. I live in bear country and I know better than to tweak them.

Oh, it did, did it? How pleasing. *shuffles, stomps, howls*

Okay, so a kevlar boojum named Franzbear walks into a bar...

You're right, but i can't remember if it was Franz or tribdog's
