AI Thread 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.

Here, Huck. Have a roll of Red Green's patented Moonbear silencer. <hands over duct tape>

Oh, we better bring along a lot of duct tape if we're going to travel to some secluded corner of the universe. It might come in handy for other purposes when you don't want to just float away.

Careful with that; you know how hard it is to remove from a merkin. :-p
On the other hand, I guess it would save you having to pack the bikini wax.

Bloody hell! It's no wonder I never get anything done. It sure doesn't seem like that many while I'm doing it. :eek:

And on that note, I'm going to pack it in for tonight. Gotta work in the morning, and dart league banquet tomorrow night, so not much rest ahead. Hey Moonbear, any smilie party for Brewnog's birthday today? I didn't see a thread. Anyhow, I'll look for the answer tomorrow.

Yep, just got a thread started (before I saw this one...we must have both been thinking the same thing simultaneously). No smiley party there yet, but it's not just brewnog's birthday today, so I had to find three gifts, not just one. I think this calls for a bigger party too.

He's just such a natural with the kid, isn't he? :approve:

As warped as it may sound, I try to think of things I do with my own kids and it all just comes together... :rolleyes: :bugeye:

We can't even eat him if we run out of food, he'd probably be all tough and stringy anyway.
Eat him! Franzbear, although just a baby thread, is over 5000 posts big, has survived fire, bombs, gun attacks, mass murderers, pyscho killer attempts, mad scientific killer attempts, freezing, drowning, electrocution, electro ejaculator probing, and other attempts on it's life too numerous to mention. There is no way you guys are going to eat Franzbear.

On the other hand, should Franzbear get hungry and you two are the only ones around... :bugeye:

Just Danger's antiquated equipment. I have no problem viewing your bars on my Mac. I have a small screen (12" powerbook) so have to do some scrolling for the larger versions. I just can't quote or re-create them.

It took me all night! :-p :devil: Someone revealed the secret earlier in this thread. I can't do your homework for you, it's against board rules, you'll have to go find the answer for yourself. :-p

:smile:

Oh, okay...on the forum main page where the threads are all listed, click on the number to the right of the thread that is the number of replies to the thread. A list will pop-up with the rankings of who posted in the thread and how many replies they each have. It's a pop-up window, so you have to turn off any pop-up blocker you have on to view it.

Moonbear posted about 1/4th of the posts in this thread. This is her home. The rest of us are just frequent visitors here. I'm just trying to keep my seat at the Thanksgiving day dinner table so I can get a piece of franzbear after he gets all fat and juicy. :-p

You know I'd drive you crazy if I was the only person you had to talk to in that secluded corner of the universe, don't you?
Talking wasn't what I had in mind. I figured if I could build an interstellar rocketship then you could figure out how two people could start a healthy, growing population. All that science takes a lot of hard work. You would have to figure out how to make plants and animals to eat from leftover rations and a basket of kittens. It's always good to have a biologist around when you're trying to restart civilization.

Just remember, I get a full quarter of him, the rest of the vultures can fight over their portions. :biggrin:

The following errors occurred when this message was submitted: said:
1. The text that you have entered is too long (22047 characters). Please shorten it to 20000 characters long.

The way I got the two errors was, the "message too long" error counts tags as well as text, and the "message too short" error only counts text. I had 22047 characters of color tags, and no text outside of the tags.

Hey, you're right, a green peach would make a good baseball. Maybe it won't hurt as much as the rock when he misses a catch. Well, it's still going to be a few months before there are any peaches on the trees. Huck, did you know baseball season is going to start late this year? Yep, not until June or July. But you can play with that nice football MIH got for you until then. :biggrin:

I just dropped a 12" knife and it got me on my toe, just barely. However, it did make a 1/8" nice cut in my toe, although I would have preferred it cut with the grain.

When you dropped the knife did you stick out your foot to stop it?
