:smile: Great song...er...thread! :smile:

Did you ever see "Shari Lewis and Lambchop", Moonbear? I think that's where I learned that song. That TV show might have been too far before your time though - it was almost before mine! I think every once in a while they run it on the cable channels, though, just for the nostalgic value.
 
  • #356
Yeah,quite a crisis of inspiration...16 lines repeating the same thing 4 (sic) times...:eek: :-p

It's actually an infinite loop, but I wasn't sure how to use LaTex to express that.
 
  • #359
ok, how 'bout
for(i=0; i < i+1;i++){
cout<< "this is the Thread that never ends,"<< endl;
cout<< "it just goes on and on, my friends,"<< endl;
cout<< "some people started posting here not knowing what it was,"<< endl;
cout<< "and now they'll go on posting here forever just because..." << endl;
}
 
  • #360
Do you think it can be compiled just like that,only the cycle...?Who knows,maybe...:confused:

Daniel.
 
  • #361
I think a While loop would have been better for this.

while(threadIsNotDead == true)
{
blah blah blah..;
}
 
  • #362
Well,let's ask Warren for a C-built-in compiler too...:-p We have to test our theories and CREATE THE NEVERENDING THREAD :devil:

Danievil.
 
  • #363
Great idea! chroot needs a new project.
We should have a lime green Compile button at the bottom of each post. :approve:
 
  • #364
Not so fast,first he must finish his major project of his life:finding a name for his girlfriend's imaginary pet tiger...Let's be patient...Good days are on the horizon...:-p

Daniel.

  • #369

  • #370

  • #371

No, it wasn't quite before my time...her actual show might have been, but she still made guest appearances on other shows, like The Muppets and the Tonight Show.

I thought we put on a 12 hour time limit to hold the title and the thread! I win! :biggrin:
 
  • #377
No,the limit is nonexistant...The last name for an indefinite amount of time wins...:wink:

So don't open the champagne yet,this one will go for a long way...:wink:

Daniel.
 
  • #378
Well, I'm opening the champagne anyway. But because you won't let me celebrate a win, I'm not going to share any with you. :-p
 
  • #379
:cry: But I'm alcoholic,i LOVE champagne...:-p Take care with it,not to end up like Trib,drunk & asleep at the early hors of the evening...

Oh, I thought you were doing a Morrison impression.

Okay, I've decided to annouce that I'm leaving this rotten thread for good.

This is the end
Beautiful friend
This is the end
My only friend, the end

Of our elaborate plans, the end
Of everything that stands, the end
No safety or surprise, the end
I'll never look into your posts ... again

It hurts to set you free
But you'll never follow me
The end of laughter and soft lies
The end of trying to make you die

This is the end.

  • #382

NO!She never will...:devil:

  • #384
hahaha u ppl are hilaroius, well one of the reasons i don't post that much is almost 20% of my posts where "thread killers" still the concept itself is so -baised:

IS the last post a thread killer or just a thread finisher by an expert finishing move ...


Ohhh no! i am in the dager now if being the thread killer again, some one post quickly, PLEEEEEEEEEEEEASE! :cry: :smile:
 
  • #385
Moonbear has won.
No thread-killer champion thread survives 18 hours all by itself; reanimation of dead threads is simply ghoulish.

Congratulations, Moonbear!

lol an expert finishing move. *pulls out katana, spins around and slices up thread from multiple angles, "fatality" *

Most threads with many poosts have gaps of at least 24 hours, usually more.

But those are not thread-killer champion threads; hence, they have an innate resilience denied to tkct's.
Moonbear has won.

Yep, Moonbear has won. I agree with arildno: This is a competitive thread, normal rules do not apply.

If moonbear won, why is this thread alive?

It isn't alive, it is in suspended animation only.
 
  • #392
Moonbear won, the thread is dead: Right now we are just poking it with a stick.

Dude, I'd like to point out that you killed the Is Love Real thread. I think it was when you started trying to make a serious point, and it just got really... unsavory. :frown:
 
  • #395
Well, you're just all standing around for me to give my acceptance speech!

The thread is mine! I think I'm going to stuff it and mount it on the wall over the fireplace. :biggrin:

Where is your acceptance speech?

That was it. :biggrin: I thought a good anti-climactic ending would be the perfect final blow to the thread. :smile:
 
  • #398
A very good acceptance speech, IMO.
Let's leave franznietszhe to pick up whatever loose ends he thinks belongs to the thread-killer champion thread (he's mistaken of course)
A generous attitude towards losers is a most becoming trait in one's personality, or what, Moonbear?

I cannot believe this! I leave you alone with my thread for one weekend, (I left specific instructions to keep an eye on Moonbear) and when I get back, there are posts all over the floor, people in and out all weekend. Everybody out! Leave now. I am back to take care of this thread. Go on, the party is over. Everyone out and take those bottles with you and those sailor suits.
