The longest thread in SDMB history

[bbs2k]

I have a vision and a dream. The heyday of SDMB does not have to be in the past, let's make the longest thread in this message board's history.

Inane thoughts, jokes, links, haikus, role playing, riddles, card games, chess games, MMORPG rants and gossip, sports rants or gossip, car stuff, celeb stuff, work stuff, life stuff; nothing is out of bounds. I'm not interested in simple post-padding, we can hold ourselves to a higher standard and contribute some type of content no matter how silly it is.

Basically anything you'd like to add that you'd like to share, but does not really warrant it's own thread.* Just tell us about a cool car you saw, or how your boss is a nice guy. You saw a traffic stop and suffered deja vu. Maybe someone corrected you on the pronunciation of their name, or you had to wait in line too long for coffee. What are you worried about? Or what internet game has you stumped? Do you think you can kill this thread, or are you just lurking?

Hey, it's worth a try.

Sounds good to me. What is our goal page count? (I could just look, but why?)

[silenus]

I'm in, even though I think it's a forlorn hope.

Favorite punchline: "Dem Fokkers vas Messerschmidts!"

I am so glad that Games/Sports finally got their own forum. Now we don't have to listen to people bitch about all the sports threads in CS. We have our own place to stand up and shout Dodgers Rule!

I wish someone would've told me kids develop memories.

It used to be so easy...."Daddydaddydaddy!! We pway wif dis now, pwease!" No, sweetie...it's time for bed. We'll play with that tomorrow. "Ok!" Of course, tomorrow comes and she has completely forgotten about it.

Last night:
"C'mon Shayla...time for bed."
"No daddy! I'm eating grapes 'n blueberries!"
"Yes, well you've been eating them for a half hour...you're totally milking the situation to try and push back bedtime. Now give 'em up...you can have more in the morning." (Said with the intention of her completely forgetting about this in the morning)

I wake up this morning to hear the following over the baby monitor:
"Daaaaaddy! Grapes 'n blueberries daddy! Come on daddy! Time for grapes 'n blueberries!"

Sheesh...kids.

Don't concern yourself with what we have to beat. Just set a goal, and aim for it.

I suggest: 1,000,004 posts.

I don't see this thread making it too far without a point. Yeah, this is the 'pointless' part of the dope, but I've seen a thread go for more than 100 pages, so it's a tall task to go that far under the mods' radar.

[brewha]

Joke thurs? How about we make up a joke that has the punch line that we hear in Men in Black? The one that ends with something like - "Mommy! This ones eating my popcorn!" I heard that Tommy Lee Jones said that it was an actual joke but was too off color to tell the rest of it.

My shirt itches.

Hey look, here's a cat picture .

(I see what you're saying. This is either going to hold the momentum it needs, or die terribly)

Aw, cutie cat.

Someone put an industrial-sized box of corn chips in the break room. But they failed to put an industrial-sized bucket of salsa in there. Cheap bastard.

[Liberal]

I shat.

[garygnu]

Haven't we done this before?

[bbs2k]

The longest thread here
Could be mindless and pointless
But Skip would close it

What do you need for a repair?

Did anyone stare?

Do these things happen in pairs?

My friend and I (both grown men) were laughing a little too hard at Roflcat and Lolcat yesterday.

And, really, who cares?

Of course not silly.

bbs2k, I'm afraid I don't see the "game" here. A random thread with posts of any topic is not a game. Please contact me by PM if you'd like to discuss this thread or its reopening.
