Okay, now that I’m quickly approaching the 100 post milestone, I’ve been looking back at some of the contributions, and have found in several cases that I am the last poster on dead subjects. Is it because I am insightful and witty, or am I a thread killer? Does anyone else feel they are thread killers, or is it just me? If you really want to torture me, don’t answer, that’ll count me as yet another post killer. ---

I don’k know. I used to think I kiled threads, but I actually get there after the thread had died down. Maybe you get to the thread too late. Or you could just be a thread killer. 🙂 ---

According to the front page, there are 112,216 threads on this board. _Somebody_ has to be the last poster on each of those threads. So I wouldn’t worry about it if I were you. 🙂 ---
