That just means it passed out. Gotta keep holding.
I’ll redouble my efforts
Ok, y’all can stop. This thread is dead.
Dead, I tell you!
Okay, I won’t post on this thread as long as nobody else does.
Look folks, I’m dedicated to being the last poster on this thread. After all, I had 2, count 'em 2, of the last 2 posts on the old Dope when the lights went out. Some one screen shot it. It’s archived. You cannot win. You may as well throw your hat in now.
Yep.
Beck=winner thread killer!
Everyone else= losers! Non-thread killers.
Wait…that doesn’t sound right, at all. 
I’ve been the last poster in a lot of threads and it used to annoy me. Then, I figured out the reason.
Imagine it’s 1600 and Shakespeare just completed Hamlet. Would you really want to be the guy who follows that with some rinky-dink play, like Moose Murders?
I rest my case.

Very cute chela, you so funny!
Not as funny as you bless your 
You like those emojis I see.
What this thread needs is a list of our most prolific threadkillers. I actually started this a year ago but got sidetracked by the people that actually pay me. But once the old board was locked to new posts it was obviously the perfect time to snapshot all the threads and do a little data crunching. Mods locking threads is going to skew numbers in their favor so I’ve filtered the data somewhat to try to minimize that. I’ve also removed stickies. The first table is unlocked threads with one or more replies. Posters who started a thread and got nothing have their own table of honor at the bottom.

Obviously these rankings don’t include threads in the cornfield and moderator only forums that the hoi polloi don’t have access to.
If you want to know where you rank, the full spreadsheet is available here. The moderators tab only has the current lineup, I don’t know who all previously held the power.
If you want to do your own analytics, the thread list is here (58M download only). Truly interesting to just browse the titles. 115 threads about zombies.
And finally for the true masochists, the raw data is here (38M zip).
As there is nothing more to be said, it’s time to let this thread go into the light.
Well that killed it.
yep, sure did
Handy would have been able to kill this thread somehow.
Anyway, I hereby decree the next poster will get a chancre on their nose.
I have you know my peaches and cream complexion never has boo-boos! Harumphf!
I got some kind of thing on my ear. So, Doc Paprika seems to have a problem with aim.
Id bet its a low accuracy device. I’ve had similar problems with accuracy, at least it wasn’t in the eye
This is still breathing, I see.
