Does one of you manage a threadshit assignment schedule, or is it just turn-based?

If you’d like to report a perceived violation of the rules, use the report function rather than junior-modding.

As I see it, if men demand to be able to pant and drool about something as mild as the sight of a woman in a bikini, women ought to be able to voice their weariness about it.

I ain’t no squealer, and will henceforth keep my own weariness unvoiced.

So you’re allowed to threadshit if you are a woman. Right. Got it.

That’s got nothing on items H through J on page 163 of the 1979 Sears Catalog. Now _that_ is **smokin’**.

Actually, if you really looked at both the sites I link to, there are about as many naked male butts as female butts. I’m an Equak-Opportunity Offender.

All I could find online was the 1979 Sears Christmas Catalog. [Page 163 has a bunch of jewelry](http://www.flickr.com/photos/wishbook/72230629/in/set-1360453). Um..yeah?

What’s an Equak-Opportunity Offender? Is it dangerous? Is there a registry for that sort of thing? I’m concerned.

It’s a research project to determine if electronic ducks’ sexist quacks will echo.

This billboard doesn’t even register in the top 1000 billboards of all time. I mean, a lot of those “Your Ad Here!” billboards that can’t even manage to sell their space are better than that billboard.

If you’re going to make a claim about something being “the best” on The Straight Dope, you better bring your A game.

As it stands, F.

Upon further review by the moderation staff, **DiosaBellissima** ’s posts which prompted the above note have been judged to have been threadshitting. Diosa, please do not express yourself this way outside the Pit.

The above quoted note is now rescinded.

No, not really.

Maybe I should’ve titled it “Best.Billboard I’ve seen in a while but maybe not _ **the** _ best.Ever”

Song of the Open Road

I think that I shall never see  
A billboard lovely as a tree  
Indeed, unless the billboards fall  
I’ll never see a tree at all.
