[sub]Note to self: mentioning boobies is a great way to jump-start a thread.
Mission: find other words equally capable of starting a ridiculous conversation on a message board.
Will test now.[/sub]
Fungus.
Note to Happy: Fungus ain’t once of them words
[sub]Okay then…[/sub]
Sausage.
Weiner might work.
Maybe fungus sausage, the vegetarian’s delight, but just sausage–nope, won’t get you anywhere close to boobies.
Boobies are right up there with Oral sex and TMI threads. Gonna be tough to find something that has that kind of appeal.
Sausage? Probably not.
Boobies are quite good.
I often utilize them in my artwork to great effect.
Anything sexual and you’ll at least get a lot of views…
Ahh, the sick minds on this board. I love it.
Ahem…
“Cecil.”
I’m gonna have to go with “nipples” myself. It seems that they–hey! Hey! HEY! Not mine! Someone else’s, damnit! No, really, stop…
…oh. That, um…tickles.
Yep. Gotta stay with the nipples.
Boobies are great - I love mine 
How 'bout “banana flavoured condoms”?
Pity, that - what guy doesn’t like having his sausage between a coupla nice boobies? 
[sub]Time to step things up…[/sub]
Pinecones.
Goatse.
Kitty.
Doodle?
Wankle-Rotary Engine
Thank you, RTFirefly, that’s exactly what I was going for.
And the converse of your statement is true as well, as least as far as the boobies in my acquaintance go.
Happy, you came close with Kitty, but there’s a synonym that may be more effective.
Meow.
How about getting the snake and the kitty together for a game or two?
“He who made kittens/Put snakes in the grass” - Jethro Tull, “Bungle in the Jungle”. It seemed appropriate after the last post.
Other thread jumpstarter words:
Jack Chick
banned
pictures
fetish
felch
gross (see TMI)
semprini?
If we’re talking about the power to bring the crowds into a thread, combined with huge numbers of replies (whether on-topic or not), then the following words seem to have quite an effect when sprinkled into a post:
GEORGE W. BUSH
and
WILLIAM J. CLINTON
Mention one of these in passing, then someone will drop in to take a pop at one of them, someone else will defend them, and before you know it, the thread has veered off into the ditch.
So let’s review: we have
BOOBIES
WIENER
ORAL SEX
TMI
G.W. BUSH
CLINTON
What a crowd!
