Sorry, **An Gadaí** , but this is not a trainwreck, but a runaway train. It will keep going until the wheels blow off or the engine gives out. The latest word is that the Mods will lock this at ten pages.

Get them in now.

I must admit that the information you request is classified. Try the Popcorn song again and it will all be clear.

Now we have to call in the thread cleaners. Step aside, I have this under control. The process will take about two days and you will not be able to post until then. Well, best of luck to ya’

Well, this is my first post in three months, but hey, this kind of thread is my bag, baby. Just for luck, here’s my thread-killing post from April 2004:

We dont need to kill this thread. At this rate, the board will self-destruct in a wave of increasingly lengthy time-outs and do it for us.
