This thread has jumped the shark a bit, I think way back in page 17 it was a lot more with it now what it is is strange and weird. ---

Just because you’re the OP, you can’t tell me what to do. But here, a half effort…kill, kill, kill. Are you happy now? ---

There’s a load of cartons of melons and some dudes carrying a huge pane of glass across the road, so now’s just about the right time. ---

You know that in a few days or so a mod will probably close this and say “No, [he’s] the ultimate threadkiller.” and something else about the topic having gone on long enough. 😛 ---

I seem to remember someone named…ah, I can’t remember the name. Jester maybe? Anyway, he started a thread like this a loooooooooong time back and then remade it on the one year anniversary or something in the form of a game. He called it The Last Word and it was a really fun read. The rules were simple. If you had TLW in the thread for 24 hours straight, you were “officially” the ThreadKiller. I have not read any of this topic other then the last page, so for all I know, you could all be playing this game right now, but just in case…that was the idea. ---

Can’t we all just get along? We all have a common goal. To kill this worthless, time and bandwidth consuming, insipid, exorbitant, absurd, ridiculous, irrational, and reckless thread. Some of us just want it more. Die, die, die. Kill, Kill, Kill. Now, now, NOW.
