I was just wondering who the most controversial poster ever on the SDMB has been. (I wasn’t sure what forum this goes on, so sorry if this is the wrong one.) When I say ‘controversial’ I don’t mean it has to be a banned person or a troll though, it could also be an active poster if that’s what people think.

The most controversial poster I believe was the one of Cecil sitting in a one-piece bathing suit with his long blonde locks flowing in the breeze. What made it so controversial was that you could very clearly see his erect nipples through the bathing suit.

Many a member of the teeming millions (especially the teens and doctorate students) had this poster of Cecil hanging on their walls, and, not wanting to be too crude about it… on their ceilings! :eek:

Peace.

Heh. 🙂

If there was ever a subject where YMMV, it would be this one.

Because it IS so subjective and because we have people on this board who are so dang competitive, I’d rather not set this up as something for people to aspire to. “Oh yeah, you think that’s controversial, well check THIS out!”

Let’s not speculate, let’s not go there, let’s just do something else.

Closing this thread.
