Well, my discussion of “Matrix Theory” resulted in two threadkills (which should have clued me in right there) and three more threads that were eventually locked. So I guess I’m right, most people here are still part of The System, and aren’t Ready To Be Unplugged Yet. And something tells me I just killed this thread, as well. I’m a serial thread-killer!!! 😃 ---

Oh, I’ve probably thread-killed about as often as I’ve stopped reading a thread because of a post by one of the usual suspects (on my list). ---

Thread killing happens. Life goes on. Don’t worry about it. I killed many threads. Didn’t mean to. Just did. I don’t know why. It might be a conspiracy. Or something. Or. It might be something altogether different. I don’t know. Oh. Well. ---

_Martyr version_ “It’s all a conspiracy against _me!_ You people see my name on a thread and you don’t want to have anything to do with it!” _Monomania Version_ “It’s just that my posts are so perfect that no one dares to follow them.” ---

_Another Version_ I don’t feel like contributing anything useful, so I’ll post something that will make everyone else not feel like posting. ---

No, but I’ve opened several threads which no one responded to. Sometimes I think I’m the invisible poster. Bob ---

(Yes, I know you were joking.) I only hit “Submit” twice this time because the first time gave me a “connection refused” error. And to **chaoticdonkey** …take the blue pill.
