I’ll not argue this one with you, simply because I know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that \*\*Kitten \*\* is mine, all mine. 😛😛😛 Anyway, it’s time for a… _ **Major Announcement of Earth-Shattering Proportions!** _ I’m not posting in this thread anymore. I mean it. I’ll still be posting elsewhere, and I’ll keep an eye on this thread, but you’ll not be hearing from me in here any longer. Until Monday. 😃 Just call it a personal test of will, if you like. I’ll be out of the thread-killing business for the next 60 hours. Have fun, all! Talk all the trash about me you like, keeping in mind, of course, that you’ll be paying for it on Monday. 😛 ---

It suddenly occurred to me that some people may have more posts in this thread than all their other posts in all the other threads put together. ---

My name is Shib, and I’m a Threadaholic. > [@ShibbOleth](#): > > It’s a funny thing. Is it a sort of a game? Has my halitosis returned? Lordy, how the time flies. Or vice versa. See, we didn’t spend all of our time watching TV. Now sometimes we’d go about the new homes that were being built in our neighborhood and forage around the construction sites for anything that was useful. That was as close as we got to recycling back then, and it was lucrative, too. But we did dress in sort of flare legged pants, although bell bottoms were a bit passe by then. I could never tell if everyone else could hear that or it was just me. One day Kevin, who was a bit short, jumped up on his desk and sang a song he’d just invented, “I love you Ms. Jones, you sure have nice bones…” with which she swiftly leapt up and escorted Kevin to the Principal’s office. And I don’t really have much of an idea of what this thread is about. Thanks for sharing. ---

Pardon, your highness, but I think you’ll find that your crown hold little to no sway in these here parts. Unless some of the other threadkillers want to play a game of “French Revolution”. 😃 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-havent-killed-a-thread-all-month/239558.md?page=28) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-havent-killed-a-thread-all-month/239558.md?page=30)
