I remember two long pointless threads other than “thread” … one was “a” and definitely not lesser-known than thread. The other makes for an interesting response.

What is “?”?

The topic I was thinking of was that one that was entitled “Thread” where people were like “Random post talking about one’s day” and “obligitory mention of co-workers. Misspelled word.”

By “current 5th largest topic” do you mean the fifth-largest (most replies) topic on the front page, or 5th-largest ever?
