My searchfu is weak, but I seem to recall several threads by a guy called **Masta Wanka** or something close to that. One had him clad in his drawers chasing Jehovah Witnesses down the street with a sword. Another had one of his buddies getting a snapping turtle stuck to his ass. Think there was one about comic results of fart lighting… ---

The Horror of Blimps was funny enough but not as high on my list as My Rage Burns With The Heat of [some number] Suns, which I can’t find. That’s the one where the guy is furious because, among other things, he didn’t realize till he was 24 for that Jerry Lewis and Jerry Lee Lewis were two different guys. “Goodness gracious great balls of hey, laaaaaady!” indeed. ---

[This](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=466845) is the funniest thread I ever started. It pales in comparison to blimps and such but it still ended up being a hilarious thread. WARNING: There is discussion of girly things, mostly tampon related. ---

I just read most of the threads linked in the previous posts. Outside of the fact that they were funny shit, one thing stood out to me: quite a few of the OP’s linked were started by people who have since been banned. Don’t know what that comments on, I’m just sayin is all. ---
