I was browsing the Norfolk Dopers pics when I ran across this one, specifically the one of Satan and Falcon at breakfast. I wondered for a second why his face looked familiar, when it hit me… He’s got the same glasses I do.

… would be a thread consisting of a single post with a link to _that thread_. I guess to do it you’d have to be able to guess what the threadid of the post would be as soon as it was posted. Oh, and then the moderator would have to close the thread so no one could reply to it.
