I am going to attempt to create The Worst Thread Ever. I think if there is not one single additional post, I will have succeeded. A post so bad that no one would respond to would be mighty bad. Please, do not respond. I will give a dollar to the first 50 people who do not respond. That’s how bad I want this thread to succeed. DO NOT PM ME. CRINZ ---

Sorry, I’ve done worse. ---

If the OP doesn’t deliver, does that make it better or worse? ---

I’m in it now. That should stink up the thread a little. ---

No! No, no, no no, no!!! The fact that you’ve responded makes this thread somewhat successful. The thread has failed. It is not the worst thread ever. And, let me say that I deeply resent Douglas Hofstadter. His ideas concerning the ‘self-referential’ don’t work. I tried "The Best Thread Ever’, and now I’ve tried ‘The Worst Thread Ever’. Each failed. This thread may be the Biggest Failure Ever. Love, CRINZ ---

Let’s see, what can I do that really annoys people on the SDMB, to make this thread worse? I know: how about a non-sequitur response? My cat’s breath smells like cat food. Or how about a question that’s gonna go on for 4 pages? Why is it that girls always say they want a nice, sensitive, caring man, but then they always fall for the sexy bad boys? No. No. I’ve got it. I’ll trash President Bush. Stupid chimp who has big ears. He looks like a monkey. ---

This might be a bad time to ask for pickles. ---

Well, I am a mega attention whore, so I can completely hijack this thread and make it worse. Who thinks I am an alcoholic? See, now the thread really sucks already. Bush’s policies are idiotic. Liberal sometimes creates problems. There is no Cecil. Wow, this thread is fun \>\_\> ---

I still want pickles. (It was the only way to keep my brothers away from me whilst I was a youngun.) I’ll be an L.A. resident only they [accept](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=410434) me. ---

Unfortunately, too mundane and too pointless; it’s more of a post-padding thread than anything else.
