> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by smam \* > \*\*Sir, I like this thread of yours, in fact I like it so much I would like to buy it off of you, I could redecorate it and in a coupla months re-open it as ‘smam’s ye olde bookshop and discount aquarium’, how does £19,000 pounds sound to you my good man? \*\* The amount sounds great, but since this thread depends on all its creators for its very existence, we’d need to try to get a vote from all of them. But as soon as we took the vote a new creator would come in and we’d have to take another vote, and pretty soon the 19,000 wouldn’t make a very big split for all the ones eligible for a slice of the action. So I guess the only gentlemanly thing to do is STEAL THIS THREAD! (it is impossible to hijack this thread – it’s been tried!) ---

Maybe we can add color and sound effects to this thread and then make a Matrix version and a Braveheart version and a version where the thread fights itself and it could be the coolest thing _ever_ on the internet. ---
