Anniz: Agreed, and laudable it is. But tell me, what is the goal of this thread? ---

The goal of this thread is, the last who posts here is The Most STUBBERN person here. Hopefully we have some fun on the road to that. Maybe we should ask The Straight Dope for a price?? Say, 1.000.000 US dollar to The Winner. ---

HAH! Trying to get the Reader to dish out dough for stubborness? That’s a laugh. I do believe it’s been pointed out that there is an [island](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=28365) of perhaps the most stubborn Dopers around. They all refuse to let their thread die, and eat those others who chance a walk upon the isle themselves without invitation. That’s stubborn. And also perhaps the most stubborn [Sci-Fried](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=23098) heads as well. ---

Soul, great examples of stubborness in threads, but you forgot about mother of stubborn threads, the infamous [Thread Killers](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=22524&pagenumber=1) Ah those limericks bring back memories. This went on so ridiculously long the mods just decided to close it. ---

**Moe** , that is the mother of all stubborn threads, except that it’s dead, which means there’s still time for the other two to live up to and beyond the reputation of horrible thread killing limericks and senseless _bumps_. In fact, I don’t think there’s been a _bump_ yet in the survivor thread. Now that’s true stubborness. Have no fear Anniz stubborn dopers are like the breeze, they come and go as they please, But only closed threads will stop them. _Ha-tcha-chaa!_ ---

Also, if we can somehow get this thread to be locked, then it would be easier to win. Of course it’s easier for the OP to do that, so Anniz has a slight advantage, but there is no garauntee that it will be locked right away. Giving some people extra chances to post. ---

I’m the most stubborn person here, and I’m gonna be the last to post 😛 So you all might as well give up now. You can obviously see that to post anything beyond this would be futile, and as long as it’s that obvious we can all put this thread to rest. * * * Don’t try to out post one who was born to molost ---
