Dr. Anomaly Posted April 5, 2005 Report Share Posted April 5, 2005 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER With only 64 posts to go, do you think there will be a sudden rush at the end to see who will get to make the post that puts us "over the top"?

Then again, when this thread got started, the A&Q thread probably didn't see it as much of a threat, either. Darn it! I just realized that all morning I've been referring to the "QA Barrier" when it should have been the "AQ Barrier"!! Grrr! Well, I'm not going to take the time and edit them...

zornwil Posted April 5, 2005 Report Share Posted April 5, 2005 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER You'd think Super Squirrel would have more posts in his own thread!

zornwil Posted April 5, 2005 Report Share Posted April 5, 2005 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER Of course, really, this thread IMHO simply needs to have the longest continued existence to qualify as "longest". Now, as to VIEWS, the Catsuit thread is way, way ahead of all others. It would be a real challenge to create and MAINTAIN (moreso) a "most viewed" thread that would topple the Catsuit one!

Egyptoid Posted April 5, 2005 Report Share Posted April 5, 2005 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER The new world was an unspoiled frontier perfect for colonization, a virtual paradise of boundless beauty and limitless resources, untouched by human hands...but not untouched, as the unsuspecting colonists soon discovered. Now marooned on a planet infested with the deadliest Blogger species ever encountered, the colonists learn firsthand the Law of the Internet: adapt or become extinct. And a little helping hand couldn't hurt, inexplicably provided by the selfsame Board-Lurkers who destroyed the colonists' keyboard and made them prisoners in paradise. Are these extraterrestrial hunters actually showing sympathy for the humans' plight, or do they have something even more monstrous in mind?

Yeah, Thrak said basically the same thing. Me? I'm just going along with the terms/conditions set down by the founder of this thread, Hollowed Be His Hame. For the second one...it wouldn't be hard.
