C'mon, folks. At this rate we're never going to make this the stupidest thread ever. Are you going to make me do all the work, or what? Sad

Holy smokes. You've definitely got a contender there.
-personal attacks and juvenile name-calling
-mind-blowing repetition and wheel-spinning
-(worst of all in my mind) repeated denigration of my favorite furry animal, the beaver.

The Korean women versus Western women threads have my vote.


And mine, though along with those I would also suggest the 'best pulling moves' threads, where a load of internet geeks chime in with ideas they've got on how to get laid, from how to get laid websites. There is one in full swing right now, which seems to have been rescued by some lady humour.

What a coincidence -- I'm big on furry beavers, too. Well, come to think of it, the bald ones really catch my eye as well. What a great national symbol we have! It just makes me want to stand at attention every time I see one.

Here's to our shared fascination. Cheers! Very Happy

Kwangju Chicken's Unbelievable thread went downhill fast. Every now and then he'll post something to keep the thread from getting buried. All the thread is about now is how he sees various meanings in numbers. Offers a rare look into one man's psychosis. No offense, chicken man!

Don't worry. The man couldn't insult his way out of a paper bag and a good beaver can take it all.

A thousand paper bags breathe brittle sighs of relief. And you're right. I've found that beavers are terrific, and open to most things (except perhaps Rapier.)

"I love teaching" has my nomination.
The OP began the thread with a harmless, inoffensive message which should have posed a threat to no one.
Then someone, for no good reason, attacked the OP for a real or imagined grammatical error.
Then the participants began to attack each other's errors in spelling and punctuation.
In no time at all, everyone forgot about the original topic of the thread.

the one where the foreign women get lloked at for what they wear but not the korean women if they wear just as sexy stuff. Only because Homer and his Korwiggers misunderstood the OP.
