Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: Susan from California Date: 26 Jul 00 - 02:10 PM The epitath might read--- "Here lies the thread, It is finally dead Who delivered the final blow? At this rate, we'll n'er know" That might even make the gravestone worthy of a rubbing, probably at laest a photo! |

Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: Morticia Date: 26 Jul 00 - 01:38 PM This damn thread came to me It softly snuck in And quietly climbed to the top once again And it laid a grin on me And this it did say Oh it will not be long, love 'Till they're posting again |

Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: Mbo Date: 26 Jul 00 - 01:33 PM Right, Said Fred. I'm too sexy for this thread. |

Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: MMario Date: 26 Jul 00 - 01:32 PM Who's freddie? And why should he think? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: McGrath of Harlow Date: 26 Jul 00 - 01:27 PM And when we think it's dead...back it will come, days, weeks, months, years later. Someone will put a trace on it - and when we think we're safe, it rises from the grave and reqches towards us! Think Freddie... |

Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: Mbo Date: 26 Jul 00 - 10:09 AM This thread is killing me softly. |

Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: A Wandering Minstrel Date: 26 Jul 00 - 09:42 AM Dang! the b^8*&&^$££%$ thing is still here! |

Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: Allan C. Date: 26 Jul 00 - 08:14 AM Sure, 'Spaw. Or we could each post as GUEST and kill it anonymously. After all, wasn't it Julius Caesar who was stabbed something like 32 times but nobody really ever took credit for it? Maybe it could work here. But then, don'tchaknow that after we had done all that anonymous posting, someone would come along and spoil the scheme by adding their name at the end. |

Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: catspaw49 Date: 25 Jul 00 - 10:43 PM That's OK Ebbie....Made your comment all the funnier. Alright, I been thinkin' and technically a thread may be linked to another, a part 2, but part 2 is NOT the original thread and exists with a separate thread ID number. Most threads become hard to load at about 100 and real tough at 150....ridiculously time consuming after that. This sucker isn't dying of course, so let's just run it up to 150 or 200 so that it is too time consuming to screw with. Post OK if you like. Or good idea. Anything. Post your underwear size...we'll talk about it. When it gets up there, we let it go and take mutual responsibility/credit for killing the sucker. Whaddaya' think? Spaw |

Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: MMario Date: 25 Jul 00 - 10:09 PM probably grey whales....still 95 inches long and 105 inches deep, much fatter then I usually think of whales... more angel-fish shaped.... |

Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: Ebbie Date: 25 Jul 00 - 10:02 PM Here in Alaska I could swear I've seen bigger whales than that... :~) Ebbie |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: McGrath of Harlow Date: 25 Jul 00 - 09:23 PM A sperm whale 95 inches long? We could get one for the Town Swimming Pool... |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: Thomas the Rhymer Date: 25 Jul 00 - 06:25 PM The average sperm whale is 95 inches long, and the female is 105 inches deep. So these are averages,..."Moby". |

Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: catspaw49 Date: 25 Jul 00 - 05:58 PM So how big was it Meebo? Spaw |

Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: wysiwyg Date: 25 Jul 00 - 05:03 PM I guess not everyone is out to get Jesus though. Poor guy, crucifixion by ignorement. Now that sounds awful! Gee! Imagine they threw a crucifixion and no one showed up! And I was feeling bad for being ignored! Wow! That would be a REAL bummer! Hey! Can I rant about this for a minute PLEEZE????? ~S~ |

Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: Liz the Squeak Date: 25 Jul 00 - 04:43 PM Hey, just because you aren't paranoid, doesn't mean they aren't out to get you.... LTS |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: Allan C. Date: 25 Jul 00 - 04:40 PM I was going to say something clever about the Resurrection; but it was too easy. I'll have to say that this has been interesting - even this last bit. It is nice to know there are others who have experienced the same level of paranoia or simple irritation at watching a thread die with your last utterance. Thanks for the reassurance. |

Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: wysiwyg Date: 25 Jul 00 - 04:33 PM So it wasn't my mentioning Jesus that killed so many threads? Guess we'll find out now. ~S~ |

Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: Morticia Date: 25 Jul 00 - 03:22 PM ......creeping up with a pillow behind her back " This time the little ba****rd stays down" ( maniacal laughter off). Just living up to the nickname, guys. |

Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: Ebbie Date: 25 Jul 00 - 03:19 PM Alaska debated a few years ago whether carrying a hidden gun into a school should be legal- the consensus was, What's the harm? Ebbie |

Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: Allan C. Date: 25 Jul 00 - 03:14 PM Yours was really good too, 'Spaw. |

Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: catspaw49 Date: 25 Jul 00 - 02:43 PM Nice Post Thomas Spaw (trying again) |

Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: Thomas the Rhymer Date: 25 Jul 00 - 02:33 PM My life is all at your command If you should raise your icy hand Oh, death; Oh, death; won't you spare me over for another post |

Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: Liz the Squeak Date: 25 Jul 00 - 02:14 PM You realise that this thing is getting harder to kill than the woman in 'Mercy', the Stephen King thing, where the author takes at least 5 goes to keep her down. The French and Saunders parody of it was even better than the original! Somebody, take it out, put a stake through it and bury it at a crossroads, at midnight in an unmarked grave!!! LTS Then it can come back as the UnThread......

Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: McGrath of Harlow Date: 25 Jul 00 - 01:36 PM How can you get a proper thread creep/drift/lurch intop an undead thread like this?
|
|
Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: MMario Date: 25 Jul 00 - 12:17 PM I don't think thread creep kills thread as thread creep tends to keep a thread alive. I think it's the excercise it gets while creeping... |

Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: catspaw49 Date: 25 Jul 00 - 12:02 PM True Fionn......Let's see if I can kill it for my buddy Shambles anyway........ Good post Fionn. Spaw |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: reggie miles Date: 25 Jul 00 - 11:48 AM Not to change the subject here but thread creep seems to kill the initial intent of many threads. Something within the message of some threads triggers a chord in several readers at once and off they go posting about why the mayo went bad in that sandwich... It's happened to me as well. I guess some obscure questions, though they may seem important to some of us, are not very interesting to others. We can't seriously expect to find all the answers here, can we? Maybe some things are best left unanswered. |

Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: Peter K (Fionn) Date: 25 Jul 00 - 07:36 AM And Spaw's "Let this one die folks" is another sure fire way to keep 'em going.... |

Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: McGrath of Harlow Date: 25 Jul 00 - 07:20 AM Of course if somebody were to mention gun control or Ireland... |

Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: Gervase Date: 25 Jul 00 - 06:56 AM Funny, I could have sworn I saw it twitch just then... |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: Morticia Date: 24 Jul 00 - 06:33 PM If we let this thread die, it may be reincarnated as a thread on insects or cats....in fact, for all we know, this was one of the Great Threads from history, and is about to be preserved in teal coloured amber for posterior. Let it go, it's quality of life is sinking fast and they're thinking of turning off the machines. |

Subject: RE: BS: Killing the thread From: The Shambles Date: 24 Jul 00 - 03:12 PM Kevin said.
"I've found there's two ways you kill a thread. One is where you write some would-be clever stuff that you sort of feel is the last word. And it is. But you've no way of knowing whether it really was the last word, and the others are saying "can't top that one" - or whether they have just pissed off down the pub, so to speak, leaving you talking to yourself in an empty room. Sad. Sorry I have just got back from the pub. |
