This seems to be missing among all these threads....

Glad to be of service.

This is perfectly suited above the line topic.

Thank you for starting it.
















Oh did you wan't me to add something relevant?

No, I´d prefer something totally irrelevant. But thanks for asking.

How about "I Start Copycat Threads and Nobody Thinks I'm Stupid"?

oh, sorry.....but I do think we've had a few too many copycat threads along this line.

Should have thought on that one, Joe...

Damn....another good idea spoiled...

I know the feeling well [grin]

Yeah, I count TEN threads along this line, and that's getting well past the point of aggravation. Three would have been about right (well, personally, I would have preferred just one), and all the other messages could have been posted in one of the three. We don't need a new thread for every little thing - and there's a point where parodies cease to be cute...

I apologize if I created a thread so far over the limit. Should`ve read the FAQ first....

On a more serious level: The original (banjo) thread was used to link videos of Mudcatters & celebrities playing banjo. All our silly copycat jokes would have spoiled that one IMHO.

Best

Well, it's not a matter of rules, but you get the idea. The original thread was a good idea, but the flood of copycats made the original disappear in a cloud of sameness.

Where's "I started a BS thread and everyone wishes I didn't"?

It has got renamed to " I started a BS thread and everyone wishes I hadn`t, yet everybody contributed to it".
