What makes a thread last?
 
I always am amazed at the threads that take off, and the ones that die. Some threads, which have heavy discourse written all over them fail, and others that I think are going nowhere suddenly spring to life.

I have a weird thing about studying patterns and conversations, etc. I am just curious what is the magic ingredient that either forges a good thread, or poisons it?

Thoughts?

PS. Of course I would like to see this thread flourish, but as always I have no idea if it will.

We'll put this up to experimental testing. I'll flag a random O.T. thread as a control and this one as the subject. Bet it lasts longer than the control now. :)

It's all about the boobs.

Who knows around here. I put up a post for myself, just to try and get video to link, and it got 5 stars.

Also, saying that you are going to be the last one to post seems to keep things going for a while... :)

Liberals and Neocons and Hippies are all doodoo heads. If you eat meat, you are Satan, and if you are Vegan you are a fruitcake, and if you own a gun you are a Nazi and if you are for gun control you are a homo (not that there is anything wrong with that). If you believe in God you are a sheep, and if you are an atheist you are going to hell. If you are into fake boobs you are trashy and if you don't like boobs you don't know what you are missing, or you might be gay (not that there is anything wrong with that). If you support the war in Iraq you are an imperialst Bush-loving blood-for-oil whore, and if you are against the war you are a dirty tree-hugging out of touch with reality hippy who is an enemy of America and democracy.

I can go on for hours...

I like the theory of tits, god, cratch-slapping and incindiary comments, and politics. If we could only find a picture that encompasses all of those thoughts....

So, Bambi's goin' on about how she can make all my fantasies come true.
So I says, "Even this one I have where Jesus Christ
is jackhammering Mickey Mouse in the doo-doo hole
with a lawn dart as Garth Brooks gives birth to something
resembling a cheddar cheese log with almonds on Santa Claus's tummy-tum?"
Well, ten beers, twenty minutes and thirty dollars later
I'm parkin' the beef bus in tuna town if you know what I mean.
Got to nail her back at her trailer.
Heh. That rhymes.
I have to admit it was even more of a turn-on
when I found out she was doin' me to buy baby formula.

Bloodhound gang. Very disturbing music.

legion 11-12-2007 02:19 PM

The whole song:

I was lonelier than Kunta Kinte at a Merle Haggard concert
That night I strolled on into Uncle Limpy's Hump Palace lookin' for love.
It had been a while.
In fact, three hundred and sixty-five had come and went
since that midnight run haulin' hog to Shakey Town on I-10.
I had picked up this hitchhiker that was sweatin' gallons
through a pair of Daisy Duke cut-offs and one of those Fruit Of The Loom tank-tops.
Well, that night I lost myself to ruby red lips,
milky white skin and baby blue eyes.
Name was Russell.

Yes, a lap dance is so much better when the stripper is cryin'
Yes, a lap dance is so much better when the stripper is cryin'
Well I find it's quite a thrill
When she grinds me against her will
Yes a lap dance is so much better when the stripper is cryin'

Well, faster than you can say, "shallow grave",
this pretty little thing come up to me and starts kneadin' my balls
like hard-boiled eggs in a tube sock.
Said her name was Bambi and I said, "Well that's a coincidence darlin',
'cause I was just thinkin' about skinnin' you like a deer."
Well she smiled, had about as much teeth as a Jack-O-Lantern,
and I went on to tell her how I would wear her face like a mask
as I do my little kooky dance.
And then she told me to shush.
I guess she could sense my desperation.
'Course, it's hard to hide a hard-on when you're dressed like Minnie Pearl.

Yes, a lap dance is so much better when the stripper is cryin'

Day or so had passed when I popped the clutch,
gave the tranny a spin and slid on into
The Stinky Pinky Gulp N' Guzzle Big Rig Snooze-A-Stop.
There I was browsin' through the latest issue of "Throb",
when I saw Bambi starin' at me from the back of a milk carton.
Well, my heart just dropped.
So, I decided to do what any good Christian would.
You can not imagine how difficult it is to hold a half gallon of moo juice
and polish the one-eyed gopher when your doin' seventy-five
in an eighteen-wheeler.
I never thought missing children could be so sexy.
Did I say that out loud?

How does one "speak of out next president?"

(One can make a thread last by being a grammar nazi. SmileWavy )

Porsche-O-Phile 11-12-2007 03:13 PM

Hating the president makes the thread last longer.

P.S. the above is Bush's fault. 'cause Cheney's mind control ray made me say it.

What makes a thread last?

1. A subject that has no resolution.

2. People who will not accept that the subject has no resolution.

I bet you think that settles it then, huh?

Well, it doesn't. :)

It might go along the lines of thread length being inversley proportional to the amount of useful information contained therein.



























Or tits.
