'Classic threads' forum and/or hall of shame...

MacNN Troubleshooting 50 posts Dec 2, 2003 to May 12, 2004
I've made the suggestion a few times now, but to no avail...

Thought I'd check what everyone else thinks of the idea:

We really should have a 'hall of fame' of *classic* threads that have gone down in history here, or made the place what it is...

Threads like the Ca$h Secret Service thread, or the short-lived Newsfactor News Response thread hat was met wish such vitriolic fever by the masses...

What does everyone think?

Peace,

Marc
I was gonna say...

The Secret Service thread, the Newsfactor Response thread, and Cipher and Reader have no life thread.
In this case we'll need:

1.) The first "snappy�" thread....

2.) The first "+1" thread....
As mentioned in a recent thread: Minivanh8r's interpretation of people.

Good times.
Best thread ever:

Damn bill gates for his rugged good looks

This is the right answer.

(and all subsequent threads.)

That's the thread that really got me hooked here. Every time I enter the lounge I hope something funny like that is going to happen again. No, that was more than funny. I still wonder if I fully understand cabbage and Jarvis, but it's hilarious nonetheless.
We can't we have a discussion about classic threads (or hall of shame) and not mention the soap opera known as PowerBookDude.

I wonder whatever became of that poor kid...
Shhh. Don't summon him. You never know what wickedness may lurk these forums.

Actually, he wasn't a bad kid, he was just a mess. Maybe he's outgrown all that by now. We can only hope, for the kids own good.
Remember PowerbookDude's first porn? When he stumbled on those pictures of some european college students having sex that forgot to turn their webcam off?

Edit: found it here!
How about the time when the asshat who reported me to the SS admitted he did it, and then me posting his phone number? I believe that was taken down...but... I have it saved on my hard drive. Man, that was great. I still have his full name and address too.

Who was it?
Anything that Fat Barry has ever had a part in.

Some random dumbass I don't even remember. He apparnetly didn't like me much because I argued with him years back. I'll post his username tonight, but right now I don't remember.

MikeM32 and the hooker he brought home and she lay in bed while he posted on MacNN?

Here's to Fat Barry !

any thread where someone throws their toys out the pram, slams some doors and publicly "leaves the board" always makes me laugh.

I think it was discussed more over at the 'BBQ than here in latter days after his banning and all, but yes, it's true, Mike did have a propensity to getting his wallet stolen by Hookers when he fell asleep...

Wonder what happened to him in the end?

Peace,

Marc

(P.S. Someone ask Ca$h about the 'Mopar forum' spate of bannings... I checked it our once for a laugh, and years after he was gone his flamewars and mere presence was legendary! Good to have some people here who like to speak their minds!

He even gets a mention in the Terms and Conditions here:

ca$h are you still banned from neons.org?

That's pretty funny. I wasn't aware of that! Hehehe. I bet you most of those stupid bastards don't even remember what it was about.... basically, this guy said his 70 DRAG cuda could out handle a neon....

OBVIOUSLY he was wrong. But like Kilbey, he was unable to admit this, and like me, I don't give up. Eventually they banned me, but seeing as how most of them were morons, I didn't care much.

It depends. If I showed up I think Matt Wiggins might eat me.

Give it up kid.

I'll admit when I am wrong. When I argue with you I will it is safe to say I will never have to do that.

You have a tendency to argue opinions. Which are usually just that, an opinion. Sometimes people have a different opinion than you. If everyone had the same opinion as you, you'd probably change your opinion to just to argue with them.

Get a little experience and wisdom in you. And always remember, the universe does not revolve around you.
Kilbey the problem is,

You are a GM whore, and Cash doesn't like GM.

Nothing personal against you.
Is there some easy to fing collection of classic ca$h. I would really enjoy reading it. I mean think of all the ca$h we could make by selling some journal with all the crap that has been said in it.

Dunno. It'd be kinda funny tho.

- Ca$h
cash, i've been wondering for a while, what on earth is your current sig and username all about? What/who is busket? Apparently some sort of small bush according to the dictionary. And who's the dude in the picture. I don't understand...my face is on a japanese box...etc???
Watch the movie "Suicide Kings". There's a 'busket' scene, which is.... probably one of the funniest things in a movie I've ever seen in my life, since it EXACTLY personifies how I feel... EXACTLY. Dennis Leary in that movie... think of him as me (in most cases) .

I find it amusing that you should ask this.

I nominate the original cheese thread.

He quit posting here largely (though not entirely, I suppose) because he was sick of you.

Isn't it though? To think that someone would want to put me in JAIL because we had differing opinions on something. What a sick ****!

- Ca$h
that and the new job where he can't surf all day.

it's fun to read the old threads, see all of cash's old banned names, and people who've dropped off the playing field.

nostagia...
