That's a bit more complicated. A thread was started by the ethereal StarCat, who only posted once in the entire scatalogical, free thought, brain spewing thread.
It turned into a stream of consciousness thread that asked critical questions including..... is a soup a sandwich and is chili a burger.
Let the brain cells flow.

Starcat was an occasional poster who would wander off into metaphysical musings. Its hyperbolic condemnation of Peterson's quality control was the spark that ignited the infamous "Starcat" thread. Rumor has it that Starcat was so appalled by the outpouring of pure wonderful silliness that it left the forum.
Aldecaker, that's my memory also. The entire first page was guesses about peterson....it went uphill from there.
I am continuously surprised that we don't have a new member occasionally claim to have been starcat.
Yep, that's right. I tried to get a straight answer and when I didn't get one, I just figured, "screw it" and sorta went off on a screwy right brained tangent. Then the thing just took off from there. It was just amazing, about 800 or so posts of pure silliness involving a lot of members. It was fun while it lasted.
Wow, 800 posts, that's got to be a record. There should be a Hall Of Fame/Infamy for certain threads.
In my short time here, I did have the pleasure of enduring smokingcricket and the infamous "Frank Method" thread. That one got out of hand pretty quickly and descended into sheer madness after a while. Never could quite figure that guy out.
The Starcat thread was still going strong at 800 or so posts when the PTB shut it down and wiped it off of the site. I think they found the whole thing kind of unnerving. I remember that some of the members were appalled by the sheer anarchy of it.
It's a large population so all kinds show up here. Be thankful you missed brightleaf, whose magnum opus was a 17 page rant about the W.H.O..
Smokingcricket was interesting...
