Who? Closed Threads

[warren]

Which currant member holds the record for causing the most thread closings and/or removals? I'm not asking about threads in which the mod simply tired of the thread or, the need to monitor the thread. We can count threads which were obviously going to be closed based on the original post or a response which leads to a lock. A rare double will be duly/dully? recognized in a manner to be determined, at a later time, at a gathering of the membership, at a place to be named, which must be acceptable to 91.4 percent of the membership, past and present.
The over/under for the closing of this thread is set at 41 should you wish to wager.

I have been booted from MANY forums, I have not had a single thread deleted here.
I am afraid I am losing my edge.

I've only joined two boards, this one and a woodworking one. Woodworkers are more focused that pipe smokers is my observation. But, one can only discuss when to use fine thread screws as opposed to coarse so many times and the threads rarely deviated into nonsense.

 

[jefff]

I prefer joinery to screws.
Also, there are some seriously dainty people out there in the world. Call somebody a douche and poof, you're gone.

 

[warren]

If you call someone a douche and they don't know they are a douche, they can get their panties in a bunch.

I always thought it was a public service. People need to know these things.
I also approve of poor self esteem. It's natures way of telling you to stop that shit.

42

I prefer joinery to screws.

There are times when I prefer the emotional intimacy of the former, but the latter can be great exercise.

Call somebody a douche and poof, you're gone.

Somebody, you're a douche! And you know who you are!

 

[woodsroad]

Someone calls you a poofter and you're really a douche. There's the rub.
42. But what was the question?
FWIW, I've had a few of my threads closed, but I've never prompted the closing of a thread. I vow to try harder this year.

(ahem) Er..a..Jefff,by the way, er..ehhh, your a :rofl: ....

 

[jefff]

Ha! I already knew that!
I may have a bit too much self esteem though.

 

[mayfair70]

I can only think of two or three threads I can be blamed for getting removed. I'm such a lightweight. :crazy:

 

[ashdigger]

Hmm, I'm not sure telling someone they're a douche works. I've never fallen for it.

 

[sablebrush52]

OK, so calling somebody a douche doesn't work.
What if I told somebody that "your father was a hamster and your mother smelled of elderberries!"?
Or...
I could start quoting Plato or Ayn Rand, or Mr. Natural for that matter, in Pig Latin, which would constitute a considerable improvement in the level of intellectual discourse.
We have to raise the bar. Just dissing Dunhill doesn't really make it anymore. Nary a panty will bunch.

 

[jefff]

You had me at Ayn Rand
Skank.

[ashdigger]

I think Savinellis are the most overrated hunks of kindling ever glued together. And I think that that every overrated stated is obviously underrated.

 

[aldecaker]

Mr. Natural says "truck you".

 

[jefff]

I am old enough to remember Mr. Natural.
Geez I really enjoyed that.

Hmmm... I think I'm supposed to say something witty here...
Yeah I got nothing
