With all that stuff in the water , cannot help but make a subtle joke along the lines of 'dis-member-ship' and quietly cross fingers , praying to the god of jokes , that his sense of humor caused someone , somewhere to crack a smile ..... :lol:

Reminds forum about own personal 1337ness.

In-joke.

Attempt at wit (plagued by grammar and punctuation errors).

New member staggers into thread to post cryptic and horribly misspleled link to an obscure web-article about new findings relating to yetis/mummies/alien nazis and is summarily pummeled by forum veterans for not staying on argument-topic.

Post suggesting people be nicer to newer members.

Little argument about rules here.

[jahcs]

Post simply for the feeling of actually having done something productive today. Oh, wait... :unsure:

Modest roasting for posting broken link.

Wry comment about post quality versus speed.

"Edit is your friend" reminder. Caffeine excuse, yet again, offered.

Smiley.

Description of original poster's amazement at how long this thread is lasting.

Offerance of "Kudos" to everyone participating in this thread.

Apparent non-sequitor image placement (made in MS Paint for variety):

[right][snapback]65522[/snapback][/right]

Offers up a conspiracy theory that the artwork showed is really an early concept
scetch for the Illuminati symbol.

Proceeds to accuse DeeBye of being a manipulative "player" who tries to control
the world. Throws in the words "ergo" and "cogito" to counter the mind-controlling
effect of previous posters use of non-sequitor expression.

*awaits the hellfury*

[Zyr]

Gentle correction of spelling of "sequitur"

Expression of amused pleasure that replies in thread adhere so closely to original poster's apparent intent

[--Pete]

Long winded 'summary' of discussion so far.

Plea to use logic to pick a side.

Almost totally off topic reminiscence with vague point.

(Convoluted) argument (with lots of (irritating (spurious)) parentheses).

Cynical smilie ;)

Praises poster and seconds the aformentioned plea.

Writes a long-winded, senseless reply as to why the side I picked is the right and ONLY one

Tangential follow up of vague point, complete with bad joke.

Two edits, due to forgetting that "Preview Is Your Friend."

[Minionman]

Your logic is wrong. Uses my logic.

Adds wierd analogy to make point.

Self-important thread necromancy salutation. Random comment on thread hijacking as an art form worthy of Monet.

Smilie

Edit, wondering where the "y" in worthy went the first time.

[Butch27]

Reply to thread necromancy as though the thread were still very much alive.

*kicks self for having similar idea re: self-important thread necromancy, then waiting for thread to die, then forgetting to resurrect thread.*

Because oblivious, will never edit.

Complaint about thread necromancy.

Long winded diatribe about forum abusers who resurrect threads.

Makes dubious connection between thread necromancer and the downfall of western civilization. Follows up with unconnected logic lead that necromancer is responsible for falling school grades, the war in Iraq and Hello Kitty Tentacle pron.

Frothing at the mouth, casts aspersions on thread necromancer's personal character.

Edits post for spelling and adds apology for poor english skills. Claims lack of english as a first language.*

*speaks American as first language. :w00t:

[right][snapback]73062[/snapback][/right]

Goes off topic to talk about why American is as godo a form of english as english.

Confusing 3 or 4 sentence paragraph explaining point.

Edit (not vague post related): "godo" is a typo of "good". It sounds cool so I'm leaving it in.
Edit 2 (also not related): fixed a second typo in the first edit.

[TaiDaishar]

Adding a gasping smilie in order to convey one's amazement from a sentence made by the previous poster, leaving no clue whatsoever to what was the statement in question.

Ninja fix of mistakes though refusing to even admit he looked at said post after posting

Quietly says "WTF" and goes away
