I set a limit of 100 pages, 1500 posts per thread because of a bug that ate a thread's posts after a certain point. That was ages ago, so I thought I'd start a thread and let it continue on forever, just to see if it remained or if the bug was still eating posts after a certain point.
If this thread goes on and on for a couple hundred pages, I may then decide to let all threads continue on and on. Well, maybe until about 300 or more posts? Or even 500. I don't think they should continue forever and ever without locking them up at some point.
NOTE: You might want to save the posts you like, just in case they get eaten up and lost forever.

So this is an anything goes (within reason, of course) experimental thread just to see what happens? I love experiments, especially the messy kind. Can we blow up something?

Phalon in a thread where nearly anything goes and she's got a free hand? One is reminded of the old films from grade school during the Cuban crisis where the operating words were "Duck and cover." It was, of course, a useless thing to do, but it made the situation feel less scary.

Ducks are cute and fuzzy; covers are warm and cozy. So of course, they'd make any situation less scary. But useless?
Tell that to the duck that gave his feathers for that down comforter.
Go ahead. Do it.
I wanna see what happens.

Not all ducks are cute. I went fishing once and a domesticated duck was making a home at the pond. Acutally, the thing was only semi domesticated. It kept coming over for bread crust treats but decided it wanted the pond for its own so it started hissing at me and bit - or beaked - my jeans and tried beating up my leg with its wings. It sort of reminded me of an over excited dog except that was clearly not what was happening. He was keeping me from the fish and making too much noise so I sort of flung him several feet away. Masochist that he was he came back for more but this time he ended up near the water so he went swimming which chased off the fish. If I'd had a gun with me I would have had duck for dinner, stupid little blighter!

My grandmother had a rooster that made my life miserable whenever I went outside alone. She wrung his neck and we had him for Sunday dinner. Motto: Leave the head hen's chicks alone!

Well, there lies the reason this particular duck displayed a less-than cute attitude. Lion and tiger and bear cubs are cute; even rhinos are cute in an uncuddly sort of way. But you wouldn't intrude on "their" homes, now would you.

Not the rhino, but the homes of the lion and tiger cubs...sure! And a Liger would be great!

Pizza - thick crust - lots of cheese - and of course - them red things y'all are trying to figure out what they is.

Ah, yes, the tomatio on the pizza. (cue in mood music with a nice, easy adagio tempo, please.) But then the scenario would have to involve a tomatio to cheese ratio in favor (and flavor) of cheese, (how about Asagio).
I dunnio whatio I'm talking about. Definitely anything but pistachio cuz that's just nuts.

I'm learning to like pizza. This may take a while so extra may be necessary.

Um....just so you know....a tomatillo (check out the corrected spelling because I apparently don't know as much spanish as I thought) is not a tomato.

It's a gooseberry? There's a Christmas show where a kid keeps saying he wants gooseberry jam. People put all kinds of stuff on pizzas - somebody might have tried gooseberry. They put pineapple on Hawaiian pizza.

Speculation says it's a combination of legal pharmaceuticals and alcohol. They found a little water in her lungs but not enough to indicate drowning (again, rumor). For all I know she might have had an aneurysm. Sooner or later it'll come out, but knowing doesn't change the outcome or the fact that her daughter has to do without her.

We need something to talk about. That, or change the attributes of the kitchen sink thread.

Post by Phalon on Feb 23, 2012 5:45:32 GMT -6
Nah. I've never needed anything to talk about....just ask the girls, or the cats, for that matter.
I think both threads can peacefully coexist....mainly because we never gave them weapons; only banjos duel.
The way I figure it, is the Kitchen Sink is a catch-all, (hey, it's like having a sink full of dirty dishes!)
Whereas the purpose of this thread ,(correct me, Joxie, if I'm wrong), is to see how far it'll go without eating itself - post quantity vs content. Kind of like....

I wouldn't put anything in this thread I didn't want to lose. Should a bug eat it up after a certain number of threads/posts.
