I can't believe I missed the instant classic over the summer! But now I can appreciate all of its classicness (classicity?), if not its instantness (instantity? insanity?--wait, I know how to appreciate insanity already...instantitude?).

Ah...at least I can claim to be classic in someway. Life is really, really good.

I'm also classically clumsy. I just dropped my keyboard on its head.

It's these classic early hours I keep.

Hey, Frisco!

Remember when you said this:

quote:
We want our children to be posting to this thread! But not our children's children, because I don't think kids should be having sex.

and so I said this:
quote:
That IS a classic.

and so you said this:
quote:
Oh...buttering me up, are we...coming back to grovel and beg for forgiveness after ripping me so soundly for a good joke that you happened to be the butt of....

and then I rejoinded with this:
quote:
I just mean you ripped it off of SNL.

and then we determined this:
quote:
(Frisco - when will the hurting stop between us? Will our children have to meet secretly in the night so as not to incur the wrath of their vendetta-obsessed parents?)

Do you remember? Do you? That was cooooool.

As much as I'd like to grace this thread with my humor and wit, I think your responses and attempts at the same would taint the reputation of one of the greatest threads of all time.

It's good to see you've sobered up enough to post, though.

I was watching ESPN Classic the other day, and they were showing the recent Arkansas vs Kentucky game that went into 7 overtimes under the heading of "Instant Classic."

So there you go.

(I left out a word. One of the classic blunders.)

It was a dark and stormy night. No longer a newbie, but by far the highest member number to post to on "Instant Classic", pooka wonders what she can possibly have to add to this edifice of monkey feces.

And on page 3 she saw it, the elusive Baldar. His recent posts were still viewable. Repelled, but unable to turn away, she began to click and read; click and read.

But still she cannot wipe from her mind the funniest dobie she ever saw, which admittedly isn't saying much:
...
Drat, it has apparently been deleted.

Ooh.. that was some excellent Flash work on the Vlasic website. Did you see the animation when you drag your mouse over the pickle? And check out that typeface! It's almost as great as the "Mr. Television" series I bought. Classic.

If you would be so kind as to indulge me, I'd like to introduce you to the Thread Taste Testing Challenge. Simply read this page blindfolded, and then read this page blindfolded.

Then try to tell which is Thread Classic, and which is New Thread. We think you'll be pleasantly surprised.
