    Step 1. Be more assertive in your posts. (Though the thought of Bridgette being more assertive is a bit scary )

    Haha! This internet shit is trivial, bickering about DJs and such an idle sport.

    I have seen the Wrath of Bridgette in real life. It was beautiful to behold--or rather hear (emanating from the cell phone--that sweet voice can be transformed, lol!). I laughed but it was in sheer amazement, make no mistake about it--I was impressed and charmed at the same time. Since she was mad at me and I was wrong, I apologized as soon as the cab brought me back to her.

    One of my favorite B stories, though the PizzaHo episode was a bit better.

    You know, I think I tend to avoid confrontational posts. Unless it is a fundamental type thing, a matter of principle. I would be more likely, like X said to look for some kind of "lets all be friends" response. And lets face it, after the question has been answered 20 or 30 different ways, and then there's been the back and forth of defending positions for a while...if someone comes along and throws some nice in the mix, that could spoil it. Usually I'd rather run away than hurt someones feelings.

    The really long threads are the sort of "stream of consciousness" ones where it's just: well what do you have to say today kind of thing, or the ones where every single person can contribute with their unique preference.

    Juggernutz, your screen name is a classic

    Is stating your opinion "confrontational" or controversial? Is contributing to the thread only good when you're the first one to say something? Could there be a motivation for waiting for a thread to mature before joining in?

    I know I've said controversial things. I know, too, that I've held back just to prevent a flare up. But if I have something to contribute, good or bad, I'm going to say it more often than not. And I learn things from joining in, but not from dominating, the discussion. Even when people disagree with me.

    LOL, this thread reminds me of the Seinfield car dealership episode where Kramer takes a car for a test drive and they see how much farther they can go with the gas needle below E.

    Maybe you should consider birthing a thread every time you kill one to maintain balance in the world.

    It stresses me out to see that I'm the last one who has posted and pray that it will get pushed off the 1st page very quickly!

    Ok cherry, now that there^^^ is bad thread killer technique. I mean, you've got a letter or a word or something missing there man. That's just gonna generate a bunch of WTF?s and stuff instead of quietly putting the thread to sleep. Makes me kind of doubt your claim of killing so many threads.

    But having said that, you've got the johnny-come-lately part down cold

    So it's like a contest now... whoever posts last in this thread gets a crown or a smokey-the-bear-like Diploma, "World's Best Thread Killer".

    In that case, at the moment I press the submit button, I am the new top contender for the prize.

    Grace, I've had my attempts at humour backfire so often, that I've become more careful with it now. It's tricky business. I've noticed that when you don't put a smiley face in you will get a bunch of people misunderstanding.

    I guess it's because our own face isn't there to provide a clue/cue?

    I think we should all take pride in our threAd killing capabilties. I mean killing a thread is a skill, right? Like pole vaulting or something, taking years of practice and honing.

    Or maybe some of us may be a little paranoid...

    Oh and I found a lunarobverse icon WHy no lapaholic icon

    I'm flattered that there are more than one hat-related smilies!

    Did someone already point out that this thread, this thread about killing threads, is never going to be, itself, killed? And if someone did, does it matter that I'm pointing it out again? hockeybobby will forever be known for two things: worshiping Jenny, and creating the only thread to rival the Random Thread.

    I am so glad it is not just me that feels like this. (sorry just entered thread have been away for a few days, see no one even noticed lol) Is it also the same as when you contribute to threads and your posts get completely overlooked? I get that feeling quite alot too, so much so I did wonder if everyone had put me on ignore. Then I realized I wouldn't ever get a response so now I don't know oh crap! Lol.

    I've never thought of myself as a thread killer, I didn't even know that term existed but I thought I'd post here to test out the theory. If my post kills this thread then maybe I'm a thread killer too...
