    End of thread When someone makes a great post, like sxy's. someone will simply post "End of thread," indicating that the thread can't get any better. The post has had a zero percent success rate so far.

    Allow me to help out here.

    Wedding Crashers: The movie itself has no real significance here, but the Wedding Crashers thread, that's a different story. It started innocently enough. I believe someone started the thread simply to say they enjoyed the film and called it one of the best comedies they had seen in a long time. Several others agreed. Poloponies, who now goes by another name around here, disagreed ... while admitting he had never seen the movie. Of course, several posters questioned that opinion. What followed, to the dismay of everyone, was one of the greatest meltdowns in the recent history of this board. Polo went absolutely apeshit crazy for like two weeks. The Wedding Crashers debate spilled over onto nearly every thread for a long time, as polo stalked a handful of posters from thread to thread. Eventually, to everyone's relief, polo packed up and left for a long stretch.

    Map of Hawaii
    I didn't know this one at first, then someone PMed me to set me straight.
    A picture of it would be NSFW.
    ;)

    He can say whatever he likes, I won't respond here. I will have no part in screwing up this thread. The info's there and none of it is debateable.

    No it wouldn't:

    But since we're supposed to solve mysteries, not further them, "map of Hawaii" refers to the splatter pattern of male fulfillment. Hey, sometimes knowledge ain't pretty.

    Is anyone else a little dissapointed that we're ruining all the inside jokes for future generations?

    Chances are this thread won't get stickied, so after a few days, the mysteries will be safe.

    Stickying a thread A moderator making sure a thread won't move from the top of the first page. The most of those we've had at one time is six.

    Splatter pattern of male fulfillment.

    At an average of 9 words per post, you've posted roughly 110,000 words. It's doubtful any of them will make me laugh as hard as those five just did.

    Third secret of Fatima: A piece of obscure, highly-specialized information that no one has a prayer in hell of finding out this side of a Lexus/Nexus search. Usually applied in the negative sense by a newbie poster impatient that his thread hasn't drawn immediate response, as in "Come on people, I'm not asking for the third secret of Fatima here!"
