Old thread graveyard

Where do threads go when they die? Sometimes I see them come back. Do they have karma? Some unfinished business perhaps?

And if they just go to sleep for awhile, do they dream?

    They never sleep. The just lay still, and wait. Hoping that one day, they will be found again, and someone will necro-post.

    people who don't know the history of old threads are doomed to repeat them.


    that's why there's a "what does 'bump' mean?" thread once a week.

    The forum is a wasteland of forgotten conversation, filled with the sun bleached, dusty bones of meaningless words...

    Do not feel sad for those old threads, they're not dead, they're merely waiting. They're waiting for the one. The one that would wake them. The one to give them soul. The one to give them a reason to relive the wonders and joys they once had.

    Do not feel bad for said threads. They seem to have lived their life and are nearing the end but by god they still got it. They still have the power to rise and stir up sensation amongst the youth and cause revolt and havoc. They still carry in them the power to challenge the authority and to shake the very foundation, resulting in some casualties as witnessed by our secret underground group meetings.

    Do not feel bad, these old bones still carry molten lava hot enough burn these fake heavens we live in

    Oh, poor threads that lie and wait; I weep
    Do not go gentle into thy good sleep,
    Rumble, rabble and give us the latest thing to plead,
    a rumor, a fad or at least some old news to read.

    "We get our beliefs at second hand", explains,
    Mark Twain, "we reason none of them out,
    with thought for ourselves." The use of search? Refrain!
    "It is the way we are made" we go that route
    to echo less like the evolutionary peak
    of monkey but sweaty little parrots
    munching protein bar with carrots
    and checking the color of what we leak.

    Piss off, here lies a poorly quoted study
    the bromance for the body
    of perfect carbs for fat reduction
    and latest coffee enema concoction
    Weep not for the thread that's gone
    But for the "marry, date, etc." spawn
    A comedy for Ground Hog Day
    I think now I'll have to go and play.
