Just so desperate to make this thing happen, aren't you.
Keep plugging away, FMF.
I am ~ apparently ~ "still desperately seeking [my] own questionable legacy".

I remember that thread, and I remember thinking I better let you have the last word because it appeared as though you were getting mad at me because I wouldn't stop posting. 😉

By the way, did you get the last word?
You were in Thread 162509 which ran onto its 16th page, where Ponderable ended it with post #226.
The original Thread 143394 got to 40 pages, and Kewpie managed to kill it with post #594.
When it came to the second thread, I just didn't try hard enough. 🙁

Since Ice Cold's sticky thread hasn't got to 11,000 posts after seven years, I have a feeling that I won't be around to kill this thread. 🙂

I have an idea. I know it's crazy, but it could actually work if everyone got on board with it. All we need to do is to drag all the debates we're having in all the other threads into this one. We just tell the poster we're debating with in another thread that our reply is here in this thread. That way we can accelerate the process.

Can you imagine what it would look like with all debates going on in one thread? 🙂

Google translate does a good job with Indonesian. I like the idea of an all-purpose thread but it could get complicated.

all-purpose > complicated > prolific > 11,000

What's with the "but"?

"Drive" in what sense?
You can use a pile driver, big rig that drops a huge weight on the end of the post to make it go into the earth or you could use a post hole digger and drop it in. The second option is a lot cheaper but more manual labor kind of thing.

Sticky is small potatoes. Starrman's Word Association Game reached 40,000+ in four years. The successor, WAG2, got to 18,712 in eight years.

This is the "11,000 posts" thread. Talk of 40,000 posts is off topic.

When you say "thing", are you being deliberately unspecific?

I beg to differ.

I think there may be other threads where begging to differ is more apt. Having said that, thank you for edging us that little bit closer to our collective goal.
