I have nothing to add to the discussion of this thread, but this thread does seem to be getting a lot of attention and I feel left out, so I'm going to add a long comment that has a good number of words and rambles about vaguely related things, like this one time when I saw someone talking about something like, but also unlike this thread and it was interesting, but I had nothing to say, so I just eavesdropped on their conversation, and then another time i was looking at yelp and i thought i saw a listing for this thread, but then I realized it was actually a different thread on the southside with a similar name, and who can be bothered to go all the way to the southside anyway, it's like a whole different country and stuff down there, you know what I mean?!?!?!?!? I AM ALSO ALLERGIC TO PERIODS!!!!! This thread seems to have a lot of periods; has anyone else noticed that? Can I go to this thread if i don't use periods?

You know I went to this thread 3 times this week, and I agree. This is an awesome thread. The points are subtle yet well made, with just the right amount of sarcasm. The writers take the time to provide fresh insights while pulling themes from other threads, offering a new perspective on threads with a comfortable feel.

Yes, I am aware that this thread doesn't have an actual topic. But this thread has a right to be the thread the OP intended. Maybe the OP would like to spend time with his family, and doesn't have time to develop a topic. Perhaps he is focusing so much on the inteligent review of threads in general to spend time pumping out banal information for the masses. What gives us the right to say this thread has to be like all the other threads on LTH, with culinary discussion, pictures of food, and worthwhile information? This thread is exactly what it sets out to be, and it is doing it with thought, care, and a full knowledge of what it takes to make an interesting and thought provoking thread.

So I say this thread does exactly what it sets out to do, while entertaining some and aggrivating others. It is my favorite thread, and obviously a big favorite of the board. If you find yourself unable to enjoy this thread please take your reading elswhere. There will be more room for my posts here!

Maybe it's just me and finals week, but I just don't get this business about thread. Thread, like molecular gastronomy, is dead. The future, I say, is silicone.

Take this thread!

I don't know which sucks worse:
A. This thread
