All of these were fun to keep up with....

These were the ones I could think of off the top of my head.

Gonna depend on the application, but I would think Goodyear or Michelin will be highly rated. :-"

Definitely billg's "Goldfish".

I remember when that thread was posted. I had already sort of pegged "Bill" as a really likable wacky guy, and looked forward to some of the off the wall things he came up with.

Never in a million years did I think he would "honestly" ask if it was a good idea to put hundreds of goldfish in his pool for his kid's birthday party. The thought of a terrible goldfish massacre witnessed by screaming frantic children still makes me chuckle.

It seems that most of the listed threads in the poll were either posted to be humorous (like Country's excellent self deprecating humor), or perhaps the results of trolls just being idiots.

Bill's thread was (IMHO) completely innocuous and candid, and thus it is the greatest.

I voted for briannesucks' shpo thread. Awesome screen name, hilarious drunk postings and 'poof'... gone.

We still use shpo and other excerpts from those threads in our daily hilarity.

Classic.

That was a very good thread. There were some threads that came afterwards that were similar (maybe the same author) that have been lost to the ages. I wish I could find those.

There have been many over the years, however, shpo came to mind before I even saw the choices.

The shpo and Beyder's threads were corny good. However, I was going to write in any one of Rugrunner's gems or my "outing deadbeat traders" thread but went with the goldfish instead after Andy waxed so eloquently...

The goldfish in the pool thread by a wide margin.

All of my Cbid-related fantasy football teams have been called Pool-Fish or some variation. Nuff said.

Special recognition for Country and his butt -- one of the funniest original posts ever --- stands on its own without a peanut gallery. Almost hate to acknowledge this azzhat, but jimmy's little blue-pill night, while it didn't have the legs, was pretty damn funny, too.

All I know is that Andy waxes oh so eloquently when there's a pole, er, poll involved.[gonzo]

Btw, Country's threads are usually pretty clever & funny but oftentime I end up shaking my head and feeling bad for the cute lil' big nosed bastid. Hope things are ok, bro.

(threadjack on)

Wait a minute... Coop, your question's beginning to make sense... it's becoming clear(er)... Sorry, it helped that live with a woman (plenty of practice dephering marital code) & that I took this tight hat off my big noggin and set the circulation a-flowin'.

If you're referring to rugrunner, yes he did. Not so much with me though. I heard others complain...

What I sent him were gifts not to be reciprocrated in kind. Although I'll always miss Brokbilt's(sp?) beautiful iron cross ashtray that I foolishly forwarded to Rug after he commented on how great it looked. That's how I was raised...

(threadjack off)- meaning no disrespect to certain posters
