Before the Thread, there was the Bismarck Thread.

A glorious thread indeed that exceeded 10,000 posts (many heated exchanges in the pre Madcow days).

The Thread is still growing in Majesty and has yet to pass it's legendary predecessor.

If it hadn't have been for the untimley interuption, it most surely would have achieved it by now.

Not even close to what the Bismarck Thread went to.

a few more posts and this nonsense will hit 300 pages!!
what is the upper page limit on the matrix board ??[8|]

hmmm - originally, we were told it ("Bismark" Thread) was around 200 pages, then were told it was around 10000 posts, then we were told 600 pages. i am sure once we get up to 600 pages, we will be told it was 1000 pages...[8|][:'(]

Verily, there were something over 2000 posts in the original Thread, so, together they would be about 11,000 posts...

Speak not of the heathen Bismark thread.

There is no thread but The Thread. [&o]

I'm seriously considering skipping school today, as I've become so disgruntled with the whole thing I'm afraid I might "accidentally" toss someone out of a window...

non·sense (nŏn'sĕns')
n.
1. Words or signs having no intelligible meaning: a message that was nonsense until decoded.
2. Subject matter, behavior, or language that is foolish or absurd.
3. Extravagant foolishness or frivolity: a clown's exuberant nonsense.
4. Matter of little or no importance or usefulness: a chatty letter full of gossip and nonsense.
5. Insolent talk or behavior; impudence: wouldn't take any nonsense from the children.
