what is up with the anal fascination with only having one thread on a particular topic? I mean really is it necessary to have one topic per idea? is another thread really going to be that much of a problem? Is it really going to present a considerably greater strain on the server than just loading one thread with millions of replies that might not have any cohesive structure? whats . . . uh . . . the deal? Methinks its sort of a Grand Old Boys thingy, the idealogy that what has been posted in the past is somehow the end all be all in the land of this forum, a forum that isnt as active as many I frequent. Instead of having an attitude that all new thoughts and ideas should be embraced it seems to this lone soldier that on the contrary fresh takes are nothing but a nuisance. Why not let those old threads go and fade into the past? Is the future that scary of a proposition? Is the past so euphoric that one should strive to cling to it without concern of what is now or what may be? Why not just let all the duplicate threads be, welcome them and new members? The strain on the server can be allieviated by deleting all of the old threads that do nothing but embrace a hollow sunken image of what was but will never be again. Breathe life into this corpse instead of continuously pumping embalming fluid into a cadaver. Is this really that radical of an idea? Is this more earth shattering than a Spanish explorer making the claim that he believed despite all scientific data suggesting otherwise that the world was indeed round? I say lets turn the page, close the door and march forth confident in the future. Leave the past where it belongs . . . dead.
that said the last movie I have seen is Blow and it made me crave cocaine like nothing else . . .
