Funniest Threads Ever?

[Biker13]

What are the funniest threads in the history of The Lounge? I just read "Accusatory post alluding to an unnamed gang on DU" and my sides still hurt! What are some others I might have missed?

[woo me with science]

1. Photoshop McTongue Challenge!

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x7479912

(not a Lounge thread, but a classic!)

[Biker13]

5. Oh that's perfect!

I'm still going through them, and laughing like hell! Thanks!

Biker's Old Lady

[many a good man]

96. Santorum family Pity Party PhotoShop thread was the funniest of all time.

Tho, ahem, not one of DU's finest moments. Ahem. Does anyone have a link?

[woo me with science]

2. "I inherited a mixed animal from Uncle living in the woods" (AKA the "Oscar" thread)

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=624815

[Biker13]

6. Oh My God!

I caught that one a few months ago when it was referred to in another "animal" thread! I loved the fact that so many posters took it seriously and demanded a picture! I can't blame them though, I did the same before I was up to speed on the Lounge! But that one clinched it for me, the wittiest people on the internet post here!

8. Sheer brilliance if ever I've seen it.

[Rosie1223]

3. My personal favorite: Things not to say at "Passion of the Christ"

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=105x818212

:hi:

[Biker13]

7. Jesus Rosie!

Now THAT's funny! "Can you put me up for the night" had me going for a full three minutes! Biker13 thinks I've gone insane! THANK YOU!

I'll never post on these threads, you guys are just too good!

Biker's old Lady

[Curmudgeoness]

18. Post anytime, bikers old lady. This one worked for you.

And we are all enjoying it too. Never ever let yourself be intimidated by the really witty ones here. Just enjoy them. And post whatever and whenever you want. Remember this is not GD.

[Biker13]

29. Thank You Curmudgeoness!

I steer clear of GD, and LOVE the people here. I lurked for years and finally Biker13 signed up, and I started posting here. I do love this place, and again, the wittiest, smartest posters on the web! I can't tell you how many times you guys have made my day with your clever retorts! Lordy, someone should write a book about these threads!

Biker's Old Lady

[MiddleFingerMom]

You're in good company... and vice versa.

[Biker13]

41. Thank You MiddleFingerMom!

You're somewhat of a legend in our house. Biker13 thinks you're certifiable!

Biker's Old Lady

[pacalo]

43. MiddleFingerMom most certainly IS the bestest ever!

[bif]

9. Absolutely one of the best!

And it went on for days!

[WilliamPitt]

20. GOD DAMN

39. "How does he eat M&Ms with those holes in his hands?"

[underpants]

109. If I may so presumptuous to throw out another thread- Tim Russert throws like a girl

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=104&topic_id=1627230

[Biker13]

112. Biker13 says I throw like a girl!

I'm not at all insulted! I am a GIRL, and proud of it!

He also calls me "The whitest woman I've ever known", 'cause he's a "Blues Man" and plays the slide. That doesn't insult me either. Guess I just have a better sense of humor than most of the other posters on GD.

Again, I LOVE the Lounge!

Perspective people! Perspective!

Biker's Old Lady

[Richardo]

117. !!!

75. Oh god, OM was infuriating!

:banghead:

[seabeyond]

12. blogsluts is classic. a hoot. dont know how to search for it though. nt

No mistake, I love the crazies!

Biker's Old Lady

[WilliamPitt]

21. Oscar

[Richard Steele]

30. I just re-read the old "Got my ass kicked at the museum" thread and laughed again....

35. Joy.

[kimi]

113. I remember reading that thread once before

and just re-read it again. I am about crying laughing.

Too damn funny. I needed that!!

[petronius]

28. Meta-physical question: because this thread now contains all the others,

does this become the funniest Lounge thread ever?

Some great stuff I hadn't seen - glad you asked it!

[Biker13]

33. Thanks petronius!

My first thread, and I'm happy I asked too! Geart stuff here!

Biker's Old Lady

[WilliamPitt]

End of discussion.

A-Schwarzenegger is a living God.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

45. General Clark says voters are like "troops" in "the motor pool."

Oscar was ok, but General Clark in the motor pool was something else.

[Richardo]

38. Call Congress. RIGHT FUCKING NOW.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=364&topic_id=1871714&mesg_id=1871714

Good times. :rofl:

[Hippo_Tron]

54. Agreed on Call Congress. RIGHT FUCKING NOW.

I had my political differences Tyler Durden, but as far as I'm concerned he's a DU legend for that thread.

[NuclearDem]

81. Tell them to pass a law banning all Olive Gardens!

RIGHT FUCKING NOW!

[Biker13]

89. Fuck!

I'm naming my next dog Congress!

Biker's Old Lady

[distantearlywarning]

102. Yeah, that one gets my vote for best of all time

I remember reading that thread when it happened and laughing so hard I thought I was going to pee my pants. And it never did get explained exactly what we were all supposed to be calling Congress about RIGHT FUCKING NOW.

[Kaleva]

40. Bookmarked this thread. Hilarious reading!

[EastTennesseeDem]

44. "Imagine Chris Matthews' head floating outside your window."

This one went largely unnoticed but I haven't forgotten it.

[Odin2005]

76. OMG!!!!!!!!!

47. Here's one started by Skinner.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=3499154

[Brother Buzz]

53. Here's a very short succinct one ended by Skinner.

Epic!

[woo me with science]

61. That was truly a work of art. nt

[LearnedHand]

70. Dang, I really miss those meta-threads

[Biker13]

90. Epic is right!

I moved to Idaho from NJ when I retired. The newspapers out here carry letters debating creationism vs evolution every single day!

I'm a retired Professor of Theoretical Mathematics, and it truly saddens me...

[Biker13]

91. Biker13 has always said...

"I didn't fight for my country for four years to be told where I could piss!"

Fortunately, our neighbors are far enough away so they can't see him! He SWEARS his piss makes the pumpkins grow larger! But we don't eat them, just enter them in the state fair.

[Arugula Latte]

52. YES! Funniest thread ever.

[Arugula Latte]

64. This is my favorite part of my favorite thread

401. LynneSin: Why do you hate unfresh people - they have rights too you know

You probably segregate them at gathering - if you smell dirty go stand over there in that other corner away from us fresh people.

You are an unfreshaphobe


402. jakefrep: The "unfresh" people caused 9/11

besides, who wants to hang out with stank-ass peeps?

[underpants]

105. That and the Oscar thread were two that I had no involvement in but marveled at the majesty of them.

very funny

[Biker13]

110. Now That's Just Scary!!

I'm glad I stay away from GD, no sense of humor.

Thank you Lounge, for being you!

What a mess to deal with every time I came on shift in the Hot Tub.

:banghead:

[distantearlywarning]

103. Wow, what a stubborn ignoramus in that thread.

Glad I missed that one the first time. :crazy:

[rurallib]

63. May i humbly submit the "Oscar Mayer Dies" thread?

maybe a little gentler humor than others.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=102x3958559

I will be coming back to this thread for days just to get it all.

65. 'mainly because half the people I was with believed it until I explained the situation to them'

It started when an inexperienced user started a new post when a reply to an existing post was intended. The comments in that thread were hilarious.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=6739759&mesg_id=6739759

[rug]

67. The poor guy never posted again.

[Fire Walk With Me]

71. That's marvelous.

Old, old thread, but new to me!

[LearnedHand]

73. I know, right?

I laughed so hard I wet myself when I read that thread. Strangely enough, he wasn't around for very long. Hmmm. Wonder if the Rapture happened and I missed it?

[Odin2005]

74. Using corn flakes for breading chicken!

:yoiks:

[fishwax]

77. The "Name Deleted"/"Deleted Message" Thread was quite entertaining

it wasn't a lounge thread, and unfortunately it was subsequently removed, so I can't link it for you. But basically it involved the discovery that one could create posts that didn't appear on the regular thread, but they did kick the thread and appear in an alternate-reality thread. It started with some deleted message from some normal thread that, through some unknown glitch, was posted as a new thread when the mods deleted it.

It was memorable :)

Scroll down to reply #48 and follow it if you can. You'll enjoy it.

A sample from this conversation between me and LynnZ:

"91. You're asking ME what the hell it's all for?


Actually, that's not a bad idea on your part because, although very few people know and none of them are saying, I do happen to be one of them at least on occasion, and I suspect that you might be one also, but because if nobody's talking, well, that does make communication kind of difficult, doesn't it?

Not sure about that yver girl, if she really is one, an yver I mean, much less THE one, the TRUE yver, I mean has anyone ever seen her in the same room as oh, let's just say, Jenna Bush, which would be a real riot, but highly dubious given the circumstances, but it could be so even so, and because of that I'll be depending on you more than ever, if you have even a shred of decency left, and I know you do, much more than a shred actually, if I'm not mistaken and I don't think I am, because you're much more perceptive in picking up the nuances of both girls of all sorts, sometimes even before they know what they're up to, and that dude as well, because hey, you know we can't forget him nor let him stray from our basilisk gaze, because the goddam commies might slip him a note on the sly, which as you know they're awfuly good at, and it might even be a note that the girl we're thinking about could be transporting, or picking it up during one of her mysterious stops, and if this nightmare scenario plays out, the dude might very well ditch the shirt, probably in a place where it would cause the most collateral damage, and THEN how the hell are we going to find out if it indeed fits?

Your husband hasn't started any suspicious unannounced dieting lately, has he? Or conversely, begun pounding down Budweiser mixed in Carnation Instant Breakfast followed by multiple Double Whoppers with Cheese, has he? Of course, that in and of itself would not be a clue to the mystery of the THING, if that dude just mysteriously, for some odd reason, has started to do the same himself lately, not that I think he and your husband are in cahoots, notwithstanding the doubts I am starting to have about the girl.

But I keep foregetting, when you originally mentioned the dude, you commented not only on his shirt and parenthetically I think the THING as well, but also you cast some pretty dark aspersions on his hair if memory serves, though all it's been serving me lately has been wizened sardines on something resembling a bloated Triscuit,and you know when you cast aspersions on someone's hair they can have a tendency to stick, so we might have a leg up on the situation as long as nobody finds out.

I think I'm starting to see a pattern develop here."

Bless your hearts, all of yas. :hi:

[Paper Roses]

116. I just finished reading the Oscar thread. What a way to wake up!

Now I'll clean the coffee of my desk and schedule some time later to read more. It was genius and funny as anything. Good blizzard reading material. If we don't lose power, I will probably read it again.
