Why was the "fun" thread locked?
Why was the "fun"thread titled "The last person to post here wins" locked?
In case all of you didn't know, I don't seem to realize how all of your senses of humor. I posted a thread about this to make you aware, but now I think my obliviousness is really coming into play.
If someone could have a serious, lighthearted discussion with me in the near future, I would greatly appreciate it.

This is a rather silly question, Jason. Ben explains why it was locked: so HE could win. You really should be thinking a little before you post, no offence mate

I'm sorry, David.
I bet you can all hear the Countdown clock "ticking on down" in your sleep, can't you?

No, but whenever I see threads like this, I can hear the theme tune to the Twilight Zone.Jason Larsen wrote:I'm sorry, David.

They showed The Twilight Zone in the UK? I didn't know that.

I was at the dentist on Wednesday and I made my dentist proud, so you all better believe I'd be smiling if I met any of you in real life.

Here are two videos created by a gentleman called Simon Tofield, called Simon's Cat. I think these are very good animations.

Whatever part of England it was snowing in, it must have been very rare especially around this time of year!
Unbelievable!
