1. Such a classic... Gather round DU youngsters. We're about to tell you a story...

[EastTennesseeDem]

2. I myself was still a few years away from joining.

Doesn't make it any less unbelievably funny.

[graywarrior]

3. A classic

Funniest thread on DU ever.

[tavalon]

16. Easily

I still laugh seeing it this twenty or thirtieth time. It just doesn't stop being funny.

[tavalon]

18. Since you are here, tell the youngin's about the duck, er, duct, er, you know what I mean...........

[graywarrior]

19. This one?

Or this one

[tavalon]

5. Such a work of pure genius that it deserves - an Oscar!

[EastTennesseeDem]

6. Oh dear. That was...painful.

[GoneOffShore]

7. I can't believe I just read that entire thread.

Comedy gold I tell you, comedy gold.

[EastTennesseeDem]

8. Of all the brilliance, I think my favorite line is...

"Just a normal, regular size remote."

9. Would have, could have, should have

10. Oscar!!! You're home!!!

I know people hate hearing this but we used to be smarter and funnier around here.

[tavalon]

17. But, even now, we have our moments

As always, it takes a bit of fairy dust and some other assorted magic, but we can get our mojo going again. I personally love the true metathreads, not the ones in Meta but the ones that just spontaneously, um, combust.

11. Ah yes. .

sigh and kick

12. Damnit . . .

I started reading that thread, became engrossed in it, and forgot to switch channels to a movie I wanted to watch! Damn chupacabra!

[velvet]

13. What time is it?

Time I read this again. Thank you.

There should be a DU Hall of Fame sticky in the Welcome & Help forum, and this the first thread listed.

[Drahthaardogs]

14. Talk about a blast from the past.

I was a DUer in Alaska when that thread came out. Now how about the story of greywarrior's duct taped duck and the mission to free him from his bindings.

I loved this thread first time around. I shall enjoy it for the hundredth.

There is another one I love too. While not as filled with wordy mirth, it was hilarious in it's own clipped and austere way:

Walt Starr: "Skinner, just tombstone me right the f*** now!"

Skinner: "OK."
