Noticing that the American cars - why the haters thread is running at over 2100 posts, and has degraded to the level of racial insults, got me wondering which long running thread is the most pointless/ridiculous ever to grace the pages of PH.

I'm sure there have been worse ones!

It is a bit of a stupid question to be honest.
Plus, if you are talking about 'pointless threads' then the "American Cars- WHy the haters?" is a poor example too. Unneccesarily long but still a fair question.

P&P is full of threads like "WHich t-shirt shall I buy to go to the pub in as I am a total spastic and can't choose myself one" whic are all so ludicrously pointless that you barely remember them.
Bye.

Many thanks SE, I knew there were a few people on here that worked there, I couldn't quite put my finger on them!
Cheers!

"Unicorns" seemed rather pointless and quite surreal with some of the posts (including my own) hehe

Any fking Cats vs Dogs thread should simply be locked as a matter of course. Perhaps an "auto-lock" feature in the post-parser.

It would be all too easy to characterise her seemingly never-ending quest for answers to the world's most obvious and banal questions as signifying the presence of a stultifyingingly tedious halfwit.

So I'll do that.

I didn't realise there was such an abundance of spinsters on here.

See this is a negative thread. We need one where we debate and venerate the top ten threads ever how that would be in itself pointless so it would appear in this thread as one of the most pointless and thus does the circle complete.

Are you related to nervy? That is my new favourite insult.
