Facebook chat doesn't accept "facebook" as a word.

Well, since it doesn't only show cartoons anymore, I can let you "off the hook"!

Yeah, and Gmail's spell-check fails you for "internet". WTF?

This thread has taken on a life of its own. I luv it. LOL.

Indeed Michael, quite right! It does on upon a first glance appear as though this internet thread has taken for itself a life of its own. But, given an opportunity to scrutinize the details of this outwardly conspicuous situation, an arduous observer would do well to note that the internet is but a conglomerate of electronic machinery which uses data in a binary format to display preselected imagery upon a terminal screen. This equipment is merely that - simply machines - which are utterly devoid of organic "life" in the commonly upheld literal sense. Unfortunately, despite a vague sense of comedy intermingled in the ideology that the "thread has indeed taken up a life of its own", the application of Anthropomorphism in this situation is simply a fanciful daydream, and lacks any actual possibility in reality.

You did not use enough obscure or obtuse verbiage in your deconstruction of the prior post.

And all the proof I need of a thread taking on its own life is the Hot-Link special; almost always only a couple down from the top of the list. Just below the stickies. This one lacks a few (well, 310 at last count) pages of that effort, but it is fun.

(hand shoots up, waving wildly...) I knew! I knew! I was there just after Al Gore invented it, and he's almost as old as dirt.
