    Why does this thread keep getting bumped? It haunts me like some long kicked addiction, scratching away somewhere in the back of my brain. The moment I forget what happened here it pops up in notifications again and I'm off the wagon.

    I would like to capture Riddick Bowe’s reaction when he sees that it was debated for 85 pages.

    This thread should be pinned for its comedic value alone. It's a gem.
