sam-cParticipantdid the wax on sign thread disappear? I went back to read it after being off-forum for 2 days, was in the middle of reading it, logged in to comment, and now it’s gone?

MargLMemberI’m betting it was deleted because there was no indication that the OP contacted the business management with the complaint before posting here… It probably would have been deleted sooner if someone had pointed it out to TR – but it was so funny!

seaopgalParticipantStill there … Jissy just bumped it for you.

wakefloodParticipantI’m not even sure there’s a second place?? ;-)

SonomaParticipantDefinitely the thread of the year, and not even by a hair. Probably the distant runner-up is guy sleeping in car outside house. Or something related to dogs, rude dog owners, rude dogs, people who are rude to dogs, dogs who are rude to dogs, etc.

sam-cParticipantthanks! for some reason, when I log in, some threads go back in time. Like, I’ll look at my profile, the thread heading/link has disappeared, but it says
‘2. Most recent reply: 43 years ago.’
I don’t know how that happens, but maybe has to do with cookies or something.

WSBKeymasterHaven’t had to delete any threads in quite some time. Please don’t make assumptions. Re: the thread in question, I actually was the one who pointed the OP here in the first place after she e-mailed me to mention that she wondered what others thought of the sign. What better place to solicit opinions?
I too had seen the sign quite some time ago; one other person had brought it up in e-mail and I also suggested she post here, though that person apparently did not follow up, but my first question is “what did the business say?” and that person indicated yes, it had been brought to their attention, and they were simply thanked for their concern.
And yes, if you ever see some real tech quirk/problem here, clearing your cache will likely fix it. A long slow process of trying to upgrade continues moving along, something like a triple-tractor-trailer full of boulders going up a 20-degree grade, but we’ll get there. The forum is six years old this month, by the way. And in Internet years, that’s forever.

JKBParticipantThread of the Month maybe… but beware of Poopyhead.

CaitParticipantJanS – HAHA!
December 10, 2013 at 11:12 pm #801232
SonomaParticipantTrue, “Hey Poopyhead” from 11 months ago was a classic. That’s the problem with awards: The earlier ones sometimes get overlooked as award season draws near. If nothing else, it should earn top prize for best subject line.

waynsterParticipantI wonder what Mrs Cleaver would say on the way they are talking about her little beaver……just a little pun… :0)….lmao
December 11, 2013 at 12:26 am #801234
seaopgalParticipantI like the idea of forum awards. What should we call them? The Beavies? Poopies? Are individuals eligible, or just threads?

2 Much WhineParticipantI also like the one about the gift that was left on a bench – that was touching. https://westseattleblog.com/2012/02/reader-report-teen-finds-mystery-gift-on-west-seattle-bench/#comments

SonomaParticipantLove TOYs and 2 Much Whine’s categories. I’ll have to buy a new gown and some diamonds for the gala awards ceremony.
December 11, 2013 at 3:52 am #801239
JanSParticipantdiamonds…wow…wonder if one of the jewelers in town will let us borrow some, like the celebs at the Oscars do…
December 11, 2013 at 4:32 pm #801240
wakefloodParticipantWhine’s categories are perfect. Possible add?
