    Metathreads about threads .


    :pac:


    Dole scroungers were all over the place a few months back, but that craze seems to have died down.

    Drink threads seem quite popular right now, and we're due a thread about thanks soon, it's almost been a week.

    I realise now that I let both myself and all the other posters in AH down with that sub-par post and would like to wholeheartidly apologise for my grave error. Anyone who has been traumatised by that post feel free to contact me via PM to arrange some form of reparations.

    The recession. It's a bit much really. I know it's a hot topic, but when you start a thread on digestive biscuits and people start giving out about bankers you know things have gone too far...

    Something inconsequntial happened my today and I feel the need to tell everyone. If i pose it as a poll / question, that will add validity to my post.
