Just trying to see how fast I can get a thread locked. Anybody know what the current record is?

Actually I agree with your title. It's implication is that everybody should vote. My only caveat being that you should only vote if you are a citizen, but other than that this is a great title.

crap - I need more popcorn

You've already lasted too long.

Try adding a link to a p*** site!

Yeap, way too long. And it is a good idea if you are advocating that all citizens exercise their right to vote. I'm not sure that it is a good idea that they vote 4 times though as that would seem to lead to a 4 way tie.

If you're dead, vote twice!

You should have put the names in a different order, because now the way it shows up, Hillary and Obama are the only names you see. (Actually, that may get more attention instead of it you alternated Dem, Rep, Dem, Rep.) And I'm sure I could get the thread locked by using any number of combinbations of words and images, but I like being able to play here and don't want to be given a time out.

Troublemaker See if I ever help you find a hard to find auto manual again!

Yes, everyone should vote, if you don't vote you don't get to b*tch...

I used to have a t-shirt that said BAD POLITICIANS ARE SENT TO WASHINGTON BY GOOD PEOPLE WHO DON'T VOTE. But that assumes there are good politicians.

Leave room for an independant run by Michael Bloomberg!

I have no personal experience with this, but from what I've seen, in order to achieve a state of thread lockage as quickly as possible, you would proceed as follows:

Pick a thread or start a thread (politics, sports, religion, beer - the topic really doesn't matter all that much) in which you can bait or goad some other BNer into trading escalating personal insults with you.

If you escalate rapidly enough, keeping in mind that it ALWAYS takes 'two to tango', you will achieve thread lockage very quickly. Of course, this may also get you 'whacked' by local law enforcement (ie Mods) in which case we will remember you fondly, but never speak your name again.

I would like to add at this point that I find the local law enforcement here at BN to be friendly, firm and more than fair (and I hope I don't get 'whacked'! )
