To be fair
Sam's thread is really only bested by
Kate's Thread (VNSFW!) in messageboard lore. Only
The Pretty Girl Thread (Oh god, NSFW) has, on any messageboard I've ever spent time on, been a consistant better source of entertainment.
Ironically, I think the Mage thread here has them all beat in the long term.
(EDIT: While being far more educational, although not nearly as interesting in other ways.)
(EDIT: For the non-feint of heart, I recommend the threads above. I've half joked with acedemics I know that a course on the history of the Internet messageboard could be taught based on Kate alone. No, not that the thread is a good thing, only that it is the entire mess that is irc, messageboards, bbc and so on reduced to even less than usual. With a critical eye there is great source for amusement there. Without, there is nothing but vulgarity of course. I find human nature to be endlessly amusing though.)
