What is your favorite Type of Thread?

If you choose none of the above, you're almost definitely lying to yourself. Just look at this forum.

Somebody say something interesting, please.

My favourite type of thread is one which doesn't illicite a pretentious, rambling and grammatically questionnable response from ahinton.

"Am I ready for Fantasy Impromptu".

We have not had one of those for a while.

My favourite type of thread is any thread with KBK and Nyireghyazi bickering on about everything. Almost eclipses the famous Thal-ahinton arguments.

Then there are those threads where someone asks for composer/piece suggestions and someone, usually a certain someone in particular responds with a long list of extremely obscure composers that nobody has ever heard of. It desperately screams 'look at me, look at all the obscure composers I know, look at how clever I am..."
