What was your most popular thread?
:shrug:


Mine, of course, was Dupe. An accident that turned into a Lounge phenomenon. 1111 replies, and a lock by Skinner. Although his locking post isn't there anymore. :wtf: I swear Skinner locked it. :tinfoilhat:

1. "Jerry Falwell Wants You to Wag Your Penis in Your Son's Face..."
I think that was the longest I had. Not totally sure though.

10. I'm not able to find it
Maybe I'm just not good with searching the archives. I can't find it.

3. My first pic thread.
It was insanely long, I believe, because I felt like I had to reply to practically every response I got on the thread. In retrospect, I could have scaled back a bit.:rofl:

4. Mine barely broke 230 posts

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=104&topic_id=443058

However, I'll be rehashing this topic in about two years from now, let's see what happens then.

8. Probably my pic thread.
Edited on Fri Feb-24-06 12:01 AM by ZombieNixon
Came right after Lara's.

Second place goes to the one where I asked for advice on how to be bad in public. That was fun! :D

I had no idea it would get as many responses as it did. It's just something that popped out of my fingers and into the Lounge.

17. It got deleted so I can't share it.
But it was the semi-infamous "I'm not wearing a bra" thread, with pictoral evidence taken in a very cold room. It had a lot of replies and was generally great fun. :)

21. I have the pic though:


As far as I know the sex talk and flirting was the problem, not the pic itself as it isn't exactly revealing.

20. A Wesley Clarl Thread,
where I asked who the Clark supporters here were, over 350 replies. I had absolutely NO idea I'd get a response like that.

22. "My Most Important Job" by george w bush (graphics-heavy)
It was a lot of work, but judging from the number of recommendations it got, it resonated with a lot of DUers in the aftermath of Katrina and bush's nonresponsiveness.

24. My thread with the most responses for me was sad, actually...
The thread on my personal loss, last year......That was a tough time ... :cry:

Fortunately, time does heal these wounds....

25. Mine was a follow up to another thread linked to a survey
which was something like "how much of a pervert are you", which gave people their rating. Almost everybody, besides the very young, had scored quite high on the orignial thread. I asked older people to re-take the survey, but answer as they would have at age 18, and then post that score compared to their score at present age. It was quite interesting.

26. Harry Potter vs the Fundies
Good times, good times. :D

It was a Lakoff reading of Harry Potter, in which I frankly outdid myself.

It turned into a total flamewar on *another* site.

Good times, good times.

28. This dirty gem:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=4562348

I had typed it based on an experience that occurred shortly before, but didn't expect the massive response, thinking of the original post as only a quick thought. It received about 225 replies (some mine), pretty good considering it wasn't even a pic thread or word association thread.

29. "This Parking Space Reserved For Pregnant Women" was mine.
Not linking 'cause that thing went crazy. I just wanted to know if there really were spaces designated for expectant mothers anywhere in the US and all of a sudden--very heated feelings being exchanged. And for once, I hadn't even had any emotional investment in a topic I started. It was wacky.

30. Probably my "serious discussion about punk rock."
Edited on Fri Feb-24-06 06:33 AM by primate1
I dunno, it's the only one I can think of that didn't go Titanic on me. (And it only got 76 replies, haha.)

34. "The Face of a Democrat" or "Detroit is Dying" over in GD...
...The first one I posted during the primary "scuffles" when purists and moderates were ripping each other's throats out and stereotyping (think blue collar bastards and security/soccer moms) were at an all time high. Whenever somebody would post about "republican" women...their description always sounded quite a bit like me. So I posted about the differences in Democrats...That got a lot of positive response...and the typical snarky posts of those here who think they are somehow better, smarter and more liberal than the rest of us. :)

The second one I posted because...well, because, sadly, it's the truth. 1/4 of my friends and family (some college educated, some highly technically experienced) are out of jobs and fully one half of the work I am doing of late is on Foreclosure deals. :(

but only because there was a back-and-forth among several participants, not because there were so MANY participants...
