Thanks for compiling everything. It was hard to choose since I wanted to pick a thread that I got to see develop but those weren't necessarily filled with the best ownage. Oh well, nice list of some epic threads.

As a side note, I just read 15 for the first time and wow. NSFW actually gave some nice advice to the OP who was acting out of line but the rest of the people in the thread, namely alfa all acted like douches.

What was that about?

Well, for some reason a whack load of atoters just decided to post dollar value titled threads as parody or something or other.

This solicited (justified) angry response from mods and vacationss were handed out. Interesting enough Walking in Circle was listed TWICE in the vacation list :D

JohnCU comes back from said vacation and then promptly gets vacationed again due to posting a thread that borders on babe thread but someone else turned it inot a babe thread.

He missed the Neffing contest he started :)

That was no ownage, that was called fun. It should happen more often and it should be done in the spirit of hilarity.

That was my thought too... Mosh zinged Bugi and Bugi defended herself - with witnesses. But the thread does have pics of Bugi... That's almost enough for me to vote for it, ownage or not. :p

For me its gotta be #1. Although I might make an appearance in here if I keep starting shit with the book readers, who knew they were so up-in-arms about their lines of text?
