TOTW 10/07: What's so funny, huh?
serious crayons:
I asked TOoP/Bruce, our astute and inestimably talented BBM archivist, whether he by any chance had a copy of the famous "Cowboy Etiquette" thread, and he produced it right away! :-*, Bruce! So now I can correctly identify the poster of the funny laundromat-sign line. It was spottedreptile:

When parking outside your laundromat apartment, always park right next to the 'Laundromat entrance round front' sign, so everybody knows which entrance you really like to use.

Bruce has reposted the entire "Cowboy Etiquette" thread in the IMDb Remarkable Writings Rewound forum, and for anyone who hasn't seen it before, I highly recommend it. It is one of the funniest threads ever. I remember when I first read it was when I first began to feel like a true Brokie -- there I was, sitting in front of my computer in the middle of the night, cracking up over lines that I knew most people in the world would just find bewildering. Some of them still go through my mind whenever I watch the film.

P.S. On a more disturbing note -- I can't even find any poster on the thread named "naughtylibrarian"!!!! ??? :-X Where did I come up with THAT one?!?? Maybe I was thinking of poorlittleteacher, a frequent poster on that thread ... But why did it change in my memory into something more ... burlesquey? (My apologies, if there is a naughtylibrarian out there somewhere! [insert blushing emoticon here])
Ellemeno:
I lighten up, hunh, several times while watching the movie because of posts I remember when I see the scenes:
- The disappearing log when Jack is talking to Aguirre
- Cassie tossing her tresses from side to side
- "If I had three hands I could" (On that one I remember henrypie posting on IMDb the little IMDb icon with the caption, "If I had three eyes I could.")
- The view of the "piece of cherry" cake in the kitchen, with its lone cherry (though I read recently of someone seeing more).
- Even the shot of the semi before Ennis jumps out, because I remember the fateful apple that got put in that scene at the beginning of our wonderful Performance Thread.

Another one for me is the boot in the fire.

I love Jack telling Ennis lets git, unless ya wanta stand around tyin knots all day. And that
eyebrow thing Ennis does and the funny look he gives back.
He finds out Jack is going to be a force to be reckoned with..

I strongly suspect you are half-correctly remembering an IMDb user who goes by the name "The_Naked_Librarian" who posted on a number of threads when the movie first came out.
If you search the IMDb Remarkable Threads Rewind forum, you will find a few quotes from TNL.
