RouxB had a fantastic idea to drum up some interest around here: every Thursday, everyone can bump an old favorite thread. Serious or silly, doesn't matter. Who knows, maybe it'll kick-start new discussion.
Let's try to keep links to them them archived on this thread, for future reference. Otherwise, a bumped thread can just drift back into oblivion.
For example:
1) I would like to
bump a favorite thread, "Brokeback Slang aka Much Ado About Brokeback".
2) I can use the
search function to find it--used
advanced search for key words (much ado) and click on "search in topic subjects only". I find it easily.
3) I go to the thread,
reply to the last message and say "bump" or some other message.
4) When I do this, I can
highlight the address (up top),
right-click to copy, and then
paste in this thread,
along with the title.
5) And it looks like this: I'll give the name of the thread:
"Brokeback Slang aka Much Ado About Brokeback" and the address:
