My nomination for the first classic TT thread:

I found a turd in my pack! by Violin.

I don't think I've ever seen a thread that was as funny as the "turd in my pack" thread. Post worthy competitors here.

Ooops
That was the "My left foot" thread which I was reading as referenced from the I found a turd in my pack! thread.

Here is the correct link:

It would have been funnier had I known that Violin neither owns a backpack nor does he hike.

I have to suggest Sarabelle's "Skeery Wulfbear" thread. That's a gut-buster.

RE: What is your art?
"Actually, Rad is funnin' with you, he is referring to "ART FART" the immortal Dadist poem which is widely considered to be the greatest English language work ever in the Dadaist tradition.

He obviously studied the Dadaist while he was geetting his art degree. (if you are curious, do a web search using the terms "Dadaist" and "art"

"ART FART" cleverly moves between using the title as a reference to traditional notions of art which Dadism rejected, and a hysterical portrayal of a man name "Arthur Fart" who is widely assume to be a caricature of the German philospher Arthr schopenhauer.

I thought Rad was being silly, but in his next poem he used a line from one of the most famous Stanza's:

Art read
poems joyful,
and poems teary,
but 'til he farted,
I just growed weary."

Well, the Nightcrawlers thread should be nominated as it is the largest thread ever and will be around a long long time.

There have been a couple of "instant classics". Modesty prohibits me from linking to them.

The nightcrawlers thread is definitely a classic. Maybe not as hilarious as some of the others, but at 11,000+ posts and still floating, it's got half the board posting to it...
