Where is our epic thread?

Every other cool forum seems to have their share of epic threads.

I've tried and tried to create the vibe for an epic, but few if any follow the lead.

Do you guys not want to be epic?

Do you not want your comments to forever be forged in the annals of epic forum history?
http://www.encyclopediadramatica.com/Epic_threads

We have enough witty and intelligent gents here to create one heck of an epic.

What's wrong with you guys?

But remember, epic spelled backwards is cipe. And you know what that means.

You can't plan an epic thread, it just has to happen. It's like getting up in the morning and having a great bowel movement. After it's done, you are just glad it happened.

You mean epic like The Odyssey?

I don't know we can recreate something like that. Or that we should even try. I'm a little concerned that you consider some of those threads you linked as "epic". I think guod's right, they're more like cipe. Or add an "r" and an "s" and you have "cripes". More apropos I think.

Good luck on your odyssey to goodness.

I don't know about epic threads but at least here is a song named Epic.



Happy Now?

I thought my solo flight video was pretty epic; at least for me.

OG slumps his shoulders and walks away taking a parting kick at the ground.

Someday your life will flash in front of your eyes. Make sure it is worth watching.

See, you guys have wit! There is definite potential here... we are definitely epic waiting to happen.

Epic threads can only happen in a mature forum (mature as in been around a while and the members are keen enough to feel each others vibe). Look I know epic just happens and it can't be forced. This is just an epic pep talk.

Oh, and David Hasselhoff is definitely a key player in an epic thread.

I thought any thread Beach posts pictures of his wife in a two piece is pretty epic.

What is scary is that the Hoff didn't do too bad of a job with that song.

What have I become?
