What is your favorite locked post you originated?
Mine is where I asked Naderites who they would vote for if Nader dropped out. The two choices were Pat Buchanan and Ted Kaczynski.

Or maybe it would be the one where I said men shouldn't have to pay for child support if women could get abortions.

1. This one got completely deleted
but I compared the bushbots' collective behavior to people on their knees and I made it really grossly sexual. I had the media and members of the bush administration um, doling out stuff on them.

I don't know what got into me that day! LOL!

6. OK. Were you attempting to provoke a flame war?
Or was it a serious belief of yours? Sometimes it's fun to provoke a good old-fashioned flame-war.

9. I'm not sure.
I see the point behind it, and once when I said it as part of a reply to another thread some people started agreeing with it. Plus I've seen a website advocating this idea.

3. Mine was
posting a link to a story about someone who got preppy Republican airheads to "service" him by posing as someone looking for a date to a Bush inaugural ball.

5. Oh fuck maybe I'll try that!
I'm assuming these were female airheads. Oh that's funny as fuck. It was a true story, wasn't it?

10. I totally forget what my locked post was about
Oh wait, it was a copycat, but it was before the "OK the fun's over" thing, and I think there was some double entendre, which got it locked as a sex thread.

12. I think it had to do with the IRA and Ulster.

IIRC, the temperature in GD got up to about 40 gazillion degrees, and the Mods had to don Nomex suits to lock it.

:evilgrin:

14. My thread title was "yes to vaginal sex...no to anal sex...Is it rape?"
After reading posts from about a million men on DU claiming not to know when a NO was ACTUALLY a NO...I posed the question in GD wherein a woman agrees to vaginal sex with a man...but says NO when anal sex is attempted...he does it anyway...I asked if that then met the criterion for rape in most men's minds.

You wouldn't believe the shit fest...it was one of the first threads on DU to get 500 posts.

That's seriously fucked up.

17. I only had one
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=1618448

I found it on page 83-oh I started from the end-page 93, and knew I had about 400 posts when I posted this. I was so pissed and the mod and PMd him vociferously for hours afterwards.... :P

It's not really a favourite thread or anything...It's just the Only.

19. Not my favourite, but the thread(s) that got me banned...
The original "Do You Have a Penis or a Vagina?" thread, which later lead to...

"I have a Penis. Does that make me a bad person?"

People seemed to like it, but, err, it spawned some copycats like "I have a Vagina. Does that make me a bad person?"

The final nail in my coffin, unbeknownst to me, was my thread asking which of Kerry or Edwards' daughters was the sexiest.

:spank:

20. The Princess Has a Favorite
It was her "Let's play 'What's your Fetish?'" Even Skinner got mad about that one. :-)

With over 28,000 posts, I've had dozens of threads locked. I'm afraid that if I mentioned a few of my biggies, this thread would get locked, too.
