Is it possible?
Do you think the admins would ban kudzu threads?

Kudzu II is showing staying power, so I was just wondering: what if? What if Kudzu II also broke 1000 posts, and eventually the mods locked it. It seems likely someone would start a Kudzu III. And a Kudzu IV? How many Kudzu threads before kudzu becomes une topique interdit?

:crazy:

4. Kudzu
is a fast-growing exotic invasive vine that is slowing carpeting the South.

21. What are you saying?
Sometimes kudzu is just kudzu?

Are you sure kudzu does not stand for

However, baseball Is a big deal, especially in Baltimore, and I love that game, too. :D

22. I think the 2nd one is growing on me
First, I thought it was lame and derivative - a mere copycat of a legend, but now I think it is becoming its own legend that fits with the first. The kudzu thread was a thread that would not die. Okay, it finally got napalmed by a moderator, but just like kudzu, it spread itself with seeds and one of those seeds took root and so this new thread is a continuation of the legend. The legend lives on, and, like true love, it will never die!

23. Like as the waves make towards the pebbled shore,
So do our minutes hasten to their end;
Each changing place with that which goes before,
In sequent toil all forwards do contend.
Nativity, once in the main of light,
Crawls to maturity, wherewith being crown'd,
Crooked elipses 'gainst his glory fight,
And Time that gave doth now his gift confound.
Time doth transfix the flourish set on youth
And delves the parallels in beauty's brow,
Feeds on the rarities of nature's truth,
And nothing stands but for his scythe to mow:
And yet to times in hope my verse shall stand,
Praising thy worth, despite his cruel hand.

:D

27. Nay, neigh, cut it down!
What sort of poet tries to rhyme "mow" and "brow"? :wtf:

That first word should be replaced by "plough" showing that the circle of life continues. "All who are born die, and all who die are reborn." The scythe cuts down one crop, but the plough prepares the field (okay, it actually rapes the earth, as Wendell Barry said "beating swords into ploughs is just exchanging one weapon for another") for next spring.

"I am undone!"

I still do not think "mow" rhymes with "brow", although it might have, way back when.

34. Like the real thing, kudzu threads have taken root and
cannot be exterminated no matter how hard anyone tries. Admins banning kudzu threads can't stop it, and neither can pesticides. :P It's here to stay.

re-start threads from threads locked elsewhere...maybe it's all like, "sometimes they feel like a nut, sometimes they don't", the almond joy approach to site admin :shrug:
