39. Well, it's not Oscar worthy, but Sniffa's real-life threads are some of the best reading here!

Not laugh out loud funny, but one of the first classics (August 2001).

Yes, even in 2001, everyone here bullied the moderates away. I'm wondering how dumb I was in that I had been here for four months and yet didn't know what the little flame next to the posts meant.
