thread killer

A person who makes some kind of awkward comment on a status thread, which stops the thread dead in it's tracks.

Some of the reasons for the thread stopping on the thread killer's comment:

1. Other threaders don't know this person well, so take the comment in a negative light.

2. They remember her/him being a "weirdo" in school/former or current job, etc.

3. Other comments in the past by the thread killer were confusing and possibly: crude, inappropriate or might appear hurtful, due to the absence of a smilies or winkies.

Look at how long this badminton status thread was going, until Brian commented this:

The best strategy is to try to hit the shuttlecock straight into the opponent's naughty places.

He sure is a thread killer!

thread killer

One who posts in a very popular thread on a message board, and then kills it. It will stay 'dead' from 20 minutes to a week, then the thread is fucked, and has no chance of become a great thread again. Just like a pron star that had testy cancer.

Thread Killer

A “thread killer” is a member of a group text who sends a comment so wheels off that the other members cease conversation.

Rage replied to a text thread with:

“My b-hole is hairy...I don't shave it, so when explosive shit comes at 120 mph, it's like a Brazilian wax”

Rage is a thread killer

ThreadKiller 

a biting wit seen on facebook that effectively kills the thread, regardless of topic. 45 comments might be flowing freely on a thread, and then this person comes in, and either through wit, political incorrectness or pure non sequitur, prohibits anyone else from posting to the thread, effectively 'killing it'

dude did you see that thread that john had on his page?

yeah it was great until that guy posted the cameltoe pic!

i know, what a threadkiller.
