thread-shitting

Posting off topic messages to a discussion forum. Usually, but not always, with purposeful intent to derail the discussion.

Example post for thread-shitting:

"I just ate a huge bean burrito for lunch! There really wasn't enough cheese in it, but the extra Pico made up for it. It was quite satisfying."

Thread Jacking

Taking over a thread on a message board by taking a part of the original posted topic, twisting it around and "hijacking" the thread itself. What happens is that the original content contained in the post becomes moot and whatever the "Thread Jacker" has manipulated the content to be becomes the new content thereby "hijacking" the original intent of post. People now respond to the "thread jacker's" input and the that becomes the focus of the tread.

LK25 did an excellent job of thread jacking Koko's post on Dennis Landolt.

Koko's posted topic on Dennis Landolt (PSU Football player) and comments regarding his development on Penn States FOS site becomes indictment of whole offensive line:

KokobewareHI: "Why do I feel like this thread is about to get hijacked? What happened to my original question?"

PSUnittany: "LK25, the thread was about Landolt & his progress...and (of course) you spin it into another "the staff is lazy at recruiting - we are doomed!" threads...It's so tiresome. Please link me to any threads that you don't hijack & ruin. Thank you."

OCCalif: "Although LK25 has jacked this thread to a degree, I feel his concerns are somewhat valid- we should be concerned about our offensive line."

Epic Thread

1. (n) Internet forum thread that features disproportionately large amount of win. Usually originates at the expense of a forum member posting something amazingly stupid. Can also originate from an image that gets Photoshopped many times throughout the course of the thread in pursuit of hilarity.

Someone asked for a picture of an FJ Cruiser and a porta-potty on The Car Lounge Forums and the consequent hilarious replies eventually elevated the thread to epic thread status.

Thread abuse

Alice just rsvp'd to my party replying to my minutes from our weekly meeting. Oh man that is total thread abuse
