sweater thread

Something better left alone where one thing leads to another resulting in disaster, like the thread of a sweater that when pulled unravels the whole garment.

That whole relationship was a sweater thread.

Don't go there. That is one sweater thread you do not want to pick at.

Cross thread

When your gal is menstrating and you tie a tampon on your dong and screw her.

bite your thread

Compose a well thought out response and not post it because it is socially or otherwise better not to.

"They're very stubborn. Don't waste your time on them, bite your thread."

Coup de thread

When a thread on a forum or site suddenly disappears and is taken over by another thread of larger size. This happens frequently when there is breaking news and news sites like reddit have to decide which thread is going to be the main discussion point.

Person 1:Hey dude, what happened to that one thread you posted after the egyptian army removed Morsi from power? I cant find it anywhere!
Person 2: A coup de thread took place, I was first but the other one took off and has all the comments now
Person 1: Dang dude, all that sweet karma you could have earned.

Tag Team Thread

A Tag Team Thread or Triple T is when a person on Yelp with no review starts a thread requesting a service or restaurant and another Yelper with no reviews posts the answer with the sole purpose of backhanded advertising on the threads.

This term was derived by Carla L of the Miami Yelp Flelpers

Yelper #1 "Hi everyone! Does anyone know where I can find the best prices for the BEST wedding photographer in the metropolitan area who really cares about their customers?"

Yelper #2 "WELL, I just happened to get married last week and used XYZ and my oh, my their prices were stellar, their service on time and perfect and they even threw in a free mani and pedi for my pooch Jacomo! Just call X at 786 555 1212, or go to their website www.(blank).com and tell them I sent you and get a $50 discount!"

Yelper #3 "Hey guys did anyone notice this is a Tag Team Thread or TripleT?"

The Thread

Used to describe emails back and forth between friends/coworkers while at work.

While I was at lunch the guys sent 30 messages to The Thread, now its going to take me 20 minutes to catch up on my emails....
