spiderman thread
A message board posting technique designed to end or derail threads that its user finds uninteresting or lacking productive discussion.

Occasionally, additional users contribute to the derailing with their own screencaps of Spider-Man. Frequently used on 4chan's various message boards, where the technique originated.
