    Episode XXXV: Under the underpinnings of Pharyngula, you find…underwear

    It seems the latest topic in the immortal thread is underwear, so here you go, more underwear. The ladies and the gay men may enjoy this video, the rest of us…well, smile and buck up over your temporary objectification.

    Episode XXXIV: You can say that on the internet

    The last open thread had some discussion of what other people don’t want you to say on the internet — George Carlin had a few things to say about that censorious attitude (NSFW; you know what he’s going to say.)

    With special bonus rudeness below the fold!

    Episode XXXIII: The cock-and-bull story continues

    When we last left the never-ending thread, the subject was cooking. Eat this!

    One thing that annoys me in these shows is the completely uncritical acceptance of a culture’s primitive beliefs in sympathetic magic. It’s meat, people. It’s got no powers other than the basic, material ones of providing nutrients.

    Happy Threadiversary!

    The endless thread apparently turns one year old today. What the heck have you people been talking about?

    Anyway, you know the drill. Comments on the old post closed, commenting resumes here. Are you planning to keep it up for another year?

    May your conversations continue to blossom.

    William Shatner has some advice for you thread-stuffin’ Pharynguloids

    We’re going from John Waters to William Shatner — we’ve got style.

    A Date with Pharyngula

    Somehow, listening to John Waters reading the liner notes to an album he’s putting out sounds an awful lot like the never-ending thread. I think he’d feel right at home here, someone invite him over for a date.

    It grows like a fungus

    The infinite thread keeps growing, and its spores populate yet another post.

    The end of that video is a little disturbing. Is that our fate? Once you’ve done here, Pharyngula will collapse into rotting mulch for maggots, and the spores will move on to colonize other blogs?

    While my inner fish protests at being vertical rather than horizontal, the endless thread continues

    Another thread closed, and another springs into life.

    Never-ending thread reset because no one gives enough props to Mrs Emma Peel

    That last open thread has been closed. I am deeply offended. People were jibber-jabberin’ about sidekicks and crime-fighting duos and no one mentioned The Avengers. I will not tolerate such slack and neglect.

    Let’s begin this one with some appreciation for Diana Rigg as Emma Peel, please.

    Open thread again. We’ll be here for all eternity, try the calamari

    I do feel a little embarrassed that the most active comment thread on all of scienceblogs is often the endless open thread on Pharyngula, which is about nothing at all but what you crazy people want to say…and that’s in spite of the fact that I keep closing the old thread and opening a new one. Anyway, here we go again.

    So say something.
