Nominations for the best threads on FR in the "aught" decade.
1.)Rathergate forgery revealed by Buckhead.
2.)Thailand?
3.) Obama wins Nobel and dozens of other meaningless awards(Spoof by various FR authors).
The Nobel Prize day had to be the funniest day I’ve seen since I’ve been here. I think the mods let a couple of hundred vanities through within a few hours.
Can’t believe the naughty oughties are almost gone.
2. 2000 recount
Crowd cheered Metrodome sexcapade (Wild and crazy Iowans at the football game!)

What screenname does Zawahiri use while surfing FR?
I’m bored.

Trust me on these.
What about that thread a few days before 9/11 where someone had posted a dream they had about a tragedy that was eerily similar to what happened?
Hands down, Numero Uno!

Out of respect for those who died, we must include one of the main threads that began the reporting of a plane hitting the first WTC tower.
Oh, you beat me to Unnngh (aka the thread that wouldn’t die).
Definitely one of my favorites.
I must have missed that one. Remember the one where the FReeper was blubbering on and on about how his mean boss was making him fly on business after 9/11? It was pretty pathetic.
Are those the record-holders for posts / views?
FR scooping the media on the space shuttle Columbia disaster, and Pres. Bush at my undisclosed location (Thanksgiving visit to Iraq)
This was the best place to be on 9/11.
Rathergate and Nobel day were classics.

I remember a limerick contest about the Clinton and Lewinsky saga that literally had me crying with laughter.
