Song Parodies -> "(Kill) The Longest Thread"
Original Song Title:
"The Longest Time"
(MP3)Original Performer:
Billy Joel
Parody Song Title:
"(Kill) The Longest Thread"
Parody Written by:
The Anti-L.T.E. Gang
The Lyrics
This parody is about a thread on the messagboard known as "Longest Thread Ever", which to me sounds like a dumb name for a discussion topic. Also, I don't know why it had to get started in the first place; it makes hardly any sense to me.
Oh...oh,oh,oh
Kill the Longest Thread.
Oh, oh, oh,
Kill the Longest--
If we said goodbye to L.T.E.,
That would be extremely fine with me.
What else can be done?
I surely don't think it's fun.
I hope that Chucky kills the Longest Thread!
When the so-called "L.T.E." is gone,
I'll know that my happiness goes on.
The thread means nothing!
Please post threads that mean SOMEthing!
That hasn't happened with the Longest Thread.
Whoa, oh, oh, oh...
Kill the Longest Thread!
Whoa, oh, oh,
Please delete it!
I'm just hoping someday it gets canned.
Its replies are getting out of hand,
With too much nonsense
Including pointless comments;
That's why I don't support the Longest Thread!
Maybe this won't last very long.
"Longest Thread Ever"--that name sounds so wrong.
There's no useful point in that thread.
When it's fin'lly dead,
That is just what I'll hope for.
Who knows how much further it goes on?
I sure won't be sorry when it's gone.
Some folks may love it,
But I just want no part of it.
Why do we need a so-called "Longest Thread"?
I don't see why it had to start.
One thing is for sure: I'll never take part.
Every time it's bumped, it makes less sense.
I might seem rather tense,
But it's more than I hoped for.
I don't care what consequence it brings.
I'm just bothered by unpleasant things.
If it's deleted,
Then I won't have to read it.
I intend to stay out of the Longest Thread.
Whoa, oh, oh, oh...
Kill the "Longest Thread"!
Whoa, oh, oh,
No more "Longest Thread"!
Whoa, oh, oh,
Kill the "Longest Thread"!
Whoa, oh, oh,
No more "Longest Thread"!
Whoa, oh, oh,
I wish it was dead!
Whoa oh oh...
Kill the Longest Thread.
Oh, oh, oh,
Kill the Longest--
If we said goodbye to L.T.E.,
That would be extremely fine with me.
What else can be done?
I surely don't think it's fun.
I hope that Chucky kills the Longest Thread!

I'll know that my happiness goes on.

Um...what about just not reading it? It's a thought....
I think the author makes some very excellent points here. LTE really is a meaningless thread, and it has no useful purpose whatsoever. Most people might not see that, but we're entitled to our opinions. Still, the idea of a "Longest Thread" is rather silly, as the author said; even the name doesn't tell what it's about. The author is also right about it "making less sense" each time it's bumped. I'm in favor of it being dumped as well. Anyway, this is a well-written composition, and it's perfectly paced. 5,5,5.
Btw, I used to be a member on the messageboard, but I never posted in that thread. In fact, I made very few posts altogether.

By the way, Kristof... do you ever read the Playful Penguin Place?
Hmmm...this one's not getting as much traffic as I'd anticipated. I expected to see some comments from the thread's proponents, saying things like "LTE is a great thread, why should it go?" and things like that. I guess not very many Amirighters read the Playful Penguin Place, or not very many people who post on the so-called L.T.E. know about Amiright. I have been thinking of writing a couple other anti-L.T.E. parodies...this was my first.
By the way, I'm glad you liked it, Clucky. Thanks for the vote and comment.

Loved it, especially the "nonsense/comments" pairing. That was very clever. 555
Thank you, Guest. I presume you're not a registered member on inthe00s, hence your name?
I think I may have posted in it on occasion, before the mods kicked me out.
I wonder if LTE is sucking up all the bandwidth now. Maybe that's the reason why we can't get to the messageboard? Just a conjecture.
Banished Penguin: I think I know who you are. Thanks for the comment.
Some Person: I don't know, but it'll probably take up a lot of KB's in the Archives, that's for sure.
I hope this gets noticed by more people; I'm interested to hear from both the supporters and the opponents of LTE.

Boy, the word gets around. I just happened to read this: www.inthe00s.com/index.php/topic,23475.0.html
...and it seems like maybe L.T.E. might die after all.
...and it seems like maybe L.T.E. might die after all.
I read that thread, and it looks like LTE might not be going away. But if it's locked up, would that be another form of "killing" it?
Hey, I enjoyed this one! The pacing is excellent. Great choice of original song, too. LTE really is a dumb thread; I have come across it and seen all the nonsense posted on it. But yeah, I'm a tad surprised that LTE's supporters haven't come by and expressed their points of view.
Mrs M C Hammer, thank you for your vote and comment. Yeah, I really hope that the supporters of LTE see this at some point, regardless of what they have to say.
Clucky: if it's locked up, then it won't get any more traffic; that's for sure. But it doesn't look like it'll be locked up...however, I just happened to see some more inane replies on it not too long ago. Something has to be done.

Hey, who voted ones on my parody? Was it someone who supports L.T.E.? If so, please tell us who you are; we would love to hear from you. I'm open to constructive criticism.
I haven't read because to be honest I don't vote on songs that I haven't read, and haven't had time, although I'll go through it later and give my opinion. When someone says something about ones I tend to chime in though, just because of dealing with annonymous ones a lot myself. . .generally speaking, they rarely leave any information and the crisiticism when it's 111 is almost always they don't appreciate the topic, I wouldn't look into it because it rarely is because your parody deserved 111, not that I know on this one yet, but I'll give my vote probably sometime late tonight or tomorrow-not feeling well myself, and wanted to check latest comments.
Hi, Mr. Dave. Thanks for taking the time to write a comment. If you ever read the Playful Penguin Place section on the messageboard, then you will know exactly which thread I am referring to. I'm guessing the Ones voter was either 1) an L.T.E. supporter who doesn't wanna tell us who s/he is or 2) just a random troll.
This parody is a masterpiece. Longest Thread Ever is not.
Thank you, Who Cares What My Name Is (clever name). I agree with your comment entirely. One other beef I have, I hate it when they use that thread to discuss things we already have specific threads for. I couldn't incorporate that part in here, but if I decide to do a follow-up parody, maybe I'll see if I can work it in.
Well, if you really want Chuck to take down LTE, you could privately ask him, by means of email or something, and explain why. I won't say I'm for or against LTE, but I do think your parody is well constructed overall.
actually...my above posting should say, "I won't say whether I'm for or against LTE"...I must have been in a hurry typing yesterday.
When the so-called "L.T.E." is gone,
I'll know that my happiness goes on.
You're unhappy just because of this thread? Psht, you need to get a life, dude.
And also, there is a point to the longest thread. To get it longer than any other. It's like a penguin board game, yanno? Either way, you don't have to like it... But why do you care whether it's there or not? Out of curiosity...
DKTOS
The idea behind the thread was partly to try and create the longest thread ever (by the original poster at least) and also to stop many other threads wandering off into pointless tangents.
I seen the link to this parody in the comments on my Bump Me parody(I don't mind one way or the other). I'm pretty neutral about LTE, but your parody is well paced and you express your opinion well, 5s.
Ah yes...now I see comments from a few Playful Penguin Place regulars! Sorry for my delay in responding.
Meat! & Karen: This parody was co-written by a certain member who dislikes L-T-E for a number of reasons. First of all, this member (whose name I will not mention) has stated that he doesn't like L-T-E because it was started by a deleted user, and he doesn't feel that a "destined-to-be-popular" thread in a members only forum should be started by someone with a deleted account.
Doms: I kinda understand where you're coming from, with regards to "creating the longest thread possible", but things like that take time; Rome wasn't built in a day. This brings me to another point: this member also feels that in the thread's proponents' defense, LTE should have been started long before February 2005, so that the name might make a little more pragmatic sense. And I'm sorry if you don't like my second verse; I was just trying to pace those lines with the corresponding lines of the OS. Gave me a low score too? Fine, be that way. I'm not going to apologize for my personal thoughts.
Karen: I'm suprised you don't know this song; it was one of Billy's biggest hits. It was a track from his album 'An Innocent Man', and it did pretty well on the charts. I'm sure you can find it on Youtube; they have lots of popular songs from over the years.
Step-chan: thank you for your kind feedback. I thought maybe you might've supported it, but I'm glad you had some kind words to say.

Okay, I think that the admins need to pull the plug on the thread pretty soon; it seems to be getting outta hand again, just like it was in mid-2006 when I wrote this parody.
Hey! I think this parody rocks!! 555!
Thanks, Mr. Pants. By the way, the thread has recently been moved to a new section of the MB, so it won't be clogging up the Playful Penguin Place. Still, I'll do my best to avoid the thread.
You saying "This parody was co-written by a certain member who dislikes the LTE ..." tells me who, in part, was involved. Still say those are bonkers reasons not to like a thread.
If you don't like it don't read it. No one is ever forcing you to.
Well the presence of it is what bothers this member. I know this from reading his posts. "Who in part was involved" will remain a closely guarded secret.
All right, who just left me more 1's? I bet it was some stupid troll; I hope the Ones Guy is not back. I know that my pacing is spot-on; it is completely inexcusable to vote 1 for pacing in such a situation.
You tell 'em, author! The pacing is indeed spot-on in this one. FTR, the most recent 555 vote is from me.
It seems like the usual crowd is trying to keep it alive...but I think they're going WAY too far with it, posting rather bitter messages and such. The moderators need to see them.
By the way, another parody or two is in the works.

Love it.
Even LTE can be seen in the word delete.
That's true, and the acronym can also be seen in the word later!
I think the author has presented a good message with this parody. After all, the idea of a messageboard is to have conversation within topics and the rightly the topic remains within that thread. So in a proper discussion (on any subject), or at a debate, deviation is not allowed, because it would undoubtedly make things confusing.
I would like to see at least one or two additional parodies on this subject matter; this one is quite well written and paced.

Thanks, I knew you'd like it.
Double-You Tee Eff? A few more 1's votes were spotted on this parody again. Why? To those people: if you don't agree with the content, that's fine, but to vote 1's in all categories, including the pacing, is not very nice. I know this parody is well paced... and if you guys don't like it, then tough beans...but be sure to respect the pacing before hitting it with more 1s. I'm gonna report this to Chucky.
About the parody: Pacing good, not terribly funny.
About the thread:
-"First of all, this member (whose name I will not mention) has stated that he doesn't like L-T-E because it was started by a deleted user, and he doesn't feel that a "destined-to-be-popular" thread in a members only forum should be started by someone with a deleted account."
Then explain 'The Person Above Me Thread' to me. The contributing member posts there so his argument isn't very valid.
-"LTE really is a meaningless thread, and it has no useful purpose whatsoever."
Same as 'I Like to Move it in M C Hammer's Pants' and half the threads in WoW and PPP go off-topic anyway. Get over it.
Don't like it, don't read it! 'nuff said.
Shut up. Person above me thread was also started by a user who was later banned, but that thread has a useful purpose, esp in the name. The member who helped write this parody feels that an anything-goes type of thread should have a more meaningful name to it, that's what 'Miscellaneous' is about. And with regards to Mc hammer's pants, that one was originally started to poke fun at the threads that got regularly viewed by guests, such as Nib Oswald and Rubixgirl's Profile. Full underscore house underscore fan is the dumbest-looking deleted moniker ever.
And said member (and all other anti-L-T-E-ists) will NOT get over it, because they find the presence of it annoying. Just ignoring it will NOT make it go away. However, others have pointed out that its proponents have been using it as a standard for copying/ripping off ideas from previously-established threads, and the amount of inane crap that has been posted in it should be construed as grounds for eventual deletion of it. As I recall that was what eventually led to Bump Me getting destroyed.
so mister ElohEl (or whatever the hell you are), just back off.

By the way, I gave you all 5s because you and Nally are amusing.
To "That person." (whoever the (blank) you are): I should have you know that this member (whose id I'm still keeping a secret for confidential reasons) does not obssess over the existence of it. He has been quiet about it in recent months, and so has everyone else who's against the thread.
And I'll have you know something else: the person who you identified by name, does NOT capitalize his username.
Oh, and before I forget, thank you for your vote.
Dr Music: Thank you very much. :)

5's all around. I'm a proponent of LTE, but the parody is funny. Good job!
I know you are. Thanks for stopping by on this site!
Link The Songs will ALWAYS be the longest thread EVA!!!!!!!! MUWAHAHAHA
You got that right, JPT!
Well, it appears that the thread was merged with an older, smaller thread; also, the new starter is also deleted, but at least it was someone who later re-registered and is still a member today. It wasn't done away with, like you'd originally hoped...but does that solve your problem anyway, Author?
Yes, I actually noticed that earlier. It does seem to solve the problem, but I still have certain issues. Now, I don't really care if it gets killed off or not; I just do not wish to partake in it, that's all.
I am not an InThe00s member, but I have been to the site a few times, and the "Longest Thread Ever" seemed to be an utterly useless thread in which many of the comments appeared to be spam. Although it seems that LTE was merged, it has not yet gone away. If anyone really, as in intensely, dislikes it, they should contact ChuckyG, but keep in mind that he is a very busy man. 5s.
Hello Andria, thank you for your vote and comment; I appreciate your feedback. Yeah, it wasn't taken down, like I'd originally hoped 3 years ago, but that's ok with me right now. However, if its clique starts to continually overrun the board with it (like they seem to be doing lately) and gets too outta hand, then I may decide to have a word with the admins about it.
Also, I thought that you were briefly a member of the board not too long ago, AND you'd made a few postings in L-T-E. But you're right, it does seem like it's filled with a lot of nonsensical stuff (a few posts of which do appear to be spam-like).
Once again, thank you very much for your kind comment; that really means a lot to me.

Once again, thank you very much for your kind comment; that really means a lot to me.
No, Anti-LTE, that wasn't me. I have seen another person named Andria on other ChuckyG websites, mostly InThe80s.com, and that was most likely her. I am a contributor to AmIRight and AmIWrong mostly, but I come onto the "decade" sites (InThe70s, InThe80s, and InThe90s) from time to time for the purpose of adding to the food section. I'm glad you liked my comment. : - )
Oh sorry, my bad. I guess when the same name (and spelling of it) is used on the same family of websites, it does get kinda confusing. Have a nice day! :)
Well, how about them apples ;-)
Thank you for your comment!
Oh, and to Andria...I could have sworn that was you; after all, I know there were a couple threads in the 'Am I Right news and web site Discussion' section that were started by an Andria, including the one about Drmusic's "Leno" aliases. Are you sure that wasn't you too?

Anti-LTE Gang, that was me in the D.M. threads, but not anywhere else. I decided to stop while I was ahead after finding out about someone else with the same name as me, because I couldn't come up with another username and because I had gotten some junk e-mail that I assumed to be sent by Inthe00s members. Thanks for asking, by the way.
Oh, okay. Thanks for clearing up matters!
"Link The Songs will ALWAYS be the longest thread EVA!!!!!!!! MUWAHAHAHA" - just passing thru October 07, 2008
WRONG! LTE has surpassed LTS at an alarming rate and I still like Billy Joel; 5s all around! Issue #2 is The Anti-L.T.E. Gang really a gang?
That's because its clique has bombarded it over the last 2 wks with all kinds of pointless crap and overrun the boards with it. Yes, it is a gang, of people who are opposed to the thread. But only one of us can comment at a time. The alias is purely anonymous, just like A Roomfull Of Monkeys. You should check out some of their parodies sometime.
Say, Mr. McLaughlin, are you by any chance a member of Inthe00's?

It could be argued that I'm wasting so much time and energy in keeping LTE alive, but I'm bored and the rest of the board bores me...soooooooooooooooo....
If you are interested in the Longest Thread Ever, please visit http://www.inthe00s.com/index.php?topic=1313.0
That's a valid point Rice Cube...but you are posting in LTE because you think it's fun. You aren't wasting your time being angry and vengeful. There is a difference, IMO. To the Anti-LTE-Gang members - I would really love to have a chance to discuss this with you out in the open. Maybe if you posted in the LTE, you could see how fun it really is. Peace is so much better than war. Would you be willing to talk to me? I really want to know who you are. Maybe you could just send me a PM? Let's all try and be friends. I'm willing to try if you are...
Maybe *I* should write a parody :-P But Watt is busy.
Some people feel that it is too much of a standard for copying/ripping off other threads and takes away from them, and hence makes the board as a whole less appealing.
Perhaps I should reiterate a portion of Joey Stove's comment from April 28th of last year, to go with Some Person.
The idea of a messageboard is to have conversation within topics, and rightly the topic remains within that thread. So in a proper discussion (on any subject), or at a debate, deviation is not allowed, because it would make things confusing.

Perhaps I should reiterate the first comment left on here.
If you don't like it, DON'T. READ. IT.
To "Me again": I am SO glad you're not a mod, because then the 00ze would be a sterile and worthless place. If you want everything to be all on topic and serious, hit the part of the boards that was especially created for the serious shizz, and quit whining.
"Say, Mr. McLaughlin, are you by any chance a member of Inthe00's?"
You may be right. I may be crazy.
Say, isn't "The Longest Time" an 80s song? Why is it under 90s?
I don't think anyone intends to copy or rip anything off. You are honestly reading way too much into things Some Person. I am truly baffled by your feelings. I had no idea that there were people that felt this way. I really wish you would say who you really are - you're obviously a regular member of the boards. What's with the secrecy?
It is easier to hide behind a shroud of internet anonymity. Oh well, LTE just got another 1000 posts over the past week :-D
We would be perfectly fine with discussing matters privately, via PM's as you suggested.
"We would be perfectly fine with discussing matters privately, via PM's as you suggested."
Why should we? You're the doucheknuckles who got your panties in a wad and wrote the parody, then posted it where EVERYONE could see it, and now you want it all to be private? Shyeah right!
one question, "anti-LTE gang," and you can answer this publicly: why do you care? why can't you just ignore the thread if you don't like it? please explain why you think it's your business, and why you're actively engaged in trying to sabotage the thread when it has to be obvious to you that there are other people who get something out of it. what is your investment in this? please answer this question.
lol, an 00ze spill. The SS Valdez-nuts has run aground.
Technically good writing and rhyming.... I can't figure out for the life of me why something posted nearly three years ago is still getting this kind of attention.

This is clearly an attack parody, and as such, should be deleted and skewered.
To the author, some stuff I posted the Bump Me thread was another reason why it was deleted.
"We would be perfectly fine with discussing matters privately, via PM's as you suggested."
Well, since we don't know who you are it's hard for us to PM you. You know who we are so it's up to you to start the ball rolling.
You can PM either Ash or myself about any 'issues' you have with thread, or how it 'rips off' other threads.
Right. But you have to do it soon, because karen and I are going to Philadelphia this weekend.
or me... you can PM me....
snoz is bored
snoz finally read all the comments
snoz says to ash....good comments on march 6.
snoz says to jess....you amuse me when you get annoyed.
snoz says to the anti-lte gang and other alias used ... some people have a very specific cadence when they type and which makes it difficult for them to hide behind the alias.
snoz read that someone who is opposed to LTE because it was started by a banned member or whatever - well snoz noticed that a certain anti lte-er recently posted in a thread that was started by Donnie Darko...
snoz thinks starting a post with the phrase "Shut up" is both rude and juvenile.... so snoz is resisting the urge to say...NO! You shut up!" oops.
for the record... snoz threw an oscar party in LTE....people came.....we had fun. you were all invited.
oh yeah... snoz didn't read the parody because snoz hates parodies... but I'm sure the timing was as good as Midas says it was...snoz trust midas because he was neutral
Snoz should trust Midas because he's a DJ and knows music :-)
Rice speaks wisdom.
snoz forgot to say something.... people aren't posting in LTE instead of other threads... what happens several of the regular PPP members post in similar threads. sometimes conversations cross because good natured ribbing takes place or one person makes a comment that reminds the other of something and human nature being what it is the conversation follows its natural course. I said it before and I'll say it again... when two people get together to talk in person -some of you may have experienced this phenomenon before- then they have an exchange of dialogue. They never talk about only one thing and nothing else...they talk about multiple things simultaneously...unless they are automatons then- yes there is no conversational flow.... only words.... snoz is done....for now.
I also was very impartial, and noted that I gave this parody 5's for pacing, but that comment was deleted. Also, very good points Snoz. I agree with you. On everything.
Thanks Ash I guess no one wants to dialogue with me
I'll dialogue!
Look guys, this is a parody comment thread intended solely for feedback on the parody, NOT a place to have a conversation. This parody is being watched for conversational comments, which have been reported on numerous parody comment threads in the past, and we ask that you please stop.
^ Who are you? I know who I am...
Parody pacing and funniness! 5's That being said, I wrote a parody about Red Ant, and was told immediately that it was an attack parody and should be removed. Even though this parody is years old now, it is still an attack and likewise should be removed. LTE in itself is a thread about nothingness, where people can go and post about anything they want, without worrying about going off topic or being criticized for not following the rules. I recently read the ENTIRE thread, and as a moderator I find nothing within it that necessitates it's locking or deletion. If you choose not to participate in it, that is your choice. But it doesn't mean that your choice dictates what should be done with the thread. It isn't hurting anyone. Live and let live.
No wonder Tam hasn't talked to me in a week: it probably took her that long to speed-read the LTE. =)
I was going to defer this parody and its comments to Tam since it's not really an amiright issue. That being said (or typed), I'm not removing any comments from this thread here.
BTW, to "Website Editor": yes, you are one, but you also know that I am the only one here who uses that name, and rarely at that. To be frank, if you stop making decade complaints, I might take your reports more seriously.
Back on the topic of paroody, it's a shame you don't write more or submit under your commonly known name. You've got a technically great parody here, and, believe me, if I thought it sucked I would tell you so.
Like Tam wrote, let this topic go.
Hey, my security code is "LTE":
...just kidding. =)
