Aye. Remove it if it hasn't been done already.

I was thinking that Nuclear's recent drunk thread should be added in, but it's too recent and doesn't do anything for HLP culture (except maybe point out that 1) we tend to make fun of drunkards; and 2) Hades is unpleasant).

I've moved it back.  If thesizzler complains, he can post his justification in this thread and I'll reconsider it.

Personally I'd think that one drunk classic is enough.

Re: Petition to remove unfunny prank from The Classics
It was funny after the fact.

And I still think the "OT- Religion" thread should be added. Like it or not, it was the defining thread of early HLP. Pretty much everyone who mattered back then got involved in it.

NOTATION HOW THREAD WAS A RIPOFF[/quote]
Spoon - I stand in awe by your flawless fredding. Truely, never before have I witnessed such magnificant display of beamz.
Axem -  I don't know what I'll do with my life now. Maybe I'll become a Nun, or take up Macrame. But where ever I go... I will remember you!
Axem - Sorry to post again when I said I was leaving for good, but something was nagging me. I don't want to say it in a way that shames the campaign but I think we can all agree it is actually.. incomplete. It is missing... Voice Acting.
Quanto - I for one would love to lend my beautiful singing voice into this wholesome project.
Nuclear1 - I want a duet.
AndrewofDoom - Make it a trio!
