Any threads out there lurking in the archives that you've always wanted to get to know better?

I'm interested!

I like the look of this one. It's shallow, but it likes loads of cool bands.

The Conversation has been going very retro-nostalgic recently. I'm not sure it's totally healthy to live in the past like this...

I don't know if there's many other places for us to look at this point. Probably better off remembering what was good, rather than complaining about what we think isn't.

I think this might be one of my all-time favourite barbethreads.

Or stories.

The Gleusheusheusheush thread, of course.

Whilst that's absolutely true, I fear that Barbelith is going to turn into the first virtual old folk's home at this rate. With all this harping back to our glory days, mass dementia and incontinence may be only just around the corner...

mass dementia and incontinence

I thought those were the glory days...

So far the nostalgia of which you speak has been pretty limited. I bumped a couple of old threads, basically. That's not Barbelith as a whole, that's me. There's no grand pattern, just me bumping a couple of older threads, and now Proinsias joking about my necromancy.

Honestly, calling it 'The Conversation' seems a bit grand.

If it really worries you, couldn't you create the threads you'd rather see? The old ones are only at the top because people are posting to them, including you.
