The stupidest posts/threads on this forum

At request by reynod.

Because I can't find a true "general" section, I'm sticking it here. Post links to the most pathetic threads you can find just so we can all have a laugh (and maybe even a cry) at the stupidity of humanity.

I'll start: http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/102815-13-want

This one made me laugh.

Sorry ... but the idea is totally absurd.

This is a tech forum ...

I am sure I have contributed some of the stupidness on here, but I really, really get tickled when someone pops in an answer to a 3 year old thread.

Does any one have the link to that thread where the OP *said* he was running a E6xxx (IIRC) on a 750a chipset. It was on an April 1st and had like 15 pages.

I think most of these threads can be used in a PSA for why you should not eat paint chips or smoke crack.

I asked after his rig but got no reply, dunno why. Badge seems to have taken a shine to him though.

LMAO here!

Another: http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/263827-30-help

though ironically i actually know how to fix this one (it involves removing the RAM cover, wiring two wires from an RS232 port on a separate PC to the BIOS Flash memeory chip and running some DOS utility the name of which escapes me on that PC to read the password stright out of the flash ram.)

Somehow I don't think this guy would have got it

I have never been here. Nor was I one of the one's who left. In addition, I have never participated in a stupid post or thread in all the time I have never been here.

Everything I said to the guy was out of fear he may reply back asking a power cord question.
