You think you can catch the thread on the Presidential speech? You think a thread like that comes this close to getting deleted, and sticks his head out? If it comes up for anything it'll be to get rid of me. After that... my guess is you'll never hear from it again.

From the MetaFilter Wiki:

You can view a version of the MetaFilter front page that displays deleted threads - it's the [lofi version]. You can also read the comments in deleted threads using the lofi version.

I'm wondering why that thread had to go, but this one got to stay.

It's not like it was a trainwreck.

Dude, you have a user number in the 11000s and you don't know how to mouseover "X comments" on the front page to find the numbers of threads that have been deleted, and then type them in to see the reason for the deletion?

Come on. You know where deleted threads live by now, surely. So what was the point to this thread?

You know, when I added the first comment in that thread I half considered predicting the imminent death of the FPP.

My bad. I knew it was bound to happen, and yet fed the flames anyway...
