Captain Haddock, please define a "substantive thread" for us. I would say you're engaging in thread discrimination - very threadist of you. I'm glad you have credibility even with your chosen name, the king of curses! My favorites: Pirates! Toffee-noses! Bashi-Bazouks! Ectoplasm! Vegetarian! Two-timing tartar twisters! Macrocephalic baboon!! Miserable Earthworms!! Bootlegger! and many more.
