Longest Thread Ever - Now with SUPERFUN LOUNGE GAME

Have ever wanted to build a kite? Well, here is a simple kite you can make your self!
A kite consists of these basic parts:
# The Spine. The up-and-down, or vertical stick that you build your kite around.
# The Spar. The support stick(s), that are placed crossways or at a slant over the

spine. Sometimes they are curved or bowed.
# The Frame. The joined spine and spars, usually with a string connecting their ends,

that form the shape of the kite and make a support for the cover.
# The Cover. The paper, plastic, or cloth, that cover the frame to make a kite.
# The Bridle. One or more strings attached to the spine or spars, which help control

the kite in the air.
# The Flying Line. The string running from the kites’ bridle, where you hold to fly the

kite.
# The Tail. A long strip of paper or plastic of ribbon that helps to balance the kite

in flight. Not all kites need tails.
# The Reel. The object you use to wind your flying line, to keep it form getting

tangled or flying away.
DIAMOND KITE
Materials:
# butcher cord or thin garden twine
# scotch tape or glue
# 1 sheet of strong paper (102cm x 102cm)
# 2 strong, straight wooden sticks of bamboo or wooden doweling 90cm and 102cm
# markers, paint or crayons to decorate you kite.

1. Make a cross with the two sticks, with the shorter stick placed horizontally across

the longer stick. Make sure that both sides of the cross piece is equal in width.

2. Tie the two sticks together with the string in such a way as to make sure that they

are at right angles to each other. A good way to ensure that the joint is strong to put

a dab of glue to stick it in place.

3. Cut a notch at each end of both sticks. Make it deep enough for the type of string

you are using to fit in to. Cut a piece of string long enough to stretch all around the

kite frame. Make a loop in the top notch and fasten it by wrapping the string around

the stick. Stretch the string through the notch at one end of the cross-piece, and make

another loop at the bottom. Stretch the string through the notch at one end of the loop

at the bottom. Stretch the string through the notch at the other end of the cross-

piece. Finish by wrapping the string a few times around the top of the stick and

cutting off what you don't need. This string frame must be taut, but not so tight as to

warp the sticks.

4. Lay the sail material flat and place the stick frame face down on top. Cut around

it, leaving about 2-3cm for a margin. Fold these edges over the string frame and tape

or glue it down so that the material is tight.

5. Cut a piece of string about 122 cm long. and tie one end to the loop at the other

end of the string to the loop at the bottom. Tie another small loop in the string just

above the intersection of the two cross pieces. This will be the kite's bridle, the

string to which the flying line is attached.

6. Make a tail by tying a small ribbon roughly every 10cm along the length of string.

Attach the tail to the loop at the bottom of the kite.

7. Decorate!
Tips:
# A properly located pivot point is generally located slightly ahead of the centre of

gravity.
# Cut away from you!
# Spray can glue is really good for patching up paper kites.
# Stability is improved by the use of an effective bow and a flexible tail.
# Hold your kite up by the string when you are finished to see if it is balanced. You

can balance it by putting more paper on one side.
# Kites are different each time you make one, so slight adjustments might need to be

made for each kite.

There once was a thread called "jekblads one word per post thread" or something to that effect, which was in essence the proposed "superfun game".

This was during an epoch in the laste Generalocene era, wherein a word along the lines of "j*zz" was extremely popular. The one missing character is no longer decipherable in the archaelogical record, it may be that "jazz" was intended (the site in question being a musical discussion forum) but this is not substantiated by the context.

At any rate, the pattern "j*zz" appeared repeatedly in that single word post thread, to its eventual collapse. Some theorists hypothesize that it was this "single word post" thread that lead to the eventual total collapse of the Generalocene civilization.

On March 5, 2010 A Wienermobile was damaged after a car crashed it to its side and took off the bumper. There was minor injury to a 7 year old kid standing up in the weinermobile.[citation needed]

As a person who was born in Wisconsin, I am delighted that it appears to be the home base of the Weinermobile! I am also interested to finally know whats actually in dem weiners - 7 year old kids, apparently. Yummy indeed.

Then let's prove them right and drive the Lounge era to inevitable cataclysm. It's about time. Are you with me?
Added rule: no words ending on "-zz".
Again, I'll start:
