This still can be a thread that discusses some senseless thread without a title. This one has a title, therefore we can derail it. My guess.

I will derail this thread with no title by giving it a title.

Henceforth, this thread shall be The Thread with a Title.

Derailed.

Nice try, but this thread has a title.

Derailing would require this thread to have a topic. It hasn't one and therefore derailing is impossible.

But if we give the thread a topic, it would derail the thread from having 'no topic'.

Lo and behold! The thread has already been derailed by a discussion on this very topic.
In vino veritas.

I guess this can be a thread about derailment?

This thread should be about why I can't get the Network Simulator (ns-2) to compile on my linux-box running Fedora Core 3....

Or would that be too boring ?

Hmmm... Dammit!

On the other hand, if there's no topic, there's nothing on the rails that would be subject not to be derailed. But you say, that we can't derail the thread, therefore there must be someting on the rails. And that - whatever that is - can be derailed by us.

What's the highest anyone is ranked on Halo2 on Xbox live?
I just got to 21 on team slayer.
17 on big team battle.
A bit lower on the others, but working on it.

Angry Nugget, you were pretty good. How come u haven't played since they reset the scores? Is Macanator from this forum?

I am now derailing this thread from it's original topiclessness to a topic about train cars.
Train cars may be 3/4" wide. And have pretty ladies on em. Derailed?

How about a picture over 480 pixels wide? would that derail it?

No?

Did you just use the words 'sex', 'porn', and 'Meat Loaf' in the same sentence?

You sick pervert! And at your age - you should be ashamed of yourself!

the thread does have a topic and therefore and your first post cemented what this thread is about.
