The car wreck that is so bad that you abandon all pretense of rubbernecking and just put your car in park, get out and stand there gawking with flagrant, morbid curiosity.

It's Update, not The Update.

As for the question posed, perhaps the best series of the decade. Maybe The Sopranos is better but that's debatable.

It's depraved, but frankly, if it gets Dave from Michigan to stop blabbering about pop, I would fight for its return.

It's irritating that despite my efforts to ignore it, some memes have escaped quarantine there to infect the rest of the Forum.

What do you mean "its return"?  Update is alive and well, but the "pop" thread lives on.

Awful, I don't care about some Oklahoman guy's life, also due to the fact that it spawned the Russ Powers meme, which I despise thoroughly.

Realistically, Dave Leip's forum would eventually fall without it.

True. I have no evidence to support this, but I firmly believe that without the page views generated by Update and related discussion, the forum would not generate enough ad revenue for Leip to continue to host it.

Oh. Well, any excuse to remove that pop thread.

Agreed. Plus its return clearly helped to calm the masses in the wake of opebo's ban and the crisis that followed. What Bushie did for the forum on those dark days can be compared to what James Brown did for Boston after Dr. King's assassination. For that we must always be thankful to him.

I don't read it, though it's probably better than the soft drink thread.

Should be permanently deleted.

Bushie doesn't need this. He need to actually do somehing useful with his life instead of wasting his efforts on this. And his fandom doesn't really need this too.

Wouldn't miss it because it enables self-destructive behavior. And the club that follows it I really don't get. Enjoys others' misfortunes or is THAT bored?

The cancer that is killing this forum.  Bushie should be forced to end it or face a ban.

There is absolutely nothing redeeming about the writings of a guy who advertises every aspect of his pathetic life on this forum purely for the amusement of those pretending to be his friends.  The fact that someone actually left the forum because it was closed the first time tells you how intellectual and sophisticated the "fanbase" is.  If it weren't for the Update, people would only know him for his asinine political and theological views and he would be treated appropriately for them.

If Bushie actually cared about improving his life, he'd put the thing away and do that instead of acting like a cheap prostitute putting on a show for everyone.
