Unfortunately, the link is gone. I tried even cache digging it up, its like, really gone.

"Amy" refers to the name that a group of women shared (they were all named Amy.... Not like they were the borg but all "we are Amy, resistance is futile"). A member of the forum wrote a rather amazing post that flabbergasted me, and pretty much anyone else in the blast radius, as it was more or less "dear penthouse, I never thought it could happen to me but " and ended with "now I might have a daughter". The train wreck of a thread that ensued was amazing, to say the least, and those of us that actually got to experience the Amy thread are forever changed for experience. I'm not sure if its.better or worse.... But definitely changed.

In reply to wbjones:

One of our friends told the tale of a love tetrahedron that he may or may not have been entangled in a hundred years ago. All of the main characters, maybe even including himself, were named Amy. It was unpossible to keep everyone straight, even with the flow charts and PowerPoint presentations.

Attempts at describing the Amy thread in a tasteful and appropriate manner that avoids the ban hammer are even more amusing than the original thread was.

It's like an excercise in creative writing.

Amy was the shortest lived thread to be immortalized instantly.

It's a thread that will live in infamy!

From the moment of that threads birth, to the rest of my time on this earth, I will forever question any Amy that I meet in my mind. "Are you one of them?" I will think. Even lifelong relationships are being questioned. Oh, we've changed MNDSM. You're GD right we've changed.

LMAO I didn't know the thread was deleted. I let the wife read it after I was done with it. She was thoroughly amused.

Well two different ones actually.

Good luck on the date. Amy's tend to like Italian food according to mysample size.

Hmmm. I've flipped through my mental file cabinet and while I've known a few Amys, I've never 'dated' one. I may have to rectify that...

I'm terrible with names. Is this the thread where the daughter was "off-limits" but got into the game anyway, causing a rift between our hero and the two women with whom he was dallying?

It disappeared due my purchase of the movie rights. "Amy-nado" is the working title. We're casting Vin Diesel as the hero and going with a Mad Max apocalyptic Drifter (mad drifting skillz, yo) travels back in time to.....

Well, you'll see the trailers.

Vin Diesel is the wrong choice. See if you can get Edd China.

I don't know who that is, and based on the context of the story, I hesitate to Google who it might be.
