How about a Hijack-foolproof thread?

Hi guys and gals,

Would it be possible for us to continue a thread (say, like this one), which I have started and let it carry on unhijacked? Would it be remotely possible for us tossers to go through an entire thread, stick to the subject on hand and not cause a single hijack along the way?

This is a challenge!! Go for it!!

You rigged this thing, baldy. How can you hijack a thread that has no subject?

But, hey, we have enough creative people here. Let's make this a challange. How do you hijack a thread that was about nothing to start with - (sounds like a Seinfeld episode ).

Yeah, here in Melbourne we've got a Chinese restaurant called King of Kings - the decor's 70's-style dingy, but the dumplings are great. Funny the names they come up with - something must be lost in translation.

One floor up from Sasha's office there's a Chinese restaurant called "The Silky Emperor". It always sounded like a Tang Dynasty pimp to me.

What, if I may ask, is the definition of "eating" in this context?

James, do you ever get to Hong Kong? And, if so, what's your favorite restaurant there - Chinese and otherwise?

Nah, oddly enough, Hong Kong is one place I've never gotten around to visiting. Maybe one of these days, when I'm in the mood and financial state to pickup a Black GMT!
