One of the tops is surely British English: the sequel - http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/brunel/F19585?thread=100569 Entertainment, longevity, informative with the odd digression into tripe. It's got it all.

I have to nominate Yikes!!! 42,000 posts in a year - and I've read it from the start (twice) - it all makes perfect sense.

Put your glasses on, Fizzy. 
The eds aren't looking for the Longest Conversation - that thread is over here:
F19585?thread=5094519
And yikes isn't the longest conversation, either.

Oh it's interesting, informative, friendly, makes sense, and open to all-comers ..... I'd say that's a classic hootoo thread.
It has everything except the 
at noon moments.

What subject would that be then in Yikes?

The clue is in the title
.... after that we went for microbiology, continence, 007, pheloxisms, lilitis, sleeping sickness, time zones, yorkshire ....... the place is like Cheers - the sitcom - only it'll run for longer.

Where's that thread about glowing cucumbers? Now that was brilliant! 
Pun intended!

Was that thread borne of Vibrating Snails, RF? And wasn't it Glowing Pickles?

Does anyone know the name of the thread where people ranted about customers and workers in the retail industry? I have a rant I want to mention, but for the life of me do not remember the thread's name.

The blu tack thread was in Master B's journal, wasn't it? (not that I was there, but I read it).
The first Ask Mr Dreadful thread was something of an instant classic, although exactly what it was exploring escapes me right now.

You've been rummaging around in Master B's old threads? 
Now wash your hands.
