Resurrecting the original “What are you doing right now?” thread.

edited June 2020 in Off Topic
I have been offshore/overseas for the past few months. To my surprise when I finally got on the forum an all time favorite thread was sunk. What a travesty for a 6 year old thread with over a million views and thousands and thousands of comments to be sunk over some nonsense. 
With that said, I am making an attempt to have the original thread edited (stupidity removed) and brought back from Buffaloism. It was easily the best thread on the forum in my eyes. I’m sure a top 3 at least in everyone’s eyes. 
I simply ask this my friends. If you are in support of resurrecting the original thread, please hit the like or agree button and leave a reply in favor of bringing it back to life. 
It can be done my friends. Remember a few years ago when Nola and JIC got banned? A few calls to the right people and they reappeared like the proverbial turd in the punch bowl. 
Again, simply hit the like or agree button and leave a short comment. And before you know it we will be posting what we are doing right now again on the proper thread. 
Thanks in advance for your help/support. 

Edit: And if you disagree, feel more than free to hit the disagree button.

    Glad to support this effort.  Time to really push this hard and see where it lands. Worst that can happen is that this doesn't work which is where we are now.  Go forth and do great things!

    Good luck. Hopefully the Buffalo shows some compassion and we can take this as a learning opportunity and try to keep politics to a minimum...

    Brother Cap it comes as no surprise that you are the first to show support. You have always been one of the most respected and level headed people on the forum. Occasional antics aside, you are definitely one of the good ones. We need more like you brother.

    I am on board with this.  It can also be a learning experience all the way around.  For example, my takeaway presently is the corporate mindset of BGE aligns with those in the camp of "punish all for the actions of a few".  There are better alternatives.

    @SGH you are still within the one hour edit deadline, perhaps incorporate "1-800-SAVE-WAYDRNT" in the title?

    The Buffalo is firm but also fair and sometimes forgiving. Let’s hope that is the case this time 🤞

    The Buffalo has shown no traits of being a reasonable person.  I do hope this gets him back on track

    He unbanned JIC and Nola a few years ago when requested. So there is always hope my friend.

    Scottie told me he’s only done sloppy seconds once in his life.  I didn’t ask what happened after that but I gather there was some DNA testing.

    I went back and read through it. From what I could see there was an argument about a touchy subject. You can probably use your imagination and guess what it was. 
    At any rate, it is a shame that it happened on that particular thread.

    It’s too bad individual posts can’t be removed instead of sinking or nuking a entire thread especially one with so many memories
