I keep hearing about how epic it was, yet it is never posted with the other classics.

it was a good one, but i cant remember if it was deleted

Don't see why it would have been, but I can't seem to use my 2 star powers to find it.

it is easly in my top 5 favorites

someone porn blasted it and the whole thing went down. It was a damn good thread

Someone educate me. What was it about?

someone had a mantis shrimp in their aquarium and needed advice on it, or to get rid of it or something and someone else was going to take it.

it turned into a mantis shrimp as the new mascot of A&M thing

and there were various cameos by the pistol shrimp (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eKPrGxB1Kzc) which then led to theories about if they fought who would win, and then i think Sherman was compared to the mantis shrimp and Turge was compared to the pistol shrimp.

and theres a cool picture of a mantis shrimp wearing an A&M thing that pops up every now and then

apparently a mantis shrimp is pretty kick ass. They can pop their claws really powerfully, and kill and break things. Some dude had one that had hidden out in some coral he had bought from a pet store, and was asking if it would kill his other fish..

Some other dude said fish? Hell it can break your TANK if it hits it hard enough...then came some mantis shrimps are badass mofos, and we need it as a mascot, etc...

Funny thread. I hope the dude that porn blasted it got the permaban.

On epic threads like that...why can't staff just delete the pron blast post...instead of the entire thread?

I was in Thailand during that thread's lifespan, so I missed it all too...

best thread in texags history

does staff really delete threads? can they reach back into some archives somewhere and pull it back up (without the bad stuff?), didnt they bring AggieGrant's thread back after "deleting" it


/come on staff, do us a favor if you can

they have certainly brought back deleted threads. After much pissing and moaning, they brought the ceiling cat back from forum_id=33 to the GB again

i want the FAIL thread back...that was was legendary!

Mantis shrimp was classic.

Yeah, they deleted my thread - twice! Not sure what the issue was. Some of the photoshops were great! The said mantis shrimp is doing well by the way, in his own tank! I would post a pic if I had a photosharing account.

I'm surprised with Texags.com being one of the best forums (not just sport fourms) that it doesn't even have a "classics" section.....

It is a total badass by the way. It can dig tunnels through solid rock by pulverizing its way though. You can hear it across the room when it's excavating! When it hits the rock, it turns to little grains of sand and powder. Of course, when it's chowtime, it comes out and eats from a turkey baster like a little baby! It will tap the end of the baster sometimes and I can feel the vibration in my hand. It's only about an inch and a half right now. Crazy!

bet the pistol shrimp would whoop its ass

No f-n WAY!

they should do one of those discovery channel things where they have the two predators face off.


or someone should just match them against each other

/pay-per-view?

Take it forum 69

Mantis shrimp to end the curse.

You can preach 1000 sermons and nobody come to Jesus.

I watched a food show and one of the venues was an Asian seafood market. The gringo star of the show was picking up and showing off various sea creatures. He made his way to a tub full of large mantis shrimp and dipped his hand to grab one. The proprietor suddenly stepped in to stop the food show host and had the WTF look.
