For the sake of tradition 2008 awards thread! (1 Viewer)

I'm sorry but I will have to disagree.
The best thread on Thumped this year is "Hello, I'm Kev Bones".

Na, that thread Kev Bones made is good and all, and you'll laugh at it a good lot of times, but the Wanking Off to Bratz Dolls thread will have people laughing for eternity, the first two or three pages of that thread contain some of the greatest writings in internet history.
