Clunkety-clunk still stands the test of time, although Brian Good (aka PetGoat) came close with a couple of his greatest hits:

Quote:
If your co-workers have any questions, intelligent or otherwise, please forward them. That you were unable to intuit the obvious implications of rakeonrake suggests that, if they're anything like you, they won't have any at all.
And:

Quote:
What is proposed is that the giant core structure of the WTC, built to carry 10X the weight of the entire tower above, should have captured the disorganized wreckage of the WTC wreckage that was disintegrated core above it, rather than collapsing under this relatively small amount of wreckage.

Meatball on a fork is a metaphor.
Uncle Fetzer, on the Alan Colmes show:

Quote:
You think those hijackers were just going to let passengers make cell phones, or those.... those.... plane phones? You need a credit card to do that!
Judy Wood:

Quote:
And recently I gave a talk at an engineering conference where I showed some diagrams of the buildings being built and I showed, “If this were a tree and the Keebler elves cut out this big chunk out of the side here, for their little house, where their dwelling is. Would that affect the towers?” And everyone in the room could see, that no, the way the structure is designed, it can’t bring it down.
The Zither guy at Ground Zero:

Quote:
But whether it's LIHOP,
Or whether it's MIHOP,
We need to know the truth,
And make this war stop.
28th Kingdom, a former forum member:

Quote:
At the sake of sounding like a genius...you could hammer an asteroid from outer space straight down on one of the (undamaged) twin towers...and it would not cause a chain reaction of floor failures from top to bottom. If anything, it would drill the vertical columns into the ground like a nail.
Korey Rowe explains how to make a documentary:

Quote:
"We know there are errors in the documentary, and we’ve actually left them in there so that people discredit us and do the research for themselves."
Morgan Reynolds, explaining the "One-Plane" Theory:
Quote:
"Here is more food for thought: the same chameleon plane could have appeared at all three events: 9:03a at WTC 2, 9:32-9:37a at the Pentagon, and 10:06a at Shanksville, PA. In truth, the perps only needed the disappearing plane trick at WTC 2 but it is a promising possibility for Shanksville too. The Pentagon event did not really need an airliner but the single plane theory proposed this month as a parody of the JFK single-bullet theory actually might make sense! The same disappearing act by the same secret plane could have been used at all three locations! We shall see if future work bears any of this out."

Can any of us forget Porky, Jon Gold?
