Get serious, this is usenet. Circular threads is what you do here.
Ever read cuq[1]?
The typical thread goes something like
Q: How can I do foo?
A1: With bar.
A2: With baz.
A3: bar doesn't work on PDP10s running Version 6, and baz contains a UUOC.
Do wibble instead.
A4: But wibble will run much too slow. Better do wobble in that case.
A5: Just use Emacs.
A6: I got bored last night, here's my awk solution.
A7: perl is better
A8: I haven't followed this thread, but couldn't you just do bar?
GOTO A3

[1] Hi. My name is Christian. I'm a recovering sysadmin[2]. The last time
I read cuq was ... yesterday.
[2] Actually, I'm not. I never got sucked in that deep.[3][4] Phew!
[3] Please don't tell. I might get booted of this group.
[4] Is it footnote, interpunction or interpunction, footnote?
