I think you'll find that most mentions of Threads here in the forum were in the "Sewing and knitting" sub-forum. 
They're not the threads referred to in your link.

Encarta! New age Interweb schnick-schnack Humbug! The only true factual reference for the modern day scholar is the Hardcover 32 Volume edition of the Encyclopædia Britannica, which proudly adorns the shelves of my library and reading room.

Speak for yourself! I had to sacrifice two goats on a hilltop just for the first post.

Only if they've successfully completed (and survived) the "Fire ceremony of moderate moderation", which I haven't. 
I had a dentist appointment on the day.

Makes sense, on that day we received a sacrifice of two wisdom teeth from a dentist near you in our secret subforum.
