This is the thread that never ends {Warning this thread will never end}

Migrated topic.
Language is also a dynamic creative entity defined by its usage in the given moment but according to rules of tradition in order to sustain shared understanding. Thus we are able to talk about new things and ideas despite using the formal constraints that maintain the structure of meaning within a given language.

Buuuut... at some (theoretical) point we would run out of valid permutations of the phoneme set. This would take an astonishingly long time, however, and given the historical precedent that phonemes and entire words get repurposed for temporo-local pertinence accompanied by, essentially, the death of the preceding meaning we can see that understanding of any given sound set also evolves.

Thus the snake never quite succeeds in devouring its own tail.
 
Once you are aware of this thread, you are in the game.

How do you play they game? The goal is to not threads think of this thread. If you are able to do so you are winning, and the goal is to win for as long as you can. See what kind of record you can set. Some can go weeks, months, or even years without thinking of this thread. Some win for decades, only to remember this thread on their deathbed.

HOWEVER, the moment you think of this thread, you lose. The timer resets and you start over. You can come here and share your feelings of loss if you want, we will understand.

Congratulations, you are now in the game.

This is a pretty long thread. But has godwins law taken effect yet?

The internet law which says when Hitler is invoked a thread ends and whoever invoked Hitler loses? Since this is the never ending thread, it is eternal, and it is not concerned with monkey egos winning or losing. Also, as an eternal thread, it is not concerned with the particulars of history and will not be affected in the slightest by mentioning Hitler.

In short, the eternal transcends human laws.
