Latish 2004 I think, a 'Top 100 or 200' of literally anything, with an amazingly diverse range of nominations. I remember I nominated 'Minder', Warne's Gatting ball, 'Clancy of the Overflow', Dark & Stormy, and various other things.
Can't find it on Google or Search By Month. Anybody know the thread I mean? Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks folks.

for posterity:
Contrary to the Katherine Heigl-type neurotic, beautiful, and responsible female lead, Thirby plays the indie-standard ideal female, what I like to call the "Quirky Aggressive". She's pretty without makeup, wears Converse, and says quirky and aggressive things.
SIGNS YOU ARE A QUIRKY AGGRESSIVE FEMALE:
#1.) You do drugs or you like talking about how you do drugs.
#2.) You use unique, half-witty, half-annoying sayings like "Dudesies!", "For YAYs" and make jokes about "Rim Jobs" because you are so cool with your sexuality.
#3.) On dates, rather than awkwardness, you manifest your wants/needs/insecurities through aggressive lines like "So when are you going to kiss/fuck/lick my C???"
(Advice: Quirky Aggressives are only beloved in indie films. Please do not try to be one in real life. Do not make rim job and poop jokes on dates. For the first few months your dude will be all like, "OMG, you're so cool and funny! You're not like other girls!" because you said something about giving "Nietzche a BlowJ" or some Quirky Aggressive-esque bullshit, but then after about six months the charm wears off and you find yourself being hushed in public places or cringed at just for telling your old, beloved rim job joke! You are being silenced, Quirky Aggressive. But Quirky Aggressives won't be silenced so they keep going, because, like, they're quirky and aggressive, and shutting up for a dude is so antithetical to their personality.
