[ "thread" ]
1: A boy/girl who is to afraid to talk to the opposite sex about out of school activities. The thread group is a confidence booster for those who don't talk to the opposite sex and provides a sense of camaraderie/fraternity among other threads. A term associated with threads is thread shock. Thread shock is defined as the condition in which a person is too stunned to talk to the opposite gender that he/she doesn't reply. The hierarchy of threads is as follows from top to bottom: Thread Founder, Thread God, Thread Prophet, Thread Legacy (in the case that you are related to a former thread member), and Thread Star. The secret handshake of the Thread is fist-pounding yourself or high-fiving yourself after someone else high-fives or fist-pounds you, which serves as a symbol for the elevated sense of confidence one receives when among other threads.
* e.g., ... Thread Shock:
Kendall: Hey Bob! What's up?
Bob: *Thinks* Is she talking to me? Why are my hands sweating so much? Should I reply? Nah, I can betray the Thread, I'm better off not replying.
Thread Life:
Friend: Hey Bob, are you going to Kendall's party tonight?
Bob: Nah man, I'm thread. Talking to girls outside of school would mean betraying the thread

1: I swear im not aware of my meanness!
* e.g., ... I just want a loyal partner who will have me change my undies when we fight, when we make out, when we talk about life, you know. That to me puts EveryThing in perspective and reminds me of how we're here, unasked, uninvited, and how absurd, bizarre life actually is (like, look at the shit we have to fight for, look at what we're still having to deal with, the rat racing, money chasing, fame embracing). If you have me change my undies (lose control), you'll make me smile and that smile i can preserve and let it thread its way into any circumstance in "life".

* e.g., ... During the 2012 London Olympics, Team GB would often remind the public of its commitment to the "spirit of yarndling", principally in its emphasis on fair play, equality for all, and competitive threading.
