What are some good examples of thread backfires?

A backfire in a thread about backfires...what are the chances?

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
Tons of threads just get ruined by random gaffers trying to engineer "thread backfires" and you can't even have a decent discussion about the topic because people just spend a ton of time and posts trying to snipe the OP.

I don't know if it quite qualifies as back fire.. But early this year I started a thread asking about my Xbox disc drive. See, I was watching Interstellar and the drive stopped working. It started clicking, and making strange sounds. Everyone kept making jokes that I didn't understand until I finally finished the movie.

Trying to watch Interstellar.

douchegaf was in full effect in that topic.
