Well what to say, of course it would be posted in the Pit. How many pathic times has this guy begged to be flamed to no avail. Thats been 995 of his posts. I’m shocked and amazed. He was allowed to reproduce? ---

Well, I’m not there yet, but I do see it off in the distance, the **1000th** signpost. Hey, I had my Mark of the Beast post and no one noticed. Sniff sniff. Congrats, **Shodan**. Save some room at the table when I get there, okay? ---

Isn’t **Shodan** ’s usage of the word “flame” in the thread title just a clever way to get his self-congratulatory post party into the Pit, rather than MPSIMS where it really belongs? Is that a sign of his veteran abilities, or just of his irascible character? ---

I think it’s more a sign that even at a thousand posts he has learned how to make the truly young ones think _way_ too hard;) [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/flame-me-will-you-i-laugh/134708.md?page=1) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/flame-me-will-you-i-laugh/134708.md?page=3)
