Fuck! I've missed the Post of the Beast!

:mad: :smack: :mad: :smack:
I’ve been looking forward to my 666th post for so long, and now I MISSED IT!
Not that I’ve planned an unprecendeted feature for that remarkable post, but I would’ve found something neat, I’m sure.

:smack: :mad: :smack: :mad:

You poor devil :slight_smile:

664: The neighbor of the beast.


Jesus was in a coma.

I’m sure I’m missing something here.

Yes, you are.

Care to clue me in?

Hell, I passed 2000 sometime in the last couple of days and didn’t notice until about half an hour ago.

Not as cool as 666, maybe, but wasn’t the world supposed to end in 2000? :wink:

No.

Then I’ll settle for one of your marvelous hand-jobs instead.

Haha…nah I am just joking with you hun. But the joke does lose a little bit when you have to explain it. “Mark of the beast” is 666, you get that, and house numbers go by two’s. 664-666. 664 is the neighbor of the beast.

You know it does lose something in the explaining.:slight_smile:

I’m humbled that you chose to reply to my post as your first experience on the board. Welcome.

I’ve been marking binary palindrome post counts so that later I’ll be able to guess post counts off dates.

Yeah, I’m a geek, I know that.

I just passed 1000110001 and I’m heading up on 1001001001.

Well, my reckless posting has gotten the better of me, and I went right past 1001001001 without noticing.

That really sucks, 'cause you could have slid in the Rush angle, too.

What makes the joke is to think of 666 as the “number” of the Beast, rather than the “mark”. This makes it more of a play on words (number vs. neighbor).
