Hama, give her a break! I didn’t post when I hit 300 because everyone was going on about too many post parties…but people are having fun & there’s beer & naked twister - how can you stand in the way of progress like that?  
Congrats Hyper, 😛 Hama (you have to do 10 press ups in the middle of the twister pad during a game to make up!)

Uh…do I have to do ten? Can’t I make up for it some other way?

_Hrmmmph_ Four.  
_Hrmmmph_ Five.

Please? I’m getting kinda tired here…I’m not in the best physical shape in the world…

Hamadryad, You know how that goes… Do you ever let a guy in front of you in rush hour traffic? Hell no, but it’s some cute chick, I’ll bet you let them in every time.  
come on… admit it. I used to, until it was pointed out to me.

Congrats on the 300th post. I’ve been around here forever, and barely have twice that many. I guess I don’t have a lot to say.

Now, where is that bed?.. Damn sleep apnea!

I’m a cute chick, you dink.  
I don’t let ANYONE cut in front of me.

_Hrmmmph_ Se…ven…

Oh, all right, stupid inane prematurely-ejaculating OP. Congratulations on making 300 posts. Neener. I got there first. :eek:

_helps Hama up_

You okay? Don’t worry about the post thing - some people like to celebrate and who are we to stop them. Let’s just enjoy the party.

So how have you been? Long time no ‘speak’

um, well, i feel like a jenny-come-lately, but it’s better to come lately than never to come at all, right? (or to come too soon, but thats really not a girl’s problem)

Anyway, congrats Hypergirl on the big 0.3K!

Now, where’s some naked men and good ol’ liquor?

Hey, it looks like y’all are having fun. I have two more offers for massages. Hmmmm…Well, I could get one after the other, or I could take you both at the same time. Choices choices. But for now, I think I’m going to sit back with my sex in the beach and watch the naked twister competition. I’m surprised no one has taken advantage of the jello wrestling. But thanks for coming to my little party. (They like me, they really like me! … It’s not JUST the free beer, is it?)

No, it’s NOT just the free beer.

It’s the free alcohol AND naked twister. 😉

Hi Jess!!

Now me being the life of the party as I have always been in the past, will go and sit against the wall, watching the insanity going on around me.

Congrats on the number of posts. I’ll get to that number in like 10 yrs.

Lauren, when you hit 100, we’ll throw a party for ya, ok? Some people just go at a different pace than others. Seems Jessica did forget about the music aspect. ::Puts some booty music on and starts dancing:: Much better.

PARTY! WO-HO!

Congrats Hypergirl, great party, but it needs a bartender. I nominate myself.

:Hops over bar, begins stocking shelves: …tequila, Jack Danial’s, flying potion, vodka, endurance potion… :goes on like that:.

Arkon, have any hard cider over there?

Can any one be kind enough to keep my clothes safe while I join naked Twister?

Happy 300 hypergirl.
