Yeah, ok, it’s not that big a deal. But it seems to be a tradition 'round these parts to show off your 1000th post. So, here it is. Go me! Or something. Hmmmm…I should say something more, I suppose, but I’m not much of a speechwriter, really. What’s that?? You say you could write a better 1000th post speech with your eyes glued shut and one hand tied behind your back? Well, let’s see, smarty-pants. :dubious: What would **you** write to celebrate 1000 posts? ---

You’ve only been here a little over a month? Slow down, man! ---

Congrats on 1000. But you really do not need to post to every thread you read. What would I write to celebrate 1k? Not a damn thing. I didn’t notice 100, didn’t notice 200, and won’t notice 1000 posts, when I finally reach it in the year 2043. ---

If I ever hit 1000 posts, I will notice it and stare at my post count in amazement, but do nothing. ---

Keep it up and you might wind up in Handy-land. 😃 I kill me. (this post in no way implies any disrespect to our beloved Handy, a terse, succinct and pithy yet prolific poster who is one of my favorites along with the most righteous Zev Steinhardt) ---

Hmmm handy… you’d better start speeding up if you want to catch him! Congrats on the 1k… and congrats on getting featured on Threadspotting! ---

Wow! I only started that thread because I was in a silly mood that day. Who knew it would take off? It certainly took a turn from the direction it was intended, however. Quite possibly the longest hijack I’ve ever seen. ---

I wish I had 1000 posts…
