The end is closer than that. You aren’t counting the deleted posts, so the actual count is 11 more. Your post, for example, was #9967.

This thread has been like the office guy who showed up a few years ago, you kinda like him because he’s soooo easy to razz on, kinda don’t because deep down he really is an asshole, but you’re glad he got demoted out of your department back to paper clip sorting.

I’m still not padding my posts.

It’s more like whoring my posts at this point.

Would that actually be possible? After all, there are guards at Arlington.

Just getting my $0.02 in before the thread close down 😃

How many (recent) dead presidents are buried at Arlington (for some reasonable value of “recent”, like maybe Post-WWII)? Reagan isn’t there – he’s on a hilltop in Simi Valley.

I can help with getting the thread to 10,000. Like this post.

More seriously, will Trump be a significant factor in 2024? Or will he be yesterday’s news, as Hillary Clinton turned out to be?
