Trion's 100th post - A Retrospective

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share
1

It has become something of a tradition around here to throw a party and pat yourself on the back when you reach the 100th post. Personally, I don’t think 100 is all that big a number so I’m gonna do something different. I’m taking this opportunity to look back at my posting history and see how I got here.

Post 1: I delurk and am immediately accused of being a sock puppet. I don’t even know what that means. Must lurk more.

Post 9: I join the fray at Great Debates. I mention that I like the gel toothpaste better than the normal kind. CalifBoomer says that this is an ad hominem and a flame war erupts. I retreat, bleeding, to MPSIMS

Post 18: Bricker begins a series of 3-Minute Mysteries. In every one I am named as the corpse. Things aren’t going well.

Posts 22 thru 73: In an attempt to get some respect I up my post count by posting 52 tests in About This Message Board. Everybody does it. Right?

Post 81: There is a question on the toxicity of mushrooms over in General Questions and I know the answer. Sadly, in an attempt to answer before anyone else, I introduce an unfortunate typographical error into my post. We never hear from bedboy4 again.

Post 97: Esprix tells me I’m not allowed to ask him anything.

And that bring us to 100. Onward!

Hey Trion, where’d you get your nick? What is the meaning?

Of course, when I saw the thread, I read it as “Trojan’s 100th post”

I sold my soul to Satan for a dollar. I got it in the mail.

If I start a thread called “Coldfire’s 2150th Post - A Retrospective, post by post”, will you guys start hitting me?

Start?!?]

spoke- asks:

I haven’t mentioned this before because, frankly, it’s boring. It’s just a name I came up with that I liked the sound of. I thought of it when messing around with a role playing game ages ago. I was trying out the character creation system and came up with a character where the number three was significant - hence the “Tri”. The character got tossed (I was just getting used to the system anyway) but I liked the sound of the name.

That’s all there is too it. Kinda dull, huh?

First of all, I laughed out loud at this. If you made any errors in the past 100, you more than made up for them here. I think we all can appreciate someone who can mock themselves.

Where? Who? Wha?

well congrats on your 100, I don’t think that I’ve even bothered to check my count lately, talk about mundane.

The truth is, every time I see your name, I read it as “Tron”.

but then again, I am really into glowing Frisbees.

You say “cheesy” like that’s a BAD thing.
