Well, I’m not going to mention my post count again until I reach 2000, but I thought as I’m one of the earlier people who registered for the SDMB when it went web, it is at least noteworthy for me… even with the ire I’ve drawn at times. Yowza. ---

Hi! Am I on time for a change? Where should I put this crate of beer? Is a pavlova (cake) acceptable? Here’s a stupid joke dildo present; you can throw it away after I’m gone. I’m already wearing my bathers as you can see, so is the spa set up yet? Why are you all looking at me like that? Is it my tattoos or… oh - it’s not a post party? just a sort of welcome to 1000 thing. [sub] I feel silly[/sub] Um. [recovering quickly] Well done **Hastur** old bean! Many more! I’ll just go and get dressed now… Redface ---

I haven’t celebrated one in awhiiiile. > \*\* One key to accumulating a lot of posts is to post to everyone else’s post party thread. One key to celebrating a lot of post parties is to either start them yourself, or be popular, in which case someone will start one for you. (This explains why I’ve never had one.) ---
