What did you do with your 5000th post?

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

People say post count doesn’t matter, and that it’s inaccurate anyway. I say shut up and go away.

This will be post #4996 (I think) so I am pretty close.

I am also a shameless attention seeker as you may know by now. So I probably should make my 5000th post interesting in some way.

Or I might have my humble head on and deliberately waste it by posting ‘Hit by a bus’ in the 'predict the death of the previous poster, or something equally pointless.

Either way, I am curious as to what other dopers did with their 5000th or other large milestone post. This thread is not aimed at stealing one of those ideas (you never know though). It is just that the relevance of my current post count has given me the idea to ask what other people did, out of curiosity.

I guess I’m not much help, as I have yet to reach 500.

I’m not much help, either… haven’t reached 5000 yet myself. Although I do remember the days when you were behind me in post count… not that it matters. :wink:

What to do with a 5000th post:

  1. Make a T-shirt slogan out of it
  2. Drop it from a tall building, and see it it bounces, or goes “squish!”
  3. Take it to a fancy restaurant, order up large, then leave it to pay the bill.

Ice Wolf has been watching too many Goon Shows…

Don’t go to too much trouble - just a standard “TheLoadedDog is God” post should suffice.

No no, don’t thank me.

My 5K is also coming up, and it will be a post like any other.

Unless this is it, in which case woohooo!!! woohooo!!! woooooooo!!!

Darn, so close. (it was 5992 at this writing).

Holy crap! Revtim has posted almost 1000 times in the past day. Must be some sort of record. :wink:

I guess I’m getting close too. I’ll be happy just watching the numbers click over. Let’s see how close I am.

Sigh, not to timey Fern ol’ boy. I guess that what happens when you’re playing games & reading dope.

I vote for a nice, big ol’:

Ah, they’re 1920’s style "Death Rays"

Yeesh. I just broke 100 today. I can’t imagine 5,000.

I’ll be making plans for my 500 and 1,000. Maybe. I did nothing for my 100.

Like they’re birthdays or something. Yeesh.

I took a photo of it and carry it around in my wallet.

Oddly enough, mine was asking if my plans for a time machine would work… most people said that they thought it would, but no one forsaw that I’d get stuck back here! Now I gotta live the next 2 years all over again. :mad:

I plan to kill a hamster with it.

Buy a round of drinks. That’s what I plan to do for 5000. And 5100, 5200, 5300…
