What should I do for my 1000th post?

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share
1

I guess I’m getting a little long in the tooth.

I thought about doing a post where I seriously share what I’ve learned here.

I thought about trying to do something funny.

I thought about doing a 1000th post party like I’ve seen others do. Maybe Wally might give me that Sig as a present.

But,

I feel kinda depressed, like I’m having a mid-post crises or something. DO I have another 100 posts in me? Or, will my keyboard just lock up in mid-post one day?

I think of all the things I wanted to do and didn’t. The stupid things I said that were wrong. How can I go on?

Maybe I should just stop here, never get to that 1000th post and start over again with a new name.

Maybe I can sell my 1000th post.

What should I do?

Ok, now what?

(and don’t get tricky, I know what’s coming next, but I won’t fall for it. I’m not as gullible as I used to be.)

Now you respond to this message, of course! (Silly me, I figured you’d have posted at least one more message somewhere on the board before seeing my response.)

Or you could go worship me in Great Debates. :slight_smile:

Just ignore my 1000 post for you.

I didn’t see this one, but saw you at 999 and figured you had forgotten. How dense is that?

Here’s to 999 and 1001 as well, in case I miss the official one !

Dear Scylla, I would love to hear the latest news on your groundhog extermination efforts. Got any more Nazi groundhog stories?

We are waiting with bated breath for number 1000. You have at least another couple of thousand in ya. Have a glass of wine on me.

8

Well you could use your 1,000th in the pit to aknowledge my aknowledgement that I was whooshed by your tounge in cheek post. Or not.

I don’t know since I haven’t reached 1,000 yet. :frowning:

9

well whatever you do, happy 1000 Scylla.

10

Sure, make 1000 a masterpiece. We can wait.

(Hope it’s not too long - I spilled my punch into my lap and it’s chafing.)

HRRRRRRRARRRRRRRRRRUNNNNNNNNNNNNG!!! ahhhhhhhhhh.

Whoo!
That’s been building for six months.

Anybody got any TP?

Thanks everybody for putting up with me!
(I wrote an interminable sappy thing discussing all I learned, the fun I had, the great discussions, and how I found this board and the great people on it. Pretty unreadable actually. In the end I guess it’s probably best to go for the yuck.)

Hats off to Scylla everybody! (If you wear a hat in the Board Room. If not, go git one and hurry back her!)

Ya already did it, Scylla. You hung around this asylum, got yourself thoroughly adopted, accepted and enjoyed, “whoosed” both Ayesha and I (hard-bitten cynics that we are) and have generally enriched, enlivened, educated and amused your fellow inmates.

Now dontcha go get all angst-ridden on us. Just by chance I brought a cooler of microbrews, jerky, Mudslides (thanks, Lynn!), two slightly squashed bags of tortilla chips and a bowl of nuclear guacamole.

Uh…you don’t have any pets, furnishings or appliances you’re really attached to, do you?

Celebration in honor of Scylla!

Long may you wave.
