Wishes for the SDMB 1,000th post fairy...

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share
1

I wish our post numbers DIDN’T update on old posts, so I could look back on old ones and trace my growth on the boards. Probably much like a common bread fungus.

I wish there were some demographics on our community, so I could place myself more accurately in some kind of pecking order. However, in the absense of any contradictory data, I’d have to say I’m way up there in wit, vocabulary, and general knowlege. I say this in full knowledge that even if there were loads of SDMB demographics available, it wouldn’t be of a sort that would allow self-placement in a pecking order.

I wish that some attractive, available woman I know in the RW, upon learning of my achievement in reaching 1,000 posts, would say, “Intellectual repartee makes me hot. Take me before you post again, and I will be your reward.”

I wish I had expressed a willingness to pay a subscription to SDMB, but when the idea was bandied about I was new here, and had no idea what a large (if pointless) part of my life it would be. And I wish that our subscriptions would have been spent on a faster server so it didn’t take for-fucking-ever to post or even lurk.

I wish I had a clue who Ed Zotti was when I met him at ChiDope, so I hadn’t blown him off so quickly.

I wish my cat didn’t have a severe undiagnosed allergy.

And lastly, as the witching hour approaches, I wish you all the best. Coming home from work and watching The Simpsons has been replaced by coming home from work and checking out the boards. Those who know me in the RW would be STUNNED by this news!

::round of applause::

and yojimboguy if I knew you in the RW and wasn’t already married I’d volunteer to be the woman you referred to - intellectual repartee could do it for me :stuck_out_tongue:

Woo baby, 1000! And smoke free! Getting hotter by the minute, yojimboguy May all your wishes come true.

HA HA!

Just be happy that no place that I know of sells keyboards with a smite key.

Congratulations and I hope your cat get’s well. They do so much for their owners.

“Intellectual repartee makes…”

(Huh? Rereads that paragraph… oh, right, sorry. Not available.)

Congrats on post #1000 and your ongoing smoke-free status. :slight_smile:

We’re more interesting than the Simpsons! :slight_smile:

Congrats on breaking into 4 digits!

I just wish I had all those qualities you mention, here for my p1k (post one thousand). I’m not trying to steal your thunder, yojimboguy, I just didn’t feel that I warrented my own thousand-post-thread, since I took my own sweet time getting here.

Geez, my SDMB self-esteem is really low right now, based on that first paragraph. I’m sorry. I’ll be more cheerful in post 1001.

By the way, congrats on your own p1k, dude!

How about 350 or so posts for me? :smiley:

Do you still have the cool chair? We stayed at the Wyndham in Tampa this past weekend and they had one in the room. How cool is that?

Congrats on your first K, now you won’t be all shy at the next ChiDope, whenever that may be.

Congrat’s yojimboguy, I wish I was more like you.

Maybe you can entertain us with what your handle means?
