Congrats to kik on turning 1000! :) :D :p :-)
There's a fine line between 'hey, look at my post count!' and 'oh man, I gotta get a life' and the '1000' mark is it. Great to have you on board. ;) :)
... Kik, hope you have packed your parachute... just in case... ;):D:p
I don't think he cares much about his post count.
kik, it's your bday all over again! if only you didn't have to study so hard right now. ;) :p
Congratulations from a newbie.
*smiles to himself and posts 1001* :)
Thanx guys.
Someone should give a shout to Jay as well. Congrats Jay.
Hurry up Koa, AP, anyone else who's close.
CONGRATS, JAY. :D :D :D (L)
yeah, Koa, AP, hurry you two!
az and i passed it, a while back...
Congrats Jay. I'm only 982 behind you and gaining fast!
LOL... I'm in a costant doubt between hurrying to get the glory :D, or slow down cos it would be the final seal on my scary need of a life... (btw, this is not the only forum where I'm clos to 1000 :eek: )
I forgot!!! Congrats to Kik and Jay!!!
Hahaha. That's a good question, I gotta remember that for the thread. But for now, what other forums are you on, Koa?
Hehe, cool dhm :D. There are worse things that being 900 something ;) posts behind, no one cares what's your post number anyway.
Thanks guys :D:p
Congrats to Kik and Jay from me too. I'd be up there with you, but I don't have very much to procrastinate from now that that big paper is done. :p
Hey Shea, there are always things you can procrastinate if you look harder ;):D:D:p
lol! I thought the point of procrastinating is not looking harder! :D:p
Congradulations kik and jay, on this exemplary demonstration of procrastination. Now that summer is here there is plenty more time, nothing but work and sleeping.
*suddenly very, very depressed that it is no longer summer*
*suddenly very, very depressed that it is almost summer* :p
Hey Faye, wanna switch hemispheres for the season?
I will gladly switch with you, or anyone for that matter just so I am not stuck here for four months in the states, with uncolourful money.
If only uncolorful money was our most displeasing characteristic. What color is your money? I don't know, I can't get used to foreign bills. I know it's money, I also know it's the most common look for money, but it still looks kind of like Monopoly money to me. I miss the old bills. The new ones are so boring. I liked all the leaves and curly-magigs.
I like the English pound notes. Each one is a different colour. I also like to say colour instead of color. :D. I like England. :p
Yaaay one point to the OU spelling!!! My crusade in favOUr of British English goes on... :D:D:D
Hey hands off! I'm in first line for the hemispheres exchange, as my hate for summer is ancestral!!!
*wonders if she's making sense, and wonders why she's posting crap when she doesnt want to get to 1000 soon...but there's some force that makes me post...and post...and post....*
LoL Koa! *resists the urge to post a response* *fails miserably*
I'm in favOr of RE instead of ER spellings, but I think U should keep it's butt out of it. :D Sometimes when I write in cursive or lower case (I'm an all-caps printer), I add an E to the end of words that shouldn't have one, just to make them soft and comfy looking.
that's so funny, i've noticed lately i've been unconsciously adding "e's" to words as well, like downe comforter, and towne hall. then my boyfriend e-mailed me and he spelled downe the same way! :D lol.
how's about yoghurt vs. yogurt? ;)
Yoghurt, all the way. Even though I think it's incorrect. It has that soft round look to it. :D Isn't there a Monty Python sketch like that? Like... something about the upper class playing crochet and debating which words were nice and which were "tinny." The sad thing is, I totally know what they mean. I'll have to hit google and find a transcript of the episode -- there are ppl who spend all their time transcribing Python for the net. I wonder if there's any money in that?
[EDIT] I remembered it, it took hours but I remembered how to spell "croquet." LMAO Crochet doesn't sound like such a fun sport, although I'm sure there are some grannies who disagree with me. :D
i love that you guys feel that way about the language...i personally love modifying it in my own way to suit my needs. as i have mentioned on another thread, i love the "ish" and "y" endings...like pretty-ish and thing-y.
i also seem to have an irresistable urge to constantly use elipses incorrectly...i just cant help myself.
I invent words because language lacks what could be more easily expressed by sound or facial expression. Plus, nobody ever gets me anyway.
I'm learning that this love of words and making them up is what inspired Tolkein. He was really good with them!
Hey people, back to original topic, HEY KOA, congrats :p:D
Yes. Congrats. If you looked at board right you would see I am on my way there right now, the 1000 mark. My post count is at 36 or so, but Ive been on the site for 36 hours. Wait, I just said that.
Where did AP go?
I miss that man with 2000 (or more) books..?!
And where did Crisaor go?
O gee, I feel like repeating Stan's post about the good old members...
Don't get sentimental and go reverie on us.
The fact of the matter is that members come (yay), and members go (boo). Sometimes you have to write of a classic member as 'lost'. :( . AP has been showing up, but its been few and far between. My guess is that his huge brain just got tired of going to the same site every day. He's still around from time to time, but don't expect him every day.
I'm here, Sub. Thank you. :)Quote:

No sweat Cris...yes I noticed that AP is still around..well at leats my PMs are still being replied by him.
We should make a "poester of the month" thread..so that people would feel encouraged to post and stay around..
well I don't feel this place lacks liveliness...the opposite! Everytime I'm here I'd never leave cos there's so much to answer to!!! :):):)
Though the poster of the month thing is not a bad idea... :)
I felt this was an appropriate place to put
...my 1000th post!
Congratulations NOT in order. It was wayyy too easy to achieve. ;) I'll get back to you when I hit 1,000,000. :D On that note, and mainly for the purpose of avoiding making a mark of this post -- perhaps an award thread for the person with the *smallest* ratio of posts per day? I don't know how you micro-posters manage, but I have only the utmost respect for your self-control. :D
LOL, I join that respect...*1 minute of silence*
tick tock tick tock 60 seconds passed...
PARTYYYYYYYY! Congrats Em! You great talkative one!!!! :)
gots to run - coffee with a friend, mustn't be late, but
whooohoooHOOO! em, you're closer to a 1,000,000 every second! :D :D :D
you may even beat Fayefaye there! :D
lol, perhaps. I don't mind. Though I have started double posting a LOT more since your little comments, kik. :)
