10,000th post requests (1 Viewer)

[jane]

Well, folks, I'm about to hit the 10,000 mark, making my total Thumped postage one digit (or two, at this point in the year) longer than the amount of my take-home pay in a year.

I'm taking requests.

What should it be about? I don't want to waste it.

Part of me thinks it should be an essay about baby otter wombs, but then I think I'd rather fancy myself the composer of witty epigrams, and might do a haiku or something.

 

[7 - No tomorrow]

A list of the things you could have done instead?

It might be cathartic.

Maybe be tough for Jane to trim it down to 10,000.

Probably a good idea.

Has nice confessional overtones to it, in keeping with the zeitgeist.

 

[Froog]

can you put these at the end of the post jane?

 

[ratmonkey]

You could do a synopsis of all previous posts.

How do we know you're the same magicbastarder? It's a pretty common username.

 

[Wobbler]

It's not the sort of thing I'd lie about.

So, who's our top poster?

 

[jane]

According to the uncensored history of Thumped, that'd have to be Hag in all his various guises.

Before -- you know. You know. The pogrom.

Any stats regarding wordcount?

 

[jane]

Here it is, folks.

My 10,000th post.

What an anti-climax.

I could have been writing a book, finishing my PhD, working my way up the corporate ladder, becoming a trapeze artist, writing a winning Eurovision entry, taking care of unwanted dogs, inventing new conspiracy theories, smashing the patriarchy, developing a cure for the common prick.

I'm expecting better from # 20,000.
