    Was there any doubt ? Look I'm not saying that dumb uninformed people who go on tv and spew nonesense about how vaccines are "making my child t3h ret4rded" should be fined for causing public panic, oh wait, yes I am. How thick can you get ? :rolleyes:

    I saw something pretty funny on tumblr;

    " I'd say F*(? the weather, but it's under 18 " :lol: right ? Currently -23C in the greater Montreal area in the People's Republic of Soviet Cannuckistan*.

    *always made me laugh, even though it's kinda innacurate since the conservative party is in control of parliament since, like 2006 I think ?

    For some reason that feels like a really small number.

    800K posts ? Does it include individual responses from every thread or 800k different threads ? I'm just curious. Either way it's impressive.

    Oh and I've just applied for a copy-writer job for an airline co. Should be fun, right ? How hard could it be ! I'm absolutely 100% certain it would be nothing like Mad Men, yet I kinda wish it would be. :lol: I've a B.A in linguistic, so words are my thing.

    I wonder how the post count per year would look like. I can't imagine we generate as many posts nowadays as in the early days.

    Probably not, there was a lot more people back then. I can even remember a few member's name, so that's saying a lot [I have a *****y memory]. :)

    With the upcoming releases of D&D games, and games closely related to it, we might see a boast. Lots of people like fora without the spammers, ranters and juveniles.

    A few drops of cleaning fluid dropped into the keyboard of my laptop. a few keys are not functioning anymore.
    Removed the keyboard, and washed it under water.
