1000th Post!

[JaymesFogarty]

As part of my 1000th post, I thought I'd comment on an observation I did earlier.

The internet is a place teeming with cynicism. If you are grammatically incorrect, you will be torn apart like prey, and although I agree that grammar is important, how rude people can sometimes be over a simple mistake can be shocking. Along with conspiracy theorists, and atheist & religious virtual dictators, life on the web is a huge downer; even the news is guilty of ignoring the positive and glorifying shocking and tragic news.

So today, as part of my 1000th post, celebrate by typing something good about yourself. Yes, you read completely correctly. There is no catch; there is no punishment. Simply state something positive about yourself. It can be about your intelligence, appearance, family, past events, or even possessions. Go on, give it a shot!

I'll start: I am by far the best gamer in my family; it doesn't help at all that the only competition owns a Wii, (not being rude, they only have two games on it, and the oldest is 13) but that's definitely a plus about me.

Congrats on making Gone Gonzo.

Ok, something good about me, um, I have awesome looking eyes.

If I may say so, I draw quite [http://artbyruben.blogspot.com/2010/11/beautiful-people.html] well. And my first ever Fallout mod [http://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=38407] is doing pretty good, and I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a bit proud of that.

Also, congratulations on hitting the fourth digit.

I dyed my hair and I'm pretty pleased with the result!

 

[CombiBlood]

I have a unique sadistic humor that most people at my school fine disturbing.

I die laughing at JTHM.

I got a 98 on my geometry finals!

 

[Knusper]

I guess I'm good at maths and... work, but

I draw quite [http://artbyruben.blogspot.com/2010/11/beautiful-people.html] well.

Don't tell yourself that they are QUITE good, those are pretty neat.

By the way, OP, nice work on getting 1000.

Grats on going Gonzo.

Something positive? Well, I'm a quick learner in most areas, although not in mathematical context. I'm also a likable guy with a lot of friends, and I'm halfway through my philosophy course at Uni.

So, all in all, I'm doing pretty good at life, if I may say so myself.

It's looking like I might not be half-bad at this officer thing, at least judging by some of my senior cadets.

Well done you!
And now I'm going to feel awfully embarrassed and try to be modest because I have no idea what my post count is, and it's probably ridiculously high. Does that count as something good?

Hmm, 18,000. I should really pay more attention, maybe I'll finally manage to make a thread about it. Very well done you for paying attention to yours!

 

[Bravo 21]

i havent accidentally killed or seriously injured myself yet. I consider that a very good thing. Im also in fairly good shape. And OP, you have my congratualations

If I was a jerk I'm not a jerk! Normally.

Congrats on 1000 dude! *high fives*

 

[Palademon]

I'm intelligent...enough to stand out from average people, but not enough to be congratulated for it.

 

[KefkaCultist]

As far as I know I'm the most computer literate person within 10 miles
thats actually not a hard feat being that I live in a rural town that revolves around football.

Coincidently I'm also the nerdiest kid within 10 miles as well

 

[Neonbob]

Congratulations on reaching 1,000!
The only thing I can really think of to be proud of lately is my volleyball skills.

 

[Padwolf]

Congrats on getting to 1000!

Hmm... I'm good at playing piano

 

[Glademaster_v1legacy]

I've manage to avoid getting banned from here for 2 score and 11 months. Currently unless I drop down in Irish after the mocks I am one of 4 I think people in my year doing all Honours Subjects.

Cheers! And of course not; having a high post count is proportional to how much of your mind you are willing to give. As far as I'm concerned, the more you can say, the more you know.

Although it's nothing of course compared to your 6000 odd. Congrats on your positive aspect; not always being a jerk; see highlighted.
