2000 posts everyone, Hurray for me.

[Calibanbutcher]

Hurray, I have reached 2000 posts, so applaud me and bring some cake as well.

In all honesty:
I really like these forums, or I do, most of the time, especially when there aren't as many flamewars going on and people discuss more "fun" stuff, as opposed to arguing with each other like monkeys flinging shit in a cage, which, whilst entertaining to watch, gets dull after a while.

And now, to introduce some sort of reason-d'être to this thread:

Tell these forums about the driving force that keeps you going in life.
Why do you continue to go on?
What drives you to persist?
Why is it that you have not yet decided to just quit everything, lie down and crawl into a whimpering ball of misery?

My main driving force is sheer willpower. I just refuse to give up on anything or anyone, and as long as I am able to continue, able to drag myself towards my goal, I will not cease to move towards it, and I will drag those with me that don't have the strength left themselves.

That and an unquenchable rage that makes my blood boil every waking moment.

Ok, maybe the rage part is made up.

Or maybe it isn't.

Either way, I just posted here for the 2000th time.

Congrats on the 2000 posts Calibanbutcher, I recognise you quite well for your number of posts so well done for that too.

As for your question... fun is what I live for. Honestly, I just love life and almost everything in it, I do whatever the hell I want and zero fucks given about what anyone-else thinks.

 

[Colour Scientist]

Yay!

Ever since the sexism communicast, I read your posts in your voice.
Your voice is crazy, good crazy!

 

[SckizoBoy]

Eh... I've become so apathetic about post-count that though I had a thread idea for my 10000th (look below my badges, reader, look, damn you!) I really could not be arsed, and instead just declared my insignificance in the Injustice League chat.

*shrug* Anyway, I'd bring some cake, but I think I'd spew phlegm all over it in spite! (I have flu...) =P

But seriously, I take it since you've been here almost four years with a post count that would make Topaz laugh with supercilious disdain, you're a non-FG, non-UGC poster. And in so saying, you've done something that I never could... and that's remain loyal to the boards... I'm basically addicted to usergroup chat these days... not a particularly good addiction to have, as my fellow sufferers will attest...(!) -.-

I have gotten a great many comments on my voice before, but you are the first one to call my voice crazy.
Thank you for that, if it was a compliment.
And if not, my voice will come to get you.

Happy 2000 posts .

We should have happier threads yes, but even when we get a new game to talk about everyone is super depressing.

 

[thesilentman]

Huh? You're not on my friend list? NEED TO FIX THAT! x-D

Congrats man. I doubt no one would notice if I got to 2000, but I think I'm good with my post count now.

Edit-

Just noticed thread topic. X-P

My main motivation for me is what I'd like to improve on. Yeah, that just about covers it.

I do that will everyone's voice now.

It's almost like someone mentioning "You are now reading this in Morgan Freeman's voice" and you start doing that.

OT: Hooray!

I'm a stubborn person, so I refuse to give up. I will not let something beat me and if something does manage to do that then I'm not gonna be happy about it, and I will try harder so that it take round 2 without a fight.

It's why sickness like the flu never stay around long with me. They are infecting the wrong person.

You remind me of one of my teachers. We used to joke that he never got sick, because his body would just burn the germs and virusses as fuel. He was once hospitalized in the morning and made it back to school in time for his german class.

Happy 2000 posts .

1. See, you get quoted on stuff NOT feminism related.
2. That was a depressing post, so here, have a bunny.

HA!

I think my genes are like Vikings and they just attack the foreign invaders because irony is lost on them.

 

[Ilikemilkshake]

I'm coming up for 2000 posts myself, so congrats from me

As for your questions... I keep posting here because it's something to do when I'm bored. Good enough?

 

[Basement Cat]

Well done, young padawan. Now it is time for you to charge into the unknown. Today you enter the horrific territories of Forum Games and User groups!!!

Spoiler: You'll need this

[HEADING=1]Prepare yourself!!![/HEADING]

Good crazy!

You kind of sound like you're a villain or at least constantly plotting.


In a good way, it's really cool!

 

[The Wykydtron]

Hmm, yeah you've still got a long way to go rookie. Maybe one day you can have as many posts as I, The Wykydtron! Then i'll let you into a 1v1 battle with me in LoL. That's the real test of manliness.

OT: Yeah I come here for the lolz. And to lighten this place up a bit with my forever lighthearted and "funny" posts. You're all so serious all the time! Lighten up will ya?

 

[PsychicTaco115]

I carry on posting because if I didn't, who would?

I don't know!

Congrats on 2K, now go for the record! Shoot for the thrill and whatnot!

PERSEVERE!

 

[Goofguy]

Welcome to the 2000 club. You're going to notice quickly that not a damn thing changes. Sorry for ruining the magic.

And I post because I dunno, it's fun and all the cool kids are doing it. Come to think of it, that's pretty much how I make all my big decisions in life.

 

[Redlin5_v1legacy]

Hey, congrats on your arbitrary number!

Seriously though, congratulations on making it to a personal milestone.

Now to answer your questions.

Why do you continue to go on?

I love posting and being silly. There are worse ways to spend extra free time.

What drives you to persist?

Er, same reasons? I guess the content here makes me want to keep being here.

Why is it that you have not yet decided to just quit everything, lie down and crawl into a whimpering ball of misery?

Love? Yeah, love. Love is my answer.

 

[Daystar Clarion]

Oh, 2000 posts?

Nah man, congrats, although said congrats are revoked if you posted in a user group at any time

 

[Techno Squidgy]

I post because... I don't know. I kind of like this place I guess?
As for what keeps me going, I guess I would put that down to pure stubbornness. I refuse to let the world or anyone beat me into submission. And it worked! I found my girlfriend by just hanging in there and being happy when it felt like no one wanted me to be, and since then we've both been truly happy for the first time in a long while

 

[Evil Smurf]

Dear Manatee
Will you ever be cool like me?
Cats are better, everyone agrees,
learn to post, or you might get fleas.

To another 2000 posts! Have a drink on me.
