LONG LIVE THE MEGA-POST!
You should be able to view it again, but Masako had to shut off the comments at…
3821.
She had to delete one spam comment to get it viewable again (link).
Please, let’s hear a big round of applause for all of you who posted in the Mega-Post and kept it alive for a year and four months. Please use this comment thread to post your fondest memories of the post with the most…
the Mega-Post.
Ace,
It used to be “Somebody stole the theme”
Now it is “Satirizing the Apple world since… OMG it’s been THAT long?”
Thank you. The tag line change gives me hope for the future. The worst effects of climate change will be curtailed, various fascist world leaders will be forced into retirement, and CARS will get a funny article posted eventually.
Following that Ace it is time to wish you all you wish yourselves.
Oh dear, Nxxx. That means you’ll be visiting me either in jail or A&E. Or possibly both.
Cheer up BroMu.
Prison hospital is very comfortable.
It still being December 23 where I live, I want to wish everyone a mighty Festivus. I forgot to erect the traditional aluminum pole, but will celebrate in some other fashion.
You can get Polish citizens in aluminium (thanks for the English spelling) in the States? Mainly plumbers this side of the pond.
Happy Festivus, Yule, Boxing Day, etc.!
Peppermint makes me sneeze!
Happy Festivus indeed! Sorry for the delay. Went away for the ‘Fest’ bit.
My resolution for the new year (First!) is 72 pixels per inch.
Ace,
Setting a low bar for the resolution??
Baby steps. It was good enough for 1984…
I haven’t resolved. Either festively or psychically. I live in hope that 2020 will be the year, though.
Surely 2020 is the common era year although there are many alternatives, so you could choose one of those.
In the Mayan calendar, today is 13.0.7.2.12, and my numerologist says it is not a good day to toss the caber, bake a salmon, or put one’s hat on backward.
I think we should just go back to year zero. Every year. It’s always worked out so well in the past, what’s not to like? Not least because that would instantly halt all ageing. Which I could do with at the moment, to be honest.
If you stop ageing, my spot as an ancient old git will not be tenable.
Somewhat changing topics… This one, a question for the Cousins: does “royals” “news” qualify as news on the other side of the pond? It’s treated that way here. (Eye rolling to the point of almost detaching my retina.)
Alas yes. Although we do like the Queen. And Princess Anne. The jury’s out on the rest of ’em, though. Unless they offer me a gong – specifically a CGP (Commander of the Giga Post). In which case they’re *great*.
It must be rough to be a monarch in an age when there is no real monarching that needs to be done, especially when your subjects are paying you to do whatever it is that you do (keeping up appearances?).
Don’t you realise that Brenda, Private Eye’s name for the Queen, has planned this well.
Who else would have named them The Duke and Duchess of Suss— EX?
I think the ‘ex’ is how the Duchess will be referring to the Duke once she’s ridden his fame pony into the ground.
An image that’s disturbed even me.
PS: As you can see, I can only manage half a post of highfalutin socio-political discussion before crashing back down into filth.
You’re welcome.
Which of you islanders will be taking the place of Prince Harry in the royal family? I hear that the hours and pay are not too shabby.
Excellent use of ‘shabby’ there, Ace. And I nominate Nxxx.
What could possibly go wrong?
Everything.
Anonymous!? How rude.
It’s gotten to the point that when I see “Anonymous” I immediately think “BroMu incognito.”
In case he ultimately becomes royalty, it will be that much easier to hide.
Before I give any consideration to this vacancy, have any of you any illegal habits, sexual unusualities or dangerous driving techniques?
Only ask as there is no wish to add to the Saxe-Coburg-Gotha-Battenbergs=Mountbatten-Windsor list of disadvantages.
I drive with clowns packed into the car, but never more than fifteen, as it steams up the windows.
Do they work the car by running along with their feet out the bottom while tooting a horn jauntily, Ace?
No, but that’s a stellar idea. I could have the little fellows dress in bear skins and shout “Yabba Dabba Dooo.”
Where are the rest of you? Was it something I said?
