Those in the 5,000 and up post club and those who want to be

I don't have a life.

My reason: I have nothing to say. I say it often.

Well, somehow I made it over the 10K post mark, prolly cuz I don't have a real life.

Isn't AW life? Is there something else out there?

over a hundred of mine are from the AW idol competition.

several hundred are posted poems, critiques of other poems, discussions about poets and their craft

several thousand are from debate threads on politics

several hundred are personal attacks on other posters

another several hundred are posts mocking shallow thought and insipid ideas

fourteen are posts declaring my undying love for other posters

sixty-eight are posts threatening to do harm to myself

two posts are questions about what constitutes the sharpest possible knife blades

one post was how to put out a cat that's on fire

Did you follow my directions, by the way? Walk away...it'll eventually go out. Is that what you went with?

yes. my only complaint is that it was medium well instead of medium, and it cast something of a pall over dinner.

5,000 is fine, but anyone who has 10,000 posts or more is some kind of narcissist.

I bought most of mine from ebay.

I'm a long-winded, narcissistic, prolific bullshitter.

I was just speaking with my wonderful self and we both agree. You, sir, are full of crap. Now, if you'll excuse me...I'm late for a party I'm throwing for myself.

i would join you but, alas, i have a previous engagement with myself.

no worries. it's a me party. others might just cause an attention distraction anyway. enjoy your engagement.

Life...um...had one somewhere...where did I put it?

All of mine are hit and run one liners.

The SFF bar. Nuff said.

That and I cling to AW for sanity in these times of stress.

I'm not even close to 5,000 posts because Office Party doesn't count, but most of mine which do count are from welcoming newbies to AW. The rest are in writerly related threads and P&CE when I feel like contributing to the conversation something which hasn't been said before. I see no need for me to echo others.

we look forward to seeing one of these one liners you speak of.

I suck.... I think my counter is broke or something.

Um, that was a one liner.

This is a two liner.

Okay I'm in my second year at AW, Take away the three days I was kittied, though I still think I was right, at this rate I will have to be here untill 2018 just to match the ferret. I can't even match Haskins because he's the only one I ever personally attack. This is a lost cause.

you need to diversify.
