Women want me. Men want to be with me.

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

:cheers:

Celebration, even though it be for a false milestone.

Don't I recall something about a year's worth of forum posts going astray at one point?  :hmm:

Not to mention the six years of forum posts going astray before that. I had like 30000 posts at the time.

Seriously.  I've probably really got about 13k posts under my belt, just only 5k of them were here.

IIRC, the missing year of posts happened back on the IPboard software, it turned out some hardware was failing, and that was largely what prompted the move to SMF.
Experience bij!

Hey you, name your threads according to the Forum Rules.
Do you even know what's the meaning of Ichi?



"All men are created equal, then some become infantry."

You sure about that Puff?  Korea ripped off counting from China just like Japan did, and in Korea 10,000 is just man, not il man.

Yes, Man and Ichi Man are interchangeable. Never heard of that movie.

In Mandarin Chinese, everyone seems to say "yi wan" for 10,000 (as opposed to just "wan").
