All the best, Kevin!

A very happy birthday!

Salut!

Congratulations, Kevin!

Mine is on September 3rd. We were a good batch, the 10K crowd, were we not? No, I know...

On a similar note, if you click* on my profile you'll find that my comments have just reached 2002.

*Well, in the next couple of minutes, anyway. After that, I'll be marching into the Future...

my first day on the blue was: July 17, 2000

Wait, you mean your MeFi birthday??

*grabs Kevin's lapels*

You're sick, man, sick!

Feces should never be flung feebly. With gusto, man, with gusto!

Stop showing off, tj. We all know how far back you go.

*runs towards tj, arms outstretched, claws and gnashers at the ready to pillage his tasty user number*

Oh god Kafkaesque. I truly am.

*throws self in front of moving bus*

Mine was July 20-sumptin.' I didn't even realize it.

I like how Miguel joined a few months after me, but has double the comments. Good work!

If we're showing off our prolific posting histories at the blue, sit back and be amazed at my astounding numbers.

Dear god!

I have 1600 commments on MeFi! But I have slowed down to a crawl lately, allowing jonmc, Miguel and ColdChef to take up the gauntlet of incessant drone of psychobabble.

Wow, just checked mine out: August 21, 2001. And to think the day passed without any sort of ceremony. Ah, well.

And I, too, am honored to be a member of the 10k club with Mr. Cardoso. (And by the way, Miguel, your full name always reminds me of the late, great U.S. Supreme Court justice Benjamin Cardozo. He is widely regarded as one of the best legal wordsmiths ever, first on the New York Court of Appeals and later on the U.S. Supreme Court. Perhaps his most famous opinion is Palsgraf v. Long Island Railroad, in which he found that "proof of negligence in the air, so to speak, will not do." That case is worth a read. Do they still teach that case in torts, anathema?) [/lawstuff]

Kevin,

Many congratulations. Here's a hairy simian for you.

Toodles,

Gen

Actually, I've slowed at big blue myself, what with my own site and here. I just kinda pick my spots there now.
With all the (somewhat)absent old-timers and all the new names, it's kinda like going to work and finding that the whole staff was replaced while you slept.

Thanks a lot, pardon me! I'd only heard of him. I've never read an actual case either. It's great to have you point out an actual case of Cardozo's. I'll read it and let you know if it was too heavy-going for me. I love 9622.net!

Speaking of anathema, where is he? His Sweet Caroline selection is very big in my circle of friends at the moment.

As for everyone being replaced while you're on sabbatical, 6 out of 12 front page posts are from new members (above 14+). No analysis, just saying.

this caused me to look up some of my past posts at the big blue, where dogmatic and adam both went all batshit on me about my stance on smoking. heh.

ha! that is too funny, tj. i did go batshit in a few threads. ok, a few too many.

I'm working my way up to 666 comments and then stopping there; just to see what will happen.

Feeling the Simian love all around.

Blue Comments, I got assloads of. But FP links?

Just one since May '01.

I'm perversely proud of that.

Happy Birthday, Stavrosthewonderchicken. Your an old timer in my book of blue. Don't feel old, feel well diverse to be able to handle your wits with that blue love, called MetaTalk. Happy Blue Birthday to you, Kevin....
PS, you left a gift in my head whenever I think of the Blue, your blue name, Stavrosthewonderchicken...

Oh dear. I think we're going to need visual aids to explain this one.

...and some powerful, powerful alcohol.

Your an old timer in my book of blue(...)/To be able to handle your (t)its with that blue love(...)/You left a gift in my head whenever I think of the Blue/ your blue name, Stavrosthewonderchicken...

hey did I just goof, did I get Kevin mixed up with the Stavros.....as that birthday shot went to my head....

Can I or we get a who the commish are on this site as my above first comment, calling Kevin, stavros, sure to be yanked in the monkey closet for that. But I lead myself to this conclusion as somehow I mixed Kivin and Chris w/o fully researching it. Like crash and mr crash davis, not sure the same....I can go on.....or just stay TCSish.......lol :P

As an exile from the blue shores, I am laughing my considerable fanny off when I skulk over there...how inane and insane a place it can be...and I am much healthier here.

Now that is a scary thought.

*scratches armpit*

I've never been on MetaFilter. Put that in your pipe and smoke it. But pass it over here eventually.

I don't mean to be an idiot, but sometimes I can't help myself.

mr_crash_davis
Crash
MarsCrash

?

How is it that we are populated by so many percussive dynnes?

That was supposed to be a preview: Dynnes=Dins...

Proving again that I can't help being an idiot.

bunny, I banned myself from the blue, for my blog yet work banned me from internet, or tried. So you get me, I have an itch on my back can you grab it....thanks, *splat*, no not poo, but the big fly on your back...........

Come here tom, the fly landed on your head. Hold still.....

Bunny remember Snagletooth.
TCS in the voice of snagletooth:duh did you get it, as I like two lumps with my tea please.
Bunny with hammer: Boink Boink(get your mind from the gutter wrong skit)
TCS,in snaggletoothe voice: Look, at all the pastel colored suger cubes.......
Ps, I was googling snag to link, yet found nothing of interest, except for character sake, I was wanting to imitate a cartoon voice that sounds like a mouth full of marbles and sounding dumb, had forgotten he was a bugs...bunny enemy or actually bugs was his, lol bunny.

with a melon?

Oh, and happy MetaFilter birthday, Kevin!

I'm having the whole attraction/repulsion thing going on with wishing you a Happy MeFiday Kevin. Ah poo, what the hell. Happy Birthday! Now I feel much better after saying it. Moving on.

for those playing at home (and readymade)

MarsCrash: My brother Marty. the crash part has to do with our last name a certain old timey country singer (ugh, here's a link) and the Mars part was a gradeschool thing)

Crash == mr. crash davis, but he's too damn lazy to type it all out (by his own words, btw)

As long as we're on the subject, it's also never been satisfactorily explained (at last as far as I know) if Mr. Crash took his name from the real Crash Davis or the Kevin Costner character of the same name.

So what's the story, hmmmm?

MarsCrash is tj's brother, TCS wants to fondle my man-tits....what the holy hell is going on here?

Also, Happy BirBluDay, Kevin!

I'm working my way up to 666 comments and then stopping there; just to see what will happen.

I actually did that, Kevin.

What happened was Starvos blurted out the joke just before it was realized, so I had to think of something else on the fly. I forget what I was originally going to do.

You foul boozy bastard, you.

"As long as we're on the subject, it's also never been satisfactorily explained (at last as far as I know) if Mr. Crash took his name from the real Crash Davis or the Kevin Costner character of the same name."

Definitely the Costner character. As a matter of fact, I was not even aware there was a real guy named Crash Davis until I was sent his obituary with the header "Dude, are you really dead?". Then I felt badly for appropriating the name of a living person. I hope he didn't get any embarrassing phone calls because of me.

A belated thanks for clearing up any confusion re: loud noises ( and apparently Kevin Costner movies too). Hello, Crashes!

Bon giorno!

Maybe I should just shorten it to Mars? You see, when you have the name Martin as a small child, there are two ways to go. You can be Martin or Marty. Marty has unfortunate rhymes for a grade schooler, so I was Martin for a year. That turned into "Martian" which turned into "Mars" after awhile. The next year I was Marty, and the results were the whole "farty" scenario which I hoped to avoid.

Wait, what was my point?

Oh yeah. You can call me Clint.

Id rather call ye Quint!

Like a doll's eyes they are! Arrrrr........

dumb ass site yall are some bored ass people

Shit, dummy up people... she's on to us.

A note about posting images:

We encourage users to post images, especially those hilarous pics of monkeys wearing dresses or programming for Linux. But posting images that reside on someone else's server is considered by many to be bandwidth theft. Our thoughts on the matter, along with some solutions to the problem, can be found here. Thanks.
