So uh, this is to 1000 posts of utter rubbish! You're welcome

[Jack W]

I'd like to take the crown, and announce that this is my 1000th post.

 

Thank you to everyone in the community who has:

 

• Engaged in my random ramblings here-and-there
• Taken part in commenting on news stories posted by me
• Dealt with my... spam

 

You're true soldiers, all of you.

 

Particular thanks to @BinaryData, @The Evil Overlord and @upnorth. 

 

So, which staff member will be first to bump my head with the ban hammer?

Ah, will do! That shall be for another day though... I haven't slept and I've got work in around 5 hours. *runs away into the darkness of the interwebz*

Hmm... I think I'm getting close to 1337

 

I dunno why I'm tagged in here. I don't ramble.

I ain't an old man yet If I get married I will. Haha. My turns reddish in the summer, and dark brown in the winter. It's currently longer than that one, I'm not going to trim it until I get my next job interview. Then I'll pay to have someone professionally trim it.

But you seemed so keen at first. Oh well.

 

Also, what sort of articles would you post if you were allowed to post anything?

Eh, things that shouldn't be spoken about on Public Forums. I would love to see Neowin get an "Adult" Section, but I doubt Steven would allow that

Cap'n Haddock from Tin Tin? The hell is that? What beard oil do you use? I don't use any right now. I was worried about it doing something to the servers I work on. I shed like a dog, it's rather unbecoming to be honest.
