As I approach post #1000

GJK · December 07, 2013, 10:33:37 AM

As I approach post #1000 here on Grogheads, my mind begins to wander:

• What BS was there that I had so much to talk about?
• Why am I often a "thread killer"?
• Why do these guys tolerate me? I mean, why do I tolerate these guys?
• Is what I post here actually read by more than just Staggerwing and Judge Dread?
• Why do I snicker and roll my eyes when the PC gamers talk about how much fun they had playing silly little space games or games with monsters, orcs, trolls or dragons?
• Perhaps I am the best wargamer on this message board. No, I AM the best wargamer on this message board, I just have played against any of these guys yet to prove that.
• Why do I only have one little Gold Box next to my profile? And what they hell does that gold box mean anyways? Surely it's not a popularity thing.
• Will this thread reach 36 pages like that damn "Rome2" thread?
• When will the sub-40yr olds here learn that Call of Duty and Battlefield aren't real wargames?
• Back to those silly little space and dragon games, isn't this a place for WARGAMING? Just saying.
• Is there really a flight simulator/tank shooter that makes you purchase additional planes and tanks? Silly twits.
• Do I really want to be spending so much time on a forum that has but not one female member? Do I really?
• Why is the Tabletop Gaming section below the kids' Computer Gaming section and why isn't the Boardgaming board the most popular one here?

But most of all, I wonder....

Let me get back to that thought, just got IM'd on facebook.

• Edit: Why does this silly thing have to let the world know that I can't spell or I had a change of mind about what I posted by saying "Last edit....". I want these geeks here to think that I'm perfect in every post that I make.

Not sure why you only have one gold box. You should have several by now.

That fact that you're only now getting up to 1000 posts demonstrates you're not only a bad wargamer, but also not a real wargamer.

If dragons are so silly, why did the military name the M-47 ATGM after them?

Actually, non of this is real.

You are in a coma after dropping the boxes containing all your ASL stuff over the floor.

We are but figments of your tortured imagination............

But you have no gold boxes sir and I don't care if you "administer" this place.

Perhaps I've only reached 1000 (almost) because I actually am off PLAYING WARGAMES and not just flapping my lips about them, or er, poking at my keyboard about them.

The military also named their new Willy Jeep a "Humvee". Doesn't convince me that they know how to name things properly. Yes, it's their "New" Jeep. Damn thing came out after I left the service so it's new to me.

And you sir are also a one gold-box geek who could only dream of having as many ASL counters as I do!

For the record- The community consensus on what to call the 'gold boxes' is 'cheeses'. Not sure what we should call any other colors yet.

I used to have more cheese but I guess we're both just one-cheese wonders now...

Welcome to that time sink called, Grogheads. Here you will be able to realize your full potential for getting along with people with similar likes and tastes in many areas of your life. Soon, you will find yourself thinking of Grogheads even when you are doing normal, every day activities offline. If left untreated, you will become unable to function unless connected to Grogheads through one of the various devices you can use to access this site. You may go now, but, be assured that you WILL be back.

I'll be back? Who the hell said that I was leaving? >:( >:( >:(

I think he means leaving to try and get any housework or needed errands done. They're all irrelevant distractions anyway.

Blue Cheese.

We did have several more cheese boxes until we took up arms in the TS affair. Now we are reduced to but one, and I assume
~~the other bunch of reprobates~~ our Soviet opponents are also suffering from cheese depletion.

Truly, the thought of your massed boxes of ASL counters, maps and rule books send shivers down my spine.

Staggerwing is correct.
