I still find it totally amazing that you can generate posts of this length and lucidity - on a Kindle! Bravo!

yvanleterrible · 07-28-2010, 12:44 PM

I will say the same. It's already a handful on an iPad but on a Kindle?

Hat's off to you, recluse! 2000 is quite an achievement.

Good job Recluse on 2k posts. I guess I will tell you that here since I am still confused with who can use the milestone thread.

Eating lunch at my desk.

Done and none spilled on my desk. Did get some rice on my shirt through

Quake1028 · 07-28-2010, 01:08 PM

That should say though but since I can't see the edit button at work it will remain.

That is why I get down to my boxers when I eat my lunch at work.

If you want to know us better, turn on the PM option; Personal Messages can be read on a Kindle! There are many times I would have liked to respond to things you've said, and offered support concerning things you've gone through, but not publicly, because there are some aspects of my own life that I'd rather not be common knowledge.

Absolutely! I've tried it, and it isn't for the fainthearted!

Congrats on the 2K posts!

recluse · 07-28-2010, 02:05 PM

Tom, you may PM me at will.
But gently, two at a time jams my Kindle for at least half an hour.

Thanks for the congratulations.
I will process the wonder of it all at my leisure.
I must leave you now, for the supermarket cries out to me and a .50 cent bean sale waits for no man. I lust for black eyed peas and such a lust cannot be denied. For what is a man without beans but a man without gas to blame on the dog. Fair is fair. The flatulent little bastard has been farting up a storm and giving me dirty looks. Vengence is nigh and will soon come to pass from between the butt cheeks of Justice. Alas, farting is such sweet sorrow. Beans today, gas tomorrow. I need some sleep. I need some coffee. I need, therefore I am. Fark Shakespeare, this crap is easy. Whether it is nobler to take the b.s. or sling it right back at them. Gotta be careful there.

Just trying to be polite and respectful.

What you originally asked for was curses. Incorrect specifications produce unwanted results, which are always blamed on the developers.

Merde.

2000 posts. Verily a minor milestone considering how many babbling post padders I share this forum with. Many of whom do not even pause to form a coherent thought before spewing their verbal diarrhea all over innocent bystanders. Yea, though I wander through the sewers of MobileRead, I will fear no stupidity, for I wear the galoshes of literacy.
Since I first arrived within these heavily crayon scrawled halls, I have been befriended by many, though their combined I.Q.s add up to so very few. The groping that ensued was unsettling, the conversations forgettable and the spelling deplorable. Yet, scattered within this seething mass of sweaty naked flesh, a small group struggles against the undertow of ignorance to touch my mind, my heart and my soul. I would name them now, if any of them were actually here to bask in the afterglow of my triumph against adversity and this tiny Kindle keyboard. You know who you are. I know who you are. We share the knowing and in the knowing share the knowledge that we know each other. Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? Don't ask me, I don't know. But I know what I know about those of you I know by having gotten to know you. Even if some of you refuse to allow me to know you intimately. Your loss. Want a cookie? I do enjoy a good cookie every now and then. But, alas, I am without cookies. The maple/peanut butter dog biscuits aren't bad, though.
Finally, it is the duty of every MobileRead member to fight against the spread of the Romance genre both here and abroad. If you know a broad who reads that crap, throw her a cheap feel. Literature should never replace a good regular boff, boink or spork. Mods, you are on notice! Catch someone pushing Romance novels, pull them to the side and make an obscene suggestion. If they actually write the stuff, try fire.
Thank you.
