This is my 16,000th post.

So what have I learned?

1. Posting factual knowledge will not make you popular.

2. Belief in myths allows the comfort of having an opinion without the discomfort having to think.

3. Anyone who won't give up after having lost the argument marches to the beat of a dead horse.

All of which is sig-worthy.

All of which can be applied to the majority of the internet. Anyways, congratulations on reaching 16,000 posts.

Congrats! *shakes your hand*

I enjoy believing in myths. It's not that I don't like to think; it's that myths are what keep me sane. I'd rather believe in something that's not true and be happy than to realize the truth and be hauled away in a straight jacket (which some people might argue is necessary for me anyway, but I digress :wink: )

Hmm come to think of it, that's sig-worthy too :chin:
