Welcome to Dakar's legacy thread celebrating post 10,000!


Swords and Secret Garden DVDs for everyone!

And let's not forget that this is Dakar²'s 5000th post!



I mean, what can I say *wipes tear from eye*
It's been almost 6 months since Dakar² was born and its been a wild ride.

First off, I'd like to thank God, without whom all this wouldn't have been possible. He must have been watching over us today, helping us to victory. I'd also want to thank my parents, who supported me and encouraged me when I was down on my posting.

Further, I'd like to thank Tooki, Demonhood, and the rest of Admin at MacNN. These 10,000 infractionless posts are a testament to your success in building the MacNN Empire, regardless of the fact that I haven't read your front page in seven years.

I'd like to thank Kevin, Railroader, and sometimes Doofy, who are like BALCO only for posting, the Victor Contes to my Barry Bonds. Whatever you say in response to this post, chances are I disagree with it.

Finally, I'd also like to thank my fans who have supported me in my quest for inappropriate comments to common posts. Fans like starman, rickey, turtle, Rumor, and Gossamer: my pants off to you.


And now some blasts from the past:

(cue Green Day's Good Riddance)

Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go

So make the best of this test, and don't ask why
It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time

I hope you had the time of your life.

So take the photographs, and still frames in your mind
Hang it on a shelf in good health and good time

Yep.

Oh, and by the way it was clearly established here that you can't post threads about yourself either.

That still sounds like a different case. cash is full of it since it was about BPR.

And this would have made a terrible PM.

Somewhat ironically, I keep reading Dakarʒ as 'Dakarz', but Dakarз looks like 'Dakar-3'. Oh well, I'll just have to use Дакарз.

Agh, no! Every time I see your posts from now on, I’ll be reading your name as “Dakarzh”, instinctively reading ‘ʒ’ as its IPA value

I’m not sure exactly how the Queen’s Bench would be involved with you and Dakarzh having make-up sex, but the idea intrigues me...

Well, on behalf of all of DakarCorp, we apologize that this American based company is not internationally sensitive at this time. We ask that you bear with us.
