Biggest of tentacly hugs, entirely devoid of sting, I promise! to you Marina! “Wit and Wisdom” sounds cliched, but you absolutely personify the phrase… So many of us have learned because of you, understood because of you, and laughed because of you. Here’s a bottle of Dom, let the dancing begin!
Congratulations! I noticed this is one of the few questions where you are not the first person to reply. 40K! What an amazing achievement! Why don’t you and the other newly minted 40K’er go out to dinner. Our treat! Find a nice Seafood place.
It’s my very great pleasure to congratulate you on this milestone, @Marinelife. You are an inspiration, Thank you for all you give to so many here every day.
Congratulations! You’re one of my favorites around here, you’re always kind and willing to lend a helping hand to those who need it, and I often enjoy your witty and intelligent answers. You were one of the very first that I talked to upon my arrival at the site, and I’m so glad I’ve gotten to enjoy reading your quips these several years! I hope you’re around for quite a long time, and congratulations on reaching such a great milestone! :D
Congratulations! I love reading @Marinelifes posts as she most generally says what I want to say, but always says it better. I hope to be able to meet up with you IRL someday. You are truly one classy lady that I want to meet.
CONGRATULATIONS! This is just too awesome! 40K CHEERS TO AN AWESOME JELLY.

You guys are making me tear up.
Holy Cow! I wasn’t ready! I don’t have anything planned. WOW its a major celebration. Do we offer wood, silver, gold or somebody as a sacrifice? Oh, no Wundayatta also has reached 40k, its an epidemic. Big Hugs and Congrats to Marinelife.
I ran out of Pina Coladas at the last Party but I do have some Mango Pie to sacrifice. It is really light and tasty. Oh, wait I have some Whiskey and Rum.
Wow, the moving guys are getting quite a workout today – moving people into mansions, moving some out and into even bigger mansions, and on and on and… Craziness!
@marinelife, you’ve long been one of my favorite jellies. If I could swap my brain with any other jelly for a day, I’d pick yours. Congrats on this great achievement!
Congratulations Marinelife! I always appreciate the sensible advice you give people. Obviously, a lot of other people appreciate it, too, and we all throw lurve at you in thanks. I hope you are pleased and excited by all the hoopla.
Congrats, again. Let me raise a toast to you—the woman whose answers keep fluther humming along!
:) Congratulations to a most deserving jelly! I am so grateful for all of your wisdom, and compassion, and of course your friendship. We are lucky to have you.
Yay, this makes me so happy to see you make it to 40k. Since my first days here, you have been one of my favorite jellies, and one from which I have certainly gained so very much from your thoughtful, insightful and wise input. I’m looking forward to 40k more for you…no pressure. :) A huge congratulations and cheers to you!!!
@marinelife is awesome. Congrats on 40K to you! I don’t thin I’ve ever read a post of yours that I didn’t enjoy or giggle or think “Right here is a very wise person.”
Most jellies are just a screen-name to me. Some develop little personalities through there consistent answers.
@Marinelife however, swims with a very small group of jellies who are almost real to me. I can’t imagine Fluther without you and am a better person for all your advice and insight.
Oodles of congratulations and a big ole bear hug for you.
