Well finally! Congratulations. It’s nice to have you join us. See. It’s not so bad in the mansion, after all! And now we can keep track of who you are and that means we can love you all the more.
Oh dear. I’m actually getting weepy thinking about this. Don’t tell anyone. But you have given so much to fluther over the years. Your questions. Your challenges. Your unique perspective! Shoot, you even told me I was your friend, once! But that’s not why I’m waxing prolix here. Oh, ok. It is, in part.
I enjoy your perspective and especially the thought you put into your questions. I think I would be honored to have you as a friend in real life. You’re prickly and intense, but you are smart and thoughtful, too, and that’s a winning combination.
Well, you had to lose your virginity at some point @zensky, and never has someone had so many people wishing for it too! (Freaky, eh?!)
So, congratulations to a man who is kind, fair, humorous, gentle, witty, who generously answers PMs, who frequently delivers a unique insight on a matter, and just as frequently calls it for what it is…
Your presence here seems fundamental.
Anyway, I know you are hating this, so chin up, mucker, it’ll be over in a week or two!
Yay @zensky !! This is going to be the best party ever! I’m glad you finally let us celebrate your 10K. You are one of the most interesting jellies here and I always find myself smiling or laughing at your posts. The mansion will be a better place now that you have arrived. Meet you out by the pool where the drinks are flowing, and a few of the jellies are swimming topless.
Man, I never thought I’d see the day! Good to have you in the mansion with us. Congratulations to a great jelly!
Dude, you’re like a legend around here, and I love your contribution to this place. Sometimes your stuff is deep and complex and makes one think, sometimes it’s really simple and casual, plus I love your sense of humor. Keep it up man, and cheers. :) luuuurvaaae yooouu! :D
Really? No really? Seriously? He made it to 10k without closing the account? @zensky have you run out of variations on the word zen? Whatever the case may be, I am glad to finally be able to welcome you to the 10k Mansion! Congratulations!
Congratulations to one of my all time favourite jellies. I cannot imagine what your real ‘lurve’ score is but I do know it would be astronomical! Well done @zensky.
@dabbler – that is, well, masterful and very zenly, has attributes of zenliness!
@zensky – I just don’t know what to say, are we friends today? if you are not annoyed with me, then congrats! Actually congrats even if you are annoyed!
Dude!
Do you have SS #‘s, passports and a DL for every Zen alias?
Damn, you’re clogging the system with all your zentrifical motion.
What happens if you come up missing, will there be Zen alerts posted on the highways?
Congrats on the 10k. I think your next name should be ” The mask of Zen.” lol
I’m shocked. I never thought this day would come… I don’t know what to say except congratulations!! You’re one of my favorites around here and I hope you stay around forever and ever. Keep on keepin’ on! :-)
@zensky I never thought I’d see this day. Congratualtions on taking the most roundabout, pointless point filled path yet conceived to reach the 10K mansion.
Glory-oskies!!! I never thought I’d see this day—congratulations! I’ve followed your reincarnations and general avoidance of the mansion since I was a young pup lurking here. I shall raise a special glass in your honor today, Zen. Peace to you!
@zensky I saw the posting about the 10K but did not believe it could be true OR that you would still be here in this incarnation a day later. I am stunned, amazed, and delighted! Although I must admit to missing SeaZen as he was so much sharper and wittier . . . :)
I must apologize for showing up so late and without any beer. But I’m here now, so let the party continue.
I finally got the workman to finish installing the 200 seat stadium-style theater installed next to the rec room at the mansion. For our first viewing, we of course will be hosting a marathon run of Star Trek the Next Generation. First the TV shows, then the movies. I got This Guy (only not with this hair) to do some warm up before the show starts, and he graciously agreed to bring along his guest as well. She thought it would be fun because she’s never seen any episodes of STNG. Oh, and did I mention that each seat in the theater has its own replicator? So if you want popcorn, nachos or Earl Grey hot, all you gotta do is ask. And we got you this special Seat for your movie viewing pleasure. Hope you likey : )
After the show, You Know Who will be joining all of the Fluther gang in a singalong. Oops! I pressed the wrong button, I meant This Chap
Isn’t it though! The athleticism it takes to appear to be THAT bad! I love it. My daughter was a level10 gymnast at one time…she could do aerials on the balance beam (which gave me heart attacks….I couldn’t watch.) I thought she was going to die laughing at it!
@Dutchess_III – it always grates on me a bit when males ridicule what women do. Males do not compete on the balance beam (I don’t think) but there this guy is dressed up like a female and poking fun at a highly skilled female pursuit. I know, I am very sensitive, perhaps overly so, but that is the way I feel.
Truly, it’s a paraody, and a well-done one. It’s hardly a ridicule of what women do. It seems to come from the greatest admiration of the challenges of the beam and well illuminates what many of us of all genders imagine their own predicament might be if attempting to perform on it. if anything it’s a poke at the rarified air that only super-elite athletes of all stripes share.
