Rave: Myself

A quick check shows that I have like 4,930 posts, which means I'm closing in on a milestone. I have to rave on myself, because I feel like I am the appendix of GRB. Yes, you can do without me, but why would you want to? And when I leave, it's very painful and people feel like they can't sit up straight.
You guys don't have to say, "thanks, Snayke for joining GRB and making our lives a whole lot better when I log on." And you don't even have to say, "you gave me quite a scare when you joked that you were moving back to Cards Talk." You don't have to say these things because I know them already.

Appendicitis typically begins with a vague pain in the middle of the abdomen often near the umbilicus (navel or "belly button"). The pain slowly moves to the right lower abdomen (toward the right hip) over 24 hours. In the classic description, abdominal pain is accompanied with nausea, vomiting, lack of appetite, and fever. All of these symptoms, however, occur in fewer than half of people who develop appendicitis. More commonly, people with appendicitis often have any combination of these symptoms.
* Symptoms of appendicitis may take 4–48 hours to develop. During this time, someone developing this condition may have varying degrees of loss of appetite, vomiting, and abdominal pain. Some may have constipation, diarrhea, or no change in bowel habits.
Yep, sounds about right.
I'm just jealous because I just surpassed 2,000 and didn't notice.

It's OK, I missed a couple of milestones at first.

So you're an unnecessary, vestigial structure that can cause death by infection? And your removal from certain people (forums?) seems to help, not hinder?
Congrats.

Hey, scientists now believe that the appendix is a storehouse for good bacteria.

You see, Gateway stores up good bugs, and just when you think the antibiotic mods have killed them off, he spews them out to keep the GRB body functioning properly. Good work, Gateway!

You are truly an individual, Snayke. I might be able to squeeze out a few more platitudes if you change your freakin avatar, because if I see him for 5,000 more posts, I'm pulling my hair out.

At least the avatar's not singing--for which I will be eternally grateful.

We gave our hearts
We gave it all
Flame in the fire
Burns forevermore
The sorrow in believing
Honor and truth
Gray spires climbing
Wrapped around our youth
CHORUS:
Peace in our life
Remember the call
Oh, a cheer for my brothers
Think of them all
Home of the brave
We'll never fall
The strength of our nation
Belongs to us all.
Time is the healing
of souls laid to rest
Peace is the virtue
Never forget
Tomorrow's an angel
Watching us all
Telling the people
she wraps around our hearts
