Countdown from 100,000

[Arcadia]

97449 times I'm sorry I asked, because now I'd kill to get my hands on some. Sounds wonderful.... *sigh*

 

97448 times I checked the pantry for chocolate I know isn't there, because I won't buy it, because I'll eat it.

 

97447 things I need to distract me before I end up at the store buying chocolate.

 

97.446 degrees outside, I don't feel like doing anything except lying around eating chocolate.

 

97445 self-pitying tears.

[Inge l-w]

97,444 times, it used to be a Rowntree brand, but now it is sold under the Nestle umbrella. Maybe it has another name over the pond!

97,443 times, I can just picture Mycroft and Sherlock fighting over the soft and hard centres of this particular selection as youngsters.

97,442 times, heat better than wind: we couldn't have a proper swim because it was blowing half a gale!

97,441 times, I shall be grateful to whatever Providence is still listening to me, that I rejected Italy as a summer destination.

97,440 times, the loss of children in an earthquake is more shattering than the event itself!

[Arcadia]

97439 times I have to agree with that.

 

97438 more tears on their behalf.

[SherlockedCAMPer]

97.437 times I agree with the above

 

97.436 times I'm mentally kicking myself for not getting back on this thread sooner because there's...

 

97.435 bits of good content on this thread alone.

[Van Buren Supernova]

97.434 times I wonder how pot brownie tastes like.

 

97.433 actually no, I have zero curiosity about how cigarettes, drugs and friends taste like. I shall be nice to my healthy body so that it stays with me for a long time.

 

97.432 times I remember After Eight mints but I eat it anytime, as, anytime is after eight. :p

 

97.431 possibilities other chocolates that I remember are called: dark, not sweet, bloody sweet, I hate that, crappy ones, the one with peanut, the ugly but yummy one, the pretty but yucky, the unfortunate ugly and yucky, and so on.

 

97.430 yeses that this thread is for hiding, the world sucks less here.

 

97.429 times I gladly provide my help for anyone who needs kicking. :p

 

97.428 times John tries to prevent Archie from peeking into the hat box.

 

98.427 times John thanks someone for liking his potato. (Uh..uh.. don't think outside the box guys)

 

98.426 times Sherlock threatens John with Cluedo.

 

98.425 possibilities Mycroft actually looks forward to deduction game with Sherlock.

 

98.424 times I cringe when Sherlock sniffs the offending bubble of the train guy's hat.

 

98.423 times I am grateful that digital entertainment hasn't invented cross dimension smelling technology yet.

[Arcadia]

97422 moments of horror when I saw the count, until I realized that VBS had type 98 instead of 97 about halfway through her post.

 

97421 giggles as a result.

 

97420 times I cringe at the offending bobble too, but it's still one of my favorite scenes.

 

97419 times Sherlock makes a deduction by sniffing something.

 

97418 times Sally Donovan planted limburger cheese on the crime scene just to get back at Sherlock.

 

97417 times Lestrade and John have a good laugh over that.

 

97416 times Sherlock fails to see the humor.

[Inge l-w]

97,415 times it is so easy to push the wrong button and miscalculate, but it's two strikes against VBS now, unfortunately.

97,414 times, Limburger smells just fine compared to some Corsican goat cheeses that can even repel flies!

97,413 times Sherlock has used tactile evidence in his search for clues, starting in SiP.

97,412 times Dr Watson is certain they are all unhygienic, but keeps his mouth shut.

97,411 times Mycroft would have disinfected his hands, his suit and his umbrella after a visit to 221B.

97,410 times Anthea might have suggested disinfecting the car after one of Dr Watson's trips in it, also.

[Arcadia]

97409 things on my mind, but none of them to do with Sherlock, so I'll leave off here.

[Van Buren Supernova]

97.408 excuses that my miscalculation happened because I time-travelled in between the counters in the same post.

 

97.407 geez Inge. I am very sure that I have more than two strikes. Don't short-change me..! :p

 

97.406 curiosities about what would happen if I had 3 strikes, sooo..

 

98.405 seconds to wait.

[Arcadia]

98.404 seconds later......

[Inge l-w]

97,403 times, in many board games, three fouls force you out of the game, to watch from the sidelines.

97,402 times, the Sherlock photos being released are weird to say the least.

97,401 times, moderators playing games? Very droll!

97,400 times, there's always the 'edit' button.

[Arcadia]

97399 times I've used the edit button.

97398 times I should have, but didn't catch my error (I assume. )

97397 moderators over the years, but only one cool enough to play games!

[Van Buren Supernova]

97.396 mistakes are not to be edited, for the next posts to make sense. If we edited that, your accusation wouldn't make sense. See, I got your back.

 

97.395 fun board games I had played without the three strike rules. Some requires only one foul and player is dead.

 

97.394 questions, so if I couldn't play because of 3 strikes and moderator shouldn't play, how long do you need to finish this thread with remaining players? :p You sure?

 

97.393 reasons I like drolly cool playful moderator.

 

97.392 times I think I read this in forum's regulation before, that member shouldn't discuss/comment on moderator's action, something along that line. Uh oh, I think you are in deep sh*t. XD

[Arcadia]

97391 times I'm too lazy to enforce the rules anyway, so who cares. :p

 

97390 years it would take to finish this countdown alone.

 

97389 years it's going to take us anyway!

 

97388 years is what it feels like it's taking to get to the next episode of Sherlock.

 

97387 laughs the Moftisses are having at our expense.

[Inge l-w]

97,386 times, I never discuss moderators' decisions, merely query their playfulness.

97,385 times, participating in any game is always done for fun.

97,384 times, this thread will never be finished before S4 airs, so we might as well banter.

97,383 times, there will be repercussions for every major character in it.

97,382 times, if it turns downright nasty, I shall go back to my Brett safety blanket.

97,381 times, they say it's dark, and then they bring out laughably bad promotion photos.

97,380 times, I maintain it's the perspective.

[Arcadia]

97379 times I insist it must be Photoshopped, because, quite frankly, we have nothing else to quibble about! :d

 

97378 pieces of litter on the floor.

 

97377 times Mrs. H lectures Sherlock about making such a mess.

 

97376 she ends up picking up after him.

 

97375 of the items end up back on the floor again (at least there's progress!)

[johnspec]

97374 why do i like to hide in the shadows after a little bit.

[Arcadia]

97373 times I've wondered the same thing. :p

[johnspec]

97372 maybe it's because life get's in the way.

 

[SherlockedCAMPer]

97.371 times the busy season has arrived for Johnspec

[Van Buren Supernova]

97.370 times I don't know what you guys are talking about and I'm afraid/too hesitant to check S4 threads.

 

97.369 times life may get in the way, Johnspec, but you still have to bake cakes for me to steal because as what Inge said, I can't bake one (although it's not true when I am in my human form once in blue moon).

 

97.368 times Lestrade grows sideburns.

[Arcadia]

97367 clues in the S4 thread.

97366 of them are red herrings.

97365 times we guess wrongly which ones they are.

[Inge l-w]

97,364 times, hang in there, Johnspec, it's just twelve years of solitary confinement or imprisonment with the general population, then you graduate and go on to have fun as a student!

97,363 times, fun times lie ahead for mine, since they are about five years younger, give or take!

97,362 times, Sherlock craziness helps in real life, too.

97,361 times, the holidays are over, nose back to the grindstone!

97,360 times, hope the American members enjoy Labour Day, today!

[Arcadia]

97359 minutes spent not laboring, today.

97358 times I could wish every day was like this.

[johnspec]

97357 times i'm going to be gone wit life getting in my way once again.
