Can I just put an answer down to see if I just get a GA for answering?

Greatest user name ever. You may have joined Fluther a month after I did, but I’m in no way jealous that you beat me to 10k. No way, whatsoever.

Grr.

Also (I can post twice since this is my thread) if any of you ever want to talk about brains, you know where to look! <3

rooeytoo's avatar

Congrats and kudos to another member of the big 10!!!

evelyns_pet_zebra's avatar

Welcome to the Big 10K room. Fortunately, several of the former 10kers hit the 20K mark, so we have more room to set plates of pancakes on the frizzer. @AstroChuck stole the syrup though, so I hope you brought your own.

AstroChuck's avatar

Niki should have beaten us all. Congratulations to a long time and valuable member of the collective!

Dog's avatar

Adding my own small voice to this big celebration.

Jeruba's avatar

Well done, @nikipedia. Your excellent track record has translated into a big number. Congratulations.

jrpowell's avatar

Dammit… I was going to be the one to post this question. I noticed she was at 9977 earlier. I went as far as writing up a post that was really witty and had topless pics of rich in it. But nooooooo. I take a nap and hipster beats me to it. FML.

And congrats.

I’m going to go outside and pull the transmission from my neighbors car. I’m a dick like that.

Bluefreedom's avatar

Congratulations and well deserved!

Cupcake's avatar

Congrats @nikipedia!! Your well considered, scientific answers are always welcome!

forestGeek's avatar

Yay, congrats Niki! I always like reading your answers.

marinelife's avatar

Nikipedia: unique! Congratulations to a wonderful, long-time member of the collective.

What I like best about your Fluther posts and questions is your passion and your challenging way to thinking and of tackling life.

I always learn from you because you often take a different approach to things than I would. You always make me think.

You also often make me laugh, and I see your warmth come through time and again too.

Hooray for one of my favorite jellies!

mangeons's avatar

Yes, yes, of course! Nikipedia is a very valued, unique, funny, and smart part of the collective. I am very proud of her for reaching 10k, and I wish her all the best in getting to 20!

jrpowell's avatar

I have touched her. But I think it kinda pissed her off. Really, I actually touched her. It was just her shoulder and I was drunk. Pretty sure it pissed her off.

nikipedia's avatar

@johnpowell: You could start a support group full of Men Who Have Touched my Shoulder While Drunk. I can give you some names. Really.

nikipedia's avatar

Except usually I’m the one who’s drunk.

jrpowell's avatar

A support group would make me feel less “special.”

jrpowell's avatar

Don’t forget that I really wanted a bacon cheeseburger at dinner and didn’t order one since you don’t eat meat.

Tink's avatar

@johnpowell How very thoughtful!

jrpowell's avatar

@Tink1113 :: I just wanted to touch her boobs. They are fantastic.

I walked away with a empty belly and empty hands.

loser's avatar

Way to go!!! We lurve you!!!

aprilsimnel's avatar

Now I want a bacon cheeseburger with onion rings and a chocolate milkshake.

eponymoushipster's avatar

@aprilsimnel we have a place, like a 10 minute walk from my apartment, awesome burgers, onion rings that are called “The Best You’ll Ever Have” and alcoholic milkshakes.

rooeytoo's avatar

@eponymoushipsterI just had a look and the burger does look great but I had completely forgotten about Martin’s Potato Rolls! I always loved them but haven’t had one in the 11 years since I’ve been here. Now I have to add them to my list of foods I really miss including but not limited to lebanon bologna, TastyKakes, American hot dogs, American bacon, American mayonnaise, Utz Barbque chips, Snyder’s pretzels, Pepperidge Farm bread and now Martin’s Potato Rolls. I may have to make a trip back soon just to eat.

eponymoushipster's avatar

@rooeytoo dude, that whole area (The Piazza) is killer for food. Tapas, mexican, italian, korean, burgers, a cheesecake diner, a pub, Portuguese and bolivian all within 5min of each other. and bowling!

augustlan's avatar

@eponymoushipster That place looks fantastic!

@rooeytoo Martins Potato Rolls are my favorite, too. Sounds like you need a care package from the US.

aprilsimnel's avatar

@eponymoushipster – Dammit, man, I’ve just lost ~22 lbs! I already fight the temptation that is Shake Shack!

I’m sorry, @nikipedia, no more talk of meat or meat-based products in your lovely, celebratory thread.

marinelife's avatar

@johnpowell That is my new definition of the sensitive man: “I really wanted a bacon cheeseburger at dinner and didn’t order one since you don’t eat meat.” : D

whatthefluther's avatar

Sorry I’m late….seems I have my legit meds out of sync with the recreational stuff and alcohol and I really couldn’t spare all those vials of blood I deposited at the doctor’s office yesterday and then I tried to keep up with @Blondesjon tossing beers during his radio show, but life can be….oops, there I go digressing before I even get to the point….sorry, I’m just a tangential old man, but where the hell did all the fucking questions come from in one day to put this one on page 4 already???

Ah, so it’s @nikipedia ‘s turn. I could be completely crazy, I guess (hey….I heard those “duhs”), but I’m going share how I see sweet niki. You know that Van Halen video for Hot for Teacher where the teacher at first has her hair up and glasses on with a loose sweater hiding a knock out figure and then transforms into a very hot babe? Some women are very capable of pulling off such a ruse. @sccrowell does it via the librarian look and I imagine niki doing it via the research lab look: perfectly white pressed lab coat, her hair up, glasses on, pencil resting on her ear, clipboard in hand. But upon leaving the lab setting, she ducks in a phone booth and well…...hell, I don’t know what she looks like (hey jp got any pics?), but based on her questions and answers on fluther I imagine her to be a super woman: obviously extremely bright, very fun and at times quite wild, probably extremely attractive….you know, the whole package. Some guys are intimidated by intelligent attractive women. To me they are so hot, that I…..oops, there I go again….this is not about me.

I do share a connection with niki. Having spent a couple of years in the microbiology/immunology labs at UCLA, killing a lot of mice and extracting cells for processing and study, I have a lot of respect for nikis graduate study and research goals. I discovered that such a path was not for me, but I was in awe of the dedication and drive exemplified by researchers and that makes niki a very, very special person in my book.

If I recall correctly, I first met niki when I got sucked into an unannounced social experiment of hers that may have gone amiss a bit. And coincidentally, my most recent exposure to a niki question, was one I also got sucked into, that being what makes oral sex good. Yes, her questions are always excellent and thought provoking and at times can be very inspirational and somewhat suggestive.

And, I think she the queen of the topic flags. Her questions are always clear and direct, but she lets loose with the topics, throwing in a “latte” or something else off the wall just to keep us on our toes. Her obvious delight in playing with the topics has resulted in me throwing in “a latte for niki” in the topics to my questions, when my old brain remembers, which, fortunately, has been most of the time.

To one of my favorite all-time jellies, CONGRATULATIONS @nikipedia on your 10K lurve milestone and admission to the 10K Lurve Lounge. I trust they serve lattes up there. If not, kindly let me know and I’ll personally see to it that your every latte desire is fulfilled, even if I have to make that damn monkey run back and forth to your favorite coffee shop and deliver them to you.

Sending lots of lurve….Gary/wtf

SuperMouse's avatar

@whatthefluther your posts in these threads ALWAYS make my day, of course your post in mine is my favorite, but they are all wonderful!

tiffyandthewall's avatar

congratulations (albeit a week late)! :DDDD

jlm11f's avatar

OMG! I can’t believe I missed your 10K milestone. You are a genius in so many ways and I love our AIM conversations :). I hope your test Qs went over well and I promise you that one of these days I am going to take you up on your offer to use the extra couch. <3

As for the guys that are wondering what she looks like – she is gorgeous!

Jude's avatar

Wow. Two weeks late!

Congrats!! And, what a clever jelly name, I must say!
