Yeah, but you can't put cartoons in reviews.

Are we talking capital X or lower-case x? If capital, that's 01011000000 reviews (far more than possible) and if lower-case it's 01111001000 (even more impossible!). Either way, that's over 1 billion reviews, so I'd be pretty interested in that feat.

I care, X is quite far into the alphabet, which means when represented as a number in this context, must be quite large!

I'm with manofmystery. I write reviews when I'm inspired and have the time. Some of them I'm happy with and some of them suck the big one. I have had some good comments and many of them have been hijacked on youtube as well as a lot of blog sites. If someone gets something out them great. If they just sit there and gather dust then so be it. I just have fun writing them because it's an escape from this crazy world we have to contend with on a day-to-day basis.

I don't do reviews, so it makes me no nevermind.

I know what it means, that's why I don't write reviews. I'd be doing people a disservice with my "sounds good"/"sounds like garbage" review style. I'd rate more albums if we had a 1-10 scale (which would make more sense).
And I'll take the #1 spot on your list or no spot at all! Damnit!

You have totally misunderstood this. We are having a competition of being the saddest person in PA. Off course, by opening up this thread, barking like a flea ridden dog up the tree in the mistaken belief that the cat is there (it is just finishing your dinner and pissing in your bed), you have delivered a strong case for a place in the top ten saddest people in PA (AND pushing me out of that list). Besides of being sad and almost as miserable as you, the top reviewers is doing the community a big service. You know; helping other people. Go to your local library and ask a librarian what the phrase "helping other people" means.

That actually fits pretty well into my schedule. I am on vacation in Florida from May 12th to May 22nd. I start driving home from Florida on May 21st, so if the world is going to end, hopefully it ends early in the day to save me on the cost of gas.

Any hope of it being postponed, or the referee awarding us extra time?

Well played, but I don't care how much you care about the state of me not caring.
