Dr. Isis Makes 10,000th Aard Comment

Dr. Isis made the 10,000th comment here on Aard earlier today! Flatteringly, she said that I had made half the women on the Internet lose their shit. I simply know not my own strength.

It took two years and almost ten months to get to 10,000. As her prize, I hereby offer to call the good doctor trans-Atlantic at a time to be agreed on and sing her the Queen song (naturally) of her choice.

*howls* "I was just a skinny lad, never knew no good from bad, but I knew life before I left my nursery..."
