Count to a Million

[Ian Wolf]

I'm not sure.

17,463

 

[Neil.T]

Right. I'm going to take it upon myself to correct the number, but in the style of an emotionally charged revenge scene from a shounen action anime.

Here goes:

17,464...

And...


This is for TACHI!!!!!

OooooRYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!


17,465.


(Tachi. We will never forget you. )

 

[Ian Wolf]

Now that was an epic post. ^_^

17,466.

 

[Neil.T]

I'm exhausted after that. Way too intense.

17,467.

 

[Ian Wolf]

Anyone would be exhausted.

17,468.

 

[Neil.T]

(Huff... Puff...)

Y-Yeah...

Se... Sev...

17,469.

 

[Ian Wolf]

Need a glass of water?

17,470.

 

[Neil.T]

Yeah, please.

(Glug, glug, glug)

Aah, that's better. I feel like I could run 17,471 miles now.

 

[Ian Wolf]

Really, I think you could run at least 17,472.

 

[Neil.T]

It's that last extra mile that's the killer. Okay, deal.

I'm not running 17,473, though.

 

[Ian Wolf]

Shame - I'm sure you could run at least 17,474.

 

[Neil.T]

Actually, you've given me an idea for a new event for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics:

"17,475-mile Super Marathon".

 

[Ian Wolf]

With a minimum of 17,476 participants.

 

[Neil.T]

One fewer than one of the other new events:

17,477-man Royal Rumble.

 

[Ian Wolf]

Imagine a 17,478 hit combo.

 

[Neil.T]

Genius! Killer Instinct and your 64-hit combo, eat your heart out.

Would Mortal Kombat-style fatality moves be allowed? There could be as many as 17,479 deaths (including two innocent spectators).

 

[Ian Wolf]

No! We should come down hard on those who cause the deaths of spectators. I say we should send them to jail for 17,480 years.

 

[Neil.T]

Get over here!

Even if they only rip their vanquished opponent's head off with the spine still attached like Sub-Zero?

(But not in the Super Nintendo version: they feared offending 17,481 squeamish players.)

 

[Ian Wolf]

I've said this at least 17,482 times. I have no problems with the participants getting injured, but we most protect the spectators.

 

[Neil.T]

You're right.

By the way, don't you feel like we're getting left to do all the work here?

Does everyone else hate this thread as much as @ayase does?

17,483.
