The Pointless Announcements thread just doesn't do it for when we want to boast our accomplishments. They are NOT pointless!

Put 'em here. Little shit, big shit. Stuff that makes you beam with pride.

I'm starting.

I just sent off the final payment of an old debt that has been weighing me down for over two years. I am the shit.

What have you accomplished today or recently?

I killed a half hour browsing TFP, waiting for lunch.

In doing so, I looked busy AND avoided a meeting that would have gone over lunch.

I managed to navigate to a suburb I'd never been, with 6 legs round trip, including a sprint for the 6th leg and making it!

Great shit!

Leto: It's obvious you are destined for politics or a position of great power!

Bacchanal: Nice. Knock 'em dead!

fresnelly: Please don't say you got the last Draculaura!

WR: What's with the teaser!?!? More!

amonkie: Excellent!

Very motivating, guys. It's very inspiring to hear these things, 'specially when you're having a down day.

Place: At my buddy's bachelor party in a titty bar.

I really didn't want to go as I've never really enjoyed them all that much. So I told my buddies my goal was to have a stripper sit on my lap naked and talk to me for as long as possible without spending a dime on her. So naturally I get the hottest/freshest girl there, and keep in mind this is a Saturday night at a bachelor party... prime money making hours.

I got her to sit on my lap and talk for 2 hours and 45 minutes before her manager made her get off of me.

THAT my friends is conversation skills.

I stood my ground in a scenario that has always caused me to give in in the past and said NO!

Very very proud of myself!

I got paid for a cartoon. Then I landed (3) free Xbox games to review... games that are not even available for sale yet.

I'm kind of a big deal.

Don't get the reference. Sorry haven't watched VH1 in almost a decade.
