Hit 10,000 posts on this forum last Tuesday and it got me thinking

I was scrolling through my profile and saw I hit 10,000 posts here. That number caught me off guard because I remember joining back in 2018 just to ask one question about what if the Confederacy won the Civil War. Now I've got this whole library of alternate history scenarios I've typed out over the years. My favorite thread is still the one where someone asked what if the Library of Alexandria never burned and we ran with it for like 300 replies. It's wild to think how much time I've spent imagining worlds that never happened while my real life keeps moving forward. The guy who answered my first post is still active here too, he's up to like 18,000 posts now. Has anyone else ever looked at their post count and felt weird about how many hours that represents?

Is it really that deep though? It's just posts on a forum.

300 replies about a library fire" sounds like the most productive procrastination I've heard all week.

I mean yeah thats funny but also 300 replies is a lot of people just yapping about something that probably happened years ago. Idk maybe its just me but the internet loves to turn nothing into something.
