    Happy Thirty-Tooth, Derek!





    It's always a pleasure, Derek.

    Many happy returns, and here's hoping for many more years of MatchCut dialogue.

    Happy Birthday, Derek. Unlike the rest of these guys, I think you're barely tolerable, and actually bring down the quality of posting on the board.

    Have a great birthday!

    Derek, as a character, is not very likeable.

    But nonetheless, happy birthday.

    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    It's a good thing that neg rep is gone, because I seem to have started a trend that would probably deserve it.

    You guys suck. It's a good thing I don't mind spending time with unlikeable characters!

    But seriously, thanks for the thread and the Kenneth Anger-inspired cake.
