70,000 Comments!


So my stats counter says
this blog has now received

70,000 comments

since its start almost 
14 years ago in 2008.

Yowza!

Thanks to everyone who has
ever commented over the years!

And special thanks to
all you regular commenters! 



I read and enjoy every comment
that is published!

And I appreciate that all you commenters
are so civil and well-behaved.

Your comments are always 
intelligent, thought-provoking,
insightful and often very funny!

Yes, every once in awhile,
there will be a minor
brouhaha or contretemps
in the comments section --

But even that is not without its fun.


Of course, it's pretty much 
always the same commenter
behind the flying fur (so to speak)
and I think we all know who that is.


But even HRH's contributions towards
reaching this 70,000 milestone
are appreciated!

  11. the comments are key to good post. They show your post relates well with the audience. I think it's like laughs for a comedian.

  12. Well done! You are such a faithful commenter yourself you deserve all plaudits. (I nearly wrote pundits. Words on the brain today.)

  16. Here's another one. I know, not very funny. But HRH told me that I must save all my mirth and smirks for her posts. And who am I to argue with the queen?

    Congrats on 14 year of comments.

  24. That is an incredible amount of comments and interactions you have on the blog. It is something I look up to as well. I cannot imagine that there could be an outbreak of argument in comment sections at all. I thought spam filter would kick in ruining every participant's life.

  25. An amazing number. Well achieved.

  26. Congrats on your blogging milestone, Debra! It's always a pleasure to sharpen my rapier-like wit on HRH and I must admit, grudgingly, that she is a worthy jouster, LOL!

  27. You are welcome! I feel that i should be saying thanks. I love visiting this place. I always appreciate the altars you make and the things i learn. I appreciate the links i find here.
    Without She Who Seeks, i would never be aware of Canadian Hockey Hair Gods, and i would never have made acquaintance with Yellowdoggranny and Spo-reflections, among many others.
    You are very welcome.

  33. Happy 70,000 Comments to you! It is, of course, because your posts are (to quote someone I've recently read) "intelligent, thought-provoking, insightful and often very funny".

  34. There is a counter for comments? Never knew that.

  36. I love to see success in others especially when it comes to writing. I guess that's because I hold writing so dear to my own heart. So CONGRATULATIONS on a job well done and keep writing...always!

    ReplyDelete
  37. Well done and congratulations!

  38. Holy cow! 70k comments, and counting?!

    Congrats on doing 14 years of consistently way above excellent blogging.

    I find it very hard to have a constructive conversation in blogs these days simply because of the very necessary need to moderate, but the few that I've seen have be very Canadian like in the give and take.

    Again Congrats to you and HRH for 14 years of blogging.

  40. LOL. I was reading your post then I started wondering who the eff was the offensive commenter...HAHA--of course, HRH!

    ReplyDelete
  41. Woot! Woot! You are the best, after all. Tell HRH I said so too!

    ReplyDelete
  42. "I read and enjoy every comment that is published." Since you moderate so well, you've probably reached 80k comments once you factor in the trolls and spam. Lol
    Thank you for consistently posting content worthy of comment! And for always commenting on everyone else's blogs as well. Blogger Supreme!
