@TheBreadmonkey @Nickiquote /me whimpers “has it really only been 3 years?” 🥹
Time slows down when you're with old Ben. It's a punishment for all of your transgressions.
Huzzah! That means we both get to do one crime of our choosing without any repurcussuons!
@TheBreadmonkey i guess mine from November 2022 as well but just over at sfba.social, my first redoubt in The FediSphere
@TheBreadmonkey Looks like mine was on the 3rd and I didn't notice, so thanks for prompting me to look! Happy Fediversary to you!
@TheBreadmonkey Happy Birpday! Mine was yesterday, I just realised 😁
@TheBreadmonkey hay!
Today is *my* 3 year #fediversary too!
You’re pretty good at this, I’m just riding your coattails.
Happy day to you! No, you!
Thrilled we're both here sharing this thing together. Now we've been through 3 years of this I can finally tell you that you remind me a lot of my friend, so in my mind we're already firm friends. 🙌💃
@TheBreadmonkey
Yea us!!
(If this is a duplicate- blame technology. If it’s bad etiquette late- also blame technology.)
@TheBreadmonkey Dear sweet summer child. Just a Fedi bairn. Some of us old hands were here up to four days before you.
Tell us what it was like in those days!? Oh please, please tell us your stories?!
@TheBreadmonkey Everybody was slightly miserable, posting about how this place was missing an indefinable something, maybe an account about hating running and also how much running makes them feel better, and which changes their display name to a different pun on their real name every two days max, something like that maybe.
I AM FROM THE FUTURE. ALL IS LOST UNLESS YOU DO EXACTLY AS I SAY. YOU WILL NEED TO COME WITH ME AND SIGN UP TO MASTODON ONE DAY BEFORE NICK. Save the world? Wha-oh YES THIS WILL DEFINITELY SAVE THE WORLD.
If I ever manage to conquer time travel the first thing I'm doing is going back to my past self and force them at laserpoint to sign up one day before you so I can be the one with all the glory
@davep @TheBreadmonkey Eldritch Dave has entered the chat.
@TheBreadmonkey happy congrats Ben. All power to your elbow.
@TheBreadmonkey finally got round to checking and transpires we share the same third fediversary. I’m so happy.

@TheBreadmonkey happy fediversary, Ben! 🥳
I swear this season I'm gonna be different
@TheBreadmonkey @maxleibman Jim Hemson's The Bread Monkey Babies? Or The Bread Monkey GO!
An even grittier reimagining
@TheBreadmonkey @maxleibman I hope they don't replace the lead. He grows on you after a while.
Gruesome murder in the first episode. Robot bees.
Sounds like a great improvement. 10,000 fresh Beenoids should up the toot quantity.
I can already feel the...

@TheBreadmonkey Happy Fedday! Imagine a new user signing up and hatching from their pupae and BECOMING BEN. It’s mind blowing! 🤯
@TheBreadmonkey Just like Kosh from out of Babylon 5, you mystical space alien.
@TheBreadmonkey
Woot-woot! Yay!!
Now that I think about it, must be pretty much exactly three years for me, too
@TheBreadmonkey and may I add, it just would not be the same without you. You are the sun that shines on the Fediverse. You are the moon that exposes its buttocks to the Fediverse. ❤️💙❤️💙❤️
@TheBreadmonkey oooh it's mine too! Though I'm pretty sure you were one of the first people I followed. How does that work?
@TheBreadmonkey yay, my beige robe has been located. Let the rituals begin.
@TheBreadmonkey
🎉🎇 Happy Fediversary 🎇🎉
Blimey, 3 years. In dog years it's something like 15 isn't it?
And you've managed to hold on to some of your sanity? No mean feat.
Party on Fedi friend! Party on!
@TheBreadmonkey happy fediday! It's genuinely lovely that you're here and we are very grateful for you, you're ace 💚
This is too actually nice. Thank you. I appreciate you millions and am glad to be here with you. If you ever leave I will never post again. I'll go and live in an underground cave and scrawl my madness on the walls in blood, like nature intended. Found in centuries time, read aloud and summoning me back from my eternal slumber as an all-powerful demon, bringing about the end times. That's what'll happen if you ever leave.
@TheBreadmonkey nah, because even if any of us were to leave here, which isn't going to happen obv, working on the TCP/IB (The Cave Protocol/In Blood) transmission layer, THERE WILL BE NO ESCAPE
@TheBreadmonkey also I'm still a huge fan of yoghurt pots on strings, so we can collectively work something out I'm sure
@TheBreadmonkey just imagine billions of yoghurt pots on billions of bits of actual string criss-crossing the globe IT WOULD BE BEAUTIFUL
@TheBreadmonkey actually, give that a long wanky title and call it Art, and some Foundation somewhere would totally give us a million pounds for that.
...
Actually. Hm. Ok I need another coffee, and to call some people, but will get back to you with a co-creator credit and share of profits*.
*profits in this case, as I have learned, meaning "not always having to pay for your own transport", but it's the thought that counts probably, why should artists need to eat, right? But also the amount of UTTER SHITE which does get funded never ceases to astound me, so maybe the point is to stop caring about actually making meaningful art and just putting a bunch of yoghurt pots on string in the Turbine Hall is in fact the actual way to fame and riches??
@TheBreadmonkey Happy Fediversary!
@TheBreadmonkey 3 years in the heat and pressure of the shitposting mines will do that to you.
At this point I feel more like crude oil
@TheBreadmonkey congrats! I have two more days to go to hit that particular milestone
@TheBreadmonkey ha! Mine was four days ago. Feels like forever!
Happy belated. May all good things happen for you. X
@TheBreadmonkey *begins playig air guitar*
duhn duhn duhn duhn duhn duhnnn duhn duhn
🎶they say it's your birthday!
It's my birthday too.
Oof. Wrong song.
Happy Mastoversary, Ben. ☺️
@TheBreadmonkey Happy fediversary. I guess my third is around now as well. 🎂✨
Hurrah! I'm glad you're here. X
That's the noise I make whenever I touch some boobs
This is sadly a joke - I never get to touch any boobs
@TheBreadmonkey @amiserabilist Whereas I have magnificent boobs and no one ever gets to touch them
Travesty. Have you considered offering it up as a service. Like therapy. You could be saving lives.
@TheBreadmonkey @amiserabilist When I was about 17 I allowed - my bf was OK with this - a 15 year old boy to investigate them with me topless as his first contact with breasts. That was sort of like therapy
@TheBreadmonkey Whoah! Mine was yesterday and I missed it. Here I sit, cakeless.
I'll have some for you, don't worry.
@TheBreadmonkey @PrinceOfDenmark
I read that as a threat, out of context, in Ready Winstone's voice
@TheBreadmonkey
Mine's next week ...
Congrats!
Lol. Thanks Eddie. You make this place worth hanging around for. X ❤️
Was this premeditated football anthem making?
Admire you much, brother. ❤️
@TheBreadmonkey Congrats! Mine is on the 12th. We should have cake or something!
Already did. When you get people start asking why you were acting so strangely the other day you'll know why. Why, when you went round the corner of the building, you appeared from the other corner of the building wearing entirely different clothes and with your hair different. But then when you went back around the corner of the building you reappeared from the original corner of the building in the clothes you were originally wearing and with the same hair. That's me. I'm the other corner person.
Thanks mate. I'm only staying here until I've collected all the data on you and can take over your life. Just remind me what your PIN number is again?....
