A Century of iposts

Yay! Huzzah! Woot?

This marks the 100th ipost! (At least we think it does. We're not good at counting.) If this blog were a human and posts were years, we probably wouldn't know where we were or why there was so much drool on our shirt, but luckily, that's a ridiculous thought and 100 posts only means that ipost | upost is just getting started.

Big thanks goes to everyone who has sent in suggestions for iposts, banners, and thoughts, but especially to those people who upost and contribute from day to day. ipost | upost would not exist if it wasn't for its contributors.

In honor of this milestone, we are posting links to the 3 most popular iposts as well as the 3 most unpopular, reviled, and generally ignored iposts*. Maybe, just maybe, after this little plug, they'll only be the 2nd or 3rd most hated iposts. Hmmm?

Get your head in the gutter.

*Special Note: If one looks way back to the first iposts, one may find that many of them have no uposts (comments). They only appear that way because in the switchover to the Intense Debate commenting system, some comments were lost in limbo. The comments are still out there somewhere, but they can't be viewed without uninstalling Intense Debate.

Happy hundred!

i post | u post is brilliant and I hope you keep it going. I can't wait to see how it evolves over the next 100 posts.

Thank YOU, mb, for being one of our most faithful contributors. ipost | upost plans on losing all these ugly scales and claws and growing some feathers and a beak over the next 100 posts. We're talking major evolution. We're just waiting for the mutation that will make it all happen.
Technically, evolution doesn't apply to biology, so that's a bad analogy. The devil hid dinosaur bones. http://cache.spreadshirt.com/image.php?type=image...
No. Science clearly shows that the dinosaurs hid Satan's bones. Then Darwin dug them up and danced on them. http://www.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve...
I hate to digress, but speaking of Satan, I must share my favorite definition from the 2008 Mensa Invitational (the Washington Post's Mensa Invitational asks readers to take any word from the dictionary, and alter it by adding, subtracting, or changing one letter, and supply a new definition). My fave: "Beelzebug (n.): Satan in the form of a mosquito, that gets into your bedroom at three in the morning and cannot be cast out."
