I don’t know. Someone probably. And also me. I am guessing that literally zero people that are reading this blog right now, read the first 4 posts I wrote that day. You know why I know that? Because the day I wrote my first post, only three people read it, and it was people that I worked with and they all don’t even read anymore (or at least read this anymore). It has been 5 years on this blog, so I would like to wish myself and all the contributors to this blog(also only myself) a long exhaustive sigh.
First thing you can do is take a look at the complete cluster luck this blog was 5 years ago by clicking here, here, here or here.
It has been 5 long years on this blog, and I would like to reflect upon all the things I have learned in those five years.
And that’s it.
It has been 5 long years on this blog, and I would like to look at my bank account and see how much I have earned from this blog.
Checking bank statement…..$0.00. Wow, that is some amazing amount of zero dollars. The cash I’ve made could literally not fund an orphanage, totally not buy me 4 Lamborghini’s, absolutely not buy me a new house with a new large TV, along with the media room worthy to hold the amazing TV. There are all kinds of not things like an infinity pool, a boat that will drive me around my pool, and a sink to put all my bitter tears.
In order to celebrate this unmomentous occasion, I will be sending out all kinds of prizes that will be equal to the value of all that money I earned from this blog. So get ready for some air being sent your way. Also, you can send money to me, because let’s be honest, I’m the one that has provided you all this underwhelming content and should be rewarded for my ineptitude.
So, send away, and good luck in winning some air, carbon dioxide, a leaf, some grass, dirt, some carbon, or any other thing that is easily grabbable from your desk at work or your sink at home. Bitter luck to you!
ARRRRGGGHHHHH
Bitter 5 years of nothing Ben
Happy blogiversary Ben! I’m approaching my 6th year here on WordPress and got a lot of zeros in my bank account from my contributions too, which is why I am taking my talents elsewhere.

I think it is time for WordPress to start paying us for using their service, at least when we get past 5 years right? We’ve been loyal for so long, we deserve a piece of the pie.

Glad to see that you are still here, Ben. Also glad to see that you are still bitter after all these years. Think of the bitterness that is ahead of you in the future? It’s the gift that keeps on giving. Now, if you will excuse me, I must go outside and rake the yard to send you some leaves. Happy Anniversary!
