When it hits 100 million, you should celebrate by closing your account.

If one were to actually edit crap, shills, trolls and delete posts, you'd probably actually arrive at ten.

So Angron wins the internet today for posting Boards' 100 millionth message. He may have missed Bale's goal but he didn't miss out on a piece of Boards history. Congrats sir.

100,000,000 not out
