This will be my 3,103rd post. I'm rapidly approaching kilopi.
Is there anything I should do to prepare? Anything I should know?
All advice will be graciously accepted and critically ripped to shreds.
Thank you!

I held my breath and closed my eyes.
I took a drink.
I didn't know if it was day or night
I started kissin' everything in sight...
Keep going...
Wow, there's a term I haven't heard in a while.
1% Fun-n-games, but some of that is Mensa Test. More levity!![]()

I can supply you with ... options
When the inevitable kilopi is imminent, it is permitted in conscience to take the decision to refuse forms of appellation that would only secure a precarious and burdensome prolongation of count, so long as the normal derision due to a sick individual in similar cases is not interrupted.![]()
Look attentively to your right and to your left. If no obstacles are within sight, then proceed with caution.
Do nothing at this time. When you receive the communication respond with the value for the polarizability of solid carbon dioxide. Four significant figures, and be sure to round DOWN.
Then sit back and relax. It's quite a ride.
get out while you still can
How about the Golden Ratio? Must be worth a
few nods.
Hold on tight put your head between your legs and take a deep breath.
I thought it was part of hazing ritual.
First, coat your entire body with bear fat. If you don't have any bear fat, Crisco will do.
Next, memorize the first 1000 digits of pi (don't remove the fat while you do this).
Await further instructions.
What's weird, is the fourth layer is moose fat, and that doesn't seem to come off!
I have the Crisco -- just enough left, I think, and pi memorized to 50 digits.
I don't know where to get moose fat. Why do I need to do this?

Oh, okay. Thanks.
Wait a minute... I still don't know why I need to do this.

If I don't mention I'm getting close too, can I skip the moose fat?
Ah, it's more like Crossing the Line. Ready or not, here it comes.
But remember, if you're the 1,000,000th customer you will recieve a free Ethos eyepiece from TeleVue.
If you think that's bad, you should see what you have to do when you hit myria-phi posts. I still can't bring myself to talk about it, though maybe Maksutov will be able to. If he's still able to post afterwards, that is.
Everything I need to know I learned through Googling.
The most important thing to remember is how fast you are going when you hit the post.
Put everything else out of your mind and concentrate on your speed (velocity if you are a physicist). Immediately after hitting the post, when you wake up, ask, "Kenneth, what is the frequency?"
I think you'll be pleasantly surprised when Victoria Principal opens the shower door and realizes it has all been a dream.
