Who's a Good Boy? Johnny Wallflower's a Good Boy.

August 26, 2020 7:13 AM

Let's take a minute to congratulate Johnny Wallflower on his 1,000th post. He's a Good Boi who is always there to remind us that while the Internet may be made of cats, it's not made ONLY of cats. And let us be grateful it's not a literal shitpost.

He is a very good boy, for another reason that I will not get into. He knows what he did.

I enjoy the feeling I get when I start reading the top of a post and realize "this is a Wallflower post" before I get to the name at the bottom. Thanks for all you do to make Metafilter special.

Thanks for making this place better, JW, but I do know of one place where you're not particularly popular. Among the Metafilter servers. They find you exhausting. But I think the rest of us are really grateful.

A veritable megabloom!

Beautiful and so good for the local economy!

How did all those dogwoods grow up so fast, though?

I personally loved seeing JW’s Big Five personality scores on the Cat or Dog Person plot and thinking, yep, those make sense. :) Happy nice round number, JW, you make the blue a happier place.

I did not know there could be so many dog-adjacent topics for FPP. Bless M. Wallflower for opening my eyes.

I also know him to be a helpful, kind & jocular but earnest sort of guy who makes things happen when they need to. He’s an awesome grandad, a lover of fine music & supporter of the arts.
