Posted by Mr. Poe | September 3, 2008 10:18 AMHe's 50? I thought he was a twink...
Posted by Ziggity | September 3, 2008 10:19 AMFnarf is so hot Bill Clinton got a slurpee and then went to 7/11.
Posted by Zing! | September 3, 2008 10:22 AMYou rat bastard, Dan.
Posted by Greg | September 3, 2008 10:23 AMCongratulations, Sir.
Have a ridiculously good time celebrating.
Posted by It's Mark Mitchell | September 3, 2008 10:23 AMIs Fnarf a stranger staff member or something? This whole time, I thought he was just a Slog commenter.
Posted by James | September 3, 2008 10:24 AM@6: Fnarf has long risen above the mindless babble of Slog commenters and into his own realm. Also, he's been commenting longer than just about everyone here.
Posted by Jessica | September 3, 2008 10:27 AMFnarf, aren't you now 20 years overdue to be "renewed"?
Just kidding & congrats!

Posted by YEEEEEEEEEEEAH! | September 3, 2008 10:34 AMHappy birthday Fnarf!!! I'll use your birthday as a handy excuse to drink heavily.
Greg, why is Dan a rat bastard?
Posted by PopTart | September 3, 2008 10:35 AMRemember, Fnarf, according to the Online Guide to Health Checkups for Men 50-64 Years
Prostate Cancer Screening -- Discuss with provider the limitations and benefits of screening PSA and digital rectal exam (schedule latter with Mr. Poe).
Posted by Jubilation T. Cornball | September 3, 2008 10:35 AMYou're seriously 50?! You didn't look that old when you were stuffing quarters up your nose at the croc a few years back.
Posted by Callie | September 3, 2008 10:39 AMFNARF if your debauched birthday celebrations occur in public, I'll be blaming you for making us all look bad and electing McCain.
Posted by wf | September 3, 2008 10:41 AMHappy Fnarf-day, Fnarf!!!
Posted by Elsinora | September 3, 2008 10:41 AMthat is one ugly baby.
Posted by Mike in MO | September 3, 2008 10:43 AM@12
Probably because that was "a few years back" and he wasn't 50?
Posted by stupid bitch alert: beeeeeep beeeeeep | September 3, 2008 10:45 AM@15 It is not, that baby is adorable!
Posted by PopTart | September 3, 2008 10:48 AMI'm still laughing at #15. The audacity!
Posted by Mr. Poe | September 3, 2008 10:57 AMFNARF! It's my birthday too! We share a birthday - I don't know what it means, but I like it!
Posted by KELLY O | September 3, 2008 10:58 AMThings I have learned about Fnarf since "meeting" him on Slog:
Posted by kerri harrop | September 3, 2008 11:00 AM- He is a wicked Scrabble opponent
- His favorite pie is Strawberry Rhubarb
- He is unapologetic about his taste in music, which leans heavily on British twee
- He has threatened me with bodily harm if I bring a certain Slog commenter to his birthday party
Happy birthday, Fnarf. Your real name may be Steve, but I refuse to call you that.
That is EXACTLY the expression I always imagine you to have. Only with somewhat less drool.
Get back to us and tell us what you're drinking. Cheers!
Posted by Irena | September 3, 2008 11:02 AMFnarf, you shall always be the man in the golden onesie leotard in my mind.
Posted by Non | September 3, 2008 11:08 AM@16
Posted by Callie | September 3, 2008 11:14 AMBy "that old" I meant that he didn't look as old as he was (presumably 48) while he was stuffing quarters up his nose. You stupid fuck.
Zentai!
Posted by kid icarus | September 3, 2008 11:15 AMHappy Birthday Fnarf. Sounds like you and Kelly O have some celebratin' to do!
@23
Nobody cares, keshmeshi.
Posted by stupid bitch alert: beeeeeep beeeeeep | September 3, 2008 11:19 AMRemember the Alamo -
Remember the Maine -
Remember the Fnarf
50 is young if you're a tree! Congratz...

Posted by RHETT ORACLE | September 3, 2008 11:22 AMYou clearly do, since you felt the need to try to ridicule me. And I do, because I'm not a stupid bitch. Also, I'm not keshmeshi, asshole.
Posted by Callie | September 3, 2008 11:22 AMI am humbled.
Posted by Fnarf | September 3, 2008 11:26 AMMike in MO, when I was born my head was the same size it is today, and the rest of my body was just a teensy dangling scrotum.
Jube, thanks so much for the terrifying reminder. My doc isn't recommending the digital this time; it's the full 20-foot-long Dremel attachment with the rotating blades.
As his age, Fnarf needs to be demolished so we can go with the surface transit option.
Happy Birthday, rabble rouser. Don't be too docile for your age: Go have a drink or three.
Posted by Gomez | September 3, 2008 11:26 AMYou're doing a marvelous job of ridiculing yourself. Keep it up, keshmeshi.
Posted by stupid bitch alert: beeeeeep beeeeeep | September 3, 2008 11:27 AM@30
This is the last time I respond. I'm seriously not Keshmeshi. You sound stupid. I've been commenting here forever -always as Callie. I was a freaky friday slogger once. Go pick on someone else.
Happy Birthday Fnarf!
Posted by Callie | September 3, 2008 11:29 AMWell I still think you were a cute baby. Even though I wasn't invited to your birthday party.
Happy birthday to Kelly O too!!!
Posted by PopTart | September 3, 2008 11:33 AMCallie @31, don't let the little shits get you down. WE know who you are, and that's all that counts.
Posted by Fnarf | September 3, 2008 11:38 AMPoptart, I'm sorry. Facebook me and I'll invite you.
Oh, and Kelly O: that's the best news I've heard all day! Happy birthday!
Posted by Fnarf | September 3, 2008 11:42 AMThanks Fnarf. Sorry to divert attention from the point of this post. You!
Posted by Callie | September 3, 2008 11:46 AMThanks Fnarf. Sorry to divert attention from the point of this post. You!
Posted by Callie | September 3, 2008 11:47 AMSweet double post. n00b.
Posted by stupid bitch alert: beeeeeep beeeeeep | September 3, 2008 11:52 AMPopTart, Dan is a rat bastard for putting up a big, splashy post about Fnarf turning 50! while coyly maintaining the fiction that he, himself, is only 34.
Posted by Greg | September 3, 2008 11:52 AMKelly O and Fnarf have birthday on same day, The Incredible Sulk read about it, freak out, happy out, THE INCREDIBLE SULK BECOME HAPPY!
SULK WILL WISH KELLY O AND FNARF HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
And no, I don't feel like letting it go.
Posted by The Incredible Sulk | September 3, 2008 11:53 AMHappy birthday old man. If I live another six years I'll see 50 too.
Posted by elswinger | September 3, 2008 11:54 AMcan't wait to see the lucksmiths at your party!
Posted by alan | September 3, 2008 11:56 AMHappy birthday Fnarf!
Happy birthday Kelly O!
Posted by elenchos | September 3, 2008 11:58 AMHappy Bday Fnarf...may you find yourself swimming in delicious wine by 5pm today!
Posted by Original Monique | September 3, 2008 12:00 PMHappy birthday, Fnarf!!
Posted by Balt-O-Matt | September 3, 2008 12:02 PMAct your shoe size, not your age...
It's a helluva lot more fun.
Posted by michael strangeways | September 3, 2008 12:10 PMDang, I've got a rehearsal tonight, so will miss wishing you well on the beginning of your second half-century of life!
Keep up the good work, we'll be catching up with you in a couple of years...
Posted by COMTE | September 3, 2008 12:12 PMAnd seriously, that baby looks positively EVIL! Like Kubrick & Clarke's "starchild" right after it learned it could detonate orbiting nukes.
Posted by COMTE | September 3, 2008 12:14 PMI'm not actually having a party tonight. The action is on Saturday. Alan, the Lucksmiths aren't coming. But I may put on a dress and get down and do the hootchie cootchie (if you ask nicely).
Posted by Fnarf | September 3, 2008 12:23 PMwhen I was born my head was the same size it is today, and the rest of my body was just a teensy dangling scrotum.
That is the funniest thing I've read all day. And with all the Palin stuff out there, that is saying a LOT!!!!
Posted by Mike in MO | September 3, 2008 12:26 PMThanks for all the happies everyone. And Fnarf, HAPPIEST to YOU! I admire! 50 ain't nothin'. Wait until you're 57 like me...

Posted by Fnarf | September 3, 2008 1:36 PMThe thought of that huge head passing thru your mommie - god, oh god.
But, good luck and the advice about prostate is imrtant. Go to a fag doctor, they do know the topic.
Posted by Frank in Ballard | September 3, 2008 1:37 PMI think SLOG died when I tried to post earlier: Happy Birthday, Fnarf!
Oh, and since I get a do-over, Happy Birthday, Kelly O!
@49 for the correct decision that it's @28 for the win!

57 beers, then DJ Riz and Baby J's punk rock city cab... that's a birthday!
Posted by KELLY O | September 3, 2008 2:46 PMThank you, Reverend. It's pretty close to fin-arf, only try to make it one syllable if you can. Ffffff-narf, fnnn-arf.
Posted by Fnarf | September 3, 2008 3:10 PMI also answer to "Steve" and to "Hey, shithead".
50. That's awesome. Happy berthday, ya bastid.
Posted by Lloyd Clydesdale | September 3, 2008 4:04 PMHappy bday Fnarf.
Posted by justin j | September 3, 2008 7:33 PMHappy birthday Fnarf! I always appreciate your sagacity (slogacity?)
Too bad I'm a couple thousand miles away from the party. Thanks for the pronunciation guide. (That's how I pronounce it when saying, for example, I fnarfed in my mouth a little just then).
Respectfully,
Posted by emma's bee | September 3, 2008 7:39 PMBon anniversaire. And take it from someone who's seen a lot of babies---you were once cute baby.
