3. Pah. That's nothing, first I was the 1000th visitor to a site,
then the 100,000th, then the 1,000,000th , then the 10,000,000th , the 100,000,000th and finally the 10,000,000,000 (NOT A TYPO) There isn't that many people in the world. The entire populatopn of internet users all visiting the site daily could get those numbers, but not much else.

So nyah-nyah na-yah nah! Winning the lottery is usually only ~1/16,000,000 to ~1/200,000,000, whereas the probability of bieng all my things was 1/ 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000. Now that is impressive, a feat only acheived by about 6 million others who went to the same site.
