I don't mean to brag, but by that, I mean... I completely mean to brag!

• Late 2020: I expand the List of children's animated television series. Afterwards, another editor comes along and expands it even further, causing the list article to become so long that it gets split by decade.
• Q2 2022: I expand the table in the Future section of Detailed logarithmic timeline.
• March 23, 2023: I create Template:Roman months and put it beneath each article for, well, the Roman months.
• December 25, 2023: The draft for The Scale of the Universe is accepted within hours of my first submission.
• February 26, 2024: Before it could be reviewed a second time, I decide to take back my second submission and move the draft for Nickelodeon and LGBT representation into the mainspace myself.
• April 18, 2024: I create the disambiguation page Thermal Maximum.

• March 2021: In one episode of the Animaniacs reboot, Yakko says "Croik misseur! Croik misseur! Croiks of all kinds!". What does he mean by "croik misseur"?

  He may have been referring to a dish called croque monsieur.

• May 2021: Why is the Babylon allegory from the Book of Revelation called the 5-letter W word that rhymes with chore?

  That word is a translation of the Greek word πόρνη (pornē) which means prostitute. It was also a figure of speech for an idolatress, and in the context of Revelation, Babylon is used as an allegory for Rome, which was considered the chief seat of idolatry.

• August 2021: How far back has something along the lines of "better forgiveness than permission" been said?

  The phrase "It's easier to ask forgiveness than it is to get permission." was popularized by Grace Hopper, though it goes at least as far back as 1846 with an unclear reference to Francesco Barberini.

• December 2022: Each of the "games for you from the web" featured on Windows 10's Start menu had an infinity symbol with 5 colors on its thumbnail. What was that about?

  That is the logo of FRVR, a marketing-focused games company.

• January 2023: What does I like your cut g mean?

  Cut means haircut and g is short for gangster, though this particular phrase could be a variation of the older saying "I like the cut of your jib".

• April 2023: What's with the extremely long YouTube comments that start off with something like "I'm currently crying so hard right now"?

  Each comment of this sort may have have been the work of a bot or program.

• June 2023: My mouse sometimes treats one click as a double-click. As it turns out, my mouse button occasionally fails to hold for split-seconds unless I press down on it hard. Why does it act this way?

  This is often caused by dirt getting in the way of the actuator. If it bothers you, you may as well buy a new mouse or, if you use Windows, try something called AutoHotkey.

P.S. When the mouse I use has this problem, I sometimes end up in an edit conflict with myself where it tells me that I'm trying to revert the edit I just made. On the other hand, this problem with holding clicks can be useful for grinding games (e.g. Cookie Clicker) where I would have to click the same thing over and over again, in which cases I would attempt to gently hold the button so I could effectively play a game more quietly.

• September 2023: What does chille tid mean?

  Chilletid is a Danish and Norwegian Bokmål word that roughly translates to "chilling time". It's also a play on the phrase "chill a tad".

• November 2023: What is this "I know what you want girl" song that is used in those unoriginal world flag map videos with VHS-like effects?

  "all i want is you" by Rebzyyx

• November 2023: What does fanum tax mean?

  Fanum is a Twitch streamer who refers to the food he takes from others as his "tax", hence the phrase.

• March 2024: What would lead someone to say e.g. "I am living in Paris since 1992" when they're supposed to say "I have lived in Paris since 1992"?

  That misuse of the word since is reminiscent of how someone in Continental Europe might phrase their sentences. For example, "I live in Paris since four years" is a way to mistranslate the French phrase "J'habite à Paris depuis quatre ans".

At the Science reference desk, I asked for the abbreviation to the provisional name of a hypothetical element of atomic number 717 and got the answer I expected.

In an effort to attempt to outdo myself, I started a joke RfC at the talk page for the lightbulb essay. However, a bunch of AfD ideas would come to me throughout the day, leading me to pretend to nominate these pages:

• Air Force One photo op incident:

  Although the planes were engaged in a photo op and training exercise, the citizens of New York and New Jersey had not been informed in advance; some thought it could be the makings of a terrorist attack similar to the September 11 attacks. Some people ran out of buildings while others had extra buildings to spare. When all the buildings were used up, new ones had to be built to meet demand.

• Alliance Defending Freedom:

  In Sweden, a midwife, Ellinor Grimmark, sued the province of Jönköping for discrimination because she was refused employment when, citing "freedom of conscience", she refused to give morning-after pills, perform abortions, or put in copper IUDs. She lost both her hearing before the Discrimination Ombudsman, and at the Jönköping district court, prompting her to get a hearing aid and a sign language interpreter.

• Santa Claus: The Christmas issue of NOAA's Weather Bureau Topics with "Santa Claus" streaking across a weather radar screen, 1958

  I find it unbelievable that Santa would do such a thing, especially during the winter. Even if all the children are asleep, he should at least put some pants on before he gets on his sleigh, and definitely before going down any chimney. I know the baby Jesus is sometimes shown in his birthday suit, but that doesn't justify such naughty behavior. On the other hand, that would explain why Santa prefers to let kids see him at the mall rather than at their homes on the night before Christmas.

• Ganesha in world religions:

  He is honoured with Motaka, sweets and fruit, when business is good, and he is made ridiculous by putting his picture or statue upside down, when business is down.

• Islam and magic:

  In Iran in 2011, 25 advisers and aides of the then President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and his chief of staff Esfandiar Rahim Mashaei were arrested on charges of practising sorcery and black magic. According to "the top sorcerer among Iran's ruling elite" (top "according to associates clients and government officials"), Ahmadinejad met with him "at least twice" (Ahmadinejad denies the charges), and was just one among "dozens" of high Iranian government officials" who consult him on "matters of national security". The "top" sorcerer (claims to) regularly contact Jinn who "work for Israel's intelligence agency, the Mossad, and for the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency", and has had 'a long battle to infiltrate the Israeli jinn and find out what they know.'" The sorcerer also claimed that not only did jinn work for the US and Israel, but that some were being used by him "to infiltrate" the intelligence agencies of Israeli and U.S. [sic]

• Maji Maji Rebellion:

  A spirit medium named Kinjikitile Ngwale, who practiced folk Islam that incorporated animist beliefs, claimed to be possessed by a snake spirit called Hongo. Ngwale began calling himself Bokero and developed a belief that the people of East Africa had been called upon to eliminate the Germans. German anthropologists recorded that he gave his followers war medicine that would turn German bullets into water. This "war medicine" was in fact water (maji in Kiswahili) mixed with castor oil and millet seeds. Empowered with this new liquid, Bokero's followers began what would become known as the Maji Maji Rebellion.

  ...

  German troops, armed with machine guns, departed from Mahenge to the Ngoni camp, which they attacked on 21 October. The Ngoni soldiers retreated, throwing away their bottles of war medicine and crying, "The maji is a lie!"

• March on the Pentagon:

  Not to be dissuaded, Abbie Hoffman vowed to levitate the Pentagon claiming he would attempt to use psychic energy to levitate the Pentagon until it would turn orange and begin to vibrate, at which time the war in Vietnam would end.

• Ryūjin:

  One legend involving Ryūjin is the story about how the jellyfish lost its bones. According to this story, Ryūjin wanted to eat monkey's liver (in some versions of the story, to heal an incurable rash), and sent the jellyfish to get him a monkey. The monkey managed to sneak away from the jellyfish by telling him that he had put his liver in a jar in the forest and offered to go and get it. As the jellyfish came back and told Ryūjin what had happened, Ryūjin became so angry that he beat the jellyfish until its bones were crushed.

• The Nose (Gogol short story)

  "The Nose" is divided into three parts and tells the story of Collegiate Assessor ('Major') Kovalyov, who wakes up one morning without his nose. He later finds out that his nose has developed a life of its own, and has apparently surpassed him by attaining the rank of State Councillor.
