Whenever you start a new project, you’re never quite sure where it will go or how long it will last, no matter what your initial intentions might be. And now that Robot Butt has officially turned five years old, and I’ve done some deep reflecting with my spiritual guru, it saddens and dismays me to announce:
We’re gonna be here in another five years.
That’s right, we aren’t showing any signs of slowing down, and we’ve got plenty of new things in the works. Though to even be at this point, it would be insane of me not to thank all of the contributors who have helped us get here. Each year, Robot Butt has gotten better because of the work people submit to us. There are other comedy publications out there, and I don’t take lightly the fact that you want to see your work published with us. So thanks!
Now, we’ve had a lot of wild times here over the past five years, from breaking the news that Chris Rock was hosting the 2016 Oscars to losing not one, but four interns, who all vanished without a trace. We’ve been lucky enough to have some stories written about us, and we now hold the distinction of being the subject of the only true thing the National Enquirer has ever published (yes, we do have the videotapes that will DESTROY Brad and Angelina).
And while all of this has been instrumental in propelling us to a milestone of longevity worth mentioning, it only gets me more pumped up to find out what’s in store next.
So thanks again for helping Robot Butt hit five years of terrorizing the Internet, and thanks in advance for helping us terrorize it at least five more.
