There are many reasons people post on here. Some are selling a video. Some are asking a question. Some just comment in general regarding some element of wam. But as is human nature in general, there are few who simply express their gratitude, giving thanks and with nothing to gain.

For that, DEVO 77, you have stood out from the rest of us. You almost always thank everyone who shares anything wam related in the way of sample images. You try to name the model when it is obvious who it is. You thank and name the producer too. And you've been doing this for a very long time. Years. 6073 times. Not asking for anything. Just thanking those who produce what we all crave to see.

So I for one, wish to THANK YOU DEVO 77, and I appreciate your generous, grateful attitude. You leave a wonderful example for us, and many of us could learn from it.

As you would put it, "Wonderful posts from DEVO, DEVO 77" and I mean that from the bottom of my heart.

Thanks for all the encouraging posts on my threads, Devo

and, and I can't stress this enough, please swing it

I have to admit at one point I thought he was a bot that makes that post on everything.

This thread absolutely needed to be made sooner or later. Thank you Devo!

Devo. Great posts man

and swing it!

He's one of the folks you keep our room going and positive!

Absolutely....... THIS. I just recently mentioned Devo as a Legend on my post. I messaged him privately to thank him recently as he has always commented on my posts. I dunno but always presumed he was UK..how wrong was I lol.

I Love you Devo and I truly appreciate all your lovely comments, this forum wouldn't be the same without you. Xx

I really wanna see Devo swing it

I always wanted to know what "And swing it!" was in reference to, if anything specific at all.

Devo, you da man!

And you have to post something here. Not necessarily to say thanks, but to uphold your record.

Thanks for your constant and genuine praise to those in our community.

Same here! I've been wondering that for YEARS!

Thank you you for your appreciation. I do enjoy the stuff that everyone shares here on the UMD. The pics, the clips, gifs, and everything else.

And swing it comes from an episode of The Three Stooges.

And to those who think I am a bot...
Devo77 is way better than Devo75, much better than Devo76. Don't get me started on Devo Vista

Thank you, Devo77!

Never liked the guy.

Hes always been a supporter of mine. Cheers Devo!

DEVO ROCKS!!!!!

Devo Vista - almost as good as the Amazon Fire Phone! Lol.

Love your support and positivity.

Swing it for everyone Devo!

Regards,

Andy and the team.

And swing it indeed.
The most well known catchphrase on UMD (and prior to UMD, the SPLOSH Forum).

I know that I will finally "make it" on this forum when Devo77 finally compliments my "little ladies" and then gives me a swing.

Until then, I will have to settle for a swing and a miss.

Devo's motto:

When a problem comes along, you must whip cream it.

Well, I'd have got that wrong in a pub quiz. I thought he was from here too! Something about the tone of his posts, and that the timing of his comments on so many threads seemed to match with mine, made me assume he was British. Obviously not. So where is Devo based?

Late to the party but agree completely with everyone. Devo77 has always been an absolute credit to this community, polite and supportive. Go Devo77!

I, too, had sort of assumed Devo must be UK based -- but it was largely because of "And swing it", which I thought must be from a game or variety show (i.e., Noel's House Party).

I feel like a small part of me has now been fulfilled that I/we know the origin of the phrase!

...........Damn, now what do I do with the rest of my life?

Viva Devo,

JY

We have to admit that Devo kept alive a Curly Howard catch phrase--from the days of the big bands, like Benny Goodman, Count Basie, etc.

Devo is a really good guy.

Devo is the best.
The band and UMD's own Devo!

Devo, thanks for laying down such positive vibes over the years!

Glad to see Devo 77 get some props!

What does Devo mean?

There is an American rock band called Devo, who had a hit called Whip it, in 1980. Maybe it's a reference to them?

He's through being cool!

Love you buddy.
