The dude who has long hair and his avatar is a picture of him standing in the tunnel. Cant remember his name but the dude is always positive

Edit: I'm dumb.

...actually that rikkitikki post was one of the most "slow-to-boil" hilarious things of this silly season.

If your post above was a subtle joke, step forward and collect your reps, rikki.

Trinity is the anode to all the cathodes here.

The proton to the electrons.

I thought about italics but figured the subtleness would work better haha Thanks for the reps brother

I assumed it was a joke when I read it. A fine one at that. I guess you really do need italics around here!

 

[irishog77]

Italics are for losers.

DOWN WITH MISUSED ITALICS!!!

Sarcasm, be it subtle or heavy handed, can be a thing of beauty. When (and if) missed the ensuing interchanges can be highly entertaining.

A "heads up" can be seen as poor form.

I'm not even nice to myself! What an asshole...

Seriously though, thank you again for the nomination, Ironman. I really do try to be nice. This past year has been a struggle for me though. Taking over moderator duties makes you bit more callous. I've always tried to be a nice guy, but when you're supposed to run things, you can't always be that guy.

I simply appreciate being recognized for this award thought I certainly do not expect to win. Thank you.

I'd like to nominate damn near everyone on this board though. People disagree, but there really are not many of you who aren't kind.

Welcome to parenthood! lol

Edit: I'm dumb.

Are you also deaf and blind?

Are you a wizard at pinball?

Do you importune others to follow you?

What's your relationship with the Acid Queen?

My feeling has always been that italics insult the reader and devalue the joke, but it has become apparent to me over the last day or so that some people on this site do not have their sarcasm detectors finely tuned.

 

[Old Man Mike]

... yeh, right. I've got your sarcasm right here.

... and you can stick your anodes.


That's What I'M Talkin' About!!!

{you know, there's value in being 13 again.....}

 

[palinurus]

While I agree in principle about the use of italics, I use them sometimes because I don't have time to explain to 17 people how I was just kidding about the remark I just posted.

I think Cackalacky does a great job of posting interesting things, but generally being respectful and thoughtful, and yet not being a suckass. I'd nominate him. There are many similar posters, but he comes first to mind.

 

[Redbar]

Old Man Mike, he not only sees big picture, he sees silver linings, he keeps the faith.

Good call. Cackalacky is solid and worthy of serious consideration.

The new Mike, sassy!

Alamo, Wildman, Ultimate, Yankee, Grahambo, the list goes on. I know I am forgetting someone. Who?

Dublin is one.

Where is that all-snub team thread again ....

Yeah, that's the only one I have a prayer at. Unfair!

Wow Bogs got a new hairdo!

It's a good look for him, though.

I could get behind a Cackalacky candidacy.

IrishPat183.

But seriously, TheFlyingAlamo is a great candidate.

I know that I should stand by a fellow 2009er, but ...

 

[RyCo1983]

Just noticed I'm up for this one...
Note: I have thousands of bad things to say about thousands of people.
But I'm all about that mutual respect.

<3 you all, even if I hate you...or something like that.

Time to get vdrunk
