Okay, reading through the Pit \< yeah yeah, I had a life rant in there \> I realized that we need to take a vote on the bestest \< giggle \> poster in the Pit.

I nominate **Wally**.

He can write a flame like no other. I often wonder if he’s really flaming someone but when it comes down to it he’s really kicking some butt.

Between the putzes comments you can hardly read the stinging he inflicts, but he does. He’s a stealth bee with a light touch, but his venom is dangerous.

I love you Wally 😉

Wally? That putz couldn’t flame a BBQ if it bit him in the ass 😃

Good call, seriously. Other nominations:

- Alphagene. Yes, even now. The power has not poluted his sharp tongue.
- Andros! He’s one of the first things that struck me about this MB: “Does this andros dude ever LEAVE the Pit?”. I later learned he does. Occasionally.
- water2j is precise, sharp and deadly. And ALWAYS right.
- Milossarian. He achieves more with humour than I will ever achieve with profanity. And I’m GOOD at profanity 😉
- UncleBeer is pretty good to.

Gotta go now. Kissing up to all these pit heroes has made me feel really sick.

My vote goes to **Coldfire** – his nomination of others (almost as worthy) just shows his overall class and magnamity when **out** of the Pit. But **in** the pit with Coldfire – brrrrr, shudder, uh uh, nope, not me, not gonna go there, nosirree.

You’re right, Auntie. Coldy is a surgeon in the pit. He’ll take you apart and forget to put you back together again.

He’s a master.

But thank you for the mention, techie.

Incidentally, you’re no slouch there yourself.

Ah thanks Wally.

Depending on the person who is flaming, I vary my technique 😉

It’s all in the wrist. \< hehe \>

Anyhow, somewhere, somehow, Sigmund Freud is reading those “yer mama” cracks and smiling. Get a life, or get a terminal disease and clear some room in this world for the people who have better things to do than engage in trite virtual sadomasochistic mutual masturbation. You both can suck my used tampons, you goat-raping, rat-stuffing inbred sons of a syphillitic gutterslut and a one-eyed midget named “Klaus”. Your conception was drug-induced, and your appearance reflects that fact. Fuck off and die.

We have so many, each with their own unique and special talents … sort of like the X-Men.

A recent young Jedi who I think shows great promise (I only say this because he doesn’t particularly frequent the Pit) is **John Corrado.**

His posts leave you with the impression, “Yes, I just massacred you and left your carcass to rot on sharp sticks, and I didn’t even break a sweat. Don’t ever _really_ piss me off.”

Since most my favorites have already been mentioned (including myself… yes, I like me!) Let me add:

PunditLisa  
Diane  
AntiPro.

They don’t post as much in the pit as some of the others mentioned but when they do it’s pretty damn funny.

As for best I’ve read in the last ½ hour I’d have to say it was “Maybe . can come back as (.) (.) and we can call her tits.” by Shirley Ujest

wally IS good, as are Coldfire & Chief Scott. But the latter two seem to get a bulk discount on Purinatrollchow, so I’ll vote for wally. For the distaff side, it is Diane.

## “wally IS good, as are Coldfire & Chief Scott. But the latter two seem to get a bulk discount on Purinatrollchow, so I’ll vote for wally. For the distaff side, it is Diane.”

“Here, trolly, trolly, trolly…”

::Gripping the rope to a cartoon 1,000-ton weight poised above a delicious bowl of Troll Chow ™::

I take umbrage at even being mentioned in the same sentence as those two miscreants! The mere association to them makes me vomit and run screaming for the cold shower and Ajax.

I have never, ever:

1. Rapidly introduced a child’s hamster to the ceiling;
2. Had the nickname “Coldy.” “Hardy,” yes, but never “Coldy;”
3. Confined my daughter to her room and her boyfriend to the basement until she somehow, someway, got rid of a puke neon-green monstrosity in the garage;
4. Been drunk enough to start threads like, “Amsterdam: Pearl of the Orient” or “My dick’s in a dike;”
5. Had my surname entered in the AH dictionary followed by – _v. 1. to make oneself the object of ridicule “That man is really Wallying in that spider web. Let’s wave.”_
6. Worn clompen, heard clompen, seen clompen, or smoked the most mind-bending hash out of clompen.

As to the OP, I’ll give the nod to these two yutzes.

I’m surprised that no one has voted for Lexicon – even though he may be on a slight leave of absence to play that new game he has – As it was once said Lexi uses words like a surgeon uses a scalpel.

Pretty good, ChiefScott, but it is spelled _klompen_.  
Wooden shoes, for the less enlightened 😉

More like “Wooden shoes, for you normal folks out there who aren’t so stoned that they think that strapping two canoes to their feet is a good idea.”

"Hey, at least we know how to plug up our dykes! Errr, I mean, yeah, I _know_ we’ve got these silly looking towers with big-ass propellers on them, but the only time they actually _fly_ is when we’re smokin’ that _good_ shit, man! No, wait, that’s not what I meant…ummm…\< puff \>…
