I realize I’ve not been on this board very long, but I come on and read the boards for about 2 1/2 hours, and I haven’t posted all that much but I’m looking for a good sig. I wonder if anyone out there can help. I’m just a lonely newbie on the SDMB with no friends here.

That should be 2 1/2 hours every morning. It’s way to early for me to think.

hehehe that is just not right. anyways it’s hard to actually get into a conversation/good spirited discussion with any group of people this time of the morning. very few people post and the ones I do see post (which will remain nameless) seem like they do so only to get their post count up. Of course that is just MY opinion and that is the only one that counts. Hehehehe

Tiki God is my favorite poster EVER!! Combining charm and whit with a healthy dose of true intelligence, Tiki shines a light into the realm of ignorance that we all would do well to follow. And I’m not just saying this to be quoted in the sig! - **Spritle**

All hail The Mighty Tiki God, from whom all blessings flow! Let us beg The Mighty Tiki God, that The Mighty Tiki God might bless us and render us tasteful, that we might have the sense NOT to wear that horrible purple shirt in public! Thank The Mighty Tiki God for causing the sun to rotate 'round the Earth, thus protecting us from centripedal force… which, were the situation otherwise, would fling us, squealing like swine, out into space! Prostrate yourselves before The Mighty Tiki God!!

Or, as an option: **Prostate** yourselves before The Mighty Tiki God!!

Hope that helps!

I’m not sure you can really top Spritle’s (I give it two thumbs up) but in case youi missed her subtlety I’ll offer the first thing that popped into my mind.

Gods and smiting go hand in hand. And isn’t smiting such a cool word? Smite, smite, smite, smote, smote, smote. Prepare to be smitten!!!  
On second thought it’s so obviously after midnight here and on paper that looks like crap. _sigh_

Hmm some people want some brownie points I see. I like that. Sucking up is good. LOL Anyways to the people that have contributed thanks! I need a punchy sig so far it’s a tie between Spritle and TwistofFate. Although the sucking up thing is helping a certain person out. I reckon flattery is just as important as punchiness.

I’m sure not trying to start anything here, nor am I being partial, but before you make that final decision, there are a few things that you should know about **TwistofFate**.

1. It is well known that ToF masticates regularly.
2. I have _never_ seen ToF do anything nice for anybody.
3. I don’t know if ToF gives to ANY charities.
4. Hi Opal.
5. I _never_ recalled seeing ToF use “Hi Opal” in any list.
6. ToF has a glabella.

Again, impartial material. An informed decision is more worthy than not.

(🙂 **ToF** )

Of course that is just MY opinion and that is the only one that counts.

Unlike most of the _tikis_ of their legends and folktales, this one was no pushover for pots of poi, lustrous pearls, coconut wine, or even the occasional pretty handmaiden.

“Yes, _tiki_! Yes Lord and Master! Yes, O Wise and Beneficent Boldface!” the islanders chanted in reply.

Both of these from **Don Callander** , in _Dragon Tempest_
