I’ll make an attempt to post in the spirit of the OP, cause I’m seeing an awful lot of A listers being mentioned. (How does one determine what class they fall into? I don’t think I’m even on the list )
My contributions:
** MaxtheVool **, cause I’ve met him IRL and he’s a cool and smart guy and I agree with a lot of the points he makes on the board.
** Bambi Hassenpfeffer **, cause he’s my best friend IRL and he’s put up with me for close to a decade.
** ladyfoxfyre **, who I recently discovered works in a pharmacy(as do I) down the road from me, and we’ve chatted a few times and she seems smart and level headed and cool and also we seem to think a lot alike.
Sampiro, Lissa Lisslar, No Clue Boy (is he still here?), Dung Beetle–really, I could just sit here and type names. That’s why I came back to the boards.
I like ENugent because she always has something valuable to say about worms. As a fan of worms, I find her comments intriguing and wish to subscribe to her newsletter.
Since we are actually here to “praise” lesser known dopers, and even though he’s already whinged about being a C-lister, may I take this opportunity to nominate VunderBob! :::mucho clapping:::
Not only does bobbio spin a good yarn but he also serves as a volunteer fireman in his little community and does good deeds on a regular basis. He’s a real hero-type of guy.
I’ll also nominate fellow whiner Shirley Ujest, MMPers ** HazelnutCoffee, Mr. Bus Guy, DogButler, ScareyFaerie, No One Special, IvoryTowerDenizen, Tupug Anachi** (of course), ** Kaiwik, Taters, Eleanorigby, ** and SpazCat all crack me up on a regular basis.
Swampbear and FairyChatMom are A-listers. Nanner nanner boo boo.
**Bibliocat, Twickster, Norinew, Broomstick ** also get a “Sa-a-a-a lu-u-u-ute!”
I just love Mindfield and VunderBob!
Actually, I do. You’re both great people, and very funny. And Bob, I know I do this occasionally, but not often enough- your posts about firefighting are awesome, and so is the job you do. Thank you.
And hugs to Dotty. If you were a little bit closer I’d be inviting you over a lot.
Blast! I’ve been recognized! Now how am I supposed to sneak this herd of battle llama in?
Sigh Oh well. I’ll just have to come up with a Plan B. Llama spit grosses me out anyway. Hey, uh … anyone want some slightly used llamas?
Oh, and I guess I should rec-o-nize, so I’d say the whole MMP gang of course – and I’m not just saying that because haven’t posted in the MMP for two days and am looking to atone for my sins. Really!
And there are others, but my brain is operating on autopilot right now and is not responding to requests for information. Well, it’s responding, but it’s being rather rude, so…
This is a tough one - I was trying to think of names of people who don’t usually get praised, but the ones that stick out in my mind are the ones who usually get praised - Bricker, Colibri, Stranger on a Train, jshore, etc…
I hope it doesn’t violate the spirit of the thread if I looked through some threads to find names I recognize and think deserve praise, but I couldn’t think of off the top of my head.
So here’s a list, in no particular order and with no regard to whether I agree with these people or not. astro Siam Sam Cartooniverse St. Urho iamthewalrus(:3= Left Hand of Dorkness Otto CalMeacham ComeToTheDarkSideWeHaveCookies Exapno Mapcase bouv OtakuLoki swampbear madmonk28 Little Nemo Blake MrDibble Fish
I’m sure there’s others, so this wouldn’t be a complete list, but hey, it’s a shot, right?
It’s funny - there’s thousands of people who regularly post here, but there’s very few I could name off the top of my head. I like hanging out here because the other posters are funny, interesting and thoughtful, but I can’t remember the names of most of the people I interact with!
