> [@Inner\_Stickler](#): > > Odd, jokes are usually funny. She could have just as easily ignored my post. If we are going to be sticklers here, I would say percentage-wise jokes usually aren’t funny. Anyways, your deconstruction of the joke made you look just a little silly, but the “indigo child” rejoinder made you look like a jackass. ---

> [@Agent\_Foxtrot](#): > > What are the chances **What Exit?** will respond to this thread? Well, no one invited me to it until today. I had no idea I was being pitted and over such a silly thing. As mentioned below, you can only do one poll per thread and they kind of go together. I did screw up one poll though. The one on the Left Fielders. I already apologized for that. I don’t think I did anything even vaguely bad. This is a pretty goofy pitting in fact. I won’t be doing it again anyway, but I agree with \*\*pricciar \*\*I should have done these slower. Maybe 1 per day or even 1 every 2 days. But honestly I had some free time and decided I wanted to get the SDMB involved in deciding and debate the best in each position. I felt like it was the conclusion to some older threads from a few years before. **Zakalwe** , if you’re going to pit someone you could at least have the decency to PM them or mention the pitting in one of those horrible threads that so ruined your day. So in other words, go to hell you flea bitten excuse for a hot house flower. > [@pricciar](#): > > I enjoy the threads. It would be nice if you could create multiple polls in one thread, but you can’t. > It probably would have been better if he had parceled it out and just posted one thread on the topic a day - maybe 2. As it is, since I am a sucky poster and can barely get up the energy to post in one thread in a day, let alone 11 I just voted in all the polls and didn’t bother commenting. One or two a day, I probably would have taken the time to comment. > On top of that, since the nominations were from 3 years ago. It would have made sense to put together a new round up of nominations. Might have made it seem less out of left field (ha ha) and would have been more of a current community effort. > > Still. I voted in all the polls. > > (also, I usually don’t notice when Snowboarder Bo does the quarry thing - somehow I skip them over without paying much mind. But, I always laugh when someone else points it out.) ---

(Please ignore this post.) > [@Dave\_Hartwick](#): > > It was sort of amusing to me, just as your robo-responses to jokes is sort of amusing. And you could’ve ignored her post. And I could’ve ignored yours, and so on. I see nothing to amuse in _this_ post. I suppose I _could_ have ignored it, but it’s too late now: I’ve already read it. BTW, when is someone going to create another several Pit threads on this topic? I do approve of the Centerfielder poll, but want to Pit the Rightfielder poll. (Isn’t a rightfielder just a 2nd- or 3rd-string centerfielder?) ---

> [@septimus](#): > > I do approve of the Centerfielder poll, but want to Pit the Rightfielder poll. (Isn’t a rightfielder just a 2nd- or 3rd-string centerfielder?) I pit the center fielder thread because of the embarrassing error I made in it.:o Other than that, meh. At the risk of not being taken seriously after that out-to-lunch post, the right fielder is usually the one with the best throwing arm because he has the longest distance to throw to a base (third). Center fielders are usually chosen for their speed because they have more territory to cover. That’s the thinking in competitive baseball, at least; not so much on the playground. ---

I was unaware that **Jesus** did not do his own research. (I knew about **What Exit** , but I’m OK with it). [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/jesus-what-exit-do-your-own-damn-research/615610.md?page=3)
