I’m sure something like this has been done before, but I’m too lazy right now to search it on the SDMB. My three favorite dopers:

**The Asbestos Mango  
Tir`Tinuviel  
World Eater**

Who’re yours?

I don’t think I’ve ever encountered the first two on your list, but the third is toward the bottom along with **Diogenes** and **reeder**.

Anyway, my top three are probably:

**Mangetout**  
**Q.E.D.**  
**Liberal**  
Fart smellers, they.

errrr smart fellers

If I had to pick only three:

**Inigo Montoya**  
**Tentacle Monster**  
**Shirley Ujest**

These are the three that consistantly have me laughing every time I read their posts.

This is like placing your own kids in order of favourite. Can’t be done.

You are forgiven, oh childless one! It’s QUITE easy to do. The hard part is keeping them from figuring out the order. Observe.

:: ahem ::

**Agent Foxtrot** , most Dopers are my favorite in depending on what they have to say, how I’m feeling at any given time and what exactly you mean by favorite. Today, I seem to be inexplicably fond of my brethren from the right side of the pond so…England (including Isle of Man) Ireland & Scotland. Wales is assumed to ALWAYS be a favorite for reasons of heritage.

I haven’t really been around long enough to have personal favourites, but I suppose anybody who actually reads my posts is good with me 🙂

Oh and I’m open to bribes, preferably cheesecake, money or cash 😃

</div>

I’ll have to pick **Kal** first. His posts just crack me the fuck up.

Then I’ll have **Kal**. I’ve never read a post from him that I didn’t learn from. Brain the size of a planet, that guy.

Finally, **Kal** , I think. What a caring and considerate chap.

Wow, thanks **Foxtrot** , you just vaulted to the top of the list. 😛

[sub]p.s. booooooooo **Eleusis** [/sub]

Aside from the top of the list, I’ve always been a big fan of…  
\*\* Gawd  
Tdn  
Mhendo\*\*

Bonus prize for **Dead Badger** who I think is the most on point poster on our board.

There are many others too, to bad we can’t name 20.

**Gingerof theNorth** because she’s lovely.  
**UrbanChic** because she and I are like minded when it comes to shopping.  
**BigGirl** because she tells it like it is.

I like a few other people too…🙂

The three people who have mailed me stuff; 2 for free and 1 at a ridiculously low price. Unfortunately my computer crashed and I lost all my Outlook contacts so I don’t remember two of their names :(.
