But most 'specially:

Shirley Ujest  
Prairie Rose

I guess I should also say Neobican, huh?

In my mere month of experience on this board, I’d have to include some of my favorites so far, in no particular order:

David B  
CKDextHavn  
daniel p bostaph  
TennHippie  
slythe (mostly for his aid in a certain debate with—)  
Contestant #3 (whose paranoia is of admirable proportions)  
kellibelli

If I can remember anymore then I will post them. If you’re not on the list, I’m new, I’ll get to know you.

cher3, Dr. Fidelius,beatle, JLpicard…jeez, some of you folks sure have odd names to try to spell the way you do…

aw,shucks. i was avoiding this topic figured it would be a buncha old timers. How can I list mine, I’ll leave some out,and they won’t like me any more. You are all listed by others any way. I would like to suck up some and mention nick and dex, and the diva has zinged me good a few times. Most of all I would like to thank the \*\* GRICK! This is mr john’s computer.mr john is actually an ignorant,egotistical,redneck,TWIT! You should see the things he actually tries to post.It is I who am making the postings and it is not easy,having to come up with something at least semi intellegent, store his postings,display them on only his screen, change all your postings so they make sense to him.He actually thinks his name is listed here.\*\*one person truly responsible for this great honor,ME.

Gee, the list is long, but I’d have to say anyone who has ever disagreed with me. (You know who you are!) With a name like MrKnowItAll, I need all the humility I can get.

And now for a brief interruption.

I’m adding Diane and Stoidela to my list.

Thank you for your patience. Please continue sharing mundane, pointless stuff, if you must.

And Doobieous. And Omniscientnot. And Contestant #3. And Melin. And Guadere. And Mr. John.

I should’ve (that’s should HAVE, not should OF) just C&P’d the “I love EVERYONE” from my first posting.

BTW, whatever happened to Cessandra?

Thank GOD I finally made the list: must admit it was getting a bit crowded in that dark room with GregAtlanta and all those (not as yet out of the closet :)) others; that and all that crying and snivelling was driving me crazy!

Chris, you’ve crowned my week-end (although, deep down, I just know I’m not worthy).  
Big KISS!!

buncha people liked me in this thread, it’s definitely a keeper.

Also, Doobieous recently said he had no opinion of me after I had said I had none of him. Dang. Two years ago I was among his favorites…how quickly we forget!

I just wanted to comment: Isn’t it cute (regardless of how you feel about them personally) how Drain Bead mentions that Satan is one of her favorites?

However, I say that this cannot possibly be considered a vaild “favorite poster” thread since it began before I was registered so no one could include me on their list. But carry on.

I’m not going to give reasons for these, and I’m leaving people out, but here goes:

Tripler  
Persephone  
jarbabyj  
Medea’s Child  
hardy grrl  
Cartooniverse  
Morrison’s Lament  
matt\_mcl  
Coldfire  
iampunha  
Mercutio (this mainly because he’s a little shit-disturber and reminds me of me 10 years ago)

Ohhh, so many…

\*\* xenophon41 \*\* - He “gets” me and wasn’t afraid to say so.  
\*\* Ice Wolf \*\* - for the same reason, plus she’s just cool.  
\*\* Spiritus Mundi \*\* - Because he make me feel hopelessly inarticulate, which I am not crazy about, but in doing so manages to express perfectly what I’m trying to badly, which is great. He was my personal hero during the election debacle.  
\*\* RTFirefly \*\* - Just damn smart, unafraid, unapologetic, but not rude or mean.  
\*\* ChrisCTP \*\* - Even though I hardly see her around anymore.  
\*\* Hamadryad \*\* - Not much truck with her, but damn she’s amusing.  
\*\* elucidator \*\* - But of course…he rules my world.  
\*\* Gaderene \*\* Just fair. I like fair. Fair is good. Clear, too. Clear is also good. Also kind, and kind is good. Maybe Gadarene is just…good!  
\*\* RTA \*\* for providing me some company out on the liberal limb we’ve been known to hang on.  
\*\* Polycarp \*\* He knows why.

There’s at least two others that amuse me mightily on occasion, but since they both piss me off way too much, and have actually been really unpleasant to me more than once, I shan’t be giving them a place of honor on my list. [sub](Oh great, now everyone who was ever unpleasant to me - is going to think they’re really amusing…)[/sub]

Oh, and almost forgot: \*\* Pump Action Gerbil \*\* . 😃 He’s my absolute all-time favorite.

And OF COURSE I’m forgetting people, would I be human if I didn’t? Apologies to them…
