Inspired by [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=190937), I wanted to start a love-in thread where people could show their appreciation for other dopers. Come in and spread the love, people!

I will start with:

I love **lieu** (erm… in a brotherly way) for being such a stand-up guy, and for posting some of the funniest one-liners I have read on the boards. Why none of his poop stories have been published on Teemings I will never understand. He sounds like the kind of guy you would ask over to babysit your kids, based purely on his posts.

I love **Guinastasia** for having a hard outer shell with a soft and creamy filling. She fights the corner for justice and decency in the pit and contributes her pearls of wisdoms in the other fora, also. Chip beneath the surface and you will find sweet caramely goodness.

(oh, and I love **lel** also!) 🙂

I would spread the love, but I’m still taking antibiotics from the last time. 😃

Seriously, though, I don’t think I can single out anyone for special recognition. I think y’all are great (especially those 5/03 HouDopeFest attendees).

Wasn’t there a thread exactly like this a few weeks/months ago?

To be quite honest I am in awe of **most** dopers for being wittier than me.

And **Q.E.D** for being willing to help almost anyone with anything.

But I despise that **Lobsang** fella! That guy can sure talk shite at times!

Hey! I’ll not have you talking about **Lobsang** that way, **Lobsang**! Just back off…from… well, yourself… Ow, my head hurts.

Oh, and I like everybody on the Dope. All together, it works.

I have to second the \*Lieu’s \* one liners are works of art.

And Art is suing Lieu for plagarism!

[droll laughter] Ha ha ha ha ha

I’ll shut up now and wait for someone to just _gush_ about me {batting eye lashes}

[Here](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=175132&highlight=akat%2A) is the thread that **Lobsang** is referencing. All the stuff I said in that thread still holds true.

Well thanks **samarm** , that’s mighty neighborly of you. Like others have said there are simply so many contributors here that enrich our day on an hourly basis with their insight, wisdom and humor that it’s near impossible to mention them all. The entire board is one impressive collection of personalities. I’m thrilled that, with respect to their thoughts, they are compelled to share their privates with us so freely.
