Admirer from afar, here. **Esprix’s** posts are always to look out for, worth reading – an’ all sorts of other nice stuff everyone else has said. Go, **Esprix** , go! ---

I’ll always check out an Esprix thread - one trick pony or not, that boy is a _damn_ good poster. Even if he doesn’t know who the hell I am, I’ve gotta put forth my kudos - you rock! ---

Um, ok, the Gay Guy is blushing here… **Rasa** , **Sterra** , **dpr** , **Ice Wolf** , **Living Dead Girl** , I can’t thank you enough - you’re all being too kind. I just do my part and enjoy myself, and I’m really touched people think so highly of me. A pleasant way to start the day. 🙂 Esprix ---

Hi everybody! First-time caller, long-time listener. I like Esprix. His posts are smart and funny. They make me want to promote the Gay Agenda. ---

Well, um, {ahem}, yes, but I don’t discuss those things here anymore. Every time I do, I always seem to get berated for it. It seems I post less and less of my personal life here anymore… And, thank you, **Giraffe** , for the kind sentiments. Esprix ---

My family and I were settling in Texas when a wild bunch of Commanches on a war path approached us. We circled the wagons and prepared for the worst. It was then that he appeared out of the nowhere with a look so serene it was almost angelic. “Those peacemakers in your holsters are not needed on this day” He pointed at his heart “This is the only peacemaker you’ll need today.” And so the Commanches and my family realized that we had much in common and no real desire to hurt one another. And we all became good friends over a tall cool bottle of saspirilla. Marc PS: Ok, I’m going overboard. But Esprix is ok in my book. ---

**Esprix** rocks! The “Ask the gay guy” series was most informative and entertaining (but every question I had had already been asked and answered by the time I got there, dammit!:mad: Darn you all with your “timely” and “pertinate” questions! Darn you all to heck!). 😉 BTW: one time, **Esprix** appeared to me in a dream: ‘Astroboy’ he said in a weird and quavery ghosty-voice, ‘Don’t eat the tuna! Dooon’t eat the tuuuuuuna!!!’ I woke up, and thought, ‘Huh.’ And made a tuna-fish sandwich. It turned out that the tuna had gone bad, and I spent the next 3 days camping out on the toilet. So, thanks for nothin’, **Esprix**! You coulda told me it was bad!! Jerk. ---

_donning bitchy queen persona_ Okay, enough with all the nice already, let’s give the boy a tiara and call him queen of the dopers… _sudden look of shock_ Oh my gawds, that would mean he would be ruling by divine right, what have I gone and done now? ---

Not jumping on the Esprix bandwagon or anything but I’ve always enjoyed his posts. Whatever forum he posts in he either has me laughing my ass off, thinking profoundly, and sometimes even thinking man I wanna be him (yeah yeah I’m straight). Seriously though way back when I first started to come to the boards Esprix’ posts always stood out to me. He’s wonderful and he is an absolute commodity that this board would be worse off without. Esprix I salute you! And evidentally you do rock 😉 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/the-esprix-appreciation-thread/67896.md?page=1)
