Hey, if she gets a new pic, I wants one too!
Although the deceased equine thrashing of the you know what continues, I must say nice one on the location NCB
This may help refresh your memory Waverly. Your post is almost at the bottom of page 4. Good story, good moral, and just plain good readin.
I don’t have specific reasons for a lot of these posters, but I’ll often read any posts I notice by:
Eve - class and humor rolled together and single-handedly turned my Halvsie thread around from a goofy story about a two-legged dog into something really fuckin’ funny
Esprix - who’s opened my eyes about some of my own prejudices when I didn’t realize I had any
Giraffe - another poster I find entertaining, and I’m still not sure what we were arguing about in a recent Pit thread about Not In Anger
Tars Tarkas - dude gave me a copy of the MST3K version of Track of the Moonbeast, immediately ensuring himself a spot in my will. Unfortunately the only thing of value I’ll have to bequeath him will be that same copy of Track of the Moonbeast.
iampunha - he may be a Braves fan, but he’s still fun to talk with
bobkitty - just cuz
Guinastasia - I don’t have a reason for this, I’ve just always liked reading Guin
Polycarp - the kind of Christian I’d like to be, but fall short
Jester - what the hell happened to him anyway?
That’s all I can think of now, I’ll probably add more to the list as I scan the boards and think, “Oh yeah, that guy! And her! Oooh, I can’t believe I forgot so-and-so!”
Cool - I’m fighting ignorance! Yay!
I also love Eve. She rules. Totally. What a lady.
Esprix
Heh, my wife doesn’t find me all that exciting, either.
Well, I’ll have to say the old scarab and and the Wang-ster just got me a little hot - in a good way! Kinda makes all those hours over the last few years worthwhile. (Well, not really. But SOMEONE has to try to fool me into thinking I have a life!)
I’ve never made any secret of the fact that I’ve got a thang for the lovely Ms. Eve.
A few posters have “excited” me in an unpleasant manner - so I generally try to avoid reading their posts. But, I’m far too much of a gentleman to name names…
I don’t know if they excite me, but I have appreciated the following:
Eve–Once she posted how she called a black man walking down the street a “bad mother fucker”. I lost it.
Quasimodem–Seems like such a genuine guy. We have much in common, especially when it comes to music.
Poly–Like everyone else, he has helped me out with my confused thoughts about Christ.
Zenster–Made an inspiring post in a very personal thread of mine.
S.A.L.–Satisfying Andy is one funny guy. I wish I would think of the things he comes up with.
I have to mention WolfMiester who single-handedly kept my Consecutive Number thread alive for about 2 weeks!
I love of all of you though!
Well, lemme think about this a sec, here…
Wang-Ka, Miller, and lieu are currently the top three on my “laugh until I hurt” list. Sauron and Scylla are both in the top ten as well. (I still mutter about the offensive uses of sporks, from time to time.)
If for nothing else, I treasure the SDMB, and this lot, for that. Laughs can be few and far between, lately.
Lobsang and NoClueBoy for some reason seem like opposite sides of the same coin, to me. Both can give me a chuckle, or keep me entertained, with Texan or British style. Can’t nail it down any better than that. But I just can’t seem to pass up a post by either one.
Quadgop and Polycarp are much too valuable, in terms of insight and information, to be ignored. They’re also on the “must read” list.
Some posters I’d like to see more from lately, Fenris and Max Carnage for sheer nostalgic comic book geeky-goodness, and Horseflesh for out and out insanity. (I will never think of Calvinball the same way again.)
And actually, I too could name about half the membership if I keep going, so I’ll wrap it up here.
But damn if this ain’t a fun place.
