I'll deny this if asked about it later...

[Orrex]

But Warpy is IMO the most consistently excellent poster on DU. Every post is insightful, to-the-point, and solidly on the rational side of any issue.

I mean, I'm super-cool, to be sure, but Warpy consistently hits it out of the park.


I will hereafter deny making any assertion to that effect, of course...

1. Warpy is excellent

I have started to follow her strategy for not letting woos aggravate the hell out of me..Pop in put in my 2 cents and leave...so as not to get involved in flame wars.
Also, Warpy has some of the best snark ever..Especially in the Health Scare Forum.
As for the umm claim of your super coolness...Well..not quite as cool as DuStrange I should say who can use mathematical equations to describe DU members....:P

[varkam]

2. I agree.

I've long since admired Warpy's intelligence, ability to articulate complex points, and fairness in dialogue. It's a shame I don't have any of those traits :)

[TZ]

3. Not true

You are as good as her in your arguments. And I would venture to say, extremely persistant!
BTW, next time I see one of your witty locks I am gonna nominate it for a DUZY (of which our friend Warpy has won a few):)

[varkam]

4. You know, I've never won a DUzy.

How do you win one, anyway?

[TZ]

5. Someone has to nominate

you by sending it to JeffR. You do some really good stuff in Health though, and that tends to get ignored. And here, too, which if I could I would nominate half the snarky posts here.

Oh and if Warpy should read this...I forgot to mention that the other day in the Lounge (which she doesn't read) someone did mention that she was their favorite "poison pen" DUer.....:D

[Orrex]

7. The Lounge is disproportionately represented in the DUzy nominations

Granted, a lot of funny stuff goes on there, but a lot of side-splitting posts show up in other groups and forums without ever getting appropriate notice. I should disclaim also that I've won several DUzies for Lounge posts that I found tepidly amusing at best, so there's really no guessing the whims of the crowd.

A great many of your posts IIRC are in the Health forum, which seldom shows up in the DUzy awards. Not that your snark isn't funny, of course!

9. i do think

that groups should be able to nominate them. I mean, it's easier to be funny in a small group of people; in a massive, fast-moving forum like the Lounge, really funny threads get lost quickly in the white noise of cat threads, what are you listening to?, and ask me anything threads. Not to hate on the lounge, it's my other hang out, or at least used to be (a lot of the old crew is gone now).

The only problem would be that a lot of the funny stuff in here, for example, is mocking woos. I'm not sure how the general DU population would take that

19. I've won DUzys for the dumbest things.

The problem, Varkam, is that your not low brow enough. You have to be little less clever, and lot more dumb...like your old pal Evoman.

[TZ]

20. More of a perv too

I suppose..yeah I read about how much you like college life!;-)

[LeftishBrit]

16. I agree that both Warpy and Varkam are GREAT posters!

And must also nominate Cosmik Debris for DUzy-worthy use of cartoons in response to a certain Dr. Google a little while ago!

[lizerdbits]

6. Agreed

Do we have a snarky smack down award?

[realisticphish]

8. Apparently

Warpy also has nude photos of you with a platypus ;)

[Warpy]

10. I told you not to mention that until the book comes out.

I'm lucky no one has managed to invent a system that would allow a hand to come through the screen and throttle me.

Thanks for the good words. Now I have to go puncture my head.

[realisticphish]

11. Trepanation?

Let us know how that goes...

[LeftishBrit]

15. No, no, all you need is CHELATION

We know that cures everything!

[Orrex]

12. I dare you to tell me that you've never been photographed with a monotreme.

Duck-billed or otherwise.

[realisticphish]

13. of course I have

who hasn't?

I just keep the photos safe.

[uberllama42]

14. I know I'm always exited when I see Warpy's name among thread responses

We're lucky to have such a poster here.

[trotsky]

17. Add me to the Warpy fan club.

A fellow battle-tested Health Scare Forum vet!
:toast:

[Evoman]

18. Warpy makes me feel funny in my danger zone.

:evilgrin:

21. Deny all you want, I have evidence....

Edited to add:

In fact I'm bookmarking this post right now. :P
