I like glatt.
He always puts some thought into things and has an interesting angle, and I often think that his comments/opinions are something like what I would have said. He's friendly and engaging, he isn't over-sensitive, and he remembers the good inside jokes.
I always click on new comments by glatt regardless of whether I'm following the thread. I also do this for Clodfobble, Happy Monkey, and Undertoad, for similar reasons. Surely for others I can't think of at this moment, as well.
I can't think of anything I don't like about glatt, and that isn't due to a lack of his speaking up on things. He's just an all-around good guy.
Feel free to add your own positive comments about people:
I've always enjoyed xobruce's contributions. He consistently brings level headed thoughts and defuses controversial subjects with quick, short wit.
hey, thanks Flint. :blush:
I like you too, and not just because of this flattery. You often have a refreshing viewpoint and your posts are usually funny and outrageous. Often you go off on some crazy tangent that I would never even think of. And it's usually pretty good. Even when I think you are off in left field, I get a kick out of your posts. I remember when you fist galloped through town, tearing the place up. I wasn't sure about you then, but I'm glad you stuck around.
I always read every post by Clodfobble and Happy Monkey and can't argue with anything either of them have ever said. They seem to always make only valid points. But are nice about it. You don't hate them because they are always right. I like most people here, and value their posts.
I always read everything by Happy Monkey even though I know I'll never agree with any of it. While his views are 180 degrees from mine he is intelligent and thoughtful in his reasons for his views and it is always good food for thought.
Clodfobble I always read because she is rarely posts pointless "me too" comments and there is always something important in her posts.
Flint I always read if I see him in a political or current event thread because he usually presents a logical point but with a left field approach.
Impress in the WTF? threads... just cuz.
~i like glatt with new minty flavor crystals~!
I read everybody for the most part, but I do have my favorites. SG, because her posts are always so warm and inviting and she can tell a really good story. Hung Like Jesus, because his Steven Wright type humor always makes me lol. Monster, because I like her radical yet really approachable style. Dana, because her 'socialist' agenda is based on a very real and human agenda.
Damn, I have more but no more time right now.
I like LJ's depiction of glatt in the collage. This is a combination of glatt's natural good looks and LJ's awesome collage idea.
I agree with glatt about flint.
that's one of my favorite faces too
not feces.....faces
lets all go to glatt's profile and leave messages for him!
cmon guise!
Ironically, as I was viewing Glatt's profile, I noticed that he happens to be a member of the group 'Flint Haters'
Isn't that a fine how do ya do?
Better than looking like a dead rat, I suppose.
He also used to be a bed-wetter.
I like Elspode. Many things about his life are about as far as you could get from my personal experiences, yet I can always relate to his posts. And there's usually something I can learn from within them.
I like Shel, 'cause he cracks me up.
This place is like a dysfunctional Reader's Digest. I love everyone's posts :)
I like what I call the "step up" factor in teh Cellar.
That's when a poster steps up and makes an incredible post in a topic that I wasn't necessarily expecting.
What I like about it is that nearly every one of the regulars and some of the not so regulars scores a "step up" post every so often. I like this a whole lot better than a handfull of prectictable "I know everything and feel obliged to provide an all-encompassing and concluding answer to every thread" posters and a hoard of "I just post to jack my thread count" posters.
The diversity of expertise and insight around here is uncommon in internet forums. Very uncommon.
Matter of fact, we could start our own University.
I like jinx
a lot
Lost an argument last night, huh?
I always click on wolf, els, clod, dana, cherry, flint, foot, monster, beestie, UT, .... man, there are a lot of them...these are people i follow whether I'm following the thread or not. Of course, the most polticially correct thing to say is, "I LIKE EVERYBODY!" even though it's not true.
I don't dislike TW but I can't follow, so don't read, his posts. Same for other people - not that I dislike them, just can't be arsed to give them time.
I like jinx
a lot
coz of her mighty ass? :)

Shawnee's first ghost post.
kewl.
...I like Shel, 'cause he cracks me up.
Hee...a cracked Shel. :-)
I love Pie. Take that as you will.
And i love everybody!
Lost an argument last night, huh?
NO...
seriously...in this ass-kissing thread, hers is the one that occurs to me to praise. both literally and figuratively.
forget my bias....she's very concise and witty, always puts relevant links and quotes in her posts, never talks shit about things she doesn't know(like I do), never flames needlessly, can be serious cat or happy fun time poster, participates in the fun stuff, and is usually positive.
I rely on her commentary of the threads I never read, and trust her opinion implicitly.
AND! I didn't lose any arguments with her....I know better than to argue.
. . . prectictable "I know everything and feel obliged to provide an all-encompassing and concluding answer to every thread"
Thank you. It's nice to know my efforts are noticed and appreciated.
"I just post to jack my thread count"
I, personally, just jack to my thread count. YMMV.
Matter of fact, we could start our own University.
Yeah! Like.. umm... let me think... a Cellar College!!
Well, I like Wolf. Her posts are witty and picturesque. She's tough and I admire her. And of course, Elspode, mainly because he's such a flirt.
There's lots of others too, but I haven't got all day here. :p
There is absolutely nothing to not like about Glatt. That's pretty rare in a person.
Thank you. It's nice to know my efforts are noticed and appreciated.
You forgot to end with... "and this concludes the thread."
:D
HungLikeJesus and ZenGum have made me laugh unexpectedly more times than I can count. I never see them coming.
I like glatt too.
I also enjoy the contributions of pretty much everyone else here even though there are some I don't agree with.
...I often think that his comments/opinions are something like what I would have said.
This line doesn't make any sense. Actually what he does is states an opinion I share in a coherent way that I'm not capable of. Same thing many of you people do. I'm not good at saying what I mean.
Dana and Cherry and Shawnee are always saying, in an elegant, succinct and witty way, exactly what I mean. Clodfobble does this, too, as does monster. There are many others and I hate leaving people out. I learn from everyone, though, and that's why I am here.
The sheer amount of good vibes and support here is truly the miracle for me. On the whole, the cellar is a group of extremely intelligent and compassionate people. I feel lucky to be here.
And Flint is just crazy. :)
I'm still waiting for some of that to rub off on me.

What? The crazy?
That'd be a start anyway.

Shawnee's first ghost post.
kewl.
I've had 2,770 ghost posts.
I've had 2,770 ghost posts.
:ghost: posts are the kewlest. You can just put what ever you want in there. For example, I imagined Shawnee posting, "Oh, go fuck yourselves!" in that post. It's very liberating. More people should do them. It's a community service and cathartic.
It was my avant-garde commentary on the thread, like all popularity threads: a few people feel really good and a few more people feel really bad.
I mean come on, who doesn't like glatt? ;) Also, I am one who will tell people as I go along what they mean to me.
Having said that, I will say I have a lot of admiration for Dana. I think she's funny, level-headed, intelligent, and compassionate.
So there.
Haha, just noticed the tag for the thread.
we're on a wavelength today, Shawnee! weird, huh.
and see? I wasn't so far off in thinking it was "Oh, go fuck yourselves!"
:)
I'd like Glatt better if he'd drop the second T. It's just pretentious.

Maybe he's just a glatton for punishment.
Be careful. I'm not that far from you and I've been known to throw things at people for bad puns.

But would he still be kosher without the second 'T'?
Be careful. I'm not that far from you and I've been known to throw things at people for bad puns.
I'm not worried. Glatt told me you throw like a girl. :p
No, shel, you misheard. Must be a bad line or something. Glatt said Lookout throats like a girl.

Wanna play ball?

Sure. I have MINE. Where are yours? ;)

cumslut.;)
Wolf and Clod amaze me with their strength, insight, and consistent sense of humor depite their current foibles.
I want to marry Lookout or BigV in my next life (or both) because they seem to be pretty close to the male versions of me, just better informed on current events, which I envy as I am lazy in that arena. Or maybe I just don't care as much as I should?
Sheldon, Brianna and SG always make me smile, even if they're bitching.
Ibram makes me wish I still had that youthful optimism.
And LJ and UT amaze me with their patience with all of the bratty kids they babysit in here. Including me. Thanks guys.
And many others.......
cumslut.;)
Don't try and sweet talk me, you capitalist whore.
Don't try and sweet talk me, you capitalist whore.
You say that like it's a bad thing.....;)
That's 'cause he's a bad man. A very bad man. With a tophat and silver topped walking cane, and a stable of undernourished, overworked, orphan apprentices.
Don't try and sweet talk me, you capitalist whore.
SHAME ON YOU!!! Lookout's not a capitalist!
:D
Shhhh. That's my angle with Dana. Capitalists do it more. and more. and more. and
That's 'cause he's a bad man. A very bad man. With a tophat and silver topped walking cane, and a stable of undernourished, overworked, orphan apprentices.
Thats just the soccer team he coaches.
Their moms compensate me well for my time.
Sure. I have MINE. Where are yours? ;)
I have dozens, sitting in a closet I have converted into a shrine, floating in jars of formaldehyde. They are neatly placed and catalogued, and cross-referenced by: WHAT did they do to piss me off? HOW did I extract said balls from said jerk? Small balls, big balls, purple ones, hairy ones etc. It's an elaborate system I devised. Sometimes I sit in my chair and stare at them, and laugh and laugh.
Wanna come over and see them?
I think I love you Shawnee.
And I thought balls were just a Christmas treat! ;)

I'm putting this thread on report.
I like LJ. (There. Better?)
This thread has been reported.
I like LJ. (There. Better?)
not out of jealousy, out of disdain that you girls are talking about dismembered members in glatt's tribute thread. harumph
Hey glatt, do you feel you were sufficiently tributated before the inevitable thread drift?
Yes. Yes I do. This thread came out of nowhere and was a very pleasant surprise. The drift was even nice, because that's what all good threads should do. Thanks for all the compliments, everyone. This thread makes me happy, if not a little bewildered. You guys are awesome.
