Say Something Nice About The Babbler Above You
February 16, 2012 - 12:29am
Hey all!
I hope this is the right place to put this thread. Anyway, I've noticed since joining Babble that Babblers can really get at each other's throats sometimes. This is of course not unique to Babble, and it happens all the time on other Internet forums. On one of the other forums I'm on, to help with this sort of thing, we have a thread in which we basically just say nice things about each other, so I did a search here and couldn't find something like that, and since I couldn't find one, I'd thought I'd start one instead!
Basically, the person who posts will say something nice about me, and ten the person who posts after that will say something nice about them. And so and so on.
anyone interested?
CanadaApple, what a great thread idea! You must be a thoughtful, imaginative and all-round nice gyu. Not only will it remind us what we like about each other, it is a great way to boost my ego... (cue crickets)
Catchfire has dreamy eyes, like misty pools into which one can gaze endlessly........
Spec is a midnight golfer who doesn't slice very often. He doesn't mince words. And don't quote me but I'm pretty sure he runs ginger ale in his snowblower.
Fidel is a Habs fan.
Caissa's incessant flattery of Fidel is so charming.
....and the Unionist makes us strong.
a faithful Outremont NDP supporter even in their darkest hours before the Mulcair dawn
[meant for Unionist]
....
NDPP a tireless defender of his anti-interventionist views
Of all the Daves I've known, you are the Davest.
Rebecca, you are the west in the best!
And thanks for putting up with some of the less than best...
Unionist is my working class hero.
Boom Boom: quick with a smile and excellent musical taste!
Boom Boom: That's something to be! And my fellow Quebecer often expresses what I feel before I can find the words.
Ripple: Your effect (get it?) here is great - it comes from real-life involvement in the movement, that's so obvious - wanna see more of you!
I couldn't agree with Unionist more!
is what I find I say to myself quite often.
And say to all the world, “This was a man"
Julie, don't go!
God, I remember watching that in black and white when it was first performed. They were great!
Oldgoat gives me hope that one day I may be as wise and serene as him.
@Boom Boom: Makes good contributions to the NDP Leadership threads. = )
CanadaApple: Even nicer than the apple I used to tempt Eve.
There is no god but GOD, and zero is his profit!
God hasn't read Genesis.
Yeeaah. Anyways...thanks to God for including the eventual Big Rip as a pretty viable back up plan to getting rid of Capitalism...along with everything else apparently. But why quibble at this point. Good job...I mean...great job.
Caissa makes me want to learn chess all over again.
Slumberjack shines a powerful and eloquent light (can a light be eloquent?) on the evils of imperialism and the sins of its defenders.
I was shocked when GOD posted in a thread entitled, "Say Something Nice About the Babbler Above You."
For who shall be above Her?
Unionist makes my day that much better. The world is a better place because of unionists. We need more unionists!
I'd play chess with Boom Boom if he learned again.
Unionist gets my puns.
This entire thread has thus degenerated into blasphemy, for which only the ever so loyal and thoughtful Unionist can hope to be spared as a just reward for telling on everyone.
You're right. Tried to get into it, but it was just too unbelievable.
Unionist, I'm reputed to be omnipresent, remember?
