A thread in which I rip off Squirtle

[Red Hot Thumbtack In The Eye 0]

Took you long enough

[CanadianChick 0]

What the hell, rate me.

Off-topic: I think you want "Sic Transit" not "Sic Transent".

Whoops. Thanks.

HarleyQuinn - I gotta admire a dude who'll just give himself a feminine name and not give a fuck. In fact, I think I remember him saying something about being bisexual, and some dudes were into it, and he was like "I'm a guy." That's pretty funny. Now, normally I would be against the attactment to a comic character, but it's not anime, so that's ok, and it's not like he's talking about jerking off to cartoons. It's ok if he does, I mean, I get those feelings about Daria sometimes, but the point is, HarleyQuinn has adopted a cartoon familiar in the least annoying way I've seen. He and I have pretty little in common, so it seems like I shouldn't like him, but he's cool with me. Summary: Someone it doesn't seem like I should like, but I do. Grade: B-

 

CanadianChick - I feel sorry for her sometimes, because I'm not even paying attention and it seems like somebody is making some hackneyed innuendo like every other day. Even in this very thread. That shit would irritate me. CC usually posts good stuff. I can't ever remember disagreeing with her, except about her taste in music. She's managed to be "one of the guys" unlike some of the other girls here, which is good. She looks a lot like a cousin of mine. Summary: The ideal female in a place it doesn't seem like there would be any. Grade: B+

[Guest FrigidSoul]

I could still careless about the grade but I am curious what kind of synopsis I would get. Thus gimme a synopsis and hold the grade.

 

I personally still feel CC is an A+. The last convo we had in AIM where we spoke of trading a certain board member to Canada and in return the U.S. would take Test and somebody else was great.

[Dr. Tom 0]

What the hell, I'll ask for a grade, too.

 

BTW, I always learned it as "Sic transit gloria mundi," but it's been a while. It's still one of my absolute favorite phrases in Latin.

[The Kid 0]

Fine, rate me.

Which of course is a good reason why I should give her that grade.

IDRM might have to pull his punches on the next person... Don't wanna piss off the Super Mod.

[Giuseppe Zangara 0]

IDRM is far more giving than I am.

[Kardo 0]

Rate me then.

FrigidSoul - Quite the strange fellow in his own way. He has sometimes taken things far too seriously, and has a strange obsession with talking to people on the phone. He likes to respond with well thought out, rational responses to offhand quips. Into explaining the motivation for everything he does. Sometimes comes off paranoid that other posters don't like him. Will probably ask me to explain all these statements. On the plus side, he seems to think rather highly of me. Our conversations have always been interesting. His style fits in well with TSM. He usually takes it pretty well when he's insulted. Took my comparison of him to Bad Ronald in stride. Frigid and I share some common interests. Summary: I like him, a lot of people probably won't, but he definitely fills a niche here. We need unpopular people who post well enough, generally enjoy themselves, and won't get banned. The board would fall apart without them. Grade: n/a

 

Dr. Tom - Tom's a pretty urbane guy for a wrestling message board. I find him to be generally well informed regarding whatever subject may be at hand. To me, Tom is the best of the more visable mods. He has a fairly cool head and lets the petty stuff slide. He doesn't give a shit about flaming, which I admire. He does have the occasional tendency to be overly wordy. He may seem less so because of his association with Marney who is the same way but to a far greater degree. He has a somewhat strange array of colloquialisms. Tom sometimes strikes me as someone who would backhand his newspaper and say something like "Poppycock! I've quite had my fill of this claptrap." Summary: Sometimes loquacious, but by and large decent and knowledgable fellow. Grade: A-

 

The Kid - The Kid and I have a past. He used to be my bitch. I can sort of see where the CWM and Agnes thing comes from because we were a little like that. He's good with graphics too, made some cool stuff for me. I never really saw him in you know, serious conversation, but he was always fun to have around. I just haven't seen him do anything in a long time. Summary: Kind of a sidekick, pretty cool. Grade: B

[Nighthawk 0]

IDRM is far more giving than I am.

Indeed. I sometimes find myself to be too accepting. It's why I listen to so many different genres of music.

 

I'm done for the night. I'll get you tomorrow, Kardo.

[Sass 0]

I'm interested.

 

Grade away IDRM.

[Guest Agent of Oblivion]

Eh, someone might as well grade me, and you're nicer than Squirtle.

[PLAGIARISM! 0]

Care to grade me? I imagine I'm of little consequence, but I like Sparks.

[Guest Agent of Oblivion]

I've always been wary of Sparks, since I've never heard anyone but you talk about them. While you like DEP and Primus, which are two of my favorites, however you are a lover of Morrissey, whom I would not hesitate to beat with a shoe, should I ever encouter the guy.

[PLAGIARISM! 0]

It's an English thing.

[Ed Wood Caulfield 0]

Hey, go ahead and grade me IDrinkRatsMilk.

[Spaceman Spiff 0]

Hey, go ahead and grade me IDrinkRatsMilk.

Oh, this ought to be good...

[Dr. Tom 0]

Tom sometimes strikes me as someone who would backhand his newspaper and say something like "Poppycock! I've quite had my fill of this claptrap."

That's awesome.

 

I would say "rubbish" instead of "claptrap," but that's still awesome.

Kardo - Posts mostly in places I don't frequent. I sort of remember him because he said he was into rave/techno/trance scene, and there's very few people here who listen to that shit (I'm one of them). I also remember his feminine thighs. I searched for his posts, and found nothing of note really, but he did get his name changed. Maybe I knew him better by his previous name. Summary: Nothing wrong with him, but nothing particularly good that I can see either. Grade: C

 

Sass - I've seen Sass, when it comes to two subjects (comic books and wrestling) straight up give lectures. I mean, he's into it, really knows his shit. I'm somewhere between admiration, pity, and perhaps fear. He's delved pretty deeply into the history of things on these boards as well. Sass is also quite congenial, one of the nicer guys I've encountered around here. He gave me an mp3 of the Magnum TOKYO theme once, and I hear he's pretty good about doing things like that for a lot of people. In short, in terms of value to the board, Sass is what you'd call a perfect poster. He's very knowledgeable and resourceful in the ways of the board, subjects of common interest, not a prick about it, and generous about imparting his information. He happens to be heavy into stuff I'm light into, so our paths don't cross too often, but I appreciate what he does. Summary: The kind of guy message boards were invented for. Grade: A

 

Agent of Oblivion - Cool guy. All things considered, he's probably the poster most like myself, and another of the short list I could see myself knowing in real life. His tastes run parallel to mine in many ways, and I find his posting to be largely insightful and well considered, with a sly and cleverly tasteless wit. I like the way he's not apologetic about anything. Scary and disturbing, but not in a way that makes you want to get away from him. Summary: Well adjusted psycho. Grade: A+, plus for the 50 or so bands he's gotten me listening to, directly or indirectly.

 

SaturnDayNiteLive - SDNL's name conjures up thoughts of drinking to me. A drunken Englishman has a certain charm which most other drunks lack. He does like Sparks, and Sparks are interesting. In fact, SaturnDay's entire taste in music is interesting. Not good, or bad, but his music has character. SDNL himself has character. He is a character. Many things about him make him seem like a pulp fiction character, or perhaps someone from a trendy movie with multiple plotlines which somehow intertwine at the end. I don't know him too well personally, but I like him. He usually has something interesting to say. Summary: Fun guy who keeps it real. Grade: B+

 

The #1 MST3K Mark - Well, this is an interesting case. On the one hand, SKBF (I'll refer to him by this name, it's easiest) is one of the most notoriously stupid people here. He's spouted some of the most inanely juvenile political rhetoric you could imagine. He talks out of his ass regularly. He wanted to burn a cd... without a cd burner. That really speaks for itself. On the other hand, he has provided, through said idiocy, some of the most entertaining moments in the history of the board. Of course, SKBF isn't without his positive side either. He does have rather good taste in television shows, for the most part. He actually has pretty well rounded, if shallow, taste in music. He doesn't get too bent out of shape from the vicious and indeed well deserved mockery he has received. And he has seemed to settle down recently. We've spoken on aim, and he's a nice guy, just maybe somewhat simple. I'd often just openly make fun of him and he'd pretend not to notice, or maybe it just went over his head. But I think it's better to be an idiot than an asshole. He's not an asshole. He is, good or bad, an integral part of the board. Summary: A none to bright kid who gave us several classic board memories. Grade: Hm... D+ personally, A+ for what he caused

The #1 MST3K Mark - Grade: Hm... D+ personally...

Are you fucking serious?

[Sass 0]

When I'm interested in something, I want to know everything about it.

 

If I can help "educate" folks along the way then that's cool. It helps create discussions and I like talking about stuff with people that also share the same interests that I have with something.

 

You're good people IDRM.

 

Thanks.

The #1 MST3K Mark - Grade: Hm... D+ personally...

You are a glutton for punishment. Read your review again. I don't want to have to break character and tell you that I graded you lower than you deserve for fun.

[Slayer 0]

Grade yourself, Mr. IDRM

[Nighthawk 0]

I did that already. I found myself whimsical.

[Slayer 0]

You didn't assign an actual grade though </anal>

[Nighthawk 0]

Well, what could I give myself? An A would mean nothing, an F is a joke that doesn't make you laugh.

Good point

 

Here, I'll grade you...

Not like you know who I am, but what the hell, grade me.
