Ahhh, my loyal subjects. Here's your chance to expound on what makes me so damn likable.
I ask that the people who came here from the previous thread ("Why You Don't Like Me") please refrain from using this thread to say things like "Nothing", and similar puerile little gestures. Afterall, I've given you a podium for your feelings, and the thread topics should guide even those with the dimmist of wits to the correct thread.

Well, I'm bored so what the hell. I am often very entertained by your posts. Though I find I often have different views on some subjects, I always thought you have, at least, thought out your opinions on things... you're not just belching up crap you've heard from other people. I can respect anyone that's able to articulate and then maintain their own beliefs and not change just because they happen to be unpopular.

The fact that after you pissed me off once when I was a newbie egotistic CPian (at least I'm not a newbie anymore), I got to know you better through your posts and discovered that you're a likeable, intelligent human being, and that you remind me of me more than I'd like to admit (and probably you would too!).

You act like the little devil in my head ... you write things that I will not write ... but I might think and believe in some once in a while.
And you still have a sense of good measure, you offer more than just witty remarks and (as some people say) insults. Good Articles, and comments ( the "CListCtrl - one of the Blonde classes in MFC" and the water cooled stuff come to mind )

I like that you are a sweet, sensitive, caring individual, who is never afraid to go the extra mile to make someone feel welcome and special.

You know how to call a spade, a f*cking shovel. Especially when it is warranted. And to those who compain when you use it to beat someone over the head, likely they need a good whack as well.

I'm truthfully shocked that this thread is far out-pacing the other one, especially after last week. Of course, it's still early, and my biggest fans haven't yet stepped up with their comments. Damn these time zone issues...

Among other things, I like that you're clever enough to label these two threads in such a way that someone can respond positively without actually saying, "I like John Simmons", while forcing people who want to respond negatively to clearly indicate, "I don't like John Simmons".

Down deep, I'm honestly sensitive to the needs of everyone with whom I come in contact. It's just part of being a simply decent person.
By the way, I have some property in Florida i think might interest you...

Sorry, I sold that last week to some guy from Trivandrum (I wonder where that is, and what kind of problems he's gonna have getting it through Customs...).

Most of the time your posts are pretty bloody amusing. Your recent classic response to some sad Linux zealot was hilarious reading.

Imagine Simmons in Holland! He would be roaring down a strip of road, in his Nascar, bordered by hundreds of windmills all frantically tilting as far back from the road as they could.
"Brother Windmills, tilt! tilt! The phrophecied Simmons has arrived! Fear ye your ground corn, tilt tilt!"

You use Windows.
* Wow, I see other people are taking these two threads seriously. You should get your own show Simmons. The John Simmons Show; Where you get not to vent your anger at your amnesiac, lesbian step-mother who was born in a trailer park but at John Simmons himself. First up we have Jerry Springer to give John some tips on how to start a chair throwing, hair pulling fight.

I thought Geraldo had the famous chair throwing incident. He got is nose broken.

Geraldo
Who the heck is Geraldo? Geronomo's half-brother?
Actually. The only Jerry Springer I have seen is from Austin Powers. The rest I have heard from friends and reviews. Was Geraldo a lesbian or a gay KKK member?

Holy crap, Geraldo is something to everyone:
- a satanic ritual abuser
- a patriot
- a journalist
- a wrestler
- an actor (or tress, it is not clear)
- a volunteer
- a man of double-standards
- a mind controller
- a tomb raider
- a hacker
- and most dispecably "a talk show host"
Thanks for the informative link Jon, that article told me a lot about Geraldo (thought I did have to click next quite a few times to get to the last page.)
