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 )

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".

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.)

Yer bike, dude.
Got my learner's permit last week, and spent the weekend riding a street-certified Honda dirt-bike around the highways at the cottage. I'm hooked. Not so keen on trail-riding, but my Dad is (he used to race enduro) so I ride with him when he's around.
Nope, when I finally convince my wife that I'm not going to kill myself or force my 18-month old daughter to ride "those death-machines", I'll have an Harley in my garage.
Until then, all I got is other people's pictures.

I haven't read any of your posts here but the article about CListCtrl is a dummy piece of ignorance. I bet you haven't use the CListCtrl more than once and gave up. If you had spent time in reviewing control as much as writing an article about, it you 'll have made it up.

I never once said I don't like Indians. What I absolutely do not like are companies that outsource jobs from my country to any other country. I'm 100% sure that you would feel the same way if our roles were reversed.

Hmm...common sense, "colorful" speech that isn't simply a collection of curses, but has some truth behind it wrapped in a good sense of humor. Also your ability to put trolls back where they belong after they've acted out. And the Turkey Monkey you have for your "member picture", assuming you know where it's from...
Also i forgot to add, your big mean person facade, which is exactly that and not much more since you are a nice guy. But some people are too stupid to look at what's inside

Well, since I found myself in your blog, and you're inviting everyone to write something under this subject I guess I have to write something..
How about telling you what I don't like about you, or at least about your profile.. It's the creepy chicken with a chopped off head probably replaced by yours
