KSB2424 3,087 Posted December 30, 2009 While all worthy canidates in their own way, my vote goes to the person that most personifies the Geek Club (to me). And that person is :drumroll: Gutterboy - He's crass, he's an ass. He's a silverback with a big post count and still will show up today. The pic of him riding the kitty is Geek lore. When he is actually serious he seems rather intelligent, and can be helpful. His handle personifies the whole lot of us for crying out loud. The biggest asshole message board on the internet should have it's biggest asshole as it's winner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Big_Pete 0 Posted December 30, 2009 wow, there are quite a few worthy candidates. Wiffleball is great, but he's dropped off recently, plus, he tends to only post political crap for the last few years, which greatly diminishes his ability to bring the funny. Rusty WAS a funny guy, who started some all-time great threads (paying for pizza with a check), and he still posts, so that's great, but his quality seems to have taken a dive brinett9 doesn't post here anymore. While he can bring the funny, his posts are mostly forgettable. I could not tell you a single quote from him without using the search function. GOTD requires a lasting stamp on this place, and if I have to resort to the search feature, he didn't leave a bold enough stamp. Sux is a fantastic poster. Not only does he make fun of everyone here, but he also makes fun of himself. There is something really likable in a person who uses self-deprecating humor. He hasn't been around these parts for long though, and that can definitely hurt his chances. It's the HOF debate all over again. Do you give it to a guy who had 10 really good years? Or 4 great years? Sux falls into this debate. phillybear has always brought the funny. He still posts here regularly, and he's brought us the "good morning geeks :furious:" threads. Those always brighten up our day, and it gives other geeks the chance to say something nice to him in those threads, which pisses him off. He has gotten kinda cheery lately, and he's lost some of his spunk. Maybe it's cause he's dying. Maybe it's cause he's a 1 trick pony with his "I hope you die in a puddle of AIDS" schtick. who knows. kutulu consistently brings the funny. He always wins the drafts, and was GOTY before (I think). Plus he always uses a well placed banana when we need it. Besides Emoticon Only Poster, kutulu is the best emoticon poster here, and that can't go unnoticed. kutulu has also grown as a poster by introducing his as a solo post. combine his always hilarious wit and banter with a well placed banana and wave, and you have quite a formidable candidate. However, there can only be 1 Geek of the Decade. All the aforementioned candidates are worthy, yet only 1 of them can win. My vote for Geek of the Decade goes to: WHO CARES WHO CARES alsokutuluifyouretooretardedtogetthatfromthedancingbananas Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Observer 641 Posted December 30, 2009 I love the fact that this isn't a poll where people can just bring out their aliases to slant the results. Anyone getting a vote this way is truly respected by at least one other member. That's the way it should be. Christ, this would be Rusty, GiantsFan, and Edjr in a runaway if it was just an alias contest. That being said, I really respect most of the members who were recocgnized as finalists. A very worthy cast of Geeks. With that, I have to cast my vote. NewbieJr- This guy has been here since the first half of the decade (2004) and I've watched him grow from a timid poster who got the majority of his posts in the Music thread where you'd name a song that had a word from the last title posted (remember that thread?), to a thoughtful, kind, humorous poster who shows compassion for the less-fortunate (Sux and his grassless yard) as well trying t combat the Limbaugh-repeaters that try to infiltrate our lovely community. I've watched him battle the old ornery guys like Swerski and Drobeski, as well as befriend the nice guys like BiPolarBear. He's shared his humor (The Geek Animations) and his hardships (The very honest unemeployment thread). He's shared his expertise of music and lovemaking and has shown pictures of his hot wife. And for the ladies, he's offered photos that show his boyish good-looks and Adonis-like physic. He really offers something for everyone. And that's why I cast my vote for Geek of the Decade to NewbieJr. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KSB2424 3,087 Posted December 30, 2009 Most people want anonymity. Why? If somebody cares that much about who the fock they vote for then they need to get a life. Holy Fock. It's a GOTD vote, not a coming out of the closet thread. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
