Using this definition I want to have a poll on who is the wittiest poster on SF.
wit·ty (wt)
adj. wit·ti·er, wit·ti·est
1. Possessing or demonstrating wit in speech or writing; very clever and humorous.
2. Characterized by or having the nature of wit; funny or jocular: a witty saying.
3. Quick to discern and express amusing insights or relationships.
4. Entertainingly and strikingly clever or original in concept, design, or performance:
Of course, I will be first in the poll. I will be astounded ( and greatly gratified ) if I win. But I'd say it's a super long shot. I'm too dry, wordy, and always strive to be accurate. And sadly when I attempt to be witty, it's 50-50 that if falls flat.
I'm also going to nominate the usual suspects, Vox, RJman, Fuuma, Piobaire, Manton, FNB, T4age, aportnoy, teacher, romafan, and dakota rube.
And of course there is "others, please comment" which I hope will garner a lot of interest.
My vote goes to Vox. Though I wish he were more serious at times I give him the nod.
AAMOF: One of the most prominent and Big Time members of SF ( who I absolutely will not reveal, don't ask ) has compared Vox to Noel Coward ( some of you are too young to remember but Coward was a pretty witty guy ).
But forget Vox, let the battle begin.
