Angie: What I love about @Doc is knowing that he could be: a) legitimately earnest here, b) being sarcastic by saying that any of us are remotely funny (probably 100% true in my case), or c) gathering data to screw with us later. And I respect each of those. To answer the question - I don’t like people who are dumb. That sounds crappy - let me rephrase. I don’t like dumb people. If I purposely don’t fully deliver the punchline of a joke, the implication is supposed to be there for people who are smart to come up to the joke and meet me - we’re both then engaged, and it’s funnier that way. It annoys the crap out of me when someone comes in and tells the already-implied punchline and thinks they’re clever. (You’re not, Sharon.) Also, people who only go for the low-hanging fruit jokes - we get it, “That’s what she said” and cat memes were hilarious to you in 2005. Work on your act.

I've invented a new mental illness called Tripolar. But seriously, I think you're all funny. in general I like everybody...just get a little bitchy sometimes.

It's official, this thread can be retired. No way this could be topped.

Seriously guys, fine work. My keyboard at work will never be the same.

I think you're hilarious, and a wildcard, which is what I think is awesome about you!

Just ask if he has drinking sugar water and is that why his keyboard is sticky.
 
Pants and GTO, you guys out kicked your coverage by getting @Angie to join you in helping answer the mailbag questions. Even with Pants and Angie's undying but forbidden love it was still quite a coup for you to get her to answer this group of random questions.

Also I think Pants must have either got thrown out of or fired from Taco Tico to dislike that fine establishment as much as he does.

Thanks for another entertaining column to all 3 of you.

Aw, that's far too kind - you guys treat me too well. I'm just like everyone else, putting on my tiara one comb at a time.

But seriously - I'm sure the results (from me, anyway) are pure nonsense to anyone else, but I had fun!

It showed...and that's what makes these columns an entertaining read. Ya done good, Angie. :D
 
In regards to the Thurston comment. I’ve never yelled a name at the height of anything. Unless I am God or Christ, never had my name yelled either. Is this something people actually do?
I've heard my name mentioned a few times. It's amazing that somebody could blurt it out that quickly. To be honest, it was probably in reference to somebody else with the same name.
 
So, which would be the hardest name to spit out while excited:

1) Thurston
2) Thornton (@GTO's entry)
3) Thurgood

I guess you would likely either be exclaiming about #3 because you're hitting it with a Supreme Court justice, or because you're hitting it with a dead Supreme Court justice.
