How Well Do You Really Know Your Fellow RFers?

[Sunstone]

I'm not sure how I got this impression from just knowing him on the net, but I've long thought of @idav as someone who'd make a very loyal friend.

Close enough!

The week Rick was visiting me, the temperature dropped to something like 20 below (with windchill), and a foot or more of snow fell. Rick decided to walk through that weather two miles to the nearest grocery store, and two miles back without a word of complaint -- and he didn't even think it was admirable of him at all that he was hardy enough to do that! Rick is tough as nails.

He's a cool dude phil, you both are.

@Songbird is no longer an active poster, but I've got to mention that she has long struck me as etirely admirable for her down-to-earth, solid good sense, and compassionate nature -- among other things.

I think Ymir is quite a confident person and very knowledgeable of life. His signature is an indicator of that

He's a cool dude phil, you both are.

Thank you so much! Coming from someone with such good judgment about people as you, that is quite a fine compliment. I'm honored!

 

[Sunstone]

@LuisDantas has risen above a hellish early life to become a humane, kind, and beautiful person.

 

[Sunstone]

@Debater Slayer in my opinion is admirable in the way he's come from behind in his academic studies to now excel in them -- all the while fighting depression. This despite the appalling fact his "sense of humor" tends towards the vile and wholly reprehensible activity of punning.

 

[Sunstone]

The rascally @Terese is among the gentlest humans I've ever had the pleasure of verbally abusing. Were she the norm for humanity, rather than merely one of its ideals, there would be no murders, no wars, no genocides, but an awful, awful lot of shamelessly well-spoiled pet dogs (she can't get enough of the critters).

How well do you really know your fellow RFers?

I suspect most of us know each other less than we think we do. So, in this thread, name something about a fellow RF that you think is true. Preferably something that makes them stand out of the crowd of humanity! Then, if they wish, they can respond by telling you whether you were right or not.

Remember: Keep it positive to stay within RF rules (except when speaking of that rascally @Terese! You don't have to keep it positive then!).

I've heard that you go to Wisconsin on the sly to eat warm cheese curds.

 

[Sunstone]

@Sunstone is apparently hellbent and determined to almost single-handedly create the longest thread on RFers in the whole history of the Forum. Come on, Folks! I need some help here! Start posting!

 

[Sunstone]

Although I am not all that familiar with the field, my best guess is that @Vouthon almost certainly qualifies as a genuine scholar of Catholic mysticism. He also strikes me as deeply spiritual and wonderfully good humored.

 

[Sunstone]

It seems to me that, more than most of us, @lewisnotmiller strives to be fair to all sides in any debate.

 

[Sunstone]

@fantome profane strikes me as among the more politically astute folks posting on RF.

 

[Sunstone]

@Sunstone is really getting annoyed he's almost the only one posting in this thread. Y'all could be a lot more helpful here, you know.

 

[Sunstone]

I think @Altfish is yet another politically astute RFer. It seems to me he's both thoughtful and objective, and routinely sees beneath the surface of things.

 

[Sunstone]

@ADigitalArtist, @Quagmire, @Debater Slayer, and @Quintessence are four of the best admins I've seen in my nearly 14 years on this Forum, and @Brent W is perhaps the best head honcho this Forum has seen since it's founder @Rex. Just so you all know. This Forum is so lucky to have them. Almost as lucky as it has been to have me. Almost!

 

[Sunstone]

Again and again over the years, @9-10ths_Penguin has astonished me with his sharp logic and critical thinking. It's such a pity he's such a poor race car driver, they always make him sit in the passenger seat and let someone else drive. Tsk. Tsk.

 

[Sunstone]

Even though he doesn't come online much anymore, @Mr Spinkles is one of RF's genuine geniuses. Among other accomplishments, Eric has a doctorate in physics, and -- in my opinion -- huge personal integrity. He also once wrote RF's most passionate openly posted love letter in the history of the Forum to another RFer (whose username I can no longer recall). The two later on married.

Wizenda is getting better at using human language to comunicate

 

[Sunstone]

What's it going to take to get the rest of you to chime in here on this thread? Am I going to have to shame you all into participating? Come on now! This isn't nearly as much fun as it could be if you guys would start posting!
