Which shield award do you deserve?

[-Peacemaker-]

The shield can be a currently awarded or one that you feel needs to be created.
I'll go first:

shield of the lady's man: for exemplary accomplishments in pimpin'

shield of the jitterbug: for having better dance moves than any of RF's members...I'm talkin' to you Mystic

 

[Madhuri]

I deserve: Shield of the Goddess.
For being a kickass goddess.

 

[Revoltingest]

The Shield Of Bacon, of course!

 

[Wirey]

Blue Shield. I have expenses.

 

[Vinayaka]

Many of us deserve the 'tolerator of bad humour' shield.

 

[-Peacemaker-]

The Shield Of Bacon, of course!

What is your accomplishment with regard to bacon? Is it that you eat more of it than anyone else?

 

[Revoltingest]

What is your accomplishment with regard to bacon?
Is it that you eat more of it than anyone else?

Is that insufficient? I think not!
But I've also done more here as the Pontiff Of Pork, the Curate Of Cured Meats,
the Bishop Of Bacon, the Maestro Of The Maillard Reaction, & the Hauptman Of
Hogdom than anyone else here.

 

[Vinayaka]

Betcha cured penguin would make great fake bacon. It would be the mix of two loves.

 

[Revoltingest]

Penguins are for admiring, not curing.
Still.....

 

[Kilgore Trout]

I don't deserve any shields. I simply take what I want.

 

[Brickjectivity]

I deserve the shield of punishing peacemaker for starting this thread.

 

[BSM1]

I think I deserve the shield of invisibility. Oh wait...I already have it.

 

[Revoltingest]

Who said that?

 

[Brickjectivity]

Tell you what I DON'T WANT is the shield of the jester. Its supposed to encourage people to post funny stuff. So far it hasn't worked for anybody!

"Ladies man"? Based on the groping thread you are just lucky to be out of spike heels and mace range

Unlike a Nobel Peace Prize, the Shield Of The Jester is based upon
accomplishments rather than encouragement to do something.

What is this Shield thing, anyway?
I'm sorta new to RF, I don't even understand the point to frubals.
If I were a post **** like ******, why would I care about a 50k shield? My post count is just next to my post, every time. Looks like a badge saying "I have no life. I post on the Internet".

The rest of the shields are too tiny and enigmatic to look like anything more important than the medals on the chest of Saddam Hussein.
What is the point?

Funny you should mention this. I was briefly on the awards committee, but I resigned. Why, you ask?
- The Shield of the veteran is redundant. All can see the join date, the
frubal count, & the post count.
- The other awards are handed out like an adolescent popularity contest,
with some popular posters looking like decorated Prussian generals.
- We can let every individual out there in posterland judge us by our posts,
without some goon who works for The Man telling us what to think.

Does anyone really need to see my shields to know that I'm a chatty clown
with no life? And some might think I'm just some pitiful loser nerd who's
jealous of the popular kids. I'm not jealous.

 

[savagewind]

I'm not jealous. When I got my shield for 10,000 posts, all profound mind you, I didn't recognize myself. Still don't sometimes.
I deserve the loser award but they are too nice to make one of those. I even lose when I win. It's true.

And you like hostas and ferns. So do I. We're practically twins.
