Title: Reasons We Like Saph Post by: Allinall on January 29, 2004, 10:21:49 AM Here's some reasons why I like Saph...
1. He's my brother in Christ! May not always agree, but if God has accepted him, then I do too! 2. He likes fantasy authors. Me too! 3. He like Lord of the Rings. Me too! 4. He has a very pessimistic outlook on life. Me too! (Sometimes) Why do you guys like Saph? Title: Re:Reasons We Like Saph Post by: Willowbirch on January 29, 2004, 11:56:39 AM I like him 'cause he's got that cool name, Sapphire W34pon...and 'cause he's not Goth...
Title: Re:Reasons We Like Saph Post by: JudgeNot on January 29, 2004, 12:33:34 PM You’ve heard the old Will Rogers saying ‘I never met a man I didn’t like’ – well Ol’ Will (God rest his sole) and I think a lot alike. Only I can change a few words around and it reads, “I never didn’t like a man I’ve never met,” which is also a good philosophy.
I’ve never met Sapphire, but I like him because he adds a youthful dimension to c-unite. And anything with too few dimensions is just ‘plain’. I guess I could have messed up by creating a thread that singled out only about a dozen of the 1172 members of this forum. The members I singled out are those who I have had either direct interaction with or who’s postings I have followed with interest. To the other 1160 of you – if Jesus loves you I do to – so I suppose that means I love each and everyone of you. Even young Sapph! ;D Title: Re:Reasons We Like Saph Post by: Tibby on January 29, 2004, 03:00:18 PM Survay says...
Because he is a Goth!!!!!!!!!!!! ;D And because of what JN said up above :) Title: Re:Reasons We Like Saph Post by: sincereheart on January 29, 2004, 03:14:11 PM Why do I like him? Let me count the ways.... ;)
1. He's sharp and keeps me on my toes! 2. He's got a wonderful heart behind that facade of cynicism! 3. He's not easily swayed by public opinion! 4. His dry sense of humor keeps me ROFL! 5. He's extremely intelligent! 6. He's got depth which is rare in a teen ('teen' being 13-19)! 7. He's actually polite! 8. He's honest! 9. He's well-read! 10. He's not a sycophant! Okay, enough for now..... Title: Re:Reasons We Like Saph Post by: Sapphire W34P0N on January 29, 2004, 04:28:05 PM Guys, guys, have you learned NOTHING? I do appreciate the effort, but really, if I don't like threads directed solely at one person, what makes you think I'd feel differently about it being directed at ME? I mean, I don't want to come off as arrogant or anything...
Title: Re:Reasons We Like Saph Post by: Allinall on January 29, 2004, 04:29:42 PM ;D
Title: Re:Reasons We Like Saph Post by: JudgeNot on January 29, 2004, 04:39:37 PM Quote I mean, I don't want to come off as arrogant or anything... Too late, you younger whipper-snapper. ;D Which brings up a good question... Exactly WHAT IS a whipper-snapper????? Title: Re:Reasons We Like Saph Post by: Sapphire W34P0N on January 29, 2004, 04:42:03 PM According to my computer's dictionary: Someone who is unimportant but cheeky and presumptuous.

I've always heard that the best way to avoid foot-in-mouth disease is to keep one's mouth closed. Excuse me - I must logout and go to the doctor to get my foot removed from my mouth... Title: Re:Reasons We Like Saph Post by: Whitehorse on January 29, 2004, 05:14:25 PM Guys, guys, have you learned NOTHING? I do appreciate the effort, but really, if I don't like threads directed solely at one person, what makes you think I'd feel differently about it being directed at ME? I mean, I don't want to come off as arrogant or anything... Well, you're coming off as incredibly humble, for you are protesting to all this positive attention. Which, of course is a quality we all like. Who doesn't love a person who says it like it is. The sense of humor is wonderful. Just a likeability that can't be broken down into another characterisitc-just a really awsome likeability. An easy conversationalist. And, a regular who also has a very cool name. I give Sapph five stars. :) ***** Title: Re:Reasons We Like Saph Post by: JudgeNot on January 29, 2004, 06:31:37 PM Whooo-WEE! Back from the doctor – do you have any idea what they charge to remove a foot from a mouth! It’s highway robbery!!!
(It just a good thing I had a first born to give them! Now I can keep my boat!) Title: Re:Reasons We Like Saph Post by: ollie on January 29, 2004, 07:22:22 PM Why do I like him?

Title: Re:Reasons We Like Saph Post by: JudgeNot on January 29, 2004, 09:03:03 PM psssst - ollie - a sycophant is a crazy elephant - but it is politically incorrect to 'label' elephants - so you didn't hear it from me. I'll deny it if you tell anyone I told you...
Title: Re:Reasons We Like Saph Post by: Tibby on January 29, 2004, 09:29:12 PM I propose legislation to ban the word “sycophant” and any jokes that come with this pun from the board.
While we are on the topic, did anyone here about those Elephants in India who have been breaking into liquor stills? Title: Re:Reasons We Like Saph Post by: nChrist on January 30, 2004, 04:24:10 AM Oklahoma Howdy tah All,
I like Sapphire cuz he outsmarts me when me can't tell if he's being cynical or not. He's also helped me pay close attention tah mah spelling an' grammar. yo can peep by dis message dat mah writing skeelz have greatly improved. UM??, alls o dat intelligence an' energy given tah our young adults. me tink it would only be fair tah gib some o dat vim, vigor, an' vitality tah da older folks. Yes, we luv yo Sapphire.

Title: Re:Reasons We Like Saph Post by: Sapphire W34P0N on January 31, 2004, 02:54:44 PM Yeah, you're all sycophants. How do you SAY that? Like, "Pshycho-fants?" Or "See-co-fents?"
Title: Re:Reasons We Like Saph Post by: sincereheart on February 01, 2004, 07:13:33 AM 11. He knows what a sycophant is and he knows he isn't one!
Ok.... so I must remove this one from the list.... :P Yeah, you're all sycophants. How do you SAY that? Like, "Pshycho-fants?" Or "See-co-fents?" "sicka fent" And you can't be a sycophant if you are playing up to a person of no influence.... ;) Title: Re:Reasons We Like Saph Post by: Willowbirch on February 01, 2004, 08:34:49 PM (It just a good thing I had a first born to give them!

I'll deny it if you tell anyone I told you... We would not want to step on an elephants feelings and label him/her. MUMS the word. Are we allowed to mention they are brownish gray in color and have big ears and a big nose that likes to reach for food and water?

So sincereheart has used the king's english for this slang and Symphony has told us the definition. Education goes on and on! Title: Re:Reasons We Like Saph Post by: Symphony on February 03, 2004, 08:24:49 PM ...the King's English... hehe.... 8) Title: Re:Reasons We Like Saph Post by: sincereheart on February 04, 2004, 07:26:03 AM Oh, well there is a more common name among the masses for this and it is a person whose nose contains various shades of brown and tan.
Yup! That's the one! :-X |
