Most entertaining person on bitcointalk ?

Inspired by Jet Cash with is topic How can we stimulate Bitcoin Talk? and Vods Most recognised on Bitcointalk

I stated thinking about what posts I enjoy the most reading here. What do I find the most entertaining ? Humor certainly is at the top of the list.

Then I started thinking - who is the most entertaining person on bitcointalk ?

Only criteria is that the account is currently active.

So I've decided to run a poll - but first require some nominations.

Based on humor I nominate:

I nominate TMAN for his humor, sarcasm, and vitriol.  He's the first member that came to mind, but I'll try to think of some others.  

Edit:  Bruno, definitely.  He hasn't been active lately, but he's definitely entertaining.  Spoetnik was also pretty funny/psychotic, but I think he quit the forum.

For sheer humour purposes I would nominate the entire flat earth crowd. They are like a 19th century freak show - you know it's wrong to stare and laugh at them, but you just can't help it. I would second TMAN and also The Pharmacist for all the threads spammers and scammer open against him to cry about their red paint.

I think Vod and pugman deserve to be among the nominees if its mainly about being humorous (they are good in everything, no doubt). I personally enjoy reading these two a lot, on every single thread they take part in. And what about JC (Jet Cash, in case a reader doesn't understand it that way)? His sense of humor is also noticeable most of the times.

[TheBeardedBaby]

There are many deserving to be on that list, just wonder if  Nullius is suitable as he is not active anymore but made quite a furor back then.

Only criteria is that the account is currently active.

Damnit I always get excited about the main idea of the post and miss the small clues. Sorry.

Voting for TMAN

What was that users name with all the conspiracy theories and accusations that tried to extort users and become a campaign manager? He was always complaining about the cartel and making up some interesting stories in terms of loose association.. Stand-by..

EDIT: Digaran! That was their name. I'd like to nominate them for the most entertaining person on bitcointalk. They've made me laugh harder than just about anybody on here. The sheer volume of nonsense that came out of that user was impressive. They would follow around everyone for awhile making claims that we were all a single person. Goood times.

Anonymint - i am sure if you combine knowledge, willingness to try to break it down for joe public, willingness to analyse many new interesting designs and an interesting and different open and honest character then you can't really name anyone else who can compete on all of those levels. Writing style is something of a work of art too.

CFB - can be funny and amusing - always worth a read once he gets into a scrap with people  

Bruno or yutucoin - great soh and investigator of scams - one of the most valuable members here actually

BCX - was another fun one to read in the past for sure

They may not like being described as entertaining but actually if you say which posts do you like to read these are some that can provide great threads in many different ways


Lauda knows how to tick people off and is quite funny too

ICEbreaker - another person I have enjoyed reading in the past

Smooth - another one who in the past has been fun to read.

Spot had his moments before getting turned to the dark side

a lot of the very best are gone now sadly.

Really the best battles and best characters are gone or hardly posting for quite some time.

There are a lot of interesting discussions, more than individual people, but I have been laughed about what happened on this topic.[1]
By humor, there are many like Quickseller, Vod, and Jet Cash.
There are some people in the local board, but I do not think you will understand that language.

I nominate micgoosens for his quirky personality & because he documents his life in the WO, fun guy & a good HODLER.
 
Also nominate DannyHamilton & achow101 but that’s not for entertainment value. They’ve both given me technical advice which proved to be invaluable for me personally.

[athanz88]

I nominate Hillariousandeco or etc, or whatever the account is. He can be a humorous person sometimes, yet he can be a person who can lead and made some community based action and deliver some reasonable and clear explanation upon aproblems. That is entertaining for me.

Ops, did i just assume hillariousandco's gender? Pardon me.

Finally an opportunity to use this meme -

[LoyceV]

I nominate BiPolarBob! Before his account got hacked, but for entertaining value that doesn't matter.

Whenever this guy showed up, his threads turned to pure gold. Example:

Looks like that 1BTC loan to me isn't confirming..

Can someone else send me a quick 1BTC?

Send to: 14iCa17gPz2CirJ9QdzNM283kc3ET69gFZ

Preferably someone without critical reasoning who will send the BTC instead of asking me to prove myself

sending

oops, sorry I deleted that wallet. Hold on I will generate a new one for you to send to.

Noo i sent wtf come on!!??

Thanks, I see the transaction!

This is hard question. It would be easier for me the name a lot of annoying users.
I was thinking about the answer about 1 minute and I did not find a answer.
Maybe i am just visiting the wrong sections.

Dude, you're lost.  Why don't you go away, figure out what you're doing, and then come back with something that contributes to the discussion.  There was absolutely no need for that post.

I also think BipolarBob should be in this list.  I had forgotten about him, but he's definitely entertaining.  Also, I don't think people are distinguishing useful posters from entertaining ones.  When I think of the latter, it's usually those that make me laugh or have some other kind of emotion.  A lot of the members mentioned here are great posters but aren't necessarily entertaining.

[LTU_btc]

It's hard to choose one user, so I will mention few names - hilariousandco, Vod, The Pharmacist and ... digaran
P.S. I'm not sure that "most entertaining" is the most appropriate word to describe these users.
P.S.2 theymos is also quite entertaining person, for example I love his legendary phrase about KYC on Bitcointalk

I vote for hilariousetc who is most active in the forum and who is doing good catch over scammers and spammers through out this forum. Hope he may get more votes like I give

Next to that I wanna nominate the The Pharmacist who is against spammers in this forum and most active on forum related thread and this section. When he is there in any thread. There will be more interesting replies and answer at there.

"I'd love to nominate theymos and the developers of Skrillage for all the development they've done on the forum so far!"
Which is more or less the reasoning behind your nominations... Not saying your nominations are wrong per se, but your thought behind them seems pretty skewed.

If only Alia was still active. She/he/they would definitely get my vote. That shit show was entertaining as hell.
