Funniest post, Vote.

In the past few days we've seen, perhaps, two of the funniest posts ever, in the history of CW. Well, intentionally anyways.

Which is greater? That's for you to decide. No irrelevant third option available because of the seriousness and magnitude of the poll. Sorry Dasa.

Voltman IMO...just. Would have liked an irrelevant third option to cater to my fence-sitting wishes.

Didn't find either of them as hilarious as some. Certainly I think their has been more humorous posts.

I better abstain. Although I did enjoy Casson's work comparing Neil Pickup to a man who has spent the last 12 years in prison...

A good point...and since I believe said released prisoner looks startlingly similar to Auckland mayor Dick Hubbard, could it be said that Neil looks like a young Dick Hubbard?

Voltman's post was so good that it took me two days to get the joke.

Agree with that. Both got a chuckle out of me at most.

Nah, I think I've made funnier cracks, but I'm glad pasag derived some pleasure from my quip. And let's be fair, this thread is OK compared to others in OT...
