I'm not sure about this thread, could cause alot of arguments!!
But in the nicest way possible, because they have always answered me when i needed advice, i think Glaswegian and Rhodes and my fav's the nicest anyway. Nothing like abit of crawling.

Tough cheddar??

Rule #1 - once nominated - candidates aren't allowed to withdraw -

What's the problem - fraid of a little competition big guy????

So when is my coronation...?

pffff, yeah-righto.

your coronation is sometime between when it goes dark and you shut your eyes, and when you reopen them after a few hours

Yep ... the chewy waxy stuff that passes for cheese in Canada...

smartass

A smart aleck.

smart aleck
n. Informal
A person regarded as obnoxiously self-assertive.
An impudent person.

I don't think I'm obnoxiously self-assertive ... but I know someone who is.

Not really if there's a purpose to it ... I think Iaink or Rhodes both deserve to wear the winners ribbon ... they can then spend the next year working with old people and children to make the world a better place

lollll I Other than your suggestions, I think there's a third person on the list who deserves it too! But I'll leave it up to people to guess that.

To be fair though, here are just a couple of hints: It's not me or Glas.

See, I'm beginning to enjoy this wayyy too much.

OK, I'm putting a stop to this campaigning bollox by bringing the poll forward! Ths poll will be based on the publics opinion of your track record of smartalickyness, and sorry Glaswegian, you cant withdraw, as it was never was that kind of election!

I'm obnoxious, but I didn't think I was awfully assertive.

Welll, in my experience....cheddar is usually soft-hard, and mild,medium and old or aged (mmmmm).....

wow.....grouchy two days in a row.......this is really a record. If I'm obnoxiously self-assertive I've learned everything I know from the master wise guy!!!!!!

Of course there's a purpose to the competition.....and you certainly have a great chance to win!!!! and then you can spent the year spreading happiness (with that grumphy charm) to everyone in the world.

I'm just coming up for air from a week of writing technical documentation ... of course I'm grouchy.

What's the prize ... are we talking money?

Somehow being voted the chief wiseass of the forum sounds like a poisoned chalice for the winner.

I understand.....we just sent off our research proposal after a week of all-niters......wonder if the feds will like this "bs" beter than the last one.

The prize is that you are able to spread that grouchy Scottish charm/wit to all inhabitants on earth.........then there will surely be world peace.........

I always like to spread peace, love and understanding anyway ... hasn't anyone noticed??

The prize is nothing but the love/ respect/contempt of your fellow forumistas, unless you want to ask ray to ban the winner for a week?

Someone loves the Glaswegian. Does anyone know he's not a BRIT!

Of course we have....that's why we wait with "bated breath" for you to start "spreading it"
