OT: Boardies 2022 - The Mika Zibanejad Vegan Award for funniest poster

[Kane One]

So not very long?

Call me a renegade, but I’m seeing a lot of “legacy” votes this year; you guys wouldn’t still vote Weber and Chara for Norris, would you? What you did last season doesn’t matter homies.

Lol what? Bob is the funniest person here. Thirty One is the funniest but falls off my list due to inactivity.

Nah, realistically Will is the only genuinely funny every day poster who doesn’t have an assumed persona and “schtick” as early described. I know it’s not a popular opinion, but as far as folks who are super active and have a balance between humor and actual discussion go, he ought to be the runaway here.

I really hope I’m Weber in this.

Yeah I know hes on LTIRetirement but that sounds kinda cool and it would be awesome if there was an HF equivalent to his cap recapture charge. Like if I finally log off for good then the Predators board gets DDoS’d forever or something.

I don’t want to be chara because he’s too tall and every time he puts on his socks it must be like pulling a pillowcase over a trombone.

Thanks, dude. I don't take things too seriously. I think that's the key to board longevity. Not only good board advice, but for life also.

It would be hard to get by if you took it all too seriously. But there are posters who only post ironic, sarcastic or “on brand” responses - who are funny, but don’t stray outside of their mode - and then there are everyday members who are conversational, participate in genuine discussions consistently and are just all around humorous and display a great sense of humor. “Having a brand” on a message board we post on for free seems a bit contrived. Just being funny by virtue of being yourself is far more valiant, in my worthlessly humble opinion.

 

[Bacon Artemi Bravo]

This award to Tob is like Lidstrom in his prime with the Norris. It's his until he decides to retire

Oh and Bern NEEDS to be in this list. If you don't see him as one of our top comedic talents, you don't have a sense of humor!

Of course @will1066 & @EdJovanovski , glorious additions in their own right as well. Can't go wrong with this list. Everyone is awesome

All kinds of connotations with "pillowcase over a trombone."

It's rude to call someone's personality a schtick IMO.

Some think it’s a schtick but Kravtsov is a way of life. I’m working on a Kravtsov-themed man cave as we speak

I’m imaging this being executed in such a way so that you can finally “be inside” Kravtsov.

The Kravtsov boy cave. Where Ed grooms young hockey fans on the west coast into the cult of Krav.

We both know it’s what he’s wanted.

Wellllll we dont know that. It could be more of a Johnny Bench situation, compared to lets say a Greg Maddux if you catch my drift

you want to be in Kravtsov's man cave?

You are selling yourself short, your opinion is worthlessly proud.

Maybe I am not paying much attention, but that dude that came out during the playoffs constantly talking about his erections seemed to be the most overtly schticky poster that tried to be funny. The other personas seem to be more in the angry mold.

Was that the lubricated nipples guy?

Sure was.

 

[will1066]

Sure was.

That guy's infatuation made @EdJovanovski's with Kratvsov seem normal.

 

[Killem Dafoe]

@Tob takin it this year. And he didn't even need an Xtranormal smear campaign to do it.

Im waiting for @Machinehead to come in and correct us with "gimmick" instead of "schtick" -- because he's pro-pro wrestling parlance.

I think schtick is to gimmick as yard is to mile.

"You can't see me" is a schtick; the doctor of thuganomics is a gimmick.

And also I love John Cena and I will get in a fight about it. His performance as One Night Stand 2006 is the best crowd work in WWE history.

Unless it's a schtick up their ass
