I admire ______because... (Volante's Turn!)

[Matt]

This is where you choose a Blender and give a reason for why you admire them. Once you have been "admired" pick someone else and give a reason!

[Matt]

I admire Moviegirl11 and Phenotype because of their drive to be debt free and work on saving before splurging!

[moviegirl11]

wow, thanks matt! It's an uphill battle but we're getting there!

I admire Deus for his faith and ability to express his thoughts on his faith/beliefs in an intelligent, thought provoking way. Especially with the story he told recently in the "Tell the story of how" thread.

(wow that sounds ass-kissy but for real, its one of the first things I thought of when I tried to think of something I admire about another blender.) :)

[Darth Tater]

I admire Matt & Bethany for their relationship. They sound like they are an amazing couple - I can read their playfulness together in their posts. They sound like soul mates.

[moviegirl11]

I thought this one was like the other thread - like a chain where the person who went last picks who goes next...? If it's a free-for-all, I've got more admiration to share but I sort of like the one-at-a-time thing too :)

[Matt]

I had first thought it would be a rotating thing.. but if people want to share their thoughts, go for it!
Maybe I should edit Deus's name into the title to get it back.

[Matt]

Just as a reminder... we'll do it like this. Someone posts why they admire someone. Then that person posts why they admire another member.

For example:

I posted that I admired MG and Pheno.
MG posted that she admired Deus.
Deus is on the clock!

[Captain Murphy]

Sorry, right when I posted that I saw your post come up. :lol

[Darth Tater]

Ahh. I just didn't really read the instructions in the first post.

I stand by my post though!

[Matt]

hahaha Thanks Darth Tater. I appreciated it!

[Bethany]

Thanks so much Tater, you are so sweet to say that! I never believed in soulmates until I met Matt but he is definitely my perfect match!

[Captain Murphy]

Just as a reminder... we'll do it like this. Someone posts why they admire someone. Then that person posts why they admire another member. :lol I'll never be able to participate in this thread.

[Bethany]

:lol I'll never be able to participate in this thread.

I will pick you for something Murph ;) you may, or may not like it though!

[Captain Murphy]

:rofl Oh God...

[Bethany]

Ok, Deus is never going to respond, MG should pick someone else!

[Matt]

Deus has been absent for awhile. I agree.

[Deus Ex Machina]

Yeah, sorry. I've been away for the week. I certainly didn't mean to flout the thread. :)

Wow, MG, I'm humbled. Honestly humbled.

I admire Tay because he calls it likes he sees it and isn't afraid of what you'll think about him for doing so.

[crappertay]

I do? :lol Er I mean, damn right and don't you forget it! :lol

Thanks man. :)

I admire Head Honcho Josh for packing in the job he hated so much to chase his dream. I aspire towards making such a ballsy move at some point in my life before it's too late and he is living proof it can be done. :salute

[Josh]

I admire Volante, for taking on the DVD forum and making it viable again. Seriously man, you have no idea how many others have failed in that task. Nicely done.

[Volante]

Hrm...ok...

I admire myself because I'm just awesome.
..wait, that means I'd have to go again. Nuts to that.

I admire Murphy for his ability to take everything we dish out at him. :)

[Bethany]

I agree with you Vol, we can give Murph a pretty hard time but he is a great sport!

[crappertay]

I probably give Murph the most shit on this board and according to a very drunk Mr Gerardi on sunday night, I'm still his favourite foreigner. :rofl

He is a trooper. :salute

[Matt]

He did just send my wife a PM asking her on a date tomorrow, so I might have to kill him. :rofl

[Bethany]

He did not ask me out on a date! He asked us both to meet him and Svo in Atlanta! Matt likes to bend the truth :lol

[Matt]

He didn't send ME the message. :rofl

[crappertay]

Matt & Bethany and Murph & Svo.

So really it's a double date.

[Matt]

:rofl

[Matt]

Okay Murphy is gone on his cross country drive. Let's move to another one.

Vol or Tay pick another! :) (I'm too lazy to scroll back and see who nominated him. :rofl)
