Vote for Patrick (S)
Just noticed on SF the 'best dressed' awards.
I was following the news about Mafoofan when I spotted Patrick in the semi finalists.

I think he deserves our votes for all his posts on here and other forums.
Especially when you look at some of the losers he is up against.
He will get the Ben Silver/J Press job if we play our cards right.

Patrick gets my vote
that guy Matt (mafoofan) irks me. When he first came around the forums he seemed like a real guy that had some idiosyncratic habits, but now he's (intentionally I assume) become a cartoon character, your typical internet "persona" poster. Isnt he a lawyer in NYC? He sure posts a lot, I would have thought he'd be too busy to post as much as he does during the day. I'm sure meeting him in real life would be a disappointment, being used to the clown that he is as "mafoofan" on SF

Re: Vote for Patrick (S)
Ha ha, this is hilarious. My editor, who is married to a guy who used to write about men's clothes for the NYT, said I would never make the cut.
If I win the cash and the Nivea I will pay off my credit cards and moisturize 'til the cows home home.
Or I could throw some sort of iGent orgy.

Does the orgy happen before or after the cows come home?

Re: Vote for Patrick (S)
Vote - and often. Patrick looks like Spencer Tracey. A intern fresh from university is pushing a double column piece on women's issues and continued male oppression to the editor.
Patrick has a brown bag on his desk, leftovers from lunch at a new ethnic eatery with newspapers from the home country, unintelligable, but familial, and food still looking like it's source hanging in the window until a health official puts an end to that centuries old practise.
The owner was a woman, worn down to a stasis somewhere between 35 and 50, hands twisted in arthritic emblems of her cooking that probably match a untranslated ancient language's symbol for mother's cooking.
Patrick ponders a small piece about the new eatery. A coworker stops by. 'She wants to do a women's issues piece.' Patrick says 'swell. ' His associate repeats 'swell' and walks over to hold the door open as she struggles in with one of those ionizing air filters. She gives him a dirty look.
Patrick adjusts his tie. Patrick is centered.

Re: Vote for Patrick (S)
I just finished looking through the top 25 and no one even comes close to Patrick. My wife thinks he looks a lot like Spencer Tracy too. I've always thought that when Patrick was on in his photo posts not many could touch him. Brownshoe perhaps being one of the few. I would of never considered voting in one of those things, but I'll do it as much as it lets me or until I get distracted by something else. Kind of funny to see who else from the "fora" showed up. Including one who lives in the town of my Alma Mater. Pretty hilarious.

Re: Vote for Patrick (S)
I wonder if they check the voters. Apparently you have to be US or Canadian resident to be eligible to vote.

Re: Vote for Patrick (S)
I've cast a bunch of votes for Patrick and will make a daily point of it. I expect an outsized tube of Nivea and a holstein at the orgy.

That was easy. Best of luck Patrick. You deserve it.

Oh great, yesterday was May 1 and all the ilegal latinos protested for immigration reform.
How are we going to tell who is a US or canadian citizen online?

Re: Vote for Patrick (S)
Last time I looked some bloke had 60000 views. Nobody else came near. I assume he was rigging the votes for himself.
Teiko is the name.

Would a vote for Patrick help get rid of Gordon 'Moral Compass' Brown? Or not?

Re: Vote for Patrick (S)
Patrick sort of looks like the town doctor. The guy in those films that looks down on the James Dean type guy in his town.
Stylish or square........its a real thin line.
