Make him grin & Bear it perhaps?

Is there a most unlikely to win an election but won an election award (sponsored by Brexit). If so I want to claim mine. I think it might have been from 2016.

Also, how come ya are so fucking proficient at counting votes all of a sudden?

I’m good at all sorts of counting when suitably inspired.

Congratulations on your 1000th upvote. Looking forward to your suggestions on how we can make Southampton as mindlessly sectarian as your first team.

Speaking of which, it’s time to announce the Sotonians Point Sniper Middleweight Division. Eligibility is 101-500 posts.

Way out in front is popular poster @halo-stickman , who justifies my description of him as not saying very much, but being rather interesting when he does. @nottarf-krap gets the silver, while @numptyboi takes the bronze.

You came seventh. Admirable within the weight class, but perhaps an indicator from your peers that your content needs to diversify from button pushing meta.

What you lot all whinging and whining about, I’m a funny guy right, you all love me right, yet I only manage measley 2 points per fucking post.

Ooh, conflict!

@btripz believing the @pap , @saintbletch doling out a rare downvote. It’s all kicking off on Sotonians. And they said we’d never have an edge.

In the spirit of lightening the mood after pouring petrol on the fire, I announce a surprise new category, four tins of Red Stripe to the good, making it up as I go along like a totalitarian, eh @tokyo-saint ?

It is with great pleasure that I announce the inaugural winners of the **Sotonians Night Owl **** Award , which replaces the Night Crawler **award. These are the brave souls that keep the fires burning between the hours of witching and five.

Banging in at number one is @dubai_phil , helped massively by the minus four hour time difference, and we love him for it. Second is @philippinesaint , who exists in a state of timezone flux, depending on which airport he’s stuck in. Finally, it not only gives me great pleasure to hand @saintbristol the bronze. I may consider a separate and unique award if he’s posting his late-nighters from the UK. I’m certain the Time Lords would have no problem with this.

Your top ten, ladies and gentlemen, from @pap

Fat fingers I hope @saintbletch :lou_eyes_to_sky:

He told me that he was aiming for the upvote button, but his eyes were distracted by a garish, gaudy object, he missed the target and dished out an inadvertent downvote. For the life of him, he couldn’t work out what the gaudy object was.

I have no idea what “diversifying from button pushing meta” might mean but…

YESSSSSSSS! 7th! Eat shit, world! What a result. To all my teachers who said I wouldn’t amount to anything - fuck you!

That means I can still make Europe if one of the others above me win the FA Cup right? RESULT!

Sorry @themightyostrich but you’re in the Championship at the moment, 7th doesn’t even make the playoffs…
