watcharacters Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 (edited) Sincerely, does anyone actually care about this? Winning an Academy Award in Hollywood matters in that it means offers of roles that will likely be forthcoming. Thai Visa Poster of the year? Who cares? No award and after the fact and it's all immediately forgotten. Not even an ambassadorship to promote the site. What gives? It smacks of post count mania to me. Silly stuff, IMHO.

Just wait until you have over 50,000 posts and have come in second place in the POTY contest for ten years in a row. Someone in this position will utter "POTY" as their dying word just as Orson Welles' character uttered "Rosebud" in Citizen Kane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geronimo Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 I often like to let my imagination have a little wander, and visualise posters and their lifestyles. I see JLC as a man of action, and his study would house a fine collection of books. There'd be tickertapes and screens of financial data, whirring away in the background, and he would have at least 7 phone lines, to traders and lawyers mainly, but there are scriptwriters and political lobby partners. I see the furniture as being mahogany or perhaps teak, and it is very rare anyone is allowed into the room, aside from the cleaning staff and IT support. JLC has a fine selection of Havana cigars, that are occasionally lit, when a new venture is acquired, or unloading stock before it falls through the roof.
