I had to choose Angua...it was a tie pretty much between her and Detritus, tho(ugh for those who get very snippy when faced with abbreviations *cough*Feather Brain*cough*.

Finially time to reply!
This was a hard one- I love all the main watch characters, but I had to go with Detritus. The piecemaker? How could I not pick him?
And Grim- I wasn't the only one. Gorgan agreed she'd never seen it abreviated like that

A harder one. to me, three of them stand about equal, with the forth slightly behind. But, for his recent work in Night Watch, I went for Reg.

We were both reading over her shoulder when she was typing and she put down "tho" instead of "though" and I commented on it because it was late and she'd been having other typing issues.

I had been having typing issues because it was after midnight. What's wrong with abbreviating 'thank you' as 'ty?' I always type 'tho' on IM or exboard b/c(is this bad too?) I am too lazy to spell it out.
It's not our fault that you're left out...you don't have the misfortune of living in good old America. We TP fans have to stick together here in our little group. Besides, we were having a Monty Python party! We rented some from the video store and the buy at the register said something like, "Do you actually like those?" And I was thinking, No, we're just renting them--we really hate them . He continued, "I tried watching the Holy Grail one and didn't think it was funny. Well, the part with the back knight was...and so was the rabbit." We weren't at the height of our kindness after that. He was obviously a loony.

i had to vote detritus.
i have to go with scarlet on this one...The peice maker is classic..i think - combine that with the line in the last continent "u all that a knife? i call this a crossbow" and u have the set up for the most hilarious line.
poor loony non-MP fans
and TRW? u aren't where?
p.s. welcome, i don't think i've seen u before
to grim - i got bugged about abbrevitating stuff as well, and i told them to get used to it, cause i wasn't gonna stop. maybe u should see if that works for u too?

I did love the Cuddy/Detritus scenes... its a shame they had to go, but I suppose they would have competed with the Nobby/ Colon partnership for the humorous interludes.
