Being funny is hard. Being funny over the internet, very hard. Here are the funniest guys on T-Nation.
So, who am I missing?
apayne … amazing one liners … i think i will always remember this one:
“fridge girl, in the butt, with the maple syrup”
ANYFORM … most people don’t get him … (but i feel ya big guy)
StevenF … had the best avatar of all time with the crude potatoe stick man with the gun
definitely Heffernan … although a raging homosexual, he is my favorite T-Nation author and without a doubt the funniest aussie i have ever met that lives in ireland
Allwin Cosgrove … dig the British humour
Dave Tate used to be kind of funny, but apparently it was all tied up in his fatness
Joel Marion … good stuff
Bauer … oh wait, he’s not funny, he’s just slightly larger than the state of pennsylvania
there are others … don’t hate on me because i don’t know who you are and don’t think you are funny enough to mention here
some up and comers though … too early to tell … someone to fill the shoes as the vets lose their luster and find lives and real girls and other ways to orgasm without using a computer and stuff
also, Dave Barr is not funny … pop tarts … still … really?
What about that other guy, you know…yeh him, the one that writes the posts and stuff!

I disagree - I think it’s easier to be funny over the internet. You have more time to think.
Not that it matters.
You’re all out of your minds, db, Dollarbill44 is funnier than anyone mentioned here. just read his post history - I actually question how he can possibly be so consistently hilarious. Is he like this in real life, or does he reserve his caustic wit for the intraweb? Was there a single incident in his life to render him so cynical, or did the weight of life just grind him down over the years? I think we need a T-Nation biography - the world needs to know.

Judging by the crap ideas and lousy grammar/punctuation most people display on the internet, I have to disagree with you.

He’s not British, he’s Scottish. I’ve sent him this post, so watch your back for the next 61 years. Remember, even if you can’t see All In, he can see you All Out.
Realpeanutbutter’s posts on some shit thread made me laugh, and there are a couple of one-liners that make me giggle. There are alot of people that tend to be about as funny as a burning orphanage.

I think that you will find that both are correct.

HAHA, that’s a great line. So true, so true.

Now thats funny.
And yes, dollarbill44 is the funniest motherfucker here. As I mentioned in another thread, if UFOs were landing and there was a reporter on the scene giving the report on everything, DB would be the guy that notices the reporter’s fly is down.

Hey, if I burned any orphanages, it was only to make you all that much stronger.

Britain is part of the UK, and Scotland is part of Britain.
The full name of our illustrious country is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
Hope that cleared all that up…
PS - Can’t believe no-one put SteveO or Headhunter up for ‘funniest’ guy candidates. Or is being unintentionally outside the remit?

Oh wait. Not quite what you meant, was it?
Doh…

What are you saying, that I’m gay? Everyone’s got a camp story. That doesn’t make me gay.
As for how I got cynical, I don’t think it was one thing, rather a compilation of life letdowns, starting with the fact that I never went blind even though my mother said I would if I kept masturbating. Look at me now Mom, I’ve got my pecker in my hand and I can SEE the porn in front of me!!! Talk about losing faith in those who are infallible in your eyes 
j/k
But seriously, I spent a lot of time daydreaming in school, so when I would get called on, I would be clueless about what was being discussed. It’s a hell of a lot better to say something that makes the other students laugh than it is to be ignorant and have them laugh AT you (even if it means going to visit the principal and having to touch his “magic wand” so that my parents wouldn’t have to be notified). It’s also the only way for an awkward, late(never)-blooming, scrawny, brace-face to get noticed by girls.
I appreciate the nominations, it’s what makes me keep at it. Otherwise, I would take the “Biggest Troll” nomination from deSleeplijn and go terrorize another site with a much darker persona. Kind of like those comic book villains that wanted to be a superhero before something turned them to the dark side (like what must have happened with Apayne - my nominee for funniest on here). Either that or I would have to do some work at my desk.
So, I will take this as encouragement to continue to be distracted from developing my body as I try to keep my wit sharp and stay funny. The drawback is that I don’t think you can be consistently funny AND get big. At least that’s the excuse I’m going with. Then again, maybe it has something to do with eating and sleeping more.
In the end, if you want to get big, train with big people. If you want to be funny, hang around with funny people, watch funny movies, read funny things.
Oh, and Chrismcl, either your fly is down or you have a pig in a blanket stuck to your pants (I just hate uncircumcised penises).

Everyone on here makes me laugh from time to time, each in your own way.

I too hold a British passport (is this maybe why my nut is numb?) and in case you’ve not been drinking your Iron-Bru lately, most Scots would rather not be considered Brits.
Go ahead, try this experiment: Find a Scot and ask him where he’s from. If he was born in Scotland he will say “I’m Scottish”, not “I’m British”.
Alwyn is now watching you too…(and he’s seen a lot of Bruce Lee films, remember that)
