Wiglaf, Who Should Be Our Next President of the USA!

[Aeson]

You have my vote

[Wiglaf]

If Cheney achieves brain death and Ashcroft doesn't step up to the plate I may have to take another salary cut for this country and give this a shot.

[Dr Strangelove]

It would be like the return of the golden era of Warren G. Harding!!!!

Wiglaf for President? Aeson must have been more affected by the Typhoon than he is admitting, maybe a bump on the head?

I haven't been able to watch The Daily Show or The Colbert Report for about a year and a half now. The local news sometimes says something about Obama, but it's all horribly dull and boring. Wiglaf could fill that political comedy void.

(Though since I burned up our prepaid Cignal TV box ... the postpaid Cignal TV box we get for free with the new postpaid plan will have Comedy Central ... but even so I'd still vote for Wiglaf.)

The thread title sounds like a dangling appositive, which irks me. Therefore, I will not vote for your campaign until you show you are a compassionate leader and fix it. Sorry.

What exactly is a dangling appositive?

[Elok]

It's not a standard term, as such; I coined it. It's when an appositive, an explanatory or modifying phrase sandwiched between commas in the middle of a sentence,

Titles don't have to be complete sentences, though.

Suggested corrections for MikeH to use with his newly-discovered powers:

"Wiglaf, Who Should Be Our Next President of the USA, is Awesome."
"Wiglaf, Who Should Be Our Next President of the USA, Accused of Misappropriating Funds to Buy Dog Condoms."
"Wiglaf, Who Should Be Our Next President of the USA, Appoints Elok Kommandant of Personal Grammar SS."

etc.

:wiglaf:

[Elok]

That title promises more and fails to deliver. I have linguistic coitus interruptus over here. Need pictures of naked grammarians to finish.

[MikeH]

You sick ****.

[Wiglaf]

I could be wrong, but having just returned from the lab, I have concluded that this post's title is a play on the earlier post "Wiglaf! Who should be our next president" I've also concluded you should leave America, because anyone who seriously needs additional reasons to vote for me to be president is a ****ing idiot.

[Alexander's Horse]

I'd vote for Wiglaf's avatar for President.
