I would consider myself the local absinthe connoisseur. Speaking of which... I need to order some more! But otherwise I'm just a face in the crowd that hates most of those around me. I'm a grump.

I nominate Aquaman for being the best at scanning. If he's not the best in the world yet, someone probably has nubs for hands because they scanned so many pages.

DC is the best at watching 12 year old Japanese girls on tv.

(DC is the creepy Morning Musume watcher, right?)

There are some pretty serious shooters around here. Not me, though.

There are other things I suspect, but can't exactly verify. It would be nice to be the undisputed best at something, but to be honest it's nice to live a normal live under the radar. I wouldn't want the life of the best tennis player, pianist, or anything else to be honest.

Wrong. While your the best at "your work in software" - thats not saying anything. I am the best at "my taking a shower"....

You are however not the highest income person in the world, nor are you, or the other guy who said he was the best chess player in the world even close.

You're the best at cute posts... it's starting to get on my nerves, too :p

I'm the best at being honest... I suck at everything :D

Dude WTF. You are not going to get laid by this chick. Go out and meet a real vag and you won't find the urge to suckup on atot.

Except that the thread is about the best on ATOT, not the best in the world.

are you, or any user you know of, the best/most proficient at something on ATOT?

Do you have a formal education or just from studying it personally? I'm thinking about going to a Christian college/seminary, but can't decide if I want to finish my undergraduate in my current field (premed), first. It's hard to find people in this era with the time and dedication to the Word, and it's a real pleasure to meet or hear people that do. I'm a avid listener to John MacArthur's sermons... can't get enough :)

Informal, did discuss it with theological professors though. Learned enough early on to realize I didn't know squat. Still learning a lot. Be ready to question your beliefs, because if you are anything like me you probably just was taught by someone who was taught by someone who was... you get the picture.

I took a Pneumatology class at a seminary. Take that!


Edit: Spelling.

Dutch maybe, and most likely the most proficient in using/supporting the stuff the company I work for sells too ;)

Pride. Envy. Wrath, Gluttony and Lust. Sloth and Greed


hrmm

Your point is misguided. A question was asked, an observation made. I have no problems admitting being wrong or not being the best at anything.


I don't know dude...seekermeister claims to speak with God. and seekermeister's word is infallible.... ;)
