Affectionately known as the ‘Baggies, Three Bulls! is proud to present the Cobag awards. Our first nomination is this brilliant and insightful discussion of ad hominem from Obsidian Wings. You of course were right to guess that it was a Charles Bird thread.

I want a baggie. Waaaah.
A T-baggie?
LOOL!!!!DROOL!!!!!!1!!
the golden cobag with double pinstripe suspenders
Geesh, that’s pretty tasteless for even you Cap’n T.
Le Sac du Merde.
Oh, and thanks for introducing me to Charles Bird. Ad nauseam is more like it. Top-notch pedantry.
DA, on topic as usual….just awesome.
What I’d like to know is what Hilzoy gets out of the association with Charles? He’s not really that great of a foil in that I don’t see either of them really responding that much to eachother’s posts. Does it just make Hilzoy’s posts seem that much better by comparison?
CT has always been kind of a cobag.
ObWi tries to “have different viewpoints” but the problem is one side is massively disingenuous.
PP, I think the complementary Golden Onion Weiner ought to go to Charles for this picture he linked to after someone asked why Hilzoy associates with Charles:

Sounds like Captain wants a knuckle sammich.
Anyway, I nominate Tony Blankley.
Sigh, I fear that we’ll run out of baggies before we run out of cobags.
Seriously, when is a Sebastian Holsclaw (the most aristocratic name EVER) or Charles Bird response anything other than a heavily parced “how dare you generalize my Outrage to A when it so clearly limited to subregions A1, A2, A3, A4…An.”
I love watching SH try and assert himself on Crooked Timber threads here (and then get slapped down here)
Blankley seriously wants us to pick a sect in a sectarian civil war? Who are these maniacs? Do you ever feel like were in this insane game of chicken with total world destruction and an evil clown who sits on the Commentary editorial board is flattening his giant clown foot on the gas pedal while the rest of us look on, frozen in horror?
When is someone going to create an award just for me?
DA – if the trend continues, it’s now time for us to fund the Sunni’s.
Wash, rinse, repeat…
Yeah, we’ll be coming full circle pretty soon and backing al Qaeda …
Seitz, just do what we did and create your own. Sure we’re nominating other people, but in the end we fully expect to sweep the Baggies ceremony and win every single one. (Nominating other people makes it look legit!)
I somewhat tongue-in-cheek nominate the Wampum gang for a ‘Baggie, for the endless poor-mouthing of the terrible burden it is to host the Koufaxes. Like, compiling links and checking out other blogs is so the opposite of how a blogger normally wants to spend his time. And the yearly huge spike in traffic is really more of a hassle than a massive ego-stroking reward.
(I say tongue-in-cheek ‘cos I think they do perform a service and deserve to be compensated for it … but they don’t need to be such martyrs about it when really, it’s what put them on the map and gets their other stuff a wider audience.)
Plus, they don’t think 3B! is an expert blog!
Off-topic here, Chumpthumpers!
Come visit me and tell me what you all think!!
(And you know, I’m really pissed at Jedmunds….)
bg, you don’t have to say “off topic” at 3B! We hardly ever have any comments on topic.
Yes, it would perhaps be better to warn us if comments are “on topic.”
On topic:
I thnk these guys are used to some 80s Bookcase game “Cold War Foreign Policy”/day trading scenario where they can just change their mind and/or think their mere thought turns into instantaneous deeds. There are no dumber, more dangerous f***s on the planet.
that is the most baiting post title ever. i was hoping i had won a baggie, then i read the damn thing and realised it wasn’t the bag i was lookin’ for…
Pop, we keep the good stuff at the blogspot site. You know that
PP,
Did you just reference 80s bookcase games? Jesus Christ, I love 3 Bulls!
Pop, you know Pinko supports the DARE program. You aren’t going to get the good stuff here, love.
Whew! I thought we had lost Auguste!
fulsome, if by good stuff you mean mind-bending unicorns then yes. you do keep the good stuff there.
and i guess auguste didn’t get the memo about the move?
or was malkin eating more of your delicious brains than usual?
also, all of you otherwise wonderful wonderful people still have blogspot.com as your homepages when you comment all over the world. that earns you a nomination for the nostalgic baggie, which is a category i just made up.
All baggie categories are made up!
