I vote for and nominate-
Witness and Witless Protection Program Paddling
HYPR is dangerous/No it isn't

any hypr thread... i have a theory that hypr is not a real company but a front created by keizo solely for the amusement of the ocpaddler website.
also, a mystery solved: the wiseass who created "witless protection" is kona j!! do i win a prize? "witness protection" was obvious from the first paragraph posted so no mystery there... unfortunately, the meatiest ones are now gone- such a shame...only this one left
also the ditch digging effort by jim was pretty classic, although i'm sure he hates having that come back up.
#2 Fri, 08/29/2008 - 9:19am
It wasn't me-Witless Protection was someone else. I wish I could take credit for it.
#3 Fri, 08/29/2008 - 9:24am
by the way, the "thank you" post that started witness protection back up, AFTER the previous post was deleted by keizo reminded me of a major beat down surfing a big day.... you get dumped and rag dolled, and when it looks like it's letting up and get one breath, the next one comes and it starts again... only difference being it was all self inflicted by "witness protection"
#4 Fri, 08/29/2008 - 9:30am
Yeah I think the witness protection was a pretty classic one. It's kinda been downhill since then.
The ditch digging one's pretty good too. I think Jim's still in the hole a little bit.
I think this one might be worth a nomination. I look at the picture and still laugh and giggle. It also portrays mahatmarks short-lived but very weird presence on OCP.

Witness Protection, Jims ditch digging, and fuzeriders thread about the chines all came to mind. Also a few threads about proper certification were pretty funny.
#6 Fri, 08/29/2008 - 9:53am
Anything Hypr. Nothing else has gotten people as worked up.
#7 Fri, 08/29/2008 - 11:09am
Fuzrider and chines.
Yes. I have to give Fuzerider credit and props. He has turned very likeable and respected. It proves it can happen.
Also Boataid vs. Buttaid was very entertaining

Jim with Danny Ching
#9 Fri, 08/29/2008 - 11:32am
I have the full transcript of the Hypr thread that was deleted if anyone privately wants it. I kept it for reference on how not to market OC's if i ever make canoes for a living.
Just remember, we are all just one word away from an OCP Mafia assassination, just one little slip up at the wrong time and you're done
Full credit to those who took their beating and are still here.

I like the haiku thread. Also the OCP paddler profile thread - funny stuff (also, in part, how I came to the site to begin with). Sorry, can't link to them 'cause I can't get the search option to work.
That IS a hilarious photo, poopoo. And don't all the best idees originate with the grog?
#11 Fri, 08/29/2008 - 1:29pm
Oo yeah the haiku thread. That one was a winner
I dunno about best ideas, but me and jc9 know grog makes you damn productive. We cut his steel racks, made canoe pad cradles, and picked avacados on a friggin high hill and tree all on the grog.
#12 Fri, 08/29/2008 - 2:11pm
Hell Yeah!
My thread got nominated. Paddling Personality Profiles
http://www.ocpaddler.com/node/2100
As I reread it I am now the ultimate Canoe Cop and Mouth and part Psycho
If this gets into the paddling forum hall of fame, then I have reached the pinnacle. Watch out world. I want a GOLD star or GOLD paddle image next to my name when I post.
#13 Fri, 08/29/2008 - 2:36pm
kona
Yeah just reread PPP. Not only hilarious, but true.
#14 Fri, 08/29/2008 - 2:31pm
Back from secret training!
My favorite is keizo's paddling game. Its the best "secret training" ever! My high score is classified. Any chance the game is coming out for Wii in time for Christmas?
Also nominating any and all threads starting out with, "what's your favorite___________?"
(Including this one)
And Google Translate.
Aloha,
Witless.

1) Boat Aid vs. Poo Poo
2) Jim vs. Danny
#16 Sat, 08/30/2008 - 12:58am
Doooohhhh!!! I was hopin nobody would bring that up.
Anybody notice how well poops and I get along since then. He sends me a PM every day that says "good morning sunshine:-) Hope you have a nice paddle today. Your bff, poops".
#17 Sat, 08/30/2008 - 9:01am
Aquafiend, crack kills man crack kills. Why am I telling you this? Cause its obvious you're smoking some.
#18 Sat, 08/30/2008 - 9:07am
Is that what that is? When you gave it to me and said "Hey best friend, smoke all this at once." I thought that was very generous of you. Know Im kinda thinking it wasnt a gesture of love. Poops, are you still sore at me?
#19 Sat, 08/30/2008 - 9:23am
Season 2 of Poops Vs BoatAid has just kicked off
#20 Sat, 08/30/2008 - 10:02am
uh oh, I thought that was the most obvious one. If I piss off boat aid, I am going to sink to the bottom of the ocean half way across the Catalina channel so many apologies.
#21 Sat, 08/30/2008 - 10:17am
Not true my friend......
We're all family here......even poops and I. Its true poops!!
It took a while to figure out my place, but Im humbly and happily there:-)
#22 Sat, 08/30/2008 - 12:13pm
aquafiend65 = aquafriend65
#23 Sat, 08/30/2008 - 1:20pm
Wow!! Miracles do happen. Maybe Ill go home for Christmas this year. So aqua, where is "your place"? Poopoo you going to kiss and make up? Seems like aqua is sincere.
#24 Sun, 08/31/2008 - 6:39am
OK, so I know I'm pretty biased on this one, but I thought the "goto-bomb" photos were classic. My mom liked them too...
Also, check out this thread: http://www.ocpaddler.com/node/855 from March of 2004. Look how many people actually took the time to reply. I guess that the first time you ask the question, you can expect an informative and well thought out answer. The millionth time it gets asked... well, you all know what happens.
#25 Sun, 08/31/2008 - 5:30pm
Jim vs Danny
Which reminds me. Where is Jim? This site is a lot less lively without his unique insight and commentary. We need some controversy around here.
Maybe we could start a thread on which one man would be the best for me.
#26 Mon, 09/01/2008 - 3:26am
My place? As poops bff and mentor? Hehehe.....
Just an ordinary guy trying to do extraordinary repair and design work on OC's and share what I have/know with my paddling brothers and sisters. Thats about it.

Yeah, that ones pretty sweet.
Goto,
For fifty bucks will you still come along and cut kelp off my rudder for me?
#30 Wed, 09/17/2008 - 9:07pm
Dude, I'd do it for $49. But only because we're pals.
