My guess would be Bryce during one of his non-mellow moments.

This is my first post — hi everyone!

I think someone might have mentioned this, but I love when he makes acronyms out of things that don't need to be acronyms. Like, LB for lidblower.

Yeah that's a good one. My favorite is probably "PR" for pants rummage from the infamous Reggie Monroe. He white walled his hand in the jungle, if you don't recall the name. A recent example was "GG" which OF COURSE means Gods Green, you 420-dummy  ;D

The "why" is by far my favorite recurring Wursterism (followed by variations on "wait, what?). There's one Wurster "why?" that I would love to find again, but I have no memory of which character he was doing. He was explaining something in an agitated tone, and ended it with a really forceful, definitive 'why' — employed as a period, not as a question mark.

I know this is pretty damn vague, but if this rings a bell to anyone, please do tell.

Sounds like Tank or Horse.

Sounds like someone was working as a conduit for nature's natural vengeance.  Just like Jesus.  And some of the others.

Thanks... I'll listen to some old calls and get to the bottom of this. If it's the last thing I do.

In re: pant rummage, I've tried dropping that phrase into normal conversation a few times. Warning: this does not work very well.

Some that I've enjoyed lately are his euphemisms for a person's "bathroom area."

I think one JW caller this summer used the word "ploopleplop," or something very close to that, for a guy's parts. It was great.

Minor update: "Ploopleplop" is actually used in the Shawn from Rampridge call from Jan 09.  Among the many plastic surgeries that Shawn wants is one on his ploopleplop to make it bigger.

"Plookleduke."

"Spot inspection."  The only kind of inspection that Ray Ploppleton and Dick Xap know.
