Gee, you guys are all so good, I don't know how I'll ever be able to pick just two of you . . .

I haven't been playing attention...how has Sarcasm automatically received a spot in the Four? He seems hardly qualified...my little sister is better at sarcasm.

What's wrong, Frisco, sad you didn't get the name first? Poor thing. Would you like some grapes? They're a little sour.

I reserve the rights to Talking Fish. Can't access it from this computer. Im at a friends house. But Talking Fish is mine. I am the talking fish of the apocalypse.

Before any final decision is made, I must consult with my associate, Cynicism. We will have a decision shortly.

My appearence on Hatrack is justification for at least granting me pestilance as my mount. It must be some sort of sign that the end is near for me to even be looking at Hatrack.
Then again half the people on Ornery consider me to be evil incarnate.

I am sure that Sarcasm will be on soon to pick the other horsemen (he says sarcastically), but I do believe that all of you have done exceedingly well. I think we have enough bonafide contenders to make a Calvary of the Apocalypse.
For those not chosen, may I suggest staying around as a backup group. You know, "Four Men of the Apocalypse and the pips." type thing? That way if one of them is unable to serve...

Or you know, if I'm not chosen, they could just obey my every whim. I am the Anti-Chris after all. Apocalyptic ruling is something I'm just well known for.

Yes, I admit it, it's my fault the results aren't posted yet. But no one ever specified "which" saturday, now did they. I say they should get a whole extra week, or two...

The hard part will be actually finding enough decent applicants to even have to do any deciding.

Meme should apply, since everything is memes anyway, right DavidBowles? If I had a better grasp of memes, I might apply under the Meme name (unless DB has it locked). Happily, I am a "bear of very little brain" so I won't concern myself with that.
Also, I think an Indignance should apply, perhaps saying, "HorseMEN?? Well, I guess I don't qualify, since I have *ovaries*." Maybe that would go better under the name Political Correctness, yes, I think that would be a better Apocalyptic Horserider.
Again, my little brain prevents me from applying.
Reminds me, perhaps there should be a "False Modesty" application as well.

Apparently Cynicism isn't taking his calling very seriously. Hey! Cynicism! Did you fall down a well or something? Can you please do your job for once?
Also, I'd just like to say that I'm a little disappointed that we didn't get any contestants with names like Cockeyed Optimism. That would've been cool.

Well, I didn't originally apply, because I wanted to be fair to all the "little" sins, vices, and other horseman-wannabes out there. Rather selfless of me, I thought, since I'd obviously just blow any of them out of the water.
But jexx, if my adoring and faithful fans demand it... then here I am.
Qualifications? *Inadvertantly* starting countless internet flame wars, since others obviously weren't mature enough to handle my responses.

Excuse me? I was starting flame wars when you were still trying to figure out the difference between the power button and your own *******. Give you a hint: one's on the computer, the other isn't.
Yeah, I'll apply for this lame-*** position, even though it doesn't look like the current horsemen are ever going to actually decide. Maybe you should get 'Humility' to give you some computer lessons.
I am the father of Patriotism, Tribalism, Catholisism, Schism and ten thousand other artificial divisions that divide the house of man.
I am the grandfather of War. War is the father of Pestilence and Famine. War is the stepfather of Death. So all the old horsemen are my kin.
Whereever some person or group of people want to set themselves out as above mortal kind, or set some one else out as beneath contempt--they call on me and my children.
They all suffer from Egotism.
You two who are choosing the horsemen are my children as well. Bow down before my power and let me in.

I take the delay as a pretty clear declaratoin of my Horseman status. Even if I'm not chosen, I've proven I can affect two, if not all four of the riders.
Unfortunately, this means we'll never actually get around to the Apocalypse...
...certainly not this month. We've got March Madness brackets to fill out!
posted
Can I join? for my application see Kids in The Hall, Rick Mercer, John Candy, Jim Carrey, Steve Smith aka Red Green, This Hour Has Twenty Two Minutes, etc.
As well one of the Monty Python Animators was canadian, and that would make him decisively evil neh?

No, no, March Madness is one of my best contributions to the world... hours upon hours of vegging in front of a couch during games, and hours and hours of ranking teams and filling out brackets when the games aren't on and you should be working. Office pools, online polls, fridge brackets... these things just crop up in my wake, while I'm on my way to the fridge to get some Polly-O.
Besides, you technically have up until the last shot of the championship game to really finish your bracket... or is it until the scores are posted in the paper the next morning... I always forget.
