January 2008 Stundie Nominations

[nicepants]

From Avenger at the new LCF:

How does the pole create a round hole in the windshield if the pole is curved?

How, indeed?

 

[Mobyseven]

Here's December's nominees.

Hilaritous. Love the voices and the background images.

You'll be sent for some...'education' because of that Mobyseven comment though.

 

[Belz...]

This is my first stundie nomination. I apologize if I'm breaching any stundie etiquette or protocol, or if its just not funny.

New member bwinwright tries to explain what's wrong with the skeptic movement, but somehow manages to nail down the essence of the truth movement's failures instead.

my emphasis

Ouch. That's just neatly circular. "My evidence ? They're EVIL, man! There IS no evidence and THAT, my friend, IS the evidence!"

 

[Alferd_Packer]

A rather amusing little exchange on the new LC forum:

Arbor

I can't do it now. I just got back from hanging with my girl. When I get the time (which will be soon), I will do the research and post it here, to put this nonsense to rest, once and for all.

Arbor, I actually agree with you in the fact that those reports about "Arab men" could be faked by bigots, and I think that it's good to have skepticism towards everything, but being that I also have a "girl" or a girlfriend, it seems like you're kind of using that line as a put down to other people on this forum, like other people that post here don't have girlfriends....correct me if I'm wrong.

Cat fight!

 

[Horatius]

Here's a good one. An analogy that only makes sense if you accept his CT ideas:

It didn't take long to discover that this site is to atheism what the Catholic church is to homosexuals. In my experience, atheists always seem to be people nobody likes very much, so they had to be different by claiming to be an atheist, to justify why nobody likes them.

I nominate Sizzler for honestly suggesting that appeal to authority counts as evidence:

Are the best forms of evidence in my opinion.

1. core rubble temperatures would have been hotter than the surface yet oxygen starved....hard to account for given the time the temperatures lasted for.

2. thinned steel/presence of sulfur...again, hard to account for and dubbed "the greatest mystery"

3. near free-fall collapse into footprint and almost symmetrical. again, hard to account for given 6.5 collapse time. (~.5 seconds faster than freefall)

4. appeal to authority

I guess we have to revamp everything we thought we knew about formal logic.

Ok.... Maybe I'm drunk but.... What is he trying to say?

 

[Brainache]

Ok.... Maybe I'm drunk but.... What is he trying to say?

I think he is saying that every poster on JREF is an atheist in the same way that every catholic priest is a homosexual pedophile.

people dont like catholics so the priests pretend to be gay pedophiles so people have an excuse to not like them is the best i can come up with

 

[jsfisher]

No, I'm sure it means that catholic priests are atheists who use pedophiles to stalk homosexuals. For what purpose, I don't know, but somehow in involves the JREF.

 

[Orphia Nay]

Mr Herbert posted this in the LC Forum thread, and Gideon's quote really made me giggle.

Gideon is quite the tool. I was reading his myspace blog/rants: http://www.myspace.com/911archive

I actually posted a response to the flight 93 dung he has, asking him about the abundance of evidence that supports the official report and this was his response (after deleting my comment):

That's the kind of talk I'd expect from someone with such a boring myspace. Get a life.

Famous no-planer JoeCrainewhateverhisaccountnameisafterbeingsuspendedGodknowshowmanytimes said in this video:

Why don't you prove your statement that anybody jumped?

I have anlaysed over 10,000 images and, every image showing a person in a wtc window or hole shows them seeking help, not jumping.

Why disgrace the victims on top of murdering them twice by covering up their murders.

 

[Belz...]

Here's a good one. An analogy that only makes sense if you accept his CT ideas:

That... makes... no sense at all.

 

[Dave Rogers]

There's a link from the Screw Loose Change blog to an OpEdNews piece, "Truth" is Dead, Long Live The Truth-- The death rattle of the 9/11 "Truth" movement.... As usual with sensible, well-thought-out articles critical of the truth movement, the comments bear careful Stundie examination. A little way down we have, from hosshoss777, the following incomprehensible gem:

Truth is Confused For sure

9/11 was not what it seemed.
The problem is in thinking that the USA is the Empire when the USA while in the Matrix of Empire is in fact not the seat of Empire.
It's takes an intuitve mind to discern the true home of Empire. Start by finding the Common denominator.

What'd he say?

I think he is saying that every poster on JREF is an atheist in the same way that every catholic priest is a homosexual pedophile.

lemme try:
Nobody likes you.
Nobody likes athiests.
therefore, you become an athiest to cover up the fact that nobody likes you
But now you know why nobody likes you


or is could be woo...

Oh, dear... please don't let this guy take those "square peg, round hole" IQ tests... he may hurt himself.

Yes, even with a plastic hammer. Yes, really, I fear for him...

Myspace = having a life.

I also giggled.

[nicepants]

Absence of evidence is not evidence.....except when it is.

From Aldo Marquis CIT over at the new LCF

Absence of evidence is not evidence my friend.

Exactly. The lack of reports of a flyover is not evidence of a cover-up.

Please. The lack of south side flight path witnesses and now proven fraudelant flight path is evidence of a cover-up.
