March is here and so is spring/fall depending on your hemisphere. Let us accept change by not changing the successful inflow of hilarious Stundie nominations.

Rules for nominations:

1) Posts must be about Conspiracy Theories and not just nutty things in general.

2) Posts must exhibit ignorance, faulty logic or stupendous arrogance mixed with an ironic mistake.

3) No spelling errors, typos, grammar issues or math mix-ups unless they are deliciously ironic.

4) Posts must be humorous and not just something you disagree with.

5) All nominated posts must have some sort of link or screenshot to prove the reality of the post and it's source.

6) Keep the introductions short and sweet as Stundies should not need too much background.

7) Nominated posts should be cut down to the nominated part which should be concise and stand on its own.

8) This is not the place for ad hominems so a post should be funny independent of knowing who it is that said it.

9) Pictures are not allowed on their own but descriptions of pictures, provided they meet all other previously stated requirements, are allowed.

10) Videos are not allowed on their own but transcripts of videos, provided they meet all other previously stated requirements, are allowed even if you personally did the transcribing.


Have fun folks.
 
First time I've ever had the opportunity to suggest someone for a (potential) Stundie. Please feel free to slap my wrist if I end up botching it somehow, Travis.:)

From the 9/11 Conspiracy Theories thread, Steel structures cannot globally collapse due to gravity alone, I'd like to nominate bob the analyst for the following definition of "critical thinking":

Critical thinkers will always be on the side of not just taking the lame approach "I saw a big fire ball and a jet explode" as being for that's the reason the buildings collapsed."

Thanks! (Hope I did this correctly...;))
 
Ah, yes you did things correctly.

Wow. This new Bob is going to be a gold mine.
 
To show that we don't play favorites, I'll go ahead and nominate some delicious irony:
#7 has to be the most ignornant post I've ever read.

emphasis added

I know, he acknowledged the mistake later so it loses a lot of its stundie-ness, but it's only fair to mention it, at least.
 
Don't sweat it. It's not like it's gonna appear in the March Stundie Finals.:p

Ahem. Treachery noted.
 
Oh, I wouldn't sweat it. With the new Truthers we got on the board there won't be enough room for a little mistake like that even if I thought it warranted Stundie level.
 
This is from February, so is it ineligible?

Howdy folks, I haven't been following this stuff for a while, so I popped over to LCF to see how many threads a guy needs to read before finding a potential nomination. Turns out the answer was two.

From a thread unsettlingly titled researching backgrounds of alleged passengers poster JawsInc shows us the era of the investigoogler is finally drawing to a close. But not in the way we hoped...

Has anyone investigated the alleged passengers and their occupations, etc ... I was trying to cross reference the names in the Mousawi trial flash presentation and google'ing their names and Im not getting much, some but not much. There must be an easier way than this...

Oh I can not believe I got to this one first. It is right under our noses in our very own forum.

From Caustic logic we have this pearl.

My position on the issue is, sorry to say, there exists strong points of evidence that the Pearl Harbor debacle was due to a long-term plan to provoke Japan, provide the perfect target, enable and allow the attack, withhold intelligence from the target to ensure surprise, and manipulate the consequences. While there is no proofof this notion, it makes sense from a logic standpoint, and the entirety of evidence I'm aware of is totally consistent with it.

There is evidence that points to a logic conclusion that contains zero proof? Ouch brain hurts.

Bolding is his.

Thanks

I thought this might fit in:

Woo fighting woo, over woo. It's a crazy world :confused:

(I know I should pick one post, but it's hard to choose)

From Stich's example (welcome to the forums, incidentally, Stich!):

Well if you look at the live pictures from amateurs 9/11 one frame at the time, you can clearly see that the plane is a CGI. You can see the building repair itself after the wings are in the building. Don't you think that's funny?

Travis. Dude. SO nominated.:jaw-dropp:D
 
That's too good to not include.

Okay, here it is.

and to refresh everyone's memory about what Aldo said:

It looks like bill smith is living up to expectations. How about this for a new spin on confirmation bias?

It's probably possible to come up with other possibilitis for the spectra Jones found but considering that he was speciically looking for that signature- and found it is fairly convincing. That makes the other possibilities less likely.

In other words, if Jones hadn't been looking for thermite, the results wouldn't be convincing, but because he was looking for thermite, they are.
