Well the Tryptophan is wearing off and my kidneys are removing the arsenic from my system (don't tell me my family is the only one to use it in their stuffing) so here we go with the finals for the 28th Annual Stundie Awards for November, 2008.

1) Who needs depleted uranium armor and Haz Mat suits when we have Jesuits around?

Jesuits have survived an atomic blast at ground zero. They have been poisoned, shot, stabbed and still have survived....Popes who gave them the cup of Borgia found to their amazement and horror that they would not die.
****
2) Several hundred tons of explosives and knives....what's the difference?

Why would it be impossible that someone managed to get explosives in there? If it's completely impossible to plant something in a discrete way where it's not supposed to be, how do you explain the knives that the hijackers managed to get onboard the planes?
****
3) Some might say that someone who disbelieves anything they didn't see is cynical.....my theory is they're just insane.....and hard of heart.

Call me hard-hearted, but unless I am witness to the autopsy why should I trust news reports? Who ARE the news? What news?
****
4) It seems a lot of people die in this world....and I find that mighty suspicious since we, apparently, can just will ourselves to live.

...generally, doesn't it seem to you that very ill moms and grandmas often will themselves to stay alive through a big event, like a child's or a grandchild's graduation or wedding . . . .and then they die?

If she had been suffering for some time, than why didn't she die earlier?
****
5) Forgetting to not add zeros always throws me off too.

barack hussein obama 11/04/2008, dont add the zeros, 23, will be in office for 4 years, 2012 Mayans believed to be the end of the world, so maybe he will be the end of us!!!!
***
6) It seems that physics is in on the conspiracy too.

Thermal expansion has no proof ,it has no precedent.
****
7) Why it's almost as if there were some force that attracts mass to mass.

To me it looks almost as if cables are pulling on it! Although it's almost impossible to tell if it's a cable of floor assembly tugging it inwards. But when you also think about the unnatural direction of the top of the south tower when it begins to tip, yet seems to stop tipping and follow a path downwards, as if cables were stopping it from completely going over, keeping all the largest elements in the footprint?
***
8) What makes you look ignorant; talking about a book written by a philosophy professor in Scotland or thinking that the Scottish professor somehow owned slaves to work the moors?

Were you trying to make yourself look more ignorant by talking about a book written 250 years ago by a powerful, rich white man who owned many slaves with a extremely dated value system.
****
9) If you work in a branch of government that no one knows exists can you ever really know that your job actually exists?

Remember the movie Independence day, the president knew nothing of the secret underground base, I know its just a movie but I thought that seemed like a accurate portrayal. The secret facilities are probably maintained by another division of the government that no one knows about, just like theres a second space program besides NASA.
****
10) I've never checked this but I consider it a slam dunk that one way to check if your car is a Toyota is to run across the street and ask the neighbor if their car is a Pontiac.

BTW, I've never checked this, but I consider it a slam dunk that one way to identify a left gatekeeper organization is to see if they've covered the topic of left gatekeeping, itself, seriously.
****
11) That which-is-not-spoken-of is assured to exist which is why I never talk about a Caribbean tryst with Summer Glau..........damnit!

Hey guy's Try this out Search for any southern country (ie australia or malaysia) and nibiru within the last 24 hours. look at the descriptions of what it contains. Recent pics or whatever. I bet you cant find anything worthwhile.
****
12) You'd think the top of the human hierarchy would get more than 1% of the federal budget.

NASA know exactly what is on or is not on mars since they are near the top of the human hierarchy. To view the very top of this pyramid would mean direct communications with the vatican who authorise all space generated images prior to their publication. This is merely a game with them giving us up to date failures of communication with mars. They imply contact is halted as a result of some failure or whatever to keep us interested and accepting of their fabricated story.
****
13) Cognition, meet Dissonance. Dissonance, this is Cognition.

Keep in mind that this is the P/C board. Area 51 alien theories are commonly shared here enough that it's usually just assumed to be true, whether or not that's what really happened.
****
14) If 99% of the people think Karl Popper never lived then he never lived.....apparently.

Truth in science is based on consensus. If 99% of the scientists accept the earth-centric model, as was the case for 1500 years or so in Europe, than that's the truth for you. Until some 'liar' comes along with a different heliocentric model. Read Thomas Kuhn, The structure of Scientific Revolutions. In the end that story wins the truth-label that best/efficient explains observed facts.
****
15) Smokey The Bear warns about forest fires and then they happen......me thinks that anthropomorphic Ursidae is an arsonist.

To the best of our knowledge and according to the experts we trust and respect, there is no such thing as 'al Qaeda' any more than it existed in its original form as a CIA construct. Further, Osama bin Laden is, in all likelihood, no longer above room temperature. The 'warning' below is another indication of a major false flag attack...like 9-11, the 7-7 London bombings, the Spain train massacre, the Bali slaughter, etc. The Israelis often seem to warn about such attacks...and years later wind up being prime suspects or are somehow alleged to be involved in them. In this case, a nice clear warning would give them a post-attack blanket of insulation and plausible deniability.
****
16) Why do my ceramic plates always choose to destroy themselves when I drop them on the floor when they could choose to bounce?

They, the matchboxes, have two possibilites! Bounce or destroy themselves. So they decided to bounce. All explained above.

The upper part of WTC1 had the same choice.

Personally I would bounce.
****
17) So this is what happens when you combine lazy nihilism with political activism.

We can do something. We can stop voting
****
18) It seems that indestructible Jesuits are also both easily controlled and excellent long duration planners.

A Jesuit by trade is as controlled as a Jesuit priest. Wonder if Dan Brown knows that. You may say that they don't think that far ahead, well I have seen the document when the second world war was declared and that was in 1926.


There you have it folks. Vote and kill kittens.....er....no just vote.
 
Had to go with Independence Day, but this was a pretty good month.

I also like the guy who wants to witness every autopsy....ever....in order to believe the autopsy report. Wow.
 
#2 for the blissful absence of a sense of proportion.

#6 for outstanding services to cluelessness.

#10 because I know who posted it, and I find his extraordinary level of cognitive dissonance a perpetual source of entertainment.

#15 because I nominated it, and I remember the context.

And remember, folks, if you don't vote, the kittens could be killing you!

I have to admit, all the Jesuit stuff this month certainly took craziness to new, pathetic levels.
 
Well the Tryptophan is wearing off and my kidneys are removing the arsenic from my system (don't tell me my family is the only one to use it in their stuffing) so here we go with the finals for the 28th Annual Stundie Awards for November, 2008.

28th Annual? for November?

Is this the 28th monthly award? Or the 28th year it's been awarded in November?

Is there a joke I'm missing?

It's the 28th Annual every month.:D

Look at the trophy!

I'm sad that the "arabs are more semitic than the jews" comment didn't make it.
 
Is it possible to nominate the Stundie Awards for a Stundie Award for ultimate sadness?

I agree, except the Jesuit crap is not exactly new. It has been around for a long time. But we have had a nasty outbreak of it here. Maybe members of the Orange Order have begun posting here.

I have to go with #2 for it sheer stupidity.

However, I'll help you out.
At the time of their inauguration, one of the most prolific Stundie-ers was a poster called, curiously enough, Stundie.

However, nearly as prolific, and nearly as goofy, was 28th Kingdom.

So the very first one was the 28th Annual Stundie Award.
 
Is it possible to nominate the Stundie Awards for a Stundie Award for ultimate sadness?

Well, you could, I suppose. And you could enter a book in a film festival, or a cat in a dog show, or the reverse.

But as in those cases, don't be surprised if the entry doesn't finish well.
 
#6

The sheer arrogance of this assertion is only superseded by the ignorance it reveals.

Feature request:

Is it possible to include links to the original post in future Stundie polls in order to provide context?
 
Well looks like it's gunna be a scrap between 1, 6, and 16. Unlike last months clear victor.

That would create a recursive Stundie loop that would tear time and space apart and make Doc Brown very mad.

#6

A while back we had a blow up and it was decided to make the Stundies anonymous. However the quotes are from this thread where the links to their context is kept.
 
I'm sad that the "arabs are more semitic than the jews" comment didn't make it.

I intended to include it and simply forgot.:o Such is the peril when you do the poll early in the morning when you're not fully awake yet.

I'll probably carry it over to next months finals.
 
I was stuck between 1) and 16). In the end I went with 16) because of it's particularly spectacular level of stupid.

I almost didn't include 16 because it seemed to absurd that I couldn't believe that the poster actually wrote it but.....after checking it out.....:eye-poppi:covereyes
 
Bewildered newbie question

Could someone please explain this award for the newer arrivals? :D
