November Stundie Nominations

My faith in the people of Denver has been reaffirmed.

ditto!

I was despairing as I read the post only to see it through to its happy ending.

It's not just Denver. It's the whole state of Colorado. Granted Tom Tancredo was running as a third party candidate, but even with Tancredo as a spoiler this guy could only get 11% of the vote. That was probably everyone who just voted straight Republican without thinking.

Some people may not know that Stundie is a real person.....

You can put even more flesh on the bones over at Unexplained-Mysteries fora. Stundie makes frequent incursions into the 9/11 related threads over there.

Good hunting.

I take it you've never worked in an office?

Indeed, Dilbert is funny because its often true.
,,,, I work for a telecommunications company not too far removed from Dilbert's line of work.

As a matter of fact, I've heard of something called the "Dilbert factor" that consultants use to identify dysfunctional work teams - the more Dilbert cartoons tacked up around the office, the more likely the team is badly managed and poor-performing.

Non-union, we don't dare do that. Its just "did you see Dilbert yesterday?" with upraised eyebrows and knowing glances.

In our case its not bad local management but sometimes the decisions from on high in the head office, 1000 miles away, are too Dilbertian for comfort.

So you work in the Elbonian extension office then?

 

[Travis]

more from trope that I dislike: Everything that exists and happens in Real Life is restricted to what's proven by Mainstream Media and Mainstream Scientific establishments(what's the proper title for this trope?) and I can't believe this because the universe named Real life is bigger than Most(if not all) of all Fictional universes combined together

That damned Reality Trope always ruining things.

New not-a-conspiracy-theorist-honestly member madfoot disputes whether John Farmer's book says what it actually says, and posts a blurb off Amazon to try to prove it says something else instead. When Hokulele points this out:

If pointing out the fact that you are deliberately ignoring John Farmer's own words in favor of advertising copy for a book you haven't read isn't helpful ... well ...

You think I'm here to advertise his book? ^_^

Nominated for sheer non sequitur value, and total lack of any vestige of reading comprehension.

You know it when you see it because you see it when you know it:

It's not ALL common sense uke2se........, you simply have to use common sense to see when common sense applies.

''I was here.'' thats good. ''I were here'' thats bad ''We were here'' and ''We was here'' both ok.

Were is past tense contraction of we're which is a contraction of we are.

Rocks and sand are not we, they are mineral. There for they ''was'' contaminated is correct english.

"You we are at work today" reads like its missing a comma and your getting someone's attention and telling them you are both (or more, plural) at work today

Past tense, dummy "You were at work today" indecation that person saying it was also there.

"You was at work today" indecation that person saying it was not there.

Simple test, remember, plural person = Were, Singular person = Was Nouns = was

Was - Were - Past Tense of the verb "To Be"

http://forum.davidicke.com/showpost.php?p=1060362564&postcount=14034

Try the test paddy you will find were only goes with plural person

Was - Were - Past Tense of the verb "To Be"

The alleged mooon samples WAS water contaminated and chemically altered, apollogists know this, but its difficult to apologise without me giving them words to twist.

As a non plural person, all I can say is educashun, it wasn't all what it were cracked up to be

You know it when you see it because you see it when you know it:

So it's porn then. Who'd have thought that would be the way to reason everything out after all.

 

[RoboTimbo]

Never a dull moment with our Robert when talking about the Kennedy assassination and what we see in the Zapruder film.

Why does the zupruder film show the blow out being on the front of the head?

Because you have a biased imagination. It shows a jet effect blur of blood and tissue of an entrance wound caused by a bullet shot from the front.

So you work in the Elbonian extension office then?

Its a darned good thing I had not taken a sip of my soda as I was reading that.

No, but I can see Elbonia from my house......

Those were breathtaking. Thanks.

Has anyone told him that he can purchase a dictionary for a few bucks on Amazon?

Hell, there are free online dictionaries, most notably at... dictionary.com. But what do I know, that's probably controlled by the NWO, being a .com and all.

So apparently nothing gets colder if it's in a vaccum. Who would have thought?

after the exhaust leaves the rocket, the temperature can't change in a vacuum.
