So you all thought that a crippling double blow of stomach flu and food poisoning could keep the December Stundie Finals down forever! Ha! Even I will eventually stop explosively expelling..........I should probably stop writing about it right now.



Let it be known that once on the great information exchange known as the internet this was written by someone:


"My assumptions are correct and being common knowledge, are immune from attack."

And let it be known that it won a Stundie Award.

So now what you all want. The December Finals.

1) Hitler boasted about something he didn't have? Next thing you know you'll tell me he had a huge ego too.
nuclear reaction is not necessary to create that kind of explosion. Big explosion were already acheived using 'fuel and air bomb'. Germans used them on the russian front, with 4 mile blast radius.
***
2) I feel very sorry for the residents of a nation that thinks that testing intercontinental ballistic missiles requires no aerospace training because it isn't rocket science. I wonder how the brain surgery is done there?
Well one hardly needs any aerospace training for any of this (testing ICBM's) Jay...

It is ever so not very complicated, not rocket science in any sense of the term, literal or figurative.
***
3) Well shoot. If only the top of the WTC towers had only been a cup of water then things would have been fine. Alternatively, jetliners made of marshmallow would also have been neat.
As for "gravity makes things fall downward," Take water, pour it on top of a solid object, and tell us whether the water will then try to flow to the side or insist on flowing downward because of gravity. If there are alternatives to a falling object other than falling downward through a lot of resistance, the object will take those alternative paths.
***
4) That does it. Someone get the tech people from CSI working on the Unified Field Theory pronto.
The image in the video is scaled, at which point simple software (including expansion matrices, real simple linear algebra) can blow up the image for the software to any scale desirable, and the motion of the debris can be analyzed as to speed and acceleration to any degree of accuracy desired.
***
5) Step one: redefine all outcomes as part of success. Step two: declare "success."
It can not possibly “not work” because game contains every human behaviour imaginable. You can not do anything that is not “game”.
***
6) Um......they are made by more common looking Judges?
Case law is "judge made law".
Common law is something else.
***
7) It must be sad to live a life sequestered in a bubble devoid of exposure to all falling objects.
I don't really understand gravity and i'm not even sure I believe in it, since as yet no eveidence has been shown for its existence. I have seen plenty of evidence for the existence of electromagnetism though. Is there a chance magnetism is holding the Earth and Moon together?
***
8) I love it when rebels ask permission to go be all rebellious. I hate it when the obedient do nothing you ask of them.
Lawful Rebellion is a modern day name . the permission has been given and i for one am accepting it.
***
9) Yes, when the incompetent lawyer will no longer do I say you should throw caution into the wind and just go get advice from that screaming man on the corner who thinks the ghost of Ronald Reagan is hunting the ghost of Walt Disney for sport.
I have a legal problem causing me a great deal of worry. It is far to complex for yahoo answers so have decided to give the better informed David Icke team a chance to help me out.
***
10) In this alternate universe the USA isn't just afflicted by obesity but by hyper-obesity and anorexics apparently defy the law of conservation of mass. I assume most of them get burned as witches.
I eat 1-2 meals per day, and I’m almost never hungry. The conventional wisdom states that you should eat five meals a day, which is true if you’re eating a typical American diet and need to constantly snack to maintain your blood sugar. On a high-fat Paleo diet, your body gets used to using dietary and stored fats as its primary energy source, meaning you can go long periods without feeling tired, “hangry” (hungry + angry) or like your stomach is eating itself.
***
11) I can think of a few problems with attempting to exterminate a loosely defined group of people.
Whats wrong with killing fascists? We know from history what happens when you don't.

For some reason their isn't a concise, agreed upon definition for fascism.
***
12) Is there a non-pejorative name for specializing in the communication of the indecipherable?
I don't have any problems communicating with animals, other people or computers. However, 95% of what I write on this thread gets interpreted incorrectly.
***
13) If I ran the psychology zoo I'd have the manic-depressive tiger in the petting area. I'd also expect to be sued often.
He should proudly stand in front of the space ship he flew to the surface of the moon, give a thumbs up, figuratively speking of coures, AND HAVE HIS BLOOD YPICTURE TAKEN. THAT IS HOW HE SHOULD BEHAVE....
***
14) The key to keeping things secret is to make them more complex.
not only were these stories WAAAY back in most cases these stories were broken by one person and then the story spread. There are some stories so simple you CAN'T keep them under wraps (9/11 is a HUGE story with many complex areas to easily cover) And this doesn't change the fact that the media is now controlled.
***
15) Orbital mechanics get upended when it is realized everyone forgot to account for the huge rocket engines that keep planets moving.
You do realize, that the engines weren't running for the majority of the trip (to the Moon), right? You really and truly don't think the engines were running during the whole trip.
Is that how you believe things work?
Dont run the engines the majority of the 250,000 mile trip?
Try that next time you fancy driving out to the seaside and see how far you get.
250,000 miles carrying all that payload plus an extra 840lbs and all you have to power the spacecraft is some pretend sci-fi fuel cells.
You would actually have to make the entire journey without running the engines
***
16) That Grand Canyon is supposed to be impressive but when I flew over it I was able to cover it all up with my hand. How is a canyon smaller than my hand impressive?
Gravity is irrelevant in explaining Geocentricity, but still holds true regardless because the Earth is, as we can see with our eyes, much larger than the Sun.

We experience and observe a motionless Earth with a celestial sphere of Sun, Moon, Stars, and Planets revolving around us in perfect circles daily. We also experience the Earth as being gigantic and the Sun and Moon as being two equally sized circles in the sky for equal lengths of time every day. NASA tells us that actually the Sun is the biggest, then the Earth, and the Moon is the smallest, even though our experience clearly indicates that the Sun and Moon are equally-sized circles which appear equally far away from Earth
***
17) Fire always gets so dispirited when it discovers the things it wants to burn have already been flattened.
Hm. Cars flattened into steel pancakes by 110 "collapsing" highrise storeys (according to your theory) nevertheless managing to burn and melt. Enough to form molten pools.
***
18) Journal entry: November 1966. Today my boss asked me to Photoshop a picture. Tomorrow I start construction on the time machine to take me to some future where this presumably exists.
THE ONLY WAY THIS "TRICK" WORKS, THE ONLY WAY A MEASUREMENT TIMES A MAGNIFICATION FACTOR GIVES AN ACCURATE DISTANCE BETWEEN COMMON POINTS ON ANOTHER IMAGE IS IF THOSE TWO IMAGES ARE NOT IN FACT TWO DISTINCT IMAGES, BUT RATHER, THE VERY SAME IMMAGE, PERHAPS MAGNIFIED, PERHAPS ROTATED, PERHAPS PHOTOSHOPPED TO CHANGE COLORS OR TEXTURES OR SHADOWS, BUT THE IMAGES MUST BE, THE IMAGES CAN ONLY BE, THE VERY SAME, BY THE "SAME" I MEAN TAKEN FROM THE EXACT EXACT EXACT SAME VANTAGE POINT ........

As such, with this criteria being fulfilled in spades by the AS-37-5447HR and Lunar Orbiter ll 2085 pair, one may announce to the world, with utter unmitigated metaphysical certainty that AS-37-5447HR WAS NOT A PHOTOGRAPH TAKEN IN JULY OF 1969, BUT RATHER WAS TAKEN IN NOVEMBER OF 1966.
***
19) I am open to any idea except the one that would easily explain everything while remaining consistent with all recorded historical precedent.
Oswald, in the role of an double agent provocateur still wears a white hat. It does not necessarily mean he intended to participate in a plot to kill the President. Unlike you, while I may have a strong belief in his innocence as to shooting anybody, I am also open to other scenarios, except for the unlikely scenario of one Lone Nut acting alone. The blow-out wound to the back of the head negates that.
***
20) You're supposed to be some sort of expert butcher and yet you keep saying "beef" when you are talking about cow meat.
The RJ Lee report says nothing about "FE", idiot. "FE" is the NYSE ticker symbol for FirstEnergy Corp. Your attempts to pass yourself off as an expert in chemistry when you think "FE" has something to do with iron show you're a joke.

Although I've had many moments where I've just been dumbfounded while reading the various 9/11 threads, #17 and #20 are really two of the most astounding ones I've come across in my relatively short time here.

Plus #15 because...wow
 
#20, just because it's so heartwarming to see someone be so wrong and call the other person an idiot in the same sentence.

I almost went for Doctor Doolittle for Number 12, but upon reflection I think it's just rather sad.
 
I wonder if we'll ever have a poll where all 20 are Patrick1000's?
 
#2 is just a troll, though. He'll say anything stupid that will get a rise.

15 and 20, though, they're honestly that stupid. And 16.

16 is wonderful. It reminds of that one from a few months back who couldn't understand how anything older than him existed.
 
2, 9, 15, 16, and 20.

9 because the idea that some people actually think the DI forums are a good source of legal advice is just surreal.

15,16 and 20 are what I typically look for in Stundies, though. Unmitigated pride in one's own complete and absolute ignorance. 20 is one of the purest examples of such that I have ever seen.

on retrospect, maybe 2 was a mistake, Horatius is probably correct. the claim that testing rockets is not rocket science just seems to be working too hard for a stundie. I still liked it though.

If it had been said by someone else, it would certainly be a contender for Stundie of the Year, but his behaviour has shown him to clearly be a troll. No one who wants a Stundie should be allowed to get one; there are far too many deserving honest idiots out there!

P1K may well be a troll, but I'm not convinced that he doesn't believe the [Rule10] he ladles out. Some kooks consider trolling to be a viable strategy for spreading their message.
 
Looks like all the chemists just showed up to vote. :D
Nah, you don't need to be a chemist to go for 20. Having looked at the periodic table during High School Chemistry should be sufficient to recognize the stundilicious glory of #20
 
Well, that and remembering the latin for iron...

Patrick's on a run this month, not so much for Mr. PRey.

Patrick1000/fattydash/DoctorTea is a troll, and a demonstrated liar, but I think he actually seems to believe... well, whatever he makes up on the spot... in some weird sense. #2 perfectly captures his self-congratulatory arrogance and ignorance rather neatly.

But #20 is pure elemental Stundanium.
