Welcome to the “Official Nominating Thread†for the Top DUmmies of 2011!
This thread will be “locked,†for reading only, until sometime Thanksgiving Eve, probably about supper-time, and open for nominations and comments until 11:59 p.m. central time; 10:59 p.m. mountain time Saturday, December 3.
All members of conservativeunderground, P-J Comix’s DUmmie FUnnies, and conservativecave are invited to make nominations and comments. Those on conservativeunderground may post their nominations and comments on this thread there, and those here may post their nominations and comments on this thread here.
For members of the DUmmie FUnnies, and for those wishing to remain anonymous in making nominations, they may do so via e-mail to clarebootheluce@gmail.com Such nominations, sent to franksolich, will be kept confidential. I will publicly post the nominations under my own name, identifying them as coming from “someone else,†no more than that.
Voting will take place between circa supper-time Sunday, December 4, until 11:59 p.m. central time, 10:59 p.m. mountain time, Wednesday December 14. Voting may be done publicly on the “Official Voting Thread†on conservativeunderground, or here. Those who wish to keep their votes confidential, and members of the DUmmie FUnnies, will be directed to Mr. Wiggum, who is in charge of that aspect of the Top DUmmies; he has a special e-mail account for this purpose, and keeps such votes confidential.
Mr. Wiggum counts the votes and franksolich writes the awards; otherwise, the Top DUmmies of 2011, is the creation of all those who choose to participate.
There are no changes in the rules from past years.
Nominations are solicited for:
-the top DUmmies of 2011
-the Willie award
-the newbie award
-the broken elbow award
-the golden bong award
One may make as many nominations as one wishes, for any of these awards; Mr. Wiggum and franksolich however reserve the “right†to pare down the ballot, if the lists become too cumbersome. It’s never been the case—too many nominations—but we do reserve that “right.â€
Top Dummies are nominated based upon their notoriety exhibited during the past year. Which DUmmies impressed one the most? Which DUmmies made the biggest spalsh? Which DUmmies performed the most remarkable feats in 2011?
The twenty most-popular DUmmies will be awarded their prizes, some sort of, uh, literary piece by franksolich, in ascending order. First, the top DUmmies 11-20 in one fell swoop, and then the top Dummies 1-10 one at a time. The Top DUmmie of 2011 is of course the big prize, the gold medal, but the lesser prizes are nothing at which to sneeze either.
The Willie award, named for the Bostonian Drunkard, is given to the DUmmie who has done the most to enhance the reputation of democraticunderground; whichever DUmmie since the beginning, in 2001, has done a great deal to publicize and burnish the image of democraticundergound in the popular mind.
This, courtesy chris_, describes the criteria one should use for nominating a DUmmie for the Willie:
"I don't think there is a single blog out there I read that hasn't at least once linked to Democratic Underground's forum. The place is like a train wreck of human thought. You just can't help but gawk at their twisted logic and wild-eyed conspiracy theories. I've even ended up becoming addicted to the site. Any time there is breaking news, I think "I wonder what the nuts are saying about this" and head straight for DU. It's like a daily freak show." -- imao.us
Unlike the Top DUmmies, who may repeat from year to year, the Willie is awarded only one time to a particular DUmmie, and so the following, past winners, are not eligible for election:
-BouncyBall
-William Pitt
-TomInTib
The newbie award is given to the DUmmie who first came into prominence some time this past year, and made an impression; a DUmmie who’s never been acknowledged before.
If one isn’t sure a DUmmie’s new or not, feel free to nominate, and they’ll get sorted out, the eligible ones on the ballot.
The broken elbow award, inspired by the fortitude and stoicism and patience demonstrated by Traveshamockery and franksolich when they broke theirs, is given to the DUmmie considered to be the most constant and boring whiner on democraticunderground.
Since white is black and round is square and up is down on democraticunderground, the broken elbow award is for that DUmmie who did not bear his or her trials and tribulations with fortitude, stoicism, and patience, making far too much of pain and inconvenience.
It could be whining about physical misery, or whining about just about anything and everything.
The golden bong award is for the DUmmie that made up the best bouncy of 2011.
One might remember the story, but not the DUmmie who made it up; in that case, offer the details in this thread, and sooner or later someone else will match the tale with the DUmmie.
Tentatively, the schedule is this:
Voting closes on December 14
Mr. Wiggum counts the votes the next ten days
the golden bong awarded on December 23
DUmmies 11-20 awarded on December 24
the Willie awarded on December 25
the newbie awarded on December 25
the broken elbow awarded on December 25
DUmmies 2-10 awarded various times between December 26 and December 30
Top DUmmie of 2011 awarded about supper-time New Year’s Eve, December 31
-
This year’s Top DUmmies of 2011 contest is dedicated to the memory of the late Chief S itting Bull, the bird-smacking stoned red-faced primitive “Redstone.â€
When the Mount Rushmore of Great Primitives is finally sculpted, the angry mug of Chief S itting Bull will occupy the same place as does George Washington on the real Mount Rushmore.
Decent and civilized people have watched thousands of primitives come to and go from Skins’s island the past near-eleven years, most of them merely lumpenunterprimitiven, a faceless lynch mob, an amorphous blob, one scarcely distinguishable from any of the others in their corrosive rage, hatred, and anger.
There have been however some primitives worth noting, of which, as anyone with judgement and discernment and taste will agree, Chief S itting Bull was the greatest.
The bird-smacking stoned red-faced primitive proved a model, an ideal, a paragon, for the primitives lesser than him, in his colorful demonstration of being all that one should not be; a man of burning passion, violent habits, bombastic manners, vigorous hates, philistine tastes, intense anger, gangrenous bitterness.
God loved Redstone. It’s unfortunate that Redstone never reciprocated, because one cannot possibly respect and love oneself without first respecting God.
Perhaps unknown to mortal man in this time and place, Redstone did in fact recognize the pointlessness, the futility, the self-destructiveness, of his rage, hatred, and anger; that he had wasted his life and his talents on wrong and frivolous things, for which God forgave.
This one’s for you, Redstone, wherever you are; the primitives obviously don’t but decent and civilized people everywhere miss and mourn you.

Suggestions for nominations.
-one is of course free to just make nominations, and comment no further than that, but really, it helps one’s nominations if one “justifies†one’s choices, says something about why a particular DUmmie is worthy of recognition.
The “Official Nomination Thread†after all gives one a chance to “campaign,†to persuade. By the time the “Official Voting Threadâ€â€™s been posted, it’s too late to influence minds.
-if one remembers a comment or a characteristic of a DUmmie, but can’t quite place the screen-name, the “Official Nomination Thread†is the place to inquire. Feel free to ask; everybody’s omitted to remember an exact screen-name before, given the unimaginative nature of names the DUmmies call themselves.
(That, incidentally, is why franksolich sometimes re-baptizes a primitive with a more-appropriate, more-descriptive name; it helps on identification.)

Okay, we're now open for nominations a little bit early; I had forgotten not everybody lives like franksolich, and that some are going to be traveling today, and want to get some smacks in before they leave.
So the "Official Nomination Thread" is now open, until Saturday night December 3.
I'll start off, even though I'm always more comfortable being the guy who shuts off the lights after everybody else has left. It's my destiny, to be the last one out (a destiny with which I have no problem).
nadin for top primitive of 2011.
I'm not saying I'll vote for nadin; I'm nominating her because opinions are sharply divided here, pro-nadin and anti-nadin, and franksolich can take the onus better than many others.
I have a big list of other nominations for top primitive (don't worry, grouchy old Don over on Skins's island; you're on the list, and guaranteed to be on the ballot, so hold your horses, I'll get around to nominating you sometime over the next ten days), but I'll post those later.
EFerrari
Andy Stephenson
hippywife for the Willie Award, given the primitive who's helped spread, and enhance the good name and reputation of Skins's island over the years; only one's elected, but one can nominate more than one for the ballot.
snoutport for the newbie award, given a primitive who's never before been in the top twenty, ever, and made quite a splash this past year.
Cyrano
mopinko for the broken elbow award, given a primitive who whines and bawls and bitches and carries on and wails and wrings the hands over the stupidest littlest worries or pain.
Horse With no Name for the best bouncy of 2011; actually there's four of them, and they were all great bouncies.
I'll get around to explaining the "whys" of my nominations as this thread gets going; the "Official Nomination Thread" by the way usually ends up one of the longest threads ever, in the DUmpster.
-
nadinbrzezinski for everything. Also Vinny The Dude for DUmmie of the year.
-
nadinbrzezinski for everything. Also Vinny The Dude for DUmmie of the year.
Your nominations duly noted, sir, but nadin's not eligible for the newbie award, having been around Skins's island before 2011, and a few times before November 2010, her campfires were featured here. Of course, since November 2010, she's pretty much dominated the DUmpster, for better or for worse.
I'm seriously considering voting for the sparkling husband primitive this year; I didn't last year, because the sparkling husband dude by then had developed this most annoying habit where he was respectful of other members here, but always cursorily dismissed franksolich with a wave of the hand.
The sparkling husband primitive's prejudiced against deaf people; doesn't like them, thinks we should stay in our place, mute and unheard.
I'm nominating my fellow Nebraskan, Omaha's Ed Norton, Omaha Steve, for top primitive.
Many here see Omaha's Ed Norton as a blue-collar union worker, or a candidate for the city council in Bellevue, Nebraska, or as being 1/64th derived from Native American blood (overlooking the 63/64th part of him that's Polish or Irish), or as a freeloader wanting other people to give him things, or as a rabid promoter of socialism, or as a fan of the Green Bay Packers, or as a [Star] Trekkie.
Omaha Steve and franksolich are Nebraskans, and Nebraska being a pretty small state, we sort of kind of in a vague way know of each other in real life.
Omaha's Ed Norton is, if nothing else, a con man, a scammer, looking for the easy buck.
One noticed this right away in his breathless announcement he was running for city council in Bellevue, one of the reddest cities in Nebraska; about the first thing he mentioned was that he was settling up an account to accept campaign donations. Nothing about what he planned to do, if elected, for the good people of his city, only about that he'd be accepting campaign donations.
I know what was running through my fellow Nebraskan's mind--he'd take all this cash given him by the primitives, consult a national schedule of Star Trek conventions, register for those located in blue cities where there might be some Democrat event going on about the same time, and voila! he and Marta would get to hang around with Trekkies, even buying some stuff. All on other people's dimes.
Never wants to pay his own way through life, Omaha Steve.

My choices:
DUmmie of the Year: nadinbrzezinski, aka Know-it-all Nadin. Nads has willed herself, thrust herself, to the head of the class this year, like a radioactive death cloud from Japan. She has crossed the Rubicon of immortality.
Willie: EFerrari, aka Doug's stupid ex-wife, formerly known as sfexpat2000. From the days of the Andy Stephenson Situation until now, she has been a constant of stupidity.
Newbie: Sarah Ibarruri, aka Sarah Ibuprofen. Her threads about her kind, attentive, but (gasp) rightwing boyfriend have been a hoot.
Broken elbow: Cyrano. I just DUFUed his whining about having Thanksgiving with wingnut relatives. (Kentuck would be a good choice, too.)
Golden bong: Dreamer Tatum . . . although his grocery store bouncy may need an asterisk, if you know what I mean.
-

Alas, Sarah's been featured before, in the DUmmie FUnnies, at our old home, and here; so she's not a new primitive for 2011.
However, she can be nominated for top primitive, and for bouncies, if one wishes.
Broken elbow: Cyrano. I just DUFUed his whining about having Thanksgiving with wingnut relatives. (Kentuck would be a good choice, too.)
And what an excellent (as usual) edition of the DUmmie FUnnies that was; for those who haven't seen it yet, it's linked in the DUmpster.
Oscar Wilde, the large-proboscised primitive, is a real piece of work.
Golden bong: Dreamer Tatum . . . although his grocery store bouncy may need an asterisk, if you know what I mean.
Good choice. Excellent choice.
-

Then make it so! Know-it-all Nadin is definitely my top choice for DUmmie of the Year, but I would put Sarah Ibuprofen on the finalists' stage with her, the girls holding hands as Bert Parks reads off the names.

Okay, crazy Sarah's been nominated for top primitive.
Someone might wish to nominate her for the golden bouncy too, because of all her tall tales about her Republican boyfriend.
I myself have always been hostile towards crazy Sarah because back in 2004, she promised to leave the United States if George Bush were re-elected. Well, George Bush was re-elected, but crazy Sarah never left.
If she had a shortage for the airfare, I'm sure decent and civilized people could've arranged it for her.
This is Thanksgiving Eve, and so traffic's naturally slow, and I thought about posting more of my own nominations for top primitives (remember, there's twenty of them, after all the votes are counted), but no, I'll wait.
-
It's the middle of the night, and I'm bored.
The senior business partner should get here soon, by about 2:00 a.m.; accounting business, and I discovered some chicanery.
It's always nice to know in advance when someone's coming, and one isn't caught off guard.
Anyway, while I'm waiting.....
I second MoshMasterD's nomination of the sparkling husband dude, Stinky the Clown, for top primitive of 2011; he hasn't been as entertaining this year, as he was last year, but still, he's been pretty good, whining to my fellow alum Skins about moles on Skins's island and all that.
(For the record, the sparkling husband dude and franksolich's mole have never even brushed elbows with each other on Skins's island; franksolich's mole assiduously avoids primitives featured in the DUmpster.)
And there was the sparkling husband dude's reaction to that put-down by the FrenchieCat primitive, about his being the laughingstock of the internet.
In fact, the sparkling husband dude's been quite a whiner, whining about use of the word "dude;" he almost, but doesn't quite, qualifies for nomination for the broken elbow award, though, unless someone else here thinks so.
-
Willie: EFerrari, aka Doug's stupid ex-wife, formerly known as sfexpat2000. From the days of the Andy Stephenson Situation until now, she has been a constant of stupidity.
Doug's stupid ex-wife is an excellent choice for the Willie, because of the way she master-minded--or rather, master-retarded--the Scamdal six and a half years ago, bringing much notorious infamy to Skins's island, making it the laughingstock of the internet.
That was the height of her public-relations work, but since then, she's continued a great job of making Skins's island look good with her utter stupidities.
I was torn over whether or not to nominate her puppet, the late red round one (the nominations are separate, not together as one), until I remembered that he freely and voluntarily allowed himself to be used. But if someone wants to nominate them as a pair too, it's all good.
As for the actual voting, though, I'm still leaning towards hippywife, also known as Mrs. Alfred Packer. She was so good at promoting the cooking and baking forum on Skins's island for so many years, making it probably the largest "little forum" there, exceeding in size even the "applying for social security disability" forums.
Every time Mrs. Alfred Packer showed up there, she drew, like a magnet.
The cooking and baking forum's been collecting cobwebs since she went away, alas.
The only problem with this is that I'm not sure if she's still in this time and place (but just simply away from Skins's island), or if she now occupies the freezer, in multiple parts wrapped up in white paper and tied with string, at the homestead down there in northeastern Oklahoma, making awarding the prize posthumous.
-
Horse with No Name (Ms. Ed, the unappellated eohippus) and Viva_Daddy have been nominated by one of our colleagues, NJCardFan, for top primitive.
I dunno of the dad primitive; can anyone here enlighten as to what he's been about?
-
Okay, here it is, about the dad primitive:
http://www.conservativeunderground.com/forum505/showthread.php?t=46017
It's the one about the primitive not being proud of being an American, and was posted here too; I just hadn't looked at the name of the primitive who lit that campfire, casually assuming it was just some other primitive who doesn't need mentioned (sometimes one can identify a primitive by the subject of his campfire, but in this case, I goofed).
-
In nominating Horse With no Name, Ms. Ed, our colleague over there offered a thread that as far as I know, was never here:
"pepper spray at a gun show"

My nomination for DOTY is nadin; however, even as her unofficial CC advocate I can not promise that she will get my vote as I'm still disappointed that she hasn't used her vast knowledge of all things to instruct the occupiers in proper sanitation and health techniques.
Stinky the Clown for the Willie
Horse with no Name for the best bouncy.
Who is the primitive that follows nadin around and kisses her feet, wipes her arse, etc.? I feel the need to nominate her for something.

Might that be the malarial primitive, the "malaise" primitive from Jamaica, the hurricane expert?

That would be the one. I don't know how long she's been around, but if she qualifies for the newbie I'd like to nominate her.

The malarial primitive's been around for quite a while, but surprisingly she's never been in the top twenty primitives any year, so she qualifies.
malaise for the newbie.

On this day, a day dedicated to giving thanks to God for all that one has--and if one's an American, one has more than what everybody else in the world has, riches and opportunities beyond the wildest imaginations of most in the world, especially all suffering under the jack-boot of leftist socialist totalitarians--one is compelled to nominate ThomWV for top primitive.
The mountain man primitive recently had brain surgery, but is recovering well, due to the finest medical treatment available anywhere.
In case one's forgotten, the mountain man primitive's the one who yelled-and-screamed at his sister-in-law when she wanted to say Grace before dining; mocked her and ridiculed her and made fun of her; you see, the mountain man primitive, who like all men nightly pitches his tent one day's march nearer the mausoleum, imagines himself an "atheist," although that's not really true. The mountain man primitive believes in Jack the Father, Bobby the Christ, and Vast Teddy the Holy Ghost with fundamentalist fervor and enthusiasm.

Here's a new one, and it deserves to be quoted in full:

For newbie, I nominate the DUmmie/Primitive white_wolf.
Long have a watched this one...
white_wolf is an excellent example of a DUmmie/Primitive. He is white male college student who thinks he knows it all. I wasn't sure he'd make it this year as several times he got his furry ass handed to him on the DUmp but he's a Commie Socialist so his fellow DUmmies would pat him on the head and mildly "correct" him.
white_wolf also had the balls to come over here on CU for a while until his account was accidently deleted by me. And it really was an accident, he's welcome back anytime.
white_wolf, the lupine blanco, has never been in the top twenty primitives, so the nomination's good, for the newbie award.
-
I feel that Taverner needs to be nominated - if only because not even getting a nomination might be the straw that breaks the camel's back and pushed him into doing something really stupid.
More generally for striking whilst unemployed, being an obviously drug-ridden drunk, happily posting about his criminal relatives, play-acting at supporting various sub-brands of socialism (whose nuances fly a thousand feet over his head)...
-
Lest we forget....
W8liftinglady
Although she has left us hanging about her miscreant daughter of vandalism fame and other sordid tales of the spawn's mispent youth, she did start a "shout out" thread at the DUmp whereas I was mentioned toward the end.
My repayment for the courtesy is nomination to the DOTY list for 2011.
-
Was it Cali or Kali who managed to get herself wallduded? In anyplace She deserves to have her name thrown in the pot.
Bobothehobo was going pretty strong earlier this year as well. The subway cat from my home state is always close to my heart and has managed to be pretty consistent between commitments.
And of course nadin for top DUmmy.
-
Okay, the Taverner primitive's nominated, and will be on the ballot for top primitive, as I thought he would be, and I expect he's going to finish rather highly.
The weight-lifting primitive's also now on the ballot, for top primitive of 2011.
Remember, there's twenty primitives, not just one, who win, although of course the number one ranking is the gold medal. However, a silver or bronze is nothing to sneeze at either.

I'm kind of unclear about this, madam, so please clarify.
That was the bitter old Vermontese cali primitive who wallduded herself.
There's a Kali primitive, but she's much younger and much prettier, and lives down in the southernmost part of Texas.
I know you mean the bitter old Vermontese cali primitive, and that you've nominated nadin for top primitive, but am unclear about what you wish to do with bobbolink and underground panther. Nominate them for top primitive, or one of the other awards?

I have to think about the others, but for the main award, right now I nominate Nads and Sarah Ibuprofen (I think Go Bucks calls her that LOL).

Then make it so! Know-it-all Nadin is definitely my top choice for DUmmie of the Year, but I would put Sarah Ibuprofen on the finalists' stage with her, the girls holding hands as Bert Parks reads off the names.

Newbie = fire walk with me; been on their greatest page daily for a month or so reporting on the freaks crapping on city sidewalks.
Golden Bong = Sarah Ibuprophen; boyfriend bouncy.
Broken Elbow = Taverner; consistent insanity.
DOTY = I must wait on this one. I know it'll be nads, but once again this year I can hardly bear to see the most obvious POS win this coveted award.

Okay. fire_walk_with_me, or however the primitive styles it, is on the ballot for the newbie award.
I haven't checked--in a hurry, getting ready to head off--but I believe crazy Sarah's already on for the golden bong.....but if she's not, she is now.
And the Taverner primitive for the broken elbow award.

On this, the latter half of the day decent and civilized people give thanks to God, I'm nominating mike_c, the mike_c primitive, for top primitive of 2011.
The mike_c primitive's a real military hater--unless it's the Islamic militia and irregulars, then he loves them.
I'd like to see the mike_c primitive try jamming a long-stemmed flower down the barrel of a rifle wielded by a terrorist..... (One has to be pretty old to remember what this refers to.)
The mike_c primitive also thinks he's more intelligent than God.
The funniest thing about the mike_c primitive, however, is that while he rails and rages against the capitalist system, he's getting ready to retire on a luxurious professorial pension funded by.....the capitalist system. If the mike_c primitive were an honest man, he'd spurn that pension, given it's from what he thinks of as "tainted money."
The mike_c primitive about 60 years ago came from a close and loving and civilized family in small-town Kansas; one wonders if he'd actually been adopted, not born into it.

Top DUmors
Know-it-All Nadin obviously
Fire Walk With Me (I think this one has made quite an impression this year)
Crazy Sarah
Stinky the Clown
Eferarri
The Straight Story
Proud2BDumb
UndergroundPanther (as per usual, her stories are totally nuts, and somehow still entertaining)
kpete
Taverner
Bobbo the Hobo should have a place between 15-20. She's left a special, dirty place in all our hearts.
The Pittstain.
Those are just off the top of my head. I'll get to more eventually before the deadline.
Newbie: Fire Walk With Me
Busted Elbow: Nadin
Willie: Nadinbrzinski: She may bring home 3 awards as far as I'm concerned
Golden Bong: Not all too many bouncies interest me. Suffice it to say, I haven't payed much attention to many of them. Once in a while, there will be an extraordinary one that with draw me in, but that's rare. I'll let y'all take care of this one.
I'd like to see the mike_c primitive try jamming a long-stemmed flower down the barrel of a rifle wielded by a terrorist..... (One has to be pretty old to remember what this refers to.)
My father told me about that when his brother, my uncle, was serving. Also told me that someone he knew got in trouble for discharging his weapon after said flower was placed in his firearm. :-)

underground panther deserves some kind of recognition for the magnum opus that was captivating enough that I was able to read it in its entirety: "Why I Hate the Rich." Might as well be DOTY.

Sorry about that.

This morning, I'm nominating Oscar Wilde, the large-proboscised primitive Cyrano, for top primitive.
Oscar Wilde's already been nominated for the broken elbow, the whiner award, but I think he deserves to be a top primitive of 2011 too, and there's nothing to stop a primitive from winning one of the top primitive spots, and a special award.
The large-proboscised primitive's always been pretty prominent on Skins's island, and true, it's always been his cry-babying about this or that--and hence the nomination for the broken elbow--but simply that because he's such an outstanding primitive, I think he deserves this too, consideration for top primitive.
Oscar Wilde made the bottom half of the top twenty one time before--and only one time--and I've always been surprised he's never cracked into the top half of the top ten.

Good Morning, fellow CC'ers.
Today, I'd like to offer a nomination for the Willie Award.
Yes, after a long thought on the subject of who would be the Special DUmmie that best encapsulated the epitome of what really makes the DUmp such a cesspool of STUPID, I nominate the recently departed DUmmie PROUDDAD.
PROUDDAD, you all may recall, was so enthusiatic about joining in on a National General Strike back in the spring that he thought maybe, MAYBE, he'd almost be willing to get a JOB for that purpose.
Alas, the strain of looking for that elusive employment apparently cracked his nut and he spouted off on some tangent that Skinner disapproved, resulting in the tombstoning of the PROUDDAD, now known far and wide as shydad. as in ONE CAN SHY OF A SIXPACK, possibly unappreciated and probably unable to return to the DUmp that was so near and dear to his tiny little heart. Maybe...
So, during the vote for the WILLY AWARD, Please join me in raising your clenched left fist and extend your wiggling fingers in uptwinkles for PROUDDAD.
Oh, and here's the link to the thread wherein PROUDDAD shoned so brightly in his eagerness to vacate the corner and put down his "UNEMPLOYED, NEED FOOD! BUT DON'T TELL ME TO GET A JOB" sign.

Now, that's a wonderfully grand nomination, sir; I like it!
-
I can't believe she hasn't been mentioned yet, but I'd like to nominate, for the Willie, CaliforniaPeggy. She is a gracious presence on Skins's Island--the Perle Mesta of DUmmieland, the hostess with the mostest, always greeting her fellow primitives with a "My dear this" or a "My dear that." On top of that, CalPig is the poet laureate of the DUmp.
Also, somewhere in the Top Twenty for DUmmie of the Year--maybe not in the Top Ten this year, but perhaps in the pool of nominees for the Top Twenty--should be the usual suspects, those longtime standbys of the DUmp not nominated yet: CaliforniaPeggy, WilliamPitt, Raven, Kentuck, the list goes on and on.
Skinner, EarlG, Elad--are they eligible for anything?
-
MineralMan should be in the Top Twenty somewhere, perhaps. He has been an active presence this year.
Sid Dithers has been one of my favorites this year, for sure! He has been following Know-it-all Nadin around, from thread to thread, always giving her a hard time, always doing it with style and wit! I love it! He must be #1 on her iggy list. And so I nominate Sid Dithers for the DOTY. Hmm, I wonder if he's a . . . LOUSY FREEPER TROLL???
Oh, and I STRONGLY favor Nads for Top Primitive. I know some of you want to go against the obvious choice, but come on, really! She's way over the top, yes, and annoyingly so. But also comically so, and that's what makes her our Nadin! IMHO, the All-knowing One has been the stand-out, break-out star this year, certainly on the DUmmie FUnnies.
VOTE NADIN

I am going to throw sub atomic in for whatever he is eligible for. He is making a late run it seems.

4. I am NOT just a sexual object.
I would be offended, esp. if the comment were made by someone I have zero respect for. And doing it publicly would just be the damn icing on the cake.
It is quite one thing to be a love object. It is quite another thing to be "masturbation material."

She is making greenbriar look like an amateur. Even thought to me the posting styles are similar for some reason.

Jus say no to Bobo the Hobo. She is so 2010. Yes, bobbolink was my #1 choice for DOTY last year--getting the Pittster banned, constantly whining about her homelessness from the back of her Buick. But this year, the Homeless One has been largely AWOL.

I offer in NOMINATION for the AWARD called the GOLDEN BOUNCY, CALI, the bitter old vermontese primitive.
Who can forget the bitter old Vermontese primitive's spouting of all those bitter words complaining about the "summer people" that visited her place of employment and insulting a family from Washington DC, our great nation's capital city. Beyond the description of the livestock and fami;ial pets that roamed the grounds and eating area as she "WALLDUDED" herself into a spiral of negativity and unemployment.
No more General Strikes for CALI!
And, there was the almost simutaneous accident at her home, breaking her leg in several places and forced to crawl, yes CRAWL!, to her neighbors to call an ambulance. Because she had her telephone upstairs and she brilliantly decided that the quarter to half mile ordeal of dragging her unemployed butt through the slime and mud along the lane instead of up the dry and warm stairway for 25 feet.
The double whammy bouncy, part one to ingratiate herself to the local board moonbats, one of which immediately ratted her out, and the next to garner sympathy from the same looney bunch, was spine tingling and captured our attention over the span of, oh, a week or so.
Fellow CC'ers, when the nominations are complete and the calls for voting commence, join me in voting the GOLDEN BOUNCY for CALI. Look at it as a way of saying "See, you stupid wretch! Serves you right!".
-
For DUmmy of the year...Kentuck,it makes the average DUmbass look smart.
For the Willie...Alan Grayson,only at the DUmp can a lunatic that lost his Congressional seat by a landslide in his first reelection bid be worshipped as a Presidential shoe in.
For newbie... socialist_n_TN,another pie in the sky Utopian fool.

Now, that's a wonderfully grand nomination, sir; I like it!
Thanks, franksolich. A real compliment, coming from you.

I know it may be a little late this year but I am wondering if a new award could be offered? While reading and having a good chuckle at the posts that stand alone thread and there are some real gems in there.
Could we have an award for the single post that best defines skins island? This would allow some of the less prolific primitives the chance at some glory.
A small example from the babbling sister primitive.

Cell phone question...
just bought a cheapie Samsung because my cell phone died, apparently from humidity and sweat. I bought it in December 2010 and AT&T will not honor the warranty.
Anyhow, there's a film over the main window that displays "Texting and driving...it can wait" and obscures the window. Any ideas on how to get rid of that short of getting a straight razor and getting it off that way? It's driving me crazy and I can't see what I'm doing.

Are any of those nominations, sir?
Your nomination of the CalPig primitive has been duly noted, and she's now on the ballot.
Revolution nominated the Bostonian Drunkard, and he's on the ballot, although I forgot to include him in my last list. But the Bostonian Drunkard is there.
I see Carl downthread has nominated the bluegrass primitive, "Kentuck."
But as for the mother of the Bostonian Drunkard unless yours is a nomination, she remains unnominated.
Skinner, EarlG, Elad--are they eligible for anything?
Yes, they are, for any of the top primitive spots and the special awards excepting of course the newbie.
-
Is that a nomination for Mineral Man for top primitive, or just a suggestion someone nominate him?
Sid Dithers has been one of my favorites this year, for sure! He has been following Know-it-all Nadin around, from thread to thread, always giving her a hard time, always doing it with style and wit! I love it! He must be #1 on her iggy list. And so I nominate Sid Dithers for the DOTY. Hmm, I wonder if he's a . . . LOUSY FREEPER TROLL???
Duly noted, and he's now on the ballot.
The dithering primitive's the one who made that statement last September that surely must justify the existence of the DUmpster and decent and civilized people who mock the primitives.
On a thread about a certain religious denomination (Christian of course), the dithering primitive said, ".....if you don't want people laughing at your beliefs, don't have such funny beliefs....."
I'm going to throw that out the next time a primitive whines about us laughing at them; after all, it was one of their own who said it.
Oh, and I STRONGLY favor Nads for Top Primitive. I know some of you want to go against the obvious choice, but come on, really! She's way over the top, yes, and annoyingly so. But also comically so, and that's what makes her our Nadin! IMHO, the All-knowing One has been the stand-out, break-out star this year, certainly on the DUmmie FUnnies.
It's okay; I just have that anti-nadin avatar at the moment because the stomach was still having problems with my having dined upon traditional Thanksgiving fare at noon yesterday, and then a whole large double-pepperoni pizza about five hours later.
The calories were probably elephantine, but I don't have a problem with calories at the moment, in fact quite the opposite.
But trust me, turkey and pepperoni don't get along.
nadin's credentials as a "historian" are shit.
She seems to take the view that all things move left, over a long period of time, when anyone competent in history knows that all things move all directions all over the place over a long period of time.
She's convinced the "revolution"'s not over yet, that there's more to cover, going left.
nadin's revolution is over, and withering away; the revolution's now in the other direction.
She's like a horse, or rather an ass, with a blinder over the right eye, seeing only out of the left eye.
Contrary to her pretensions, nadin's not very smart.
But anyway, I haven't decided not to vote for nadin for top primitive; it's all still very much in the air; I simply invented the avatar as a public service for the anti-nadinites.
-
I am going to throw sub atomic in for whatever he is eligible for. He is making a late run it seems.
The sub atomic primitive is eligible for top primitive, the Willie, the newbie, the broken elbow, and the golden bouncy.
Also the calpig for the Willie as well. She sure did give me the willies with this post.
The CalPig primitive, who's been nominated for top primitive, is now also nominated for the Willie.
-
frank, is it appropriate to nominate someone for DOTY whom we don't think should be "It," but should appear somewhere in the Top Twenty? If so, then I think Raven, aka Mother Pitt, should be nominated. I don't think she belongs in the Top Five, maybe not in the Top Ten, but I do think she could sneak her way into the Top Twenty.
Now of the Troika of the U.S.S.D., I nominate two of the Big Three for the Willie: your fellow alum, Skinner himself, and his Mini-Me, DUAC EarlG. (I am not nominating Elad, since he doesn't do much except shuffle the electrons.)

Sorry, madam, but it's too late to add awards.
Probably next year this'll be possible, provided it's decided to discontinue one of the other special awards.
Notice, please, no "Annie" this year; the Annie was discontinued in favor of the newbie because last year, the first and only year the Annie was offered, there seemed to be too much confusion about the standards for the Annie.
Right now, it appears the broken elbow and the golden bouncy are on the ropes, as some nominations for those don't seem to make sense, at least to me. The broken elbow's for the biggest whiner, and the golden bouncy's for the best bouncy.

Chan790 for run-of-the-mill Top DUmmies. Chan is sort of a marathon poster. Once he gets going in a thread, the stupid just keeps getting piled on thicker and thicker. Two great examples:

Describe your dream job.
Edited on Wed Aug-17-11 05:13 PM by Chan790
I was just thinking about this, now that I am unemployed, I can in-theory do anything I want as a career. My world is wide open. And yet, my dream job is:
*Strictly 9-5.
*Provides a clear work/life divide.
*Pays a moderate-low amount of money, say $30K, with little or no chance of significant raise or promotion.
*White-collar
*Not client-facing.
Beyond that, I don't really think I have any great career aspirations. I just want to work, get paid, not have quotas to meet, go home, leave all my work @ work and live my life. I want to be a paper-pusher. Really. I want Peter's job from Office Space except I'm not showing up on weekends either.
Chan790, Cubicle Rat ISO Cage.

Yes, of course, sir.
There's twenty top primitives, and the Bostonian Drunkard's mother surely belongs at least somewhere in the bottom half of the top twenty. If one wishes, go ahead and nominate her.
Now of the Troika of the U.S.S.D., I nominate two of the Big Three for the Willie: your fellow alum, Skinner himself, and his Mini-Me, DUAC EarlG. (I am not nominating Elad, since he doesn't do much except shuffle the electrons.)
The nomination made, and accepted, although I'm going to amend it, adding the elusive enigmatic Elad to it, because I had planned to nominate the Big Three from the beginning.
This issue came up last year, as it presents an unusual situation for franksolich, who has to write the awards.
"Unusual situation" does not mean "can't be handled," though.
Given the old school tie that binds, the award for my fellow alum Skins would necessarily have to be highly complimentary, as we don't say anything bad about each other. In fact, Skins and franksolich don't even know anything bad about each other, and if we did, neither of us would believe it.
The elusive enigmatic Elad makes a slippery eel look as if a barnacle, he's so elusive. I'd be hard-pressed to give him more than half a paragraph, for what I know of him.
Only Lord Marblehead EarlG could possibly get the full treatment from franksolich.
So this nomination presents some problems, but not unsurmountable ones.

Your nomination of Chan790 duly noted; he's on the ballot for top primitivity.

I'd also like to nominate the grasswire primitive, for all of the idiotic pie shop stupidity from this year. I found the "opening the pie shop" thread, but I can't find the one where she offered to make poor people pay more for their pies than union members, teachers, and other high society.

Your nomination of the grasswire primitive, puttering around Milwaukie, Oregon wearing six layers of winter coats even in the heat of summer, dragging a child's toy red wagon behind her, is noted; she's on the ballot.
As to your query, it's here, and you don't need to look for it. It was a thread where the grasswire primitive needed to take magnesium pills, or something like that, and evolved into directions and areas far afield, concerning the town where the grasswire primitive lives, including that newspaper article about her.

Here are mine (ty whiffleball, I borrowed your format):
Newbie = Snoutport. although I always believed he was a sockpuppet of a previously banned DUmmie, so not technically a newb.
Golden Bong = Sarah Ibuprophen; boyfriend bouncy.
Broken Elbow = Omaha Steve, biggest whiner on the inner-webs.
DOTY = nadin

Broken Elbow = Omaha Steve, biggest whiner on the inner-webs.
My fellow Nebraskan's no stoic, that's for sure.
I'm torn three ways, between Omaha's Ed Norton and Oscar Wilde and the hypochondrial primitive "mopinko," for this specific award, given the primitive voted the biggest whiner on Skins's island.
Every time I read Oscar Wilde, the large-proboscised primitive "Cyrano," I get this impression I'm "hearing" a constant sort-of-serrated twanging nasal hum (sorry; that's the best I can describe it).
And the hypochondrial primitive "mopinko" always always always whines about the failure of modern medicine and technology to cure her pains, many of which appear to be illusionary. But the last straw, for me, was when she got all upset and bent out of shape because her husband told her therapist that "mopinko" was a remarkable woman. She was upset because he'd told her therapist that, but never told her that.
Whoa. That's one thing I could never understand about women; they prefer words over deeds.
"mopinko"'s been married a very long time now, to a man dedicated to working hard and long to keep her housed, fed, and clothed, and to allow her to indulge in what she calls her "art," but which aesthetes call something quite different. The guy busts his ass to keep her comfortable and happy, and she doesn't see that.
I suppose if he didn't do a damned thing for her, gave her nothing, but uttered empty words, "mopinko"'d be happy.
That's always thrown me for a loop, when women are that way; they want "words" of love, not acts of love.
Damn.
Omaha Steve, I have a grudge against, because he's nothing more than a con-man trying to get something for nothing, a "victim" of ethnicity despite his heavily-Polish or -Irish descent--he's after all only 1/64th Native American, and looks more Caucasian than franksolich, the other 63/64ths of him. He makes people from Nebraska look bad, always trying to get things for free.

This morning, I'm making a nomination I didn't expect to make, that of Pedro Picasso, the Atman primitive, for top primitive of 2011.
Pedro Picasso's been really lacklustre all year long, hardly putting out because his employers don't like him hanging around Skins's island lest one of their potential clients hear about it.
His employers are a mass-mailing company for Democrat candidates.
And Pedro Picasso's no ordinary primitive; he's a few tens of IQ points below the average IQ of primitives. It's like having an unhousebroken retarded kid running around a nice clean house.
But his recent wondering about work camps made up for his lack of presence during the rest of the year; a classic case of Pedro Picasso's rampant paranoia.

Your thread today Frank reminds me to nominate the dude (Stinky) for the Broken Elbow.
Having been denied DOTY so many times and seeing it slip from his withered grasp again this year has left him constantly fussing to the admins at the DUmp about his treatment in the cesspool.

I forgot all about the sparkling husband dude, how much he's always whining.
I guess I got enured to it, used to it, because s-o-o-o-o many primitives whine.
Okay, the sparkling husband dude's on the ballot for the broken elbow.

I have to make this nomination before I forget to; in past years, I've meant to, but forgot.
The anti-gun-nut the iverglas primitive for top primitive.
The iverglas primitive, allegedly an attorney in Canada, hangs around the firearms forum on Skins's island.
For the record, franksolich does not own a firearm, wouldn't know how to use a firearm if it came with instructions.
On the other hand, franksolich is a stalwart defender of the Second Amendment. Probably even more fiercely so than even many who own, and use, firearms (because the issue's much bigger than just guns, and franksolich looks at the big picture, not the little picture).
But this nomination has nothing to do with the iverglas primitive's anti-gun-nuttery.
It has to do with the iverglas primitive being a constant trouble-maker in a forum on Skins's island where she really doesn't belong. She hangs around there only, simply, purely, to irritate the gun-owning primitives, no other reason.
She just wants to be a bitch, and shit her bitchery somewhere.
I've used before the example of if there were a fishing forum here on conservativecave.
franksolich doesn't care for fishing, wouldn't waste a minute of his time fishing.
HOWEVER, a great many people get a great deal of fulfillment and happiness out of fishing, and so more power to those who like fishing.
Just because franksolich doesn't like fishing doesn't mean it's wrong or stupid or a waste of time.
For franksolich it would be, but for those who like it, it most emphatically isn't.
Now, if there were a fishing forum here, and franksolich habituated it just to cause trouble and disruption, as the iverglas primitive does in the firearms forum on Skins's island, franksolich should be banned without further ado. Hell, I'd even be the one to ban myself, if I dared be rude and bad-mannered like the wretched miserable bitch the iverglas primitive.
-
I want to nominate Tavener (spelling?), but I'm not sure for what. I missed these when I first came here some this is new ;)
I guess it'll have to be for doty.
-
Is it considered kosher to nominate a primitive who probably isn't a primitive, but mocks them right under their noses? I know Adbot has been nominated and ended up in the Top 20 in the past, but I wanted to check before nominating a real living, breathing "primitive".
-
Your nominations duly noted, sir, but nadin's not eligible for the newbie award, having been around Skins's island before 2011, and a few times before November 2010, her campfires were featured here. Of course, since November 2010, she's pretty much dominated the DUmpster, for better or for worse.
I'm seriously considering voting for the sparkling husband primitive this year; I didn't last year, because the sparkling husband dude by then had developed this most annoying habit where he was respectful of other members here, but always cursorily dismissed franksolich with a wave of the hand.
The sparkling husband primitive's prejudiced against deaf people; doesn't like them, thinks we should stay in our place, mute and unheard.
I'm nominating my fellow Nebraskan, Omaha's Ed Norton, Omaha Steve, for top primitive.
Many here see Omaha's Ed Norton as a blue-collar union worker, or a candidate for the city council in Bellevue, Nebraska, or as being 1/64th derived from Native American blood (overlooking the 63/64th part of him that's Polish or Irish), or as a freeloader wanting other people to give him things, or as a rabid promoter of socialism, or as a fan of the Green Bay Packers, or as a [Star] Trekkie.
Omaha Steve and franksolich are Nebraskans, and Nebraska being a pretty small state, we sort of kind of in a vague way know of each other in real life.
Omaha's Ed Norton is, if nothing else, a con man, a scammer, looking for the easy buck.
One noticed this right away in his breathless announcement he was running for city council in Bellevue, one of the reddest cities in Nebraska; about the first thing he mentioned was that he was settling up an account to accept campaign donations. Nothing about what he planned to do, if elected, for the good people of his city, only about that he'd be accepting campaign donations.
I know what was running through my fellow Nebraskan's mind--he'd take all this cash given him by the primitives, consult a national schedule of Star Trek conventions, register for those located in blue cities where there might be some Democrat event going on about the same time, and voila! he and Marta would get to hang around with Trekkies, even buying some stuff. All on other people's dimes.
Never wants to pay his own way through life, Omaha Steve.
Nadin and Omaha Steve for top primitives, although I strongly believe that Nadin is a mole (and I have an even stronger suspicion that it is a poster from here).
I will probably vote for Omaha Steve, and with the election season about to heat up for him I see him being a top contender for 2012 also.

Wait a minute -- who is the vermont poster who lost her job because she complained about wealthy customers who are always late? She definitely needs to be recognized for something, and that something should be the award that brought the most attention to the DU.
That was a delicious story for the ages. I will remember that will a chuckle for many years to come.

Going to have to echo what Jake said. That was a very small nice saga in the life of keeping track of these squirrel turds. Quite humorous, and I did indeed pay attention to that bouncy.

That was cali, the one with the overpriced frou-frou restaurant.

Is it considered kosher to nominate a primitive who probably isn't a primitive, but mocks them right under their noses? I know Adbot has been nominated and ended up in the Top 20 in the past, but I wanted to check before nominating a real living, breathing "primitive".
It has to be someone who's registered (or was registered, but was mausoleumed) on Skins's island.
As long as it's registered, or was once registered, its entityship is no issue.
Someone over at our old home wanted to nominate someone a member of our old home, but nope.
-
OK, in that case, then I'd like to nominate progressiveinaction for the DOTY list.
Progressiveinaction, if not a mole, has a way of mocking and tweaking the other primitives just enough to avoid a granite pizza. Last I checked they still don't have the pizza. :-)
-
Willie:
NOT Nadin. This winner should be one that has spent several years in the making. I see Nadin as a one hit wonder. For me, the Willie should go to Redstone, posthumously.
Newbie:
MiddleFingerMom- His shinning moment came when he made a joke about fags and got encapsulated in granite.
Prolific poster. Dominates the lounge.
Broken Elbow:
Pam Dawson. AKA Greenbriar. AKA Demjeepten.
She has cancer, you know. The name may change but she is easy to track as her persistent whining gives her away.
She has so many ailments that she should will her body to science.
Golden Bong:
It was a toss up between Wiley50, with his pot cures cancer or 11Bravo, with his continual and delusional self characterization of himself being a member of the 101st Airborne during the "Hamburger hill" conflict.
I know it's a long shot but I'm going with Wiley50. His bouncy is from Jan of this year. Plenty of bouncies between then and now. Big disadvantage.
It's still worthy of consideration.

I've Been Missing for 6 months third try at Cure
This was my last chance, I had tried twice before.
Liver biopsy in 91 was Stage two, tried but was too busy trying to save my home from foreclosure to incapacitate myself like that
Second try, in 2006 ended with no sleep, food,or drink and dry heaving for 9 days before I hit the Emergency room.
Another Liver Biopsy last summer. Doctor gave me 6-8 years to live without completing treatment
Stage Four they start digging a hole to put you i, as that is all they can do for you.
Third attempt, I told my doctor's I wanted to use pot, even though I don't live in a Med Pot state, they looked the other way.
I MADE IT! I MADE IT! I MADE IT!
never had anything worse than semi-constant mild to sometimes moderate nausea. Big difference from last time.
Baseline (before therapy) viral count was over 12 million of those little virus' in every milliliter of my blood.
2 weeks after starting treatment, viral load blood test came back " NO VIRUS FOUND and every 2 week blood test came back thew same way.
so my treatment has a strong remission so far
5 months from now, if it still comes back, NO VIRUS FOUND
I"M CURED!
PS, anyone got a 1 ton dually with a big engine and a ball hitch that would pull my 28 ft sailboat from Nashville to the California Delta (back Bay between around August 1st or I will arrive there without my home. I'm being evicted because the people who own the land I'm on worry about me wintering in an uninsulated sailboat, when I've got snug electric heat with a gas back up. Oh Well, I have little contact with them anyway and my kids arere out there
My top 10 Dummy of the Year nominee's are a follows:
10- Judi Lynn- LBN post ho & big time Hugo lover.
9- Iverglas- Disbarred Canadian lawyer and anti gunner. Has recently started a new line of attack against pro gunners in the gungeon. Has been running to Skimmer and complaining that the pro gunners are bad mouthing anti gun democrat politicians. Has gotten several banned in the last quarter. See "Ask the Administrator."
8-Sarah Ibarruri- Giving up her cooter to conservatives in exchange for dinner and a movie. She can't understand why they don't like obama but likes the free food and movies too much to end it.
7- SidDithers- Justa cranky old cynic.
6- DainBramaged- Hey! He has me on ignore. Should give him honorable mention.
5- Taverner- Nothing I can say about him that hasn't already been said.
4- Beth. Doug's stupid ex wife. Living with her mother in the sticks in a ancient, cramped and decrepit RV trailer with no wheels has her getting nuttier and nuttier.
A Hispanic wanna be so she can be part of the used/abused class.
3-Stinkythe Clown- For calling me a failed car company.
I love it. :rofl:
2- Horse with no brain- Always a bridesmaid, never a bride.
1- Omaha Ed Norton- He has shown, throughout the year, what it takes to win the top prize. He has displayed true DUmmy character. He hasn't had just one super duper blockbuster hit like some contenders who then fade into obscurity but has had several smash, top notch performances over the entire year.
Good luck all.

14. The high mark of excellence here
I was nominated for a DUmmy.
He wants it bad. :lmao:
So does Nadin. :rotf:
I'll have to rethink my list.
-
Golden Bong - Sarah Imaboobi
Broken Elbow - Straight Story
Top DUmmy - nutcase nadin, by acclamation
-
I don't want nadin, she tries too hard.
-
Here's all my nominations:
DOTY-Nads, Sarah Ibuprofen
Willie-Can I name groups? if so the 911 Forum, the Atheists and the Israel/Palestinian Forum
Broken Elbow-Nads
Golden Bouncy-Sarah Ibuprofen complaining about her boyfriend who's awesome and treats her good and he's a Republican
ETA: I'm having some loyalty issues in making these nominations. I go back and forth on whether I should nominate my fellow paisan Stinky? and should I nominate my fellow Red County NJ resident DainBramaged who BTW chooses to live in the Reddest County in the State.
-
DOTY - I nominate Nadin and The Straight Story. I actually hope TSS gets it. Then, maybe, he can get those sky diving lessons for his ex-wife. :naughty:
Willie - I'll go with Omaha Steve. Being a high profile candidate for political office and a DUmmie will only enhance the chances of the DUmp getting more exposure.
Broken Elbow - ThomWV, he just had life saving surgery. Undergroundpanther, just because.
Golden Bouncy - Sarah Ibuprofin. She is a DUmmie's DUmmie. :mental:
-
That was cali, the one with the overpriced frou-frou restaurant.
Taken care of. See post #47. Cali for Golden Bong/Bouncy
Ah ok, thanks.
I am sorry I don't remember posters' names at all, but I would like to nominate for the broken elbow the chap from the west coast who whines about his classroom (he teaches special needs students). He manages to whine and puff his peacock feathers on his perceived greatness to his "staff" and education as a whole.
He is most deserving of recognition.
It's a shame that Pam checked out so early in the year as she had another record year going. These misfits can't even manage consistency can they?

It's too bad they don't view this as a prompt to completely reevaluate their pathetic lives (i.e. actually get one).
If Nadin is indeed a real person, she is clearly mentally ill. I think she actually believes the words she posts. It is very sad actually.
-
I have to make this nomination before I forget to; in past years, I've meant to, but forgot.
The anti-gun-nut the iverglas primitive for top primitive.
The iverglas primitive, allegedly an attorney in Canada, hangs around the firearms forum on Skins's island.
For the record, franksolich does not own a firearm, wouldn't know how to use a firearm if it came with instructions.
On the other hand, franksolich is a stalwart defender of the Second Amendment. Probably even more fiercely so than even many who own, and use, firearms (because the issue's much bigger than just guns, and franksolich looks at the big picture, not the little picture).
But this nomination has nothing to do with the iverglas primitive's anti-gun-nuttery.
It has to do with the iverglas primitive being a constant trouble-maker in a forum on Skins's island where she really doesn't belong. She hangs around there only, simply, purely, to irritate the gun-owning primitives, no other reason.
She just wants to be a bitch, and shit her bitchery somewhere.
I've used before the example of if there were a fishing forum here on conservativecave.
franksolich doesn't care for fishing, wouldn't waste a minute of his time fishing.
HOWEVER, a great many people get a great deal of fulfillment and happiness out of fishing, and so more power to those who like fishing.
Just because franksolich doesn't like fishing doesn't mean it's wrong or stupid or a waste of time.
For franksolich it would be, but for those who like it, it most emphatically isn't.
Now, if there were a fishing forum here, and franksolich habituated it just to cause trouble and disruption, as the iverglas primitive does in the firearms forum on Skins's island, franksolich should be banned without further ado. Hell, I'd even be the one to ban myself, if I dared be rude and bad-mannered like the wretched miserable bitch the iverglas primitive.
I am going to have to second that one. Has she ever cracked the top 20 before?
She has been the bane of the only sane and reasonable forum over there for years.
As for nadin and pammy I still wonder at times if they are not the same person. But I think pammy would be a nice nominee for the broken elbow award.
-
Willie--Spooked911. The 9/11 chickenwire experiment still brings chuckles all these years later. He also is always there with new explanations, like mini nukes and directed energy weapons.
Golden Bong--UGP. The story where the police are finally going after her abuser. I don't know if it is amusing or sick though.

I believe that I have nominated her every year, save one. Then it was only because I forgot about her.
-
I wonder if nutcase nadin's imaginary chest cold is a half-hearted Broken Elbow campaign.
-
For the Willie, I'll nominate DUmmy cali and DUmmy Raven.
I'm not sure it's the right category, but they deserve some recognition for wallduding themselves out of their jobs in this terrible 0conomy.
And they deserve gratitude for all the laughs they gave us in doing it.

I'm sure you mean the snoutport primitive, who's been nominated for the newbie too.
He's on the ballot.
On the ballot, I guess I'll give a two-sentence or so description of each candidate.
-
Willie:
NOT Nadin. This winner should be one that has spent several years in the making. I see Nadin as a one hit wonder. For me, the Willie should go to Redstone, posthumously.
As usual, Tucker, you've come in with a most-excellent slate.
There's an argument over at our old home because I nominated the late red round one for the Willie, as if it's indecent to nominate someone no longer in this time and place.
I beg to differ, and remember I'm guided by a strict Catholic conscience almost medieval in nature.
Once a person leaves this time and place, that person's no longer affected by what others say of him; even the most savage mockery and ridicule can do him no harm. The person's beyond hurt. When franksolich passes from this vale of tears--which I certainly hope isn't for a very long time yet--the last thing I'll be worrying about is what anyone still here (decent and civilized people, and primitives) says about franksolich.
So I think the deceased are just as fair game as the living.
That being said, the conscience dictates that if such a person won an award, it would be written with kindness and sensitivity. I have no idea at the moment what I'd write about the late red round one, but I do know if I had to write an award for the late Chief S itting Bull, it'd be something his widow would print out, laminate, and use as a page-marker in her Bible to solace and comfort her in her sorrow.
Broken Elbow:
Pam Dawson. AKA Greenbriar. AKA Demjeepten.
She has cancer, you know. The name may change but she is easy to track as her persistent whining gives her away.
She has so many ailments that she should will her body to science.
YOu know, it's been only two years since greenbriar was the surprise winner of Top DUmmie, and damn, I'd forgotten all about her.
Golden Bong:
It was a toss up between Wiley50, with his pot cures cancer or 11Bravo, with his continual and delusional self characterization of himself being a member of the 101st Airborne during the "Hamburger hill" conflict.

Good choice, great choice.
My top 10 Dummy of the Year nominee's are a follows:
10- Judi Lynn- LBN post ho & big time Hugo lover.
9- Iverglas- Disbarred Canadian lawyer and anti gunner. Has recently started a new line of attack against pro gunners in the gungeon.

7- SidDithers- Justa cranky old cynic.
6- DainBramaged- Hey! He has me on ignore. Should give him honorable mention.
I had the brain-damaged primitive on my list, in case anyone forgot to nominate him.
I'm sure that grouchy old Don, the NNNHL0I primitive, is sweating bullets, because he hasn't been nominated yet, but I long ago guaranteed he'd be nominated. franksolich is the one who closes out the nomination thread (this coming Saturday, late evening), during which time I try to fill in omissions, and Don can stop worrying.
He's going to be nominated. It's guaranteed. It's a sure thing.
5- Taverner- Nothing I can say about him that hasn't already been said.
4- Beth. Doug's stupid ex wife. Living with her mother in the sticks in a ancient, cramped and decrepit RV trailer with no wheels has her getting nuttier and nuttier.
A Hispanic wanna be so she can be part of the used/abused class.
I wondered if Doug's stupid ex-wife was going to be nominated, or if I was going to have to do it, at the end. She's been nominated for the Willie, but this is the first nomination for her, for top primitive.
3-Stinky the Clown- For calling me a failed car company.
I love it. :rofl:
2- Horse with no brain- Always a bridesmaid, never a bride.
You know, sir, if the sparkling husband dude wins an award, I don't think he's going to rate as good a write-up as he did last year, when he came in #02 Top DUmmie. I rate that particular award, personally, as the best award I've ever written and bestowed, but got no gratitude, no gratitude at all, from the sparkling husband dude.
A literary masterpiece he got, nothing but his snide name-calling I got.
And it's w-a-a-a-a-y long past time Ms. Ed, the unappellated eohippus got recognition.
1- Omaha Ed Norton- He has shown, throughout the year, what it takes to win the top prize. He has displayed true DUmmy character. He hasn't had just one super duper blockbuster hit like some contenders who then fade into obscurity but has had several smash, top notch performances over the entire year.
^^^^^
-
Golden Bong - Sarah Imaboobi
Broken Elbow - Straight Story
Top DUmmy - nutcase nadin, by acclamation
Damn.
I'd forgotten all about the straight story primitive, there's been so many whining primitives.
My first recollection of the straight story primitive was that Christmas he took the family to New York City for a trip, and was astounded at how much things cost there.....and then proceeded to ask for money from the other primitives to pay off his credit card bills from that excursion. That was, probably, 2004.
As for the #01 Top DUmmie of 2011, I'm going to be posting a poll soon; watch for it.
-
Here's all my nominations:
Willie-Can I name groups? if so the 911 Forum, the Atheists and the Israel/Palestinian Forum
Yes, you may; those groups are now on the ballot.
I'm having some loyalty issues in making these nominations. I go back and forth on whether I should nominate my fellow paisan Stinky? and should I nominate my fellow Red County NJ resident DainBramaged who BTW chooses to live in the Reddest County in the State.
If it helps any, those two have already been nominated for top primitive, and are on the ballot.
Also, the sparkling husband dude's been nominated for one of the special awards, but I forget which one.
-
I am going to have to second that one. Has she ever cracked the top 20 before?
She has been the bane of the only sane and reasonable forum over there for years.
I'm not finding the iverglas primitive on the list of past top DUmmies, not even near the bottom. It's only my opinion, but I think the iverglas primitive is way overdue for recognition.
-
^ Ohhh, another poll. Can't wait! :hyper:
8-Sarah Ibarruri- Giving up her cooter to conservatives in exchange for dinner and a movie. She can't understand why they don't like obama but likes the free food and movies too much to end it.
Surely you could have wrote down a better reason. After all, this reason alone does not make Slutty Sarah exclusively special. :-)

This year's awards for the top primitives presents a situation we haven't encountered before.
I'm asking this question assuming what I think's going to happen, happens.
If what I think's going to happen doesn't happen, then it's unimportant; I'll just do things the way they've always been done.
For the first time in the history of the Top DUmmies, before before nominations are finished, even before a single vote is counted, it's pretty obvious who the winner of the top prize is going to be.
In past years, everyone was always on the edge of their seats, anxious about the eventual winner.
And that tension, that excitement, is what makes New Year's Eve one of the busiest days of the year, here on conservativecave.
But if everybody's already reasonably speculated the outcome, that excitement's not there.
Now, the awards are given in this way, usually:
24 December -- the Top DUmmies #11-20 in one single award
25 December -- the newbie
25 December -- the broken elbow
25 December -- the Willie
26 December -- #10 Top DUmmie
26 December -- #09 Top DUmmie
27 December -- #08 Top Dummie
27 December -- #07 Top Dummie
28 December -- #06 Top DUmmie
28 December -- #05 Top DUmmie
29 December -- #04 Top DUmmie
29 December -- #03 Top DUmmie
30 December -- #02 Top Dummie
31 December -- Top DUmmie of 2011
Because there's no suspense, no suspense at all, for New Year's Eve this year (if what I think is going to happen, happens), I'd like to do something a little bit different, to give some excitement to the race.
I'd like to change the awardment to something like this:
29 December -- #04 Top DUmmie
29 December -- Top DUmmie of 2011
30 December -- #03 Top DUmmie
31 December -- #02 Top DUmmie
I think there'd be much more anticipation, much more excitement, about the runners-up.
But I dunno; franksolich's mind doesn't work the same way everybody else's does.
If anyone's worried that this might take away from the honor of being Top DUmmie, it's already happened.
Last year, for example, the top prizes were awarded in the regular ascending order, but at least in my own opinion, the award for #02 Top DUmmie far outshone the award for the Top DUmmie of 2010. I think I did an exceptionally excellent job on treatment of the sparkling husband dude, but then flopped when giving out the top award to Anne.
(Of course, the weather was a factor there; on December 31, 2010, I was out most of the day helping the neighbor bring in cattle from a raging blizzard. Coming back home, I wrote the award for the miserable old bitch still snow-covered, wet, and cold, and it probably showed.)
For the record, in the past, Mr. Wiggum has "fed" me the winners one-at-a-time. I wrote each award before learning the identity of the next winner (meaning that I generally only knew of a particular winner about an hour before everybody else). This year, I might have Mr. Wiggum give me the whole slate once he's done counting the votes. I dunno. We'll see.
-
I'm a traditionalist, Coach. Do it the old way. If one assumes that the DOTY is wrapped up, one won't see the amount of "late surges" coming from the primitives. Those are always entertaining. :whistling:
-
I prefer to start out the New Year with the DOTY, rather than have it announced on my birthday.
I can wait the additional 2 days.
-

Well, you see my concern here, sir, it's for conservativecave as a whole.
The awardment of the Top DUmmie gives us one of our top days of the year, in "traffic."
And that's because of the suspense involved, who's going to win?
But this year it doesn't appear there'll be any suspense.
-
^ Ohhh, another poll. Can't wait! :hyper:
Surely you could have wrote down a better reason. After all, this reason alone does not make Slutty Sarah exclusively special. :-)
Rev, that would be true if she were screwing DUmmy men. She's being done by a conservative guy, who is just probably trying to build up experience in kinky sex practices so that he can brag about having done them on her, to a real conservative woman in the future.
-
My own personal opinion, but I would say do the Top Dummie on Dec 29th at the earliest time. That way, we look forward to that after #11-20, but there is still #2, #3, and #4 to get to later in the day. As if 2, 3, and 4 were the Top 3. I don't know, it's just an idea for you guys to mull around.
To more clearly illustrate it, this is how you proposed to do it, sir:
29 December -- #04 Top DUmmie
29 December -- Top DUmmie of 2011
30 December -- #03 Top DUmmie
31 December -- #02 Top DUmmie
This is my proposal after #11-20:
29 December -- Top DUmmie of 2011
29 December -- #04 Top DUmmie-later as if #3
30 December -- #03 Top DUmmie-#2
31 December -- #02 Top DUmmie-#1
Like I said...just an idea.
-
I prefer to start out the New Year with the DOTY, rather than have it announced on my birthday.

This is just an idea, it's not even set in wet concrete.
Of course, Mr. Wiggum and franksolich reserve the right to give out the awards in the order we think most appropriate, but it's not a big issue with either of us.
And this is your contest; members who nominate and vote. Mr. Wiggum and I are just the servants here, doing our own labors for the common good of humanity.
My concern is that of "traffic;" if everybody already knows who the winner of the top prize is, traffic would suffer on what's traditionally been one of the busiest days of the year on conservativecave.
It is possible that the Taverner primitive's going to do something especially spectacular that catapults him in front of the current front-runner, in which case all bets are off. But the Taverner primitive's running out of time; he's got only until 11:59 p.m. central time this coming Saturday, to pull something off.
(And I surely hope the Taverner primitive's reading this.)
-
Maybe HE should get an award then for Worst Sexual Practices EVER! :lmao:
-
^ Ohhh, another poll. Can't wait! :hyper:

Most of my replies in any given thread and all of my titles to OP's are written for the benefit of lurking DUmmies.
I want to make them feel warm and fuzzy.

That's excellent strategy, and I encourage people to do it as much as possible.
Forever engraved in this mind is a headline for a thread written by GOBUCKS.
The primitives were huddled around a campfire discussing wind energy, and GOBUCKS brought it over here.
But rather than saying "DUmmies discuss wind energy," which would've drawn only little attention, if any--I mean, how many people are agog and excited about wind energy?--GOBUCKS wrote "DUmmies discuss wind energy, Las Vegas Lardass weighs in."
Now, that was a master-stroke of sheer creative genius.
An audience may not be interested in wind energy, but it's highly likely they're going to be fascinated by a quarter-tonner's take on the subject.
Sheer genius.
-
NOT Nadin. This winner should be one that has spent several years in the making. I see Nadin as a one hit wonder.
Whoa there! Nadin is many things, in fact she is most things, but a newcomer she's not.
You should have noticed, in the hopeless drunkard Pitt's hilarious bootheel cat rant, nutcase nadin was right there offering to help Pitt and the sensitive lad beat coach into a pulp.
That makes her one of the DUmp's most senior lunatics.

I know she's not new. I liken her to a baseball player who has a career batting avg. of .200. One year he puts it all together and hits a .300 avg for one single solitary season, then back to .200 for the remainder of his career.
Besides. If Nadin wins, she should share the award with Google.
2009- Pam Dawson
2010- Anne Pritchett
2011- Nadin and Google

That's one of the problems one encounters when considering candidates for top primitives of the year.
Does one consider them simply on the basis that a particular primitive's been especially remarkable only the past year?
Well, yeah, that's good criteria, a good standard to use.
But what about primitives who over the years, over a long period of time while not being particularly flashy or flamboyant, but who were of high quality?
Your own nomination of Chief S itting Bull for the Willie is a good example.
Redstone did a few things the years past that warranted consideration for top primitive, but he wasn't consistently loud, consistently flashy, consistently dominating--say, as compared with the greenbriar primitive in 2009--and so he lost out to better-publicized, flashier, primitives.
This year, my own votes are going to be based upon both criteria, about half-and-half; I'll be voting for primitives who were smash hits this past year, 2011, and at the same time I'll be voting for other primitives who weren't flashy this past year, but whose conduct over a long period of time warrants their place in the sun.

Well, yeah, that's good criteria, a good standard to use.
But what about primitives who over the years, over a long period of time while not being particularly flashy or flamboyant, but who were of high quality?
Your own nomination of Chief S itting Bull for the Willie is a good example.
Redstone did a few things the years past that warranted consideration for top primitive, but he wasn't consistently loud, consistently flashy, consistently dominating--say, as compared with the greenbriar primitive in 2009--and so he lost out to better-publicized, flashier, primitives.
This year, my own votes are going to be based upon both criteria, about half-and-half; I'll be voting for primitives who were smash hits this past year, 2011, and at the same time I'll be voting for other primitives who weren't flashy this past year, but whose conduct over a long period of time warrants their place in the sun.
You have a point.
Ideally, a potential winner should work up the charts in successive years. Finishing 10th three years ago, 7th two years ago and 2nd last year. You would then become the odd on favorite to win it all this year.
Then again I might favor that way because I just don't care for Nadin and am looking for a way to disallow her contributions.
-
.....I just don't care for Nadin and am looking for a way to disallow her contributions.
Well, it'd be nice if the Taverner primitive were reading this, and did something really stupid.
The Taverner primitive's probably far behind in the polls when compared with nadin, but he's the primitive with the best chance to leap-frog over her. It'd depend upon how stupid whatever it is the Taverner primitive does, but trust me, if the Taverner primitive did something really stupid, he'd have at least a 1-in-2 chance of overtaking her these final days.
As far as I can discern, the sparkling husband dude is the only other primitive who could possibly surge into the first place, but he'd have to do something even more remarkable, more stupid, than what the Taverner primitive does; I'd rate the sparkling husband dude's chances as 1-in-100, if he could do that.
I dunno what it'd take--maybe if the sparkling husband dude sent his business associates Louie the Orthopaedic Surgeon, Alphonse the Dentist, and Manny the Cobbler (specializing in concrete footwear, of course) to the corporate offices of Skins's island to threaten my fellow alum, that might do it.
-
I'll be posting the current list of nominations, updated from last time, both here and at our old home sometime Wednesday evening, when the final few days for nominations start winding down.
I was busy today--my head hurts as much as my body--and I'll be busy for three more days yet.
But Wednesday night-Thursday-Friday-Saturday of this week should be enough time for those examining the list to make further nominations, and of course I'll fill in the omissions when locking this thread Saturday night.
And then the ballot will come out circa suppertime next Sunday, December 4, accompanied with a brief description of each primitive on the ballot.`

This morning, before I head out, I'm nominating cbayer the thread-slayer for top primitive of 2011.
Really, one's awed by how much the Bayer aspirin primitive's always on the ball, 24/7/365, ready to douse campfires hardly seconds after they've been lit.
And my suggestion to the Bayer aspirin primitive is that she or he, whatever, start following around any primitive that's been mentioned on this nomination thread, to shut things down the minute a nominated primitive violates one of Skins's best-known and most-easily-obeyed rules.
My fellow alum's magnanimous enough to give the primitives a place to romp and play; his asking that we not be mentioned doesn't seem an onerous burden to bear.

I don't believe the Bayer-aspirin primitive will need any encouragement in that department. If it appears to breathe any life at all, it will be killed in its infancy.
-
I haven't quite made my mind up on everything yet but I'm nominating Nads for the Willie. If anyone represents DU and has made them infamous across the Internets it's her. She's the perfect know nothing know-it-all, done-it-all everyDUmmie with a perfect mix of arrogance and stupidity.
Cindie
-
For me the Golden Bong Award nominee is Firebrand Gary. No one occupies the express lane while whipping out his cell phone and googling corporate profits like him! Then, as a good DUmmie should, he gives his very best stump speech in support of the working man. To ravenous, slathering applause, of course.

Excuse me, but would it be OK to make a speech to push my personal favorite candidate?
If so please take this post as evidence of why this woman deserves the DOTY:

1. Marco Rubio is getting rich pretending he was born in Cuba
Edited on Sun Nov-27-11 04:09 PM by Sarah Ibarruri
He's as sleezy as his Repuke politics. Meanwhile, the Miami Cuban enclave will vote for anyone. They don't bother to read about issues or anything at all. You just mention the word, 'Cuba' and 'freedom' and they vote for you, even if you stand against their other interests, because they literally know nothing at all in Miami. Ignorance is rampant there. I know. I lived there for many years and it was embarrassing.
When has Marco Rubio ever said he was born in Cuba? He was born in Miami to Cuban immigrant Parents.

3. EXACTLY! Being a Latino and being Repuke, is incredibly stupid.
It makes no sense at all to be Repuke being Latino. None.
BTW, the proper term according to Hispanic Trends, the majority prefer use of the word Hispanic as opposed to Latino.

I have given several mentions to CC's DOTY contest on my latest DUFU, DUmmie FUnnies 11-28-11 ("Occupy San Diego Flash Mob Invades Wal-Mart") (http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2813147/posts), in the DUFU itself and in Post 10 (http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2813147/posts?page=10#10):

franksolich of Conservative Cave has told me to tell you all, you DUFU Pingees, that you too are eligible to nominate for the Top DUmmies of 2011, and there are several different awards to be given out:
Official Nomination Thread for the Top DUmmies of 2011
You can go to Conservative Cave's "The DUmpster" to make your nominations and comments, or you can do that here, only if you do that here, it will be up to franksolich or Ballygrl or another Cave-dweller to relay that over to the Cave. You've got till the end of this Saturday, December 3, to make your nominations.

That's one of the uses of the nomination thread, to "campaign" for one's favorites.
There's a little bit of that that goes on in the voting thread, but by then it's usually too late.
Campaign away.

At this late date, overtaking eleven months of sheer, jaw-dropping nadinesque lunacy would require something like an armed meta standoff with the police, or, preferably, a video suicide.
I agree that Taverner is capable of either, but as a nodding intravenous drug addict it's unlikely he has the energy.

I hope Fox News carries the story and highlights his connection to DU.
Yes, and I wish the Taverner primitive would hurry up.
He's got until only late Saturday evening; time's wasting away.

As I don't visit CU very much, does anyone know their leanings to the DOTY?
Much to my displeasure, it's pretty obvious as to who is running away with it here.

Ralph Wiggum was pretty reliable about posting DOTY threads at CU. I haven't seen him around, though.

Looks like the sub atomic primitive is looking for the pizza. Attempting to go out in a flame of glory?

I think they're leaning the same way the DUmpster is, but am not sure.
I'm really surprised; there doesn't seem that much familiarity with primitives in "the Best/Worst of DU" as there is here in the DUmpster.

I had some unexpected free time this evening, so this update:
Since most of my nominees have already been nominated, I would like to add two names to the list for "The Willie": Drug addict DUmbass Taverner since he is (in my opinion) everything a DUmbass strives to be (petulant, hateful, violent, habitual drug user, chronically unemployed, lazy, developmentally stunted, stoopid, and unable to make it on his own); DUmbass uber-queer Sub Atomic for her/his/its mimicking of the Erinyes on the walls of Dis any time anyone dares speak the truth about faggotry and its corrosiveness effects on civilized society.
These two mouth-breathers (and in at least one case a rope sucker) are the perfect images of what dickhead Dave Allen's Island of Misfit ****ups really represent.
-
He wants it badly, so I'll nominate the obnoxious queer DUmmy Sub Atomic for the newbie award. I haven't scanned all the nominations, so maybe he's already in there.
I don't much enjoy the queer threads, so maybe he's not a newbie, and I've just overlooked him.
-
I was poking around the archives for something I vaguely remember but can't find (grrrr) and found some interesting threads. So while you're considering your choices, here's some blasts from the past (year).
Sonoman (http://www.conservativecave.com/index.php/topic,60156.0.html) discusses his illegal attempts to remain invisible. He was widely believed to be a TominTib sock.
Cali (http://www.conservativecave.com/index.php/topic,62285.0.html) walldudes herself from her restaurant job.
Sarah Ibarruri (http://www.conservativecave.com/index.php/topic,61982.0.html) and her freeper boyfriend.
Twix Voy (http://www.conservativecave.com/index.php/topic,60732.0.html) and a grocery store bouncy that goes horribly wrong at the DUmp.
Grasswire (http://www.conservativecave.com/index.php/topic,60698.0.html) sells pies to poor people and teachers get them for free.
Snoutport (http://www.conservativecave.com/index.php/topic,59866.0.html) get beaten by one of his students.
I'm still considering most of my nominations, but I have decided to nominate PCIntern for the Golden Bong for his many dental bouncies. Well, back to searching the archives.
-

I'd like to nominate Larry R. Burks to the Top 20 list. Larry's response to spooked911's thread Carl rowed over here today jogged my memory on this primitive. I don't really know what to say about Larry, other than he is probably the most batshit person (in my opinion) at the Dump:

I need to toss another nomination for the Willie to lonestarnot of the 1000's of bodies in Texas trees.. She's been surging lately obviously vying for one of the titles. Willie fits her best; she's one of the looniest of loons.
-
WILLIE - Cali for being stupid enough to post her place of employment and dissing the patrons of said establishment. Her getting herself fired was the epitome of stupidity that reigns at the DUmp.
BROKEN ELBOW- Bobbolink for constantly reminding us she was homeless and living in her car
GOLDEN BONG - Twix Voy for the classic grocery store bouncy. Classic, I tell you. The "So's" flowed throughout the story with an elegance rarely seen at the DUmp.
NEWBIE - I would nominate my mole but I'm not done with it yet.
-
I may add as the week goes on until I reach my 10.
First and foremost, Top Dummie is: Taverner. Hapless, helpless, idiotic, drug-addled, ridiculous. Can't get or keep a job. Thinks that Communism will solve all his particular problems, if only the rest of the country would go along with him. All-around DUmbass. Taverner, you've been my boy all year long; thanks for everything.
Others in no order:
DainBramaged. He is a 50-something male specimen who acts like a nine-year old girl. Famously refers to dogs as "goggies."
Sarah Ibarruri. A mean, nasty bitch. Has an annoying habit of weaving in "Repukes" in any sentence she forms.
Grasswire, for the simple entertainment she provided in coming up against the barriers to entry in the business world. Her sheer stupidity in overlooking the cold hard facts of insurance, health regulations, and the labyrinthine process of starting up any kind of entity. Plus, the pie shown in the newspaper picture was laughably bad. The publicly-stated plan of giving pies away for free to government employees was a classic. She didn't even see anything fishy about that.
Kentuck. A simple man, he embodies that mouth-breathing DUmbness best; so I choose him to represent .
Newbies: Snoutport for his hilarious, implausible stories. Especially the injured bird, who was taken away on a stretcher by his bird-friends for R&R and healing.
White Wolf to represent the Commies over there. He's such a bastard prick; and I love it when someone smacks him around.
Most Whiney/Broken Elbow: Sub-Atomic and Horse with No Name. Horse constantly complains; there isn't a positive post within her.
Bouncies: Rsmith, as always. He creates bouncies that inadvertently make him look like the world's biggest asshole. His compliant wife always tags along.
These are extraneous:
Honorable Mention goes to Stinky, only because I named one of my Hearts players after him (Taverner & DB are the others). I enjoy handing off the Queen of Spades to Stinky, imagining his face reddening and his BP soaring.

This isn't a nomination yet, because I can't recall the exact primitive name. demotex perhaps?
The primitive, allegedly a former military man, who couldn't identify aircraft and firearms correctly according to the experts here, who followed forest fires, and who whined to Skins after he mentioned us on Skins's island after we'd gotten dubious of his credentials, and his campfire got doused.

Uh huh.
It's too bad about the defrocked warped primitive, who one year reached top DUmmie number 9, when over the years surely she's deserved to attain at least top DUmmie number 5 or 4.
She's about as miserable and wretched an old bitch as Anne was last year, but I always gave the defrocked warped primitive a little less grief, because while Anne was born a femme with some messed-up insides, the defrocked warped primitive was born a femme with her father's, and not her mother's, looks and build.
It can't be fun going through life with a refrigerator-shaped physique, and some facial hairs.
-
I'm truly disappointed.
The Taverner primitive's got only 36 hours--not much more time--to do something spectacular, so as to overtake what seems to be the current front-runner for Top DUmmie of 2011.
If Omaha Steve can make a strong surge (it's not enough, as my fellow Nebraska was further behind, but it was quite a strong surge), surely the Taverner primitive is up to the task too.

You know, because the ballot's a mile long, I'll do this in sections that are digestable.
If one has to read a mile of names, one overlooks some.
So anyway, here are the current nominations for the golden bong award, the primitive who told the best bouncy, or bouncies, of 2011:

Poor wiley50. Always a bridesmaid, never a bride.

Yeah.
The freeloading bum the wily primitive was always one of my favorites, sitting there in the mountains and forests of Tennessee building an ark he was going to float out to sea.
But as Tucker pointed out earlier in this thread, he appears to have evaporated sometime earlier in this year, when he was planning on moving to California to live off one of his sons--the wily primitive left a long trail of infants circa the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s, their mothers having to raise them while the wily primitive avoided the authorities.

Me too.
Even though I didn't nominate him/her/?, its got my vote.

I want to take this opportunity to encourage everybody to remember my Golden Bong horse "The Bitter Vermontese" primitive, Cali and her wallduding episode/broken leg sagas. We're in this race together!
This reminder is paid for by the Friends of Cali for Golden Bong Award Committee.

If it's Pam, I think it's "demtenjeep".

I'd like to add Luminous Animal to the DOTY list. I wish we had a golden bitch slap award. If we did, I would nominate MADem for leaving a permanent hand print on LA's face in the thread entitled Happy Meal Ban: McDonald's Outsmarts San Francisco.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=439x2401053
I screencapped it in all its glory the other night, just in case MADem's big FU to Luminous Animal went down the memory hole.
_______________________________________________
ETA: looks like some of the responses were deleted. I'll post the screen shots when I have a moment.

I just read some of that, Chitown. First of all, how can this whole group stand each other enough to form an internet board? Secondly, JackRiddler is an asshole of the first degree.
We've seen Luminous Animal before, she's a megamoonbat who only wants to say "YES! YES! YES!" to her kid. Also let the kid hang around naked San Francisco guys.
My name is Karin and I approve this nomination.

He may not be the most prolific, nor the most profoung, whiner in all DUmmiehood, but boy, can he slip his whines in, in between his bragging about what nice things he can (and sometimes can't) afford!

Okay now, here are the current nominations for the newbie award, given a primitive who's never ever been in the top twenty before, any year:

Yeah, I messed up.

I did.
I got the order wrong. But in my own defense, getting something wrong that Pam wrote is to be expected. After all, she's a past DOTY winner. One doesn't achieve that lofty position without confusing people.

Okay, these are the current nominations for the Willie, given the primitive who best exemplifies and publicizes Skins's island for all the world to see:

we dont spend much at all so the corporations aren't getting rich off of us. i dont wave anything in front of anyones face because i see the purity in atheist as much as i do the muslim as much as the jew or the wiccan or the christian. christmas is as much the celebration and embracing of winter solstice. christmas, .... is time with family. and time with family is ALWAYS and i mean always GOOD for me.
christmas is fun

Rambling and disjointed,stilted as if English was a 5th language (winks at nadin) with typical primitive random capitalization and punctuation.
A complete idiot and truly representative of the island.

Seabeyond has been beyond my comprehension from Day One. ****in' looney tunes. Sadly, she's not even the worst example of idiocy at the DUmp. So many idiots, so few ballot spaces. :bawl:

Heck, Boudicca, we could have a month long Top DUmmie Award Ceremony if we wanted to give ALL credit where it is do. :rotf:
In fact, we should do that some time. On a big anniversary or something. Dunno how many years this has been going, (since '05 if memory of what Frank said serves) but we could do it in 2015 if everyone is up to it. 10 year Anniversary.
EX: December two thousand fifteen. All DUmmie all the time! BE THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Larry is definitely on my list. Crazy ****er.

I wonder if nutcase nadin's imaginary chest cold is a half-hearted Broken Elbow campaign.
You will note, sir, that no one, not one single DUmmie, sympatized with her or wished her to get well soon.
I think they all want Nads to die!

The primitives don't care about anybody but them own selves.
This was shown when Chief S itting Bull unexpectedly died.
Now, the bird-smacking stoned red-face primitive had been a member of Skins's island for about eight years, during which time he labored mightily for the primitives. He didn't copy-and-paste junk, he didn't beg for money. He wrote all of his own stuff to illuminate and entertain the primitives, taking the time and trouble to carefully craft his posts.
Redstone was dedicated to Skins's island, and to the primitives.
But when Chief S itting Bull wafted up to the Great Spirit, there were just two campfires on Skins's island mourning his passing, and short-lived campfires at that.
It's folly, sheer folly, for a primitive to do anything substantial, anything meaningful, on Skins's island.
-
Memo to self: I'll probably eliminate one of the special awards for the Top DUmmies of 2012 next year, and replace it with an award for the primitive most totally an idiot.
I just gone done reading some of the lonestarnut primitive's comments, and was inspired by that.
What a total idiot.
I had put in a late nomination for her in the Willie category, but put her where ever you think is best.

It's also an impossibility.

A late nomination for Newbie base on this tread... http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=439x2417627 is sabrina 1.
She has been in all out campaign mode this week so will give her the small moment of attention she is craving.

I usually just come here to read up on what has gotten the DUmmies undies in a bundle.
Please allow me to nominate Cali for not only DOTY but also for the Bouncy. Her story on earwigs at her former place of employment was comedy gold. How many years has it been since "Walldude" outed himself. If this happened routinely then I would say it would not be worthy of merit, however since it appears to happen so infrequently I have to put my two cents in for Cali, who's heart is surely as cold as a Vermont winter.
-
.....Cali, who's heart is surely as cold as a Vermont winter.
Oh, trust me, sir, the bitter old Vermontese cali primitive's heart makes the North Pole seem like Miami Beach, makes a rock seem as soft as a sponge.
-
Okay, this thread closes shop in about three hours, so if anyone needs to nominate, one had better hurry.
The plans are to keep this nomination thread, even though "locked", at the top of the DUmpster during the voting, which takes place from circa suppertime tomorrow, December 4, until 11:59 p.m. central time Wednesday, December 14. There'll be ten days for voting, and there's different ways for voting, which'll be explained on the Official Voting Thread.

Karin,
I meant to reply to this last night and state that I was having trouble with the screenshots. Dang it! MADem put the smack down on Luminous Animal. The screenshots are so tiny, so it is hard to see. I'm going to see if I can just copy the text. It's worth a peek :).
-
I'm nominating grouchy old Don, the NNNHLOI primitive, for top primitive of 2011, the old cuss.
If there was an award for "most stubborn" primitive, he'd probably win.
The guy thought he had things all figured out back when he was a lad forty years ago; thought he knew how the system worked, thought he could play it right, and most disastrously, thought if he took care of the machine, the machine would take care of him.
Well, here Don is, on the threshhold of old age, about to enter his vulnerable years, and inevitably he's going to lose all, or at least a great deal of it, because the machine isn't going to take care of Don. The machine never intended to take care of Don, but Don didn't see that, Don didn't have that figured out.
The "stubborn" part comes in where while everybody else sees it, Don pig-headedly refuses to open his eyes, refuses to use his God-given judgement, and still believes in the machine, still believes the machine has nothing to do with his current and future woes. He'll go to the abbatoir blaming those damned Republicans of Cook County for short-changing him, for cheating him, for stealing all he has.
With that nomination, I'm closing this thread, with my thanks to all the decent and civilized people who made nominations, and to the primitives of Skins's island who gave us the gifts of their beings as fodder for amusement, entertainment, and anthropological research during 2011.
The Official Voting Thread will be up circa supper-time tomorrow, Sunday.
Oh, and the primitives can kiss franksolich's ass.
