Title: runners-up to the Top DUmmies of 2011
Post by: franksolich on December 24, 2011, 04:21:35 AM
Greetings to all on this, the eve of one of the two most sacred holidays of mankind, and that day in which we begin the countdown to the Top Ten DUmmies of 2011, culminating one week hence with announcement of the main award, Top DUmmie of 2011.

Turnout in voting this year set a new record, although unlike last year, there were hardly any close races.  One might recall that last year, Top DUmmies 03-08 were each separated by a single vote, and the only runaways were for Top DUmmie 02 and the Top DUmmie of 2010.

The 02 Top DUmmie and the Top DUmmie of 2010 had set records, but just as the landslide presidential election of 1980, one of the largest landslides in history, was subsequently overshadowed by the even larger landslide of 1984, well, the generalissimo dude and the Die alte Sau have bit the dust this year, holding such records no longer.

But first, the runners-up to the Top Ten DUmmies of 2011.

20-cbayer (new)
--a long-time moderator on the old Skins’s island, notorious for dousing campfires almost as soon as they’re lit; one’s sure that many shout-outs to the DUmpster here evaporate even before one sees them.
 
19-The Straight Story (04 in 2008)
--the king of sob stories on Skins’s island; never wins, always loses, in life.

18-Mineral Man (19 in 2010)
--quite possibly the eminence grise of Skins’s island, although superficially underrated in his informal power and influence; the wise calm serene elder sage, the John-Lennon-in-old-age lookalike.

 17-William Pitt (02 in 2005; Top DUmmie in 2006; 06 in 2007; 20 in 2008; Willie in 2010)
--yawn.

16-Skinner, EarlG & Elad (Skinner 15 in 2005)
--the Big Three who run Skins’s island.

15-kpete (14 in 2007; 14 in 2008)
--the copy-and-paste queen of Skins’s island, who does so from her Streisandian digs in a gated neighborhood in San Diego; as with many other primitives, part of the 1%.

14-kentuck (12 in 2005; 13 in 2010)
--a strong contender for 02 or 03 or 04 Top DUmmie this year, but blandly and colorlessly faded in the last quarter.

13-Sub Atomic (new)
--an obnoxious professional queer whose time on Skins’s island was short, alas.

12-Proud2BlibKansan (03 in 2008; 19 in 2009; Top DUmmie in 2010)
--destined to be a constant presence in Top DUmmie every year, until she self-immolates in a fiery passion and orgasm of Hate and rage.

11-NNN0LHI (new)
--grouchy old Don, his income and property being voraciously consumed by a corrupt political machine which he figured would take care of him, if he took care of it; he diligently took care of it for thirty years, and alas has yet to figure out it’s not going to take care of him.

Congratulations to the runners-up, which is no small feat, but one hopes at least some of them make it into the top tier for 2012.

next up: on Christmas Day, the four special awards

Congratulations to this year's first award winners ! You have all brought me hours of entertainment...Save for Pitt, who hasn't been really fun to read for at least the last 24 business hours - probably even longer.

Maybe if he moderated the drinking a bit - either drink more before posting to inspire hilarity - or perhaps he has been drinking too much as of late, rendering himself unable to operate a computer.

One wonders about the trend set by Anne.  From #3, to #19, to #1, back to #12.  What's that primitive going to do for next year?

If you recall, I was her campaign manager during 2010, as I'd been disappointed by her very poor showings other times.  I put my heart and soul and considerable sweat into getting her elected top primitive, as I felt very strongly and very passionately that the Die alte Sau was woefully underrated in the sheer intensity of her Hate and rage.

Well, I shoved her to the pinnacle, then got tired of her.

The dysmenopausal Kansas schoolteacher's now back in control of her own destiny now; I've got new campaigns to manage, myself.

I'm not giving anything away, but there's surprises in the order of the top ten, so stay tuned.

Me, I'm still disappointed that three primitives I thought belonged in the top ten weren't even runners-up.

Damn.

Yeah, Coach, I see that--but the point that I'm making is that she'll be right up in the Top 3 next year, if past performances are any indication of future success (which isn't always the case).

That could happen, but I've got to caution lurking primitives who've been top primitives before, that the Redstone Memorial Top DUmmies of 2012 contest will be stiffer this next year than it ever has been, because I expect there's going to be a lot of heretofore unhonored 0bamaite primitives as winners next year.

I think that P2BL will be the runner-up next year.  It'll be the only spot in the Top 3 that she won't have won.

I had four of these in my Top Ten,

Skinner, EarlG, Elad (8)
WilliamPitt (7)
Mineral Man (6)
kentuck (5)

so I'm glad to see they at least made the Top Twenty.

And I hope this means that my other Top Tenners,

Raven (10)
EFerrari (9)
Cyrano (4)
SidDithers (3)
Sarah Iburruri (2)
nadinbrzezinski (1)

all end up in the Top Ten.

Fingers crossed!

Sorry, sir, but you missed on half your remaining selections for the top ten, and the order of the others.

I'm however not giving anything away.

Top primitives #10 and #09 on Monday
Top primitives #08 and #07 on Tuesday
Top primitives #06 and #05 on Wednesday
Top primitives #04 and #03 on Thursday
Top primitive #02 on Friday
Top primitive of 2011 on Saturday, New Year's Eve

I just checked.

I'm happy only with the #04 top primitive and the #03 top primitive, who got voted exactly where I thought they should get voted.

Other than that, I ain't sayin' nuthin'.

I'm just out of sorts because apparently franksolich is out of touch with the People, as shown in who the People thought should be the winners, and who franksolich thought should be the winners.

I must ask, who among the other nineteen were more deserving than the Die alte Sau?

By the way, there's been a run on the now-locked voting thread, the last page, in the DUmping Ground, by lurking primitives, about twenty or so the past several minutes.  I wondered what caught their interest; it looks as if they were checking the schedule for the awards.  Or something.

It was a weak list of candidates last year, though the hobo, UGP, and poor, stupid Beth all had pretty good runs in 2010.

Remember, Beth was describing her eviction and move into the camper, her drug-addled son helping the warden organize his jail, her deadbeat brother moving temporarily into the camper with her, her mother, and her two big dogs, and several nice flashbacks to the Dougzilla days.

The hobo showed up on dozens of threads every day to excoriate the DUmpmonkeys for talking about something other than how to make her happy.

UGP detailed having her tits removed, plans for her addadicktomy operation, and hooking up with a blue-haired queer.

It took a brilliant campaign, and a pliable electorate, for Anne Pritchett to overcome all that.

Last year the DOTY should have been bobbolink, hands down. We wuz robbed. I mean, getting Pitt tombstoned, plus every thread, no matter the subject matter, "You people don't care about the homeless," all from the back of a Buick--Bobo the Hobo deserved DOTY last year.

This year, not so much. Didn't even make my Top Ten.

Nadin is this year's Bobo.

Yes, they were as always counted with accuracy.  I'm an accountant after all.

I don't always agree with the results, but I just count them.  No adjustments are made.  The people speak and I just keep track.

And a big thanks to all of you who took time to vote this year.  It was my pleasure to read all the well thought-out ballots.

As with the Bostonian Drunkard and maybe some other old-timers on the list of the top twenty.

Residual popularity.  She'll probably fade away sooner or later.  I wish the Bostonian Drunkard would.

How dud Anne place so high?

She didn't post twenty original words all year. She became a C&P queen.
She's living in the afterglow of the imaginary brilliance that coach constructed around her last year.

She continues to benefit from an experiment he conducted on how to sway an electorate.

The Omaha weeper would be smashing through local and state politics like a sledgehammer if he'd accepted the similar offered assistance.

Instead, he'll suffer the humiliation of anonymous oblivion.

In a just world, Anne would share it with him, but her DOTY celebrity will endure.
