Second Anniversary Awards

[Mark]

Since y'all like badges and flair and stuff, I have an idea.

The premise is simple.

You post a category suggestion, people post submissions, we all vote on who gets the award.

Example Category:

Member Most Likely To Be Into Bread:

Submissions:

Quagmire
Ants!

I don't particularly care what the categories are, as long as they're relevant to anything that has happened here in the last two years. We could limit it to the last year, but, we didn't do one of these for our first anniversary, so I figured, why the hell not? There are no rules, and even if there were, I can rewrite them. That's how democracy works these days, right?

 

[A Vaguely Ambiguous Username]

Most likely to have a birthday.

I nominate all of us.

 

[Benzine]

All the classic stat ones - most posts, most reacted to, most threads, etc.

I'd like to see ugliest too.

 

[Crystal]

I like it

 

[Benzine]

I think you should force/strongly suggest everyone to submit a category, scrub the 5 worst and keep the rest.

Hahaha suck it Feb 29 losers!

Purging the worst 5 members every year I see.

Most reacted to single post is a good one.

Well shit, that's me out

You're a judge not a contestant.

wtf?! I literally killed GW and I don't get to be reformed? Pfft. Guess I just have to kill GWF, too.

 

[A Vaguely Ambiguous Username]

Worst Amercianism
alu

Hmmm...

 

[Mark]

I'm still trying to figure out how I've reformed when all I heard in my head while reading that category was David Byrne repeating "same as it ever was"...

 

[dimmerwit]

Going to be honest, you two have put more thought into that category than I did.

 

[Quagmire]

Worst Amercianism
MM/DD/YY.

I prefer it to dd/mm/YY helps with sorting files if named by date (yyyy/mm/DD) is the best (I want to see things around the 21st of a given month not all 21st of the year then 20ths or 22nds etc). It's a harmless thing because it's how we give dates, plenty of actual things to hate on us. Why pick a nothing burger?

not saying "on" before the day of the week

Explain this one to me

 

[Crystal]

You're just plain amazing, that's not reformed. I've gone from bad to worse.

Going to be honest, you two have put more thought into that category than I did.

I'm great at overthinking!

 

[Mark]

I never claimed to be the brains of the operation.

Bully.

 

[Crystal]

I never claimed to be the brains of the operation.

...but if you're not then who is?!

Bully.

 

[Mark]

...but if you're not then who is?!

Definitely Ben.

 

[Crystal]

Definitely Ben.

Makes sense

 

[MC74]

Not as bad as I have.

 

[shortkut]

not saying "on" before the day of the week

What day is tomorrow? “On Friday”

 

[dimmerwit]

In the sense of say a news report saying something like "there was a major crash on the interstate Friday".

I miss the "on". It sounds too abrupt without it.

You must listen to weird American news reports. They often say “on” in that context or they would say something like “this past Friday” or

 

[Crystal]

Nope, you've been absolutely fine, hon.

 

[MC74]

Nope, you've been absolutely fine, hon.

Far from it, Crystal.

 

[Crystal]

Far from it, Crystal.

Trust me, hon, you're doing fine. You've got me. Lean on me.

I just hit my image limit for the day, so I'm gonna have to feed it some information about the others that way it's ready to go tomorrow. I ain't paying $20/mo JUST for these shenanigans, and I don't really have any other use for it other than cooking up half-assed comics.

Nothing wrong with that! I used the free version for a while. Only reasons I upgraded to Plus was because of work-related stuff plus my Acolytes game, though the more I use it the more uses I'm finding for it.

I also might steal Krys' login details for her account she uses for work and just completely fuck up the whole thing by introducing it to the forum members. I'm sure nothing could go wrong with combining that bullshit with her paralegal bullshit, right?

It would help with the Jamie aspects!
