2008 Funniest Watcher

Post by **lurch** » Sat Jan 17, 2009 1:44 am

There is a sense of humor often displayed here that is quirky and with depth. I'd like to recognize it here by nominating Sgt Null.

I'd like to nominate Ken Socrates as the funniest watcher of this year. His disection of a corn chip thread had me spewing milk from my nose (which is odd, as I wasn't drinking milk at the time). And the way he tap danced in text....I still don't understand how he did that. Amazing. Probably should be the Watcher of the Year, but as he had me giggling throughout the year, and I remember the laughs more, I want to nominate him.

I'd like to nominate Cag for Funniest Watcher.
His above post is an example of why.
Also, his cutting his head open on a bag of ice(please don't teach your child to do that!)

Thanks, but I'll never win a Watchie. I'm the Susan Lucci of the Watch!

Dunno what you're whining about -- I didn't even get a nomination this year. Or any other year, come to think of it.

If they had a 'best Anthology author' category, you'd have won by now, and I certainly wound have nominated you for it. And I wasn't whining, I was predicting. Accurately predicting, too.

At this rate, dAN, they-we-whoever may end up awarding you an Honourary Watchy like at the Oscars.

Thing was, I think this category mutated from Best Comedic Effort to Funniest Watcher. So...instead of identifying and rewarding specific instances of brilliant humor such as yours, this became a nebulous - and dare I say lazy - category. Like Watcher of the Year. Whatever. Politics.

Aww. Thanks, dAN!

You'll win a Watchy one of these times. That's *my* prediction.

Don't feel bad, I never got a Watchy, either. I think I may have been nominated once (didn't check this year's, though, I managed to miss the Watchies altogether this year, due to being too busy).

ali, you and I are among the prize-winners for longevity on the forum!

Good point!

i have won nothing the last couple of years. there needs to be a participant award.

I'm sorry, it's difficult for me to read all these "crying like a baby" posts because my 2008 Funniest Watcher award is so big and shiny it's blocking my view of the screen...

I'd like to nominate High Lord Tolkien for about the funniest thing I've seen since Borat:

kevinswatch.ihugny.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=12358

The thread was very serious, memorical emotions ran high and deep...

...and then he drops this...

...and for about twenty minutes, I just would laugh and then pause, start doing something else, and then start laughing and crying again and again!!!!!!

I know it was from '07, but still...
