POTY

The Right Choice is standing by and ready for nomination...

[Jingthing]

The pickings are so slim this year I think it's time that the rule against repeat winners be rescinded.

And I am sure he will be. Rightly so. However I was talking about the Right Choice, the best choice. The poster who flew back yesterday and survived both seat 34H then spent 9 hours on a bloody train in 3rd Class being quizzed by Pattani seperatists...

But he must be the right choice, you nominated him last year.

Well I could hardly nominate my bloody self, could I...?

 

Have you ever sat in 34H?

Really? Can you do that?

Not that I give a toss, but can you stand by for 10 minutes before replying?

Yes of course you can like your own posts on f/b, but I've never known anybody but a Thai that does it.

I honestly think if you moved your politics a little to the right you would stand a better chance of achieving the ultimate accolade of the year as POTY.

Aye, right, so's we can go all through the petulant jerry-mandering nonsense of yesteryear.  
I second the proposal.

Even more to the right? I think you will find my avatar identifies me already as centre ground but slightly left-leaning. A moderate, in short.

 

Meanwhile, you can like your own posts on Facebook, can't you? I just checked. Jesus, just how narcissistic can people be..?

Rumor is there will be a 9th dot awarded to the winner this year. Unprecedented in all of forumdom.

Whoa 9 .! Geronimo will surely have a say on that .. Where is he anyway and has he got the gig for the commentary this year ..

Business class is the way to go mate so long as you're bourgeois and capitalist enough to pay for it ..

@tutsiwarrior is wondering where everyone has gone. I've only seen two or three posts from last year's winner @transam

 

The most exciting post recently was the outrageous price of bread in 7/11.....I'm voting for him.

Bluesofa .? Yea I'll go with that .. And Darcula is another as some of his stuff is outrageously funny and worthy of a nomination onto any list of runners ..

?toty? Totty Of The Year?

 

Where do I sign up as a Canvasser?

If he wins it'll be a case of POTY meets TOTTY to eat roti.

Steady... sailing close to the wind there...

Let's keep that sort of discussion to another forum

What was your favourite POTY competition?

Can you remember which was which?

 

To the tune of "Common People" by Pulp...

"Does it all seem such a blur?

Was it him or was it her?

Did they flounce off in the huff

Crying "I have had enough"

At the start of December?
I can't remember..."

 

Maybe Transam can fill us in, if that's not inciting violence...

 

SC

 

I can sing that to incite violence....????

Nah. My suffering is your reading pleasure.

I can't lose, can I? My supporters feel sorry for me and my detractors get a bit of satisfaction at the thought of the food cart slamming into the back of my seat every 5 minutes. Then there was that idiot woman who thought my seat back would make an excellent inflight exercise machine....????

[transam]

I can tell all you hopefuls that the only thing I got from TVF for winning was free membership for life....????

There's an offer you can't reduce.

I'm taking that as a threat, rather than an offer

My nomination goes to CharlieH, for doing his bit by opening five threads in the Pub on the same day.

[owl sees all]

BB1 has dropped away and Marko is in hiding. Andy D has run back to England but fasteddie and chickenlegs continue to make us laugh.

 

If there was a poll for best thread (TOTY) of the year then '7 eleven rant' would take it IMO. Although I've 

forgotten a lot of the other gems.

 

Therefore it's bluesofa for the title. A worthy winner he would prove to be too. 

 

What year was the 'poison brother in law' topic? Another outstanding thread.

At the end of the day, someone has to post on this forum

Through the history of POTY I don't think a MOD has ever stepped down in order to contest for the coveted honour of POTY

A good nomination, but not the best one you could make. Just saying...

 

When does POTY kick off in earnest and how long will I have to wait to receive the title...?
