No stealing, Lyra405. The only exception to that is for the new Seth MacFarlane movie. You can steal that if you want.

The stars have aligned, the deep old ones are arising, last night Marc took my advice, and this morning I am agreeing wholeheartedly with Beamer. Truly, these are the end times.

I should probably clarify something: I nominated three people, but I've already decided who I'm casting my vote for. This has truly been Motor Oil's month, and I urge everybody to ignore the other candidates this time around.

Vote sensibly. Vote for your favourite popcorn lubricant.

What tnuk said. Motor Oil was robbed last month, I tells ya!

* Gorky strokes her PotM trophy and cackles maniacally and with such gusto that some spittle sticks to the fake handlebar mustache she's loaned for this special, villainous occasion.

Anyway, here are my nominations:

Motor Oil
Josh
Tachyon

I love how all the nominations so far are for TNUK, Meerkat, Tachy, Josh and Motor Oil.

From what I've seen and heard of that movie so far I don't know why anyone would want to steal it :s

[Reply #12 on:]

Well, would you pay money for it?

[Reply #13 on:]

Well, would you pay money for it?

If I wouldn't even want to get it *coughbystealing* for free, paying precious money would be a no

That fact is closely correlated with the distribution of Darkness, Evil, Depravity, and Maniacal Obsession amongst Peel's membership*.


* In no particular order.

Second. I've enjoyed the posts from all three of these people.

Actually, I'm gonna nominate Nasty Pasty for organising the PEEL reunion and bringing mostly everyone back. It's great to see such activity and good spirits around here. Good on ya, Nasty!

Honourable mention to [-mArc-] as well for temporarily unbanning some of those said members so that said reunion could be more effective.

Also, sorry I replaced you Josh. Maybe next month.

[Reply #17 on:]

Since everyone is nominating the same few people who are all already certain to appear on the poll, I'll add in some different ones just to fill out the ranks.

What in the name of all that is lightly toasted are you people smoking?

Just a couple of notes:

1. Your nominee needs to be a registered account who posted in May.

That other wicked guy whose nickname I forgot

So this is totally invalid.

2. The PEEL reunion was a June thing, really. Not May. Pasty should win for June, since he hasn't actually posted in May. Which means that he's also an invalid nomination for this month.

The POTM sub-board moderators who have so far failed to point these things out should all either be ashamed of themselves, or cut back on their non-PEELing activites so as to have more time to point these things out in the future.

[Reply #24 on:]

There, I fixed my noms for you.

[Reply #25 on:]

I was gonna point out the whole June thing, but I wasn't actually certain about it since time zones are weird.

[Reply #26 on:]

There, I fixed my noms for you.

Anybody BUT tnuk

Not everybody who isn't me is elegible, and the decision as to who to allocate your nomination to would need to be taken by a moderator, effectively granting them an extra nomination. This nomination is equally as invalid as your previous choice of Nasty Pasty.

Honestly, I think at this point you should give up editing your post, and just drink until you can no longer feel hot shame burning within you like a nuclear inferno.

[Reply #27 on:]

If the nominee hasn't actually posted last month, that nomination will be disregarded. Follow the rules, PEELple.

[Reply #28 on:]

What? No fucking way, dude.

[Reply #29 on:]

Nasty opened the Bring Out Your Dead thread on May 31st, my time:

* 05-31-2014 22:05 *

Which is also May 31st in the time zone of the person who created *THIS* thread.  So my nomming Nasty Pasty for POTM was technically correct.  The *best* kind of correct!

No, it's not. The "board time" for PEEL puts the thread creation as being around 6am on the morning of the first of June. In order to get the time displayed to match up with your local time, your profile allows you to "offset" the time to match up (and does so automatically for the benefit of people too dumb to find the option in their profile).

Your time zone constitutes a wilful and subjective obfuscation of reality for the sake of the collective illusion that certain times of day correspond to a certain expected amount of light and number of people awake at that point, to which we subscribe globally in order to allow the meaningful use of a standardised system for telling the time and keeping track of the date. Since this time zone is not the same as the board's time zone, it must be accounted for by you when calculating the time at which a particular item was posted.

You are neither correct, nor "technically correct". You are comprehensively wrong.

[Reply #31 on:]

I reject your reality and substitute my own!

[Reply #32 on:]

I reject your reality and substitute my own!

I look forward to the production of a quantifiable empirical test which can determine with certainty whether or not this has actually happened.

[Reply #33 on:]

I performed one, but all I remember about it is that a successful end condition would result in topical memory loss.

[Reply #34 on:]

Nooo! By performing the experiment, you changed the outcome!
