Not 2014 though, I hope.

As long as he posts once a year in that thread I think he wins in perpetuity.

Well that shit ain't right. We all deserve ribbons.



Or not....

What you did there... I see it.

I honestly can't even think of another valid nominee. It was a quiet year for gang ass-kickings.

 

[Ruptga]

Is it that time again already? Adlep is a strong contender, but he still has to deal with the wearer of last year's crown in this fine thread.

I would say the VC is a bigger idiot, but since he isn't here...

Pretty much any McOwned thread in P&N.

That was easy. :biggrin:

I'll pick the gas price prediction thread. Nostradumbass wins again.

texashiker should have several threads in the running for this prestigious award

Yeah I was going to say.. Any thread started by TexasHiker is probably automatically considered to be a top ownage thread. Also, McOwned usually gets his ass handed to him on everything he posts, yet keeps posting over and over. He must be a real sharp tool in real life.

Most of the time any thread Alky even enters, turns into a shit show, too. Generally anything started by him, gets him a vacation and hordes of people crapping all over him.

 

[Sulaco]

How can McOwned not be nominated? Basically everything he posts is fool's gold. Literally.

A special favorite has to be the "2014 Gasoline Pirce Forecast" thread, where Dave predicts $6 a gallon gas by the end of 2014! Because, you know, "five has already been hit".

Five is old news,that has been reached and passed many times in Chicago.

They are shooting for six this year now. I'm sure we'll see it easily based on how many times been pushing $4 in the "low" months of winter.

I am continually amazed by people that cannot admit they're wrong. It's NO BIG DEAL. But no, they just keep digging themselves into a hole and making themselves appear more and more stupid. It's hilarious, but weird as fuck.

I dont think that as self ownage.

I could say any thread that someone defends religion. Or any political opinion other then "mine" from "my" perspective ~

 

[skipsneeky2]

I think the big thread about Commander_Kink was so epic from years back it still has to worthy of a nomination this year cause of the bump where some people think he got arrested actually.

I wasn't around during the days of the thread starting but it was pretty epic reading.

 

[Tweak155]

Can we get a summary for ones that are linked? Some are pretty big to go through.

I believe P&N threads aren't allowed to be submitted for the award, because McOWNED would always win. Dave McOwen is literally dumber than a tree stump.
