Molly slowly emerging from the chronosynclastic infundibulum

We’re getting there. The nominations for August have been tallied, and the Molly goes to…

Amphiox

Next, September. You can remember back to September, can’t you? (I don’t think I can).

    Did anything exciting happen in September?

  2. feralboy12 says:

    Chronosynclastic infundibulum!

    My copy of The Sirens of Titan is on a shelf about two feet to my right. Win!

  3. 'Tis Himself, OM says:

    Congratulations, Amphiox. Your invitation to the monthly OM baby roast and orgy is being lost in the mail as I write this.

    For September I nominate Jafafahots because he’s intelligent, witty, and something else that I forget AND A. Noyd for decisive, astute writing on numerous topics.

  4. Aquaria says:

    Congrats to amphiox.

    My votes go to Rey Fox and Rorschach.

  5. Nerd of Redhead, Dances OM Trolls says:

    Congratulations to Amphiox. I’ll add a couple of days aging to your next grog.

    Let’s see, my lists say *looks at pile of paper where lists are* nothing at the moment. I’ll get back later, after the shredder makes confetti of the junk.

    “chronosynclastic infundibulum”

    Is that the whole of Morris, or just the campus?

    Oh yeah, with all those feckin’ churches, it’s gotta be the whole of Morris.

  7. Congratulations!

    For September,

    consciousness razor

    Dianne

    Stephen Wells

    (I can’t remember if any of them commented here in September specifically, but those are my general choices.)

  8. cicely, Inadvertent Phytocidal Maniac says:

    Congrats, Amphiox!

  9. KG says:

    Congratulations to amphiox (and to Brother Ogvorbis for July!)

    For September: Rey Fox, consciousness razor and Dianne

  10. SQB says:

    Congratulations, Amphiox, and my vote for September goes to Louis.

  11. A3Kr0n says:

    Fantabulistic Amphiox!
    I don’t know who to vote for. Can I vote for Erin Breda’s “Why I’m an Atheist”?

  12. Congratulations, Amphiox!

    I’ll repeat myself from the last noms:

    Jafafahots, who has been ignored much too long and always has sharp, insightful comments.

    A. Noyd, who writes with clarity, incisiveness and patience.

    Louis, who goes above and beyond when communicating with peoples and always provides amusement.

  13. athyco says:

    So well-deserved, Amphiox! It makes a September vote much easier since there were two names with many check marks on my list. Now that you’ve been mollified, my choice is clear.

    Here, then, is a ballot marked A. Noyd.

  14. otrame says:

    Grats, Amphiox. Very well deserved.

    Louis and Diane are my choices for September.

  15. The Ys says:

    Congrats!

  16. ChasCPeterson says:

    You know, Jerry Garcia owned the movie rights to Sirens of Titan. Supposedly there’s a draft screenplay he did with Terry Southern.
    There’s a project I’d like to see.

  17. drewl, Mental Toss Flycoon says:

    Congrats Amphiox!

    I’d be happy with any of the noms upthread, but I’ll vote Dianne for some serious heavy lifting and sweet fact smackdowns.

  18. drewl, Mental Toss Flycoon says:

    Also Chas @ 16, I’m now very curious about that project. More for JG, but also TS. Thanks for the tangent!

  19. I trap the neigbors’ cats. Their meat is gamy, and a bit stringy, gets caught between the teeth, but I am able to digest their cat souls, and project the mighty pussy at my job, wandering around, pretending to do something, and laughing at the mice.

  20. Dan says:

    This is where I learned about the “chronosynclastic infundibulum”. I wish I could find the entire movie. It’s hilarious, and weird satire…you know Vonnegut. and it even has Bob and Ray the funniest news team ever!

  21. Father/Brother/Nephew/Cousin/ex-Mother-in-Law Ogvorbis, OM: Independently-Minded Baboon says:

    Congrats, Amphiox.

    I hereby third (or foruth, fitfh, or whatever) Louis. Xe has shoen remarkeable patience dealing with willfully obtuse trolls, semitrolls, demitrolls and learning noobies. It alwasys amazes me just how well treating someone seriously can either enrage or engage. Well done, Louis.

  22. pj says:

    Ye yee! Conga-rats to amphiox.

    For september I nominate Louis. His posts always make me want ask “What are you on, and can I get some?”.

  23. Mattir says:

    Congratulations to Amphiox, and for September, Louis and Rey Fox.

  24. Antiochus Epiphanes says:

    Puzzah!

    Rohrschach and Rey Fox

  25. Ogvorbis, Temorarily Disconnected From My Computer And Can't Sigh In says:

    And I just reread my #21 and ask that the powers-that-be do not judge my nomination based on my homages to Tpyos.

  26. Congratulations, Amphiox!
    I second A.Noyd

  27. David Marjanović, OM says:

    …um… people… he’s a lowercase amphiox.

    I can’t remember September at all and have probably missed many of the threads you’re talking about.

  28. David:

    …um… people… he’s a lowercase amphiox.

    Um, David, some of us capitalize proper names because it’s proper and the way most of us were taught.

  29. Sili says:

    Um, David, some of us capitalize proper names because it’s proper and the way most of us were taught.

    So you’re taught to go against the wishes of the wearer? Do you call them Christian names, too?

    Proper names are capitalised, if people want them capitalised. Personally I think bell hooks is a wanker for insisting on doing it off the Internet, but as a nym I don’t mind.

    Anyway, congrats to OMphiox.

    Rorschach

    And for October: oniongirl (no capital) and Muse, the lesbian (no capital) lovers.

  30. Classical Cipher, Murmur Muris, OM says:

    Congrats to amphiox! I’ll renom Rorschach for consistent awesomeness and Louis for being hilarious.

  31. Sastra says:

    Well deserved Molly for amphiox. Congrats!

    For September:

    consciousness razor

    A. Noyd

  32. Antiochus Epiphanes says:

    [OT]
    Sastra: Do you still have my e-mail? Could you send me that pic…you know the one that PZ took, but is not in? (Thanks, Squidly OL). Thanks

    [/OT]

  33. Muse (evidently temptress of Pharyngula women) says:

    I’m for Dianne and Louis

  34. kristinc says:

    Dianne and Louis for me too. Dianne is fierce and articulate, Louis is patient and ever ready to lie in wait until he can skewer some absurdity.

  35. Philip Legge says:

    Chalk up another poster most impressed by Louis (very strong efforts by others such as Muse and Dianne notwithstanding).
