So it’s been a few months since the last one, here’s your chance to nominate the favourite things said on RiotACT or about RiotACT to be added to the taglines which rotate on the top of the page.

Note nominations need to be precise and link to the source where possible.

“Ummm, someone said something really funny in November about stuff” will not be considered.

When’s the cutoff date for these pearls of wisdom to join/replace the current taglines?

it’s probably best not to get on your roof with a tripod during a lighning storm.

comments like S4anta’s sometimes make me think Riot is closer to an episode of that TV series Grumpy Old Men. The one where the Grumpsters can’t say anything positive about anything at all.

I will start to take legal actions on the slanderous comments being posted here. Comment by patens regarding his little sister

I find most of the comments on this site to be very low brow, and poorly thought through.

Miz, You’re not that woman from the Australian Pensioners Insurance ads?

Must agree with Nik_the_Pig

Car-o-Llama by far the best comment of the past couple of months

Would it be churlish to cast aspersions on the size of your wang at this point, VY?

The elf has a point! Comment by Blamemonkey — 18 January, 2007

Hahahahahahahaa Comment by Thumper – 1 minute later

there’s a lot of sad acts here nominating themselves for posterity. my vote:

i quite like the idea of the homosexual equivalent of the tradies club. instead of trams, various public lavatory designs could feature.

It could be called the “Rough Tradies”

Comment by Ari — 17 January, 2007 @ 1:00 pm

– More to the point, is there an alternative site we can recommend for the intemperate and noisy Chris S, to reduce the impact of his rude, arrogant, irascible and downright puerile brayings on RA? Piss off, you boorish and ill-mannered wanker.

Was posted by terubo, IIRC.

in the spirit of self-masturbation/nomination

i wrote a poem about fried chicken once, it went nothing like this sentence.

Beautifully worded, deep yet mostly irrelevant, and off topic – embodies the enigma which is Absent Diane. (read: it shows me for the d#ckhead I am)

I have a solution to this problem. Basically I stand naked on my front lawn twice a day with the hose gushing as hard as possible, and use the water that sprays out the edge to brush my teeth. I then gargle and spit onto the ground, and thoroughly clean my toothbrush. During this time, the grass beneath by feet gets a tad damp.

What are they going to do? Tell me to stop brushing my teeth?

Comment by VYBerlinaV8_now with_added_grunt — 12 January, 2007 @ 4:47 pm

Oh, and when I say hose I mean garden hose, not my penis.

^^^Pool room.

Comment by el — 12 January, 2007 @ 5:06 pm

How about we just keep the ‘garden hose not penis’ comment?

Hooray! 😀

You certainly tripped the moderation filter.

At which point I looked at it and decided the circumstances warranted letting it through despite encouraging all our moronic pedants to wail and moan about their stupid thoughts on double standards.

Did my post not come up because it had swears?
I can view it but it’s not in the recent comments section.
I can edit if need be.

“If Britain can have a Poet Laureate, we can have a Poet Lorikeet. I nominate Jey.”

It’s a car-a-llama

Para-phrasing of Ari’s comment on 24 January, 2007 @ 10:12 am

Okay, in an orgy of self nomination:

“Like Today Tonight, only Local” – Simto, Nov 2006

“If you’ve reached the age of majority and are unable to see through media bullshit, then, unfortunately, you’re screwed.” – Simto, June 2006

“Nobody loves you. Everyone hates you. Go eat worms” – Simto to Crazychester, 2006.

And, in case it’s not there yet, Che’s ever popular “Get your own damn blog”

I rant, possibly get extremely personal and annoying. Hell, that’s why I’m a poof!

“It’s pretty obvious that many RA posters have not read the articles, have not applied any logical reasoning or analysis, or endeavoured to engage in any reasoned, logical and intelligent debate.”

-One of many considered assessments from the even-tempered and avuncular Chris S, January 2007.
