The 7th Annual Brinty Awards

Ursa Major

Well-known member
DONOR
It is time once again sports fans to nominate and vote for the Egriz Brintys.

I apologize about the delay, as many of you know, our former parent company, the Wang Wiener & Meat By-Products Corporation (WW&MbPC) was crippled by President Trump’s tariffs. Thanks to some eleventh-hour negotiating, Jared Kushner was able to arrange a buy-out with the help of a Seattle Area investment group. As of January 5th the Brinty’s are now a wholly owned subsidiary of Everett Financial Group . . . again.

Following the news of the acquisition, half of the staff quit and my dog ran away.

Over the past year, I've attempted to bookmark posts that have been noted as 'Post of the Year' by you, the Egriz community. If you do not see one of your favorite posts from the past year on this list, please point it out and I will add it. In addition, please nominate posters for the additional Brinty Award Categories (B.A.C.).

Due to an ongoing battle with alcohol, the Awards will be announced around February 5th.

I’d like to withdraw my POTY nominee if I could. Although I do appreciate the nominee(thanks UMCheer), and I do think it was creative and funny, it is certainly not POTY worthy. It really should only be appreciated by Star Wars lovers/scat haters. There are certainly more deserving posts. Thank you.

What was that old saying about “in the eye of the beholder?” If it was worthy of the nomination - it’s worthy of staying.
 
Thank you again, Ursa, for this impressive and comprehensive work on the annual awards; and for the thread killer nomination. I am indeed humbled and grateful for the honor. However, I'm not sure I'm deserving this year since I have not been as active on the board as in the past. How can we measure which - and how many - threads I might have killed? Unless, of course, the mere thought that I MIGHT post at any time was off-putting to some, in which case I deserve whatever I get.

And it was lovely to see you in the waiting room of that clinic. Bless you for not bringing up the circumstances that compelled us to be there. I enjoyed our pithy and witty observations and [less than] charitable remarks about others in the vicinity. I hope, upon reflection, that you do not think of me as an intolerant judgemental woman, but it was a bad day for me. Everything started to go willy nilly when I fed Ruggles and Red the wrong food for breakfast and suffered the consequences. You always lift me up with your sage advice and raucous laughter, no matter what shape you are in. I also enjoyed very much your vision for redecorating the place (I agree; it was hard to maneuver our hoses and equipment) and I loved your ideas for the vending machines and meditation topics. Namaste my friend. MM
 
Thank you, Ursa, for hosting. Also, thanks to all Past Post of the Year Winners who attended the Champion's Dinner in St. Ignatius last month. How about that ride in, huh? I guess that's why they call it "Sin City". Anyway, it was great to see you all and discuss the inside info regarding the Griz and BSC. I can't say I was surprised by the real reason for Choach's "extension", but that thing about the donors and the dentist chair shook me. It doesn't seem like the kind of thing one can simply sweep "under the rug", if you catch my drift. Shout out to MillerCoors for the free Olde English® and Steel Reserve®, and a hearty thank you to ConAgra Foods for the tasty Hungry-Man® dinners and Slim Jim® snacks.

To the votes:
**I hereby cast a vote for every unopposed nominee** Congrats, ladies and gents.

Man, that was a very close third for me, but I had to give BW the nod for his dressing down of Greenacres. The rest of that thread might've helped with Greenacres acting like he was doing all of it on purpose for 15+ years, only to flip the script in 2018, and having it backfire even further. I don't think he's posted since.

If I had a third vote, I'd be right there with you.

If you are referring to your “boys are back in town” post, that was probably one of the Greatest Of All Time...

Actually, it was one of the dumbest things of all time, and my view is that those of who thought it is funny are total idiots. It also resulted in my not saying who was in town and some of what went on. Tru was one of them. The boys were also in town in NYC when I was there a couple months ago, and we had a great and late night on the town.
