Hey Skinner? Can we get a DUzy link?
Kinda like the recommend, except just count them and allow a search by DUzy count. Allow it on any post and then when someone posts some righteous snark we can click it and the cream will rise.

1. Now I've heard everything.
We don't have time for humor. This OP is BS!

4. P.S.
I think it is a great idea to have the search function for best snark. And thought I might kick this at the same time.

11. Thanks! But almost 200 views and 9 replies, 5 recs isn't very encouraging
I thought people would agree with me.

16. K&R
I think it's a good idea. The DUzy awards are a bright spot in the week. Sometimes you just need to laugh.

12. Hah! I laugh on your mustache! What a terrible idea.
Jeffy (aka JeffR) posts his DUzy selections every Friday evening (or Saturday, if he stays at the bar too long). Jeffy clearly has no life at all. Sifting through the GD posts for gems of humor is the only thing he does that has meaning.

If the administrators add a DUzy link, JeffR will simply turn into a compiler of votes and he'll have no motivation to get out of bed at all. If anything, we should make the humorous threads more difficult to find.

A man's life is at stake here, people!

14. Just cos I really like the DUzys....gonna K & R
Think we may have a new TRADITION a-borning here...

Look at Terry Pratchett and Discworld. I'll bet he had NO IDEA that the idea would catch such fire and take on a life of its own when he wrote The Colour of Magic...

Hey...and we can all claim honestly that
WE WERE THERE WHEN IT HAPPENED, AND WE SAW IT BEGIN!
How cool is that?

15. What the heck?! I'll give this a rec
And bookmark it, of course, for possible DUzy-worthy stuff.

Thanks, Hoot!

May all your daze be DUzy-daze.;)

17. Wow, Thanks.
I'm not trying to replace you, just make the DUzys a little more all encompassing. Wouldn't it be nice for you to just search and get the past week's threads sorted by snark?

19. I love the idea of "sorted by snark"
Skinner was very gracious about allowing DUzy threads in GD. I'd feel piggish asking for more concessions, but I do like your idea.

22. At times we've been able to award hearts to posters
Maybe we could similarly award DUzy nominee icons to deserving posts that could be searched or sorted and culled for the Friday DUzy award post.

:loveya: Love the DUzy's! Thanks, JeffR!

(Anyone got a mucus-on-keyboard icon?)
