can we have a DIzzy as a counterpart to the DUzies? [View all]

Difference being that DIzzy would be for the dumbest thing said on Discussionist on a periodic basis?

Here's my first nomination (note: this post was in response to a " female privilege checklist" started by some misogynist asshole there):

The one about remaining seated really chaps me.

I'm on a strictly controlled diet and must monitor my caloric intake. An unexpected expenditure of energy, like being required to rise to meet someone, can throw off my balances for the whole day.

I'll bet that is something feminists never think about.
