Is a DUzy too much to ask for?
Recently, my husband asked me what I wanted for my birthday (which was a few weeks ago) and I said "ooooh I want a DUzy"

at first he thought I said Doobie - and he said "well honey where can I get that?"

and I said no...DUzy!


and he got this familiar look in his eye - and said well honey, why wait for your birthday let's go right now....

to which I said, no dear its not that time of year - that's your birthday present



so I am DUzy-less, and I know its because I am not as clever and witty as the rest of ya.

I just ordered from Amazon "Idiots Guide to DUzy Awards: A Guide for Humorless Stick up the Ass Liberals"

stay tuned to see if it works

cheers my Loungers

1. I have one DUzy to my credit
And it happened on thread where I was not trying to impress the DUzy judges. Just do your thing and I bet you will get some recognition for it somehow.

3. You've got to be quick.
Many times I've thought of something good, only to be beaten to the punch.

You've got to be thorough.

Comment on many threads over several days.

You've got to wash JeffR's car.

(Just kidding.)

4. Actually, the process is simple
JeffR takes nominations for them, then collects them in the DUzy awards.

All you need is a nomination.

If you make it worth my while...

5. Take comfort. I have almost 16,000 posts and have yet to be so amusing
as to warrant a DUzy. I bet that surprises no one.

8. Just a tip



....don't in your quest for a DUzy use the "stick up the ass" line. I used it once and all I got was a deleted post.

Keep trying you'll get your DUzy. :hug:

9. A number of my best DUzy-worthy remarks were appended to the end
of a south-bound thread and never seen again. It's probably best to consider posting earlier in a thread so you don't kill the thread with your brilliance.
