Reckoned the request to keep comments to other threads wasn't workable but didn't want to be first transgressor.
Objection to DML's comments as a) subjective b) as winkle has said earlier don't come whining after nominations close, choose sum of yer own.

Brodie - this is an insane waste of time by a maggot-ridden foundling laid over a singsong from 50s/60s housewives whose brians had been freeze-dried and framed in amber.

But before then their brians had been converted to brains!  So there!
