@E28, your nomination is not currently specific enough to be counted.

@E28, your nomination is not currently specific enough to be counted.

The world's most tasteful toilet has now been added in it's place.

 

[fortbo]

I might have done this wrong. I posted my own thread.

 

[Roger the Horse]

@fortbo I recommend that you erase the contents of the thread you created and then post your nomination in here.

They came out today and I happen to own a pair. They are now all sold out.

Oh man, it's gonna be forever before my first one gets a go, let alone a second nomination when it comes around!

In honor of it being DCI World Finals night tonight:

DCI (Drum Corps International) Drum and Bugle Corps as a Competitive Activity

Timeframe: 1972-present
Description: Every summer, DCI corps embark on a season much like a sports season; for most of the summer months they are rehearsing all day and then going on tour, competing against other corps at football stadiums across the United States with a show nearly every night, culminating in the DCI Finals, held every year at Indianapolis' Lucas Oil Stadium.
Members: A typical DCI World Class corps consists of members aged 13-22 who audition and pay thousands of dollars for the opportunity. A world class corps is comprised of brass instrumentalists playing bell front marching instruments (and formerly specialized G bugles), a front "pit" consisting of orchestral percussion, a "drumline" or marching battery percussion, a color guard, and one or multiple drum majors.
Purpose: Each corps prepares a show 8-12 minutes in length that consists of music, marching and choreography that is rigorously evaluated by the on-field and press box judges in a number of categories, for a total score out of 100.
Further Information:
Pictures really don't do drum and bugle corps any sort of justice. Here are some videos:
- 1988 Madison Scouts full show
- 1996 Phantom Regiment show ending
- 2013 Carolina Crown show excerpt
- 2013 Carolina Crown hornline show excerpts​

@OriginalCheezIt I did throughout high school.

A part of me has always wanted to march DCI, but due to both financial and time requirements, it probably won't happen.

I'm currently in my senior year of high school, our season just started. What did you play?

Wait for the poll to go up or take it to private chat, please.

Since my nomination to put the Cool Wall on the Cool Wall wasn't accepted... I'll use a local landmark instead.

1831-1967, 1971-Present London Bridge:

Description: In the early 1800's, the "New" London Bridge was built to replace the outgoing 600 year old bridge, which was too narrow and blocked river traffic. In 1896, it became obvious that too many people used the bridge, and was widened by 13 feet. All this weight was too much, as it started sinking an inch every 8 years. By 1924, the east side had sunk some three to four inches lower than the west side. The bridge would have to be removed and replaced. In 1967, the City of London put the bridge on sale, this intrigued a Robert McCulloch, who brought it for $2,460,000 to jumpstart his planned city. It worked, as it now attracts everything from retirees, to college students who come once a year to get perpetually wasted on the Lake during spring break.

I should point out that the number of corners at this track is constantly debated, so this number is not approximate.

Only the 38th nomination in the queue. But I'd happily wait to see how low this can go.

1999-2004 TV Airings of Spongebob Squarepants.

​

The TV show that made history.

And these episodes are the ones before the franchise got butchered by kids and money scumming executives. I.E: before the Movie.

 

[Jimlaad43]

I decided to add a description to the Death Star.

After half the world's population was wiped out in the tsunami and the war that followed it in the year 2000, humanity needed a way to protect itself from the impending angelic threat that nobody bothered to explain and this is sounding absolutely horrifically dated by now. DAMN YOU, OLD SCIENCE FICTION WORKS!



RIP Robin Williams, the world would have been a far worse place if you didn't make us laugh so much.
