I will second Dale's nomination. I also want to add this is long overdue.

In the legal world if we say something is 'immaterial' we mean it's irrelevant. That draws a nice little parallel, don't you think?

As nominated by Bathtub, and seconded by several posters at Atheist Central, this month's trophy goes to Str8tawk, for ignorance above and beyond the call of duty.

"Polymath" means "having learned much"; the correct word for "having failed to learn much" is simply "Ray".

I am honored to make this presentation to Str8tawk on this beautiful day of 24 June, 2011. It was previously determined by "The Committee" that the TBT would be awarded occasionally, as need be, as required, to elevate deserving persons to their rightful position in the annals of internet fundumbentalists.

Forthwith:
"This prestigious award shall be presented to little amoral turd monkeys who write thousands of words without ever making a salient point and are wont to use circular reasoning and continuously relate vague and random circumlocutions. They will have been noted to be churlish, lazy bastards who have no clue as to the nature of the material that they are writing about."

As it has been duly noted to "The Award Committee," and after extensive considerations, it has been determined that Str8awk has fullfilled the requirements of the award and it is hereby awarded to him in absentia.

Hip hip!
