Having both gotten lasik and a Jones level eyepoke, I can attest that they feel quite similar. Only difference is that my eyes recovered in about a couple of days after lasik, whereas after the poke my sight was cloudy and it kept hurting for weeks.

Fatherdog will now be able to extract extremely specific posts from the annals of history (or his .txt file for stuff that he needs to repeat because all of our conversations are circular) with superb speed and accuracy the likes never before seen.

I think I mentioned this in last year's thread, but worst fight of the year. Also least favorite fighter?

Lloyd Boner posted:I think I mentioned this in last year's thread, but worst fight of the year. Also least favorite fighter? I don't like "Least Favorite Fighter" because the guys with really annoying personalities have to share space with actual rapists and murderers and you wind up feeling weird for picking the dudes that just irritate you a lot. Worst fight is a good one, and I think somebody suggested Schadenfreude of the Year so I think I'll add that too.

The Edmond Tarvedyan Memorial "Schadenfreude of the Year" Award really has very little competition.

Runner-up is an insanely smug Luke Rockhold getting laid out by Michael Bisping, who repeatedly clowned him afterwards while Luke turns into the sorest loser I've ever seen.

i think aaron cobb showing up massively overweight, not giving a gently caress and being a dick about it, and then being bodyslam KO'd by gerald harris is a contender in this category

Bisping irritates the poo poo out of me but him sitting at the post-fight presser drinking beer and laughing while Rockhold got saltier by the minute was a moment of high comedy

There's plenty to go around.

It completely slipped my mind, but Schaudenfruede of the Year could go to Cyborg for being insufferable all loving year, then pissing hot after repeatedly ducking the title shot she demanded

Fentry posted:I'll make a new one soon, just post it in here for now Invicta FC 21 Amy Montenegro vs Celine Haga Nominated for MMA Comedy Haga taps to an armbar half a second after the bell at the end of round 1; Montenegro doesn't get the win and fight continues. Haga chokes Montenegro unconscious at the bell in round 3; Montenegro wins the decision. That's right - this fight had a submission, a technical submission, and a unanimous decision. Nominated for Referee Fuckery Greg Franklin for overseeing ^^^^^ Nominated for Fight of the Year/Honourable Mention Because it was cool as poo poo gumby girl grappling the whole way through in addition to the weirdness of the whole thing. Invicta FC 21 Megan Anderson vs Charmaine Tweet Nominating Tweet for some kind of comedy/schaudenfreude/lameness award for naming her backfist the "Sask Slap" (cuz she's from Saskatchewan, right? hue hue) after she got one TKO via backfist, you know, beacuse it's her special move now, and then spamming it like a hyperactive tween playing Tekken while Megan Anderson punched her face literally off. UFC Fight Night 103 - Oleksiy Oliynyk Sub of the year, ofc - Bottom mount ezekiel choke finish of Victor Pesta.

Fentry has a list for each category in the OP - don't know if they're already planning on putting something together or not. 2017 version of this thread is up as well, if you haven't already seen it.
