Right or wrong, I would do it all over again (but won't)- it has been a lot of fun.
"D" day is supper on Friday, Eastern Standard Time.
If I am still here then, I will proceed with Donation and Departure from AF.
Don't feel too bad, prof. It's not the end of the world.

Does it look bad of me to kudos my own nomination?
Fuck it - I will anyway. I'm such a rebel.

That's kudos masturbation, and masturbation is a sin. You'll grow teeth on the fingers of your thumbs-up button and hair on the back of its palm!

I'm coining the term "kudosturbation".

And any term that has any weight has to come from latin, or sound like it did.

Well, most of English derives from Latin, Greek, French and German (so ultimately Latin in those cases), with healthy dashes of Imperial imports for colour (most notably Indian - this allows one to wear jodhpurs if you're doolally, for instance). Kudosturbation, like television, would be the illegitimate hybrid offspring of a drunken and regrettable liaison between Greek and Latin.
I'd pronounce it coo-DOS-ter-BAY-shun.
(Edit: Actually, more like COO-dos-ter-BAY-shun. I'm always sticking my inflections where they're not wanted.)
