Okay, so I've decided to keep track of these daily dundies, because I feel it's time to get serious about this. So here's all the instances I can find:

Okay, we have some decisions to make as a group: Is this going to become an officially thing, only one person getting it a day? If that is the case then we are doing this correctly: We will have a daily dundie committee (three revolving members, biweekly basis, one member rotates out at a time, with three alternates in case one members comment is up for a dundie), officially nominations the day after so a complete day is considered, and the like.
Or, we can continue the way we are now, all willy nilly, no limit to how many a day, going days without it and such.
I really could go either way. It doesn't matter to me. I'm organized enough to agree with a committee decision or just being the guy who archives this stuff for us.

That made my head hurt - and I'm sober!
I vote for "all willy nilly", and we'll see how it goes. But the Daily Dundie is too important to let die!
Also:

TWSS (He hoped.)
I think it's more fun to just award them randomly, but I'm not terribly sober and fairly lazy.
Bye the way, Asd, an impressive amount of work, there, archiving this crucial bit of NA-lore. My hat's off to you, sir!
If I wore hats.
Looks like you guys need to get to working on putting those dundies in a display case above your beds.
Sidenote to the single guys, Dundies go a long way with the ladies.
I agree with mtt, ASD. Very fine work you've done to compile those.
but I'm not terribly sober and fairly lazy.
I hear ya. I nearly typed "copulate" instead of "compile". Ack.

Word. Good work, my friend.

And now we know what's on St,D's mind.
Also, how she earned her name. ;-D
Personally, I like the committee style, but that's just my nature. I like official things, they always seem more grandiose. But like I said, either way is fine.
Backdoor or front.
Also, how she earned her name. ;-D
Hey.....
I love ya, Sweetie!
And with that I'm going to bed. About 5 hours of church tomorrow.

Will you announce, "Conference Room in 5 minutes?"
Also, my Dundie on April 12 went to KarenM. I just want everyone to get what's coming to them. :-)
Also, amazing job on the DD list, asd. We love how you choose to be.

But Jinx is the only person I can find on the thread noting that moment.
I'm just impressed with the amount of correct Markdown in that unedited post. Well done, Asd!

It is on the 12th page, 13 posts down. I said:
Hilarious. I didn't catch that. I couldn't find it, but you get the Daily Dundie for your post about Pam seeing Dwight at the door and saying "awesome." Or maybe she just saw the cooler.
Yeah, I had seen that, which is what caused me to create the specific mention. I just figured you messed up who had said it. I had looked through all the prior posts and Jinx was the only one I could find to mention that moment. Karen, can you help us out by telling or linking where you made mention to it?
It was not, however, accepted by us as a living tradition until much more recently. I wonder why it took so long to catch on?
This may be the first.
Wow, now that's old.
signs of genius are often evident at a very early age.

sometimes modern man rediscovers long forgotten advances. like those inca dudes and their perfect stone work.
I don't know why I didn't catch the first. I left out the second and others like it because they are dundies, not "daily dundies"

i'll left you know now i'll be retaining the services of mr. james p. griefboni in this matter.
I also do motorcycle head injury cases. And 1st Amendment law. I've already done some research, so the hours are piling up.
Well you gotta pay for those billboards somehow.
Seriously, you should really start looking into billboards. Great way to establish credibility.
I think I was given one once...the first ever Daily Dundie to go to a foreigner maybe...I have no idea where it was. Can anyone remember?
FYI: Although I should know who and where and why I was awarded a Dundie, I don't because I hide them...I don't want to get cocky.

I keep mine in a display case above my bed.
