A Nobel prize obtained by threats and bullying would surely need to be renamed.

Any suggestions?

The Noballs Prize?

So that's your best attempt, when there are efforts to end thousands of men being killed.

Its true, lefties want to perpetuate wars

So you are happy to capitulate to Putin, demonstrating to the world that military aggression against a neighbour can gain you extra territory.
Have you any idea how many countries want to take land from their neighbours and will see such a capitulation as a green light to try?
Remember how well Chamberlain's piece of white paper appeasing Hitler went in the 1930s......

I wonder if Trump would happily concede Alaska back to Putin in order to maintain "peace".
Let's face it, the US got it cheap so it must have been stolen.

If Trump says that's what should be done the MAGA sycophant will agree that's what needs to be done. There's probably some randoms on X that can be quoted as proof that it is the right thing to do.

Ah, I didn’t realise there was a real Ig Nobel prize.
The Ig Nobel Prize is a satirical prize awarded annually since 1991 to promote public engagement with scientific research. Its aim is to "honor achievements that first make people laugh, and then make them think." The name of the award is a pun on the Nobel Prize, which it parodies, and on the word "ignoble".
Indeed. Last year's winners were:
  • Anatomy: Marjolaine Willems, Quentin Hennocq, Sara Tunon de Lara, Nicolas Kogane, Vincent Fleury, Romy Rayssiguier, Juan José Cortés Santander, Roberto Requena, Julien Stirnemann, and Roman Hossein Khonsari, for finding that scalp hair whorls are more likely to spiral in a counter-clockwise direction in the Southern Hemisphere compared to the Northern Hemisphere.[330]
  • Biology: Fordyce Ely and William Petersen, both posthumously awarded for repeatedly exploding paper bags next to a cat that was standing on the back of a cow and finding that it caused the cow to produce less milk.[330][331]
  • Botany: Independent Magna, Utah-based researcher Jacob White and Felipe Yamashita, of the University of Bonn, for finding that certain plants imitate the leaf shape of nearby plastic plants and concluding that "plant vision" is plausible.[330][332]
  • Chemistry: Amsterdam team of Tess Heeremans, Antoine Deblais, Daniel Bonn and Sander Woutersen, for their use of chromatography to separate drunk worms from sober worms.[330][333]
  • Demography: Saul Justin Newman, of the University of Oxford, for finding that supercentenarians and extreme age records tend to come from areas with no birth certificates, rampant clerical errors, pension fraud, and short life spans.[330][334]
  • Medicine: Lieven Schenk, Tahmine Fadai and Christian Büchel, for finding that fake medicine that induces painful side-effects can be more effective than fake medicine that does not cause painful side-effects.[330][335]
  • Peace: B. F. Skinner, posthumously awarded for his study on housing live pigeons inside missiles to guide them to their targets.[330]
  • Physics: James Liao of the University of Florida for his long-running study on how dead trout can swim.[330]
  • Physiology: Takanori Takebe, for finding that several mammals can breathe through their anus.[336][330]
  • Probability: A team of 50 researchers, mostly Dutch, for performing 350,757 experiments to show that when a coin is flipped, it is slightly more likely to land on the same side as it started.[

It's true.

Where would the inspiration for shite punk music, protests and general leftie bollocks come from otherwise?

But then where would the gammony right go to whinge about woke snowflakes and freeze peach?

Tough old world.
