biology, psychology, and media... and the undead

And that was when I stopped caring

82. None of the products in my bathroom were tested on animals.

So I’ve decided to extend my contest a bit to give people more time to enter.  PLUS: I’m going to be traveling in a third-world country soon, and everybody loves lead-based toys and candy, right?

Enter now, supplies are limited, entry is not

77. My parents immigrated to the United States in 1987. As a direct result, I sort of want to thwack people whenever they talk about immigration (illegal or otherwise). Frankly, there are very few people I consider qualified to talk about the subject in any in-depth way.

I’m doing it. I’m going to have a contest. Hey, I might as well, right? You guys are like, fans and stuff.

This particular contest begins as an offshoot of this contest. I’ve entered several identical contests since then, but haven’t received anything yet (despite winning one a few weeks back). So I’ve decided to hold my contest now rather than later because I’m impatient like that.

This contest is a Pay-It-Forward-style giveaway. I send a care package to three of the people that comment on this post.  Each of those people then holds a similar contest online and sends a similar package to three other people.

In my particular version of this contest, two names will be chosen at random from whomever comments and one will be chosen based on their ability to stump me. All you have to do is think of a general knowledge question that I cannot answer. (No Google.) You can ask as many questions as you want, but the winning question will be be something I should know but currently don’t.

Ask me anything you want, I’ll answer what I can and keep you updated on who is winning.

The contest ends on Saturday. Comment now, comment often, and let’s see if you can Stump Pixel. Good luck!

Podarchy!

My friend and I are going to start a podcast soon, but we want to come up with a name first. So throw out ideas, I’ll leave this post at the top until we have a name for our show. Our conversations will essentially be this blog in mp3 form. There’ll be some skits, some music to commit suicide over, and some brilliant and/or off-the-wall conversations.

If we like your idea the best, we’ll give you the forbidden prize of mystery. Ready?

The Nominees…

By Pixel at March 16, 2005 at 10:51 pm. Filed in contest
  • Cassie (is boob-tacular)
  • Pet Penguin Tittie (round and squishy and has some form of blue/silver substance in him, which is remarkabley boob-like. He’s boob-tacular too)
  • Moofruot (Canadian, that’s always a plus… or maybe English. Either or. Plus, she reads my blog, and nothing shows more character and sexiness than reading what I write)
  • The gerbils that run in Moofruot’s brain (I understood the intention behind the post, but I just thought this’d be an excellent candidate :)
  • Tai (Who’s one of my distributors. Danke, m’love)

Nominations are still being accepted.

p.s. to the person that signed me up to receive daily updates of my own blog. Ha ha, that was good. Don’t do it again. >:( I was going to give you all one of my passwords to help with one of my pranks, but no more! :(
p.p.s. my e-pen pal says this is a bad idea and I should just wait for it to happen… Who agrees?

Your Suggestions

By Pixel at February 18, 2005 at 11:28 pm. Filed in contest

Drew Carey is good, and I suppose Daria and Chucky & co. are good choices as well.

Jerry Springer, though, is technically not a fictional character. Still, I maintain that there just aren’t many characters with glasses in entertainment.

So, Alethea and Erica, all you have to do now is comment here with some sort of account I can send the money to. Failure to do so will result in immediate disqualification.

:)

p.s. Pop Quiz: If the plural of crisis is crises and the plural of hypothesis is hypotheses, then why isn’t the plural of penis penes? I mean, vagina is vaginae just like aqua and alumna, right?

p.p.s. I should never have seen the Vagina Monologues… Oy vey!
