It's Snoozebob day!

UPDATE:SnoozeBob day is over, y'all. Thanks for all who played along. I'll hand out points tomorrow for those deserving.

Y'all remember Snoozebob, right?

Snoozebob comes around when I am especially lazy am so burdened by other committments that I can't attend to my normal bloggish duties and he throws the doors open for y'all to abuse the snooze guest post. It's easy as pie. Just go here and log in with username and password "snoozebob".

The door will be open until tomorrow morning. You can post just about whatever you want as long as it isn't spammy or overtly francophilish. There are a couple of things to remember though:

  1. Don't do something so stupid that I or one of my proctors will have to ban your ass.

  2. Put your name in there so we know who wrote what. In the title is the best place, as a header or in closing work too.

  3. If you have a blog don't forget to whore it out here include a link.

  4. For the category, please choose "SnoozeBob".

Enjoy!

(This post will stay at the top as long as open posting is enabled.)

POINTS: When I close guest posting I'll hand out some points based on which posts I thought were the funniest/most meaningful/bestest. It might be in categories or an overall list - not sure at the moment.

Caption winners

Remember this picture?


(Click for biggie size)

Even though I'm most of a week late, winners have indeed been selected. Look on the bright side; when I'm late with one of these it gives more people a chance to participate!

First place (5 points): The social worker approached the shirtless boy. "Just take one more step, pretty boy..."
Simon

Second place (3 points): There was so much pee in the kiddies pool that even the water pistol turned yellow.
Spirit Fingers

Third place (1 point): "This is my rifle, this is my gun..."
diamond dave

Okay, so I'm pretty loose on my definition for "caption". It comes down to what tickles my funny bone.

Bloggers say the strangest things.

And they say them about me! A few days ago I asked readers to come up with quotes for me and/or my blog. The winners are:

1st Place (5 points): Your blog is like whoa. I could eat it with a spoon. -Spirit Fingers

2nd Place (3 points): Jim makes me want to hit the snoozebutton a few times a day. -Tiffani

3rd Place (1 point): Blogger I'd most like to see naked. -Emma

Honorable Mention: Ha...I have never said one nice word about you...terrible, even more terrible than I usually am... -Ilyka

Those and a couple others are now up on the sidebar under the new "People love this place" section. The "Best Of" has been moved into this section as well.

Enjoy!

Over there

There's a new entry at Protomonkey and damn is it good. It involves partial nudity and severe pain!

Special points bonus: Name the source for the title of the Protomonkey post and get 2 points. Answers in this post please - Protomonkey itself is a points free zone. Don't forget - no searching for the answer. Thanks!

If you want to be advised whenever a points offer goes up send me an email. I had to take the subscription form off of the sidebar because some jackass was putting in fake email addressess.

You talkin' about me?

Why not? I'm going to put up a sidebar portion with things people have said about me and/or my blog(s). Here are some examples:

A new high point in the politics of victimization. Or is that low point? Well, it's a point, anyway.
-Instapundit

OH MY GOD. That site is yours? You are fucking AMAZING!
-Everyday Stranger

I love it!! Your style is fantastic and you're very funny
-Rachel Lucas

I'm handing the "king twisted" crown to you.
-Harvey Olson

You may as well change the name snoozebuttondreams.com to glennreynoldsismybitch.com because he's that good.
-Jen

So dig out those cool pithy things you wrote about me the first time you (in trembling amazement at my wit and insight) linked to Snooze Button Dreams (or one of my other blogs) or make up something completely new. Originality is cool, so is creativity.

Whatever quotes get used will be linked so you get a little bonus there. I'll also get the 2004-2005 Points season cranked up by throwing out a couple handfuls of points for the good ones.

At long last! The final standings for the 2003-2004 Snooze Points season!

Awards are way, way down at the bottom of the extended entry of the post. Sort of like the way they save Best Picture for last.



The last points awarded were for comments on this post and the pictures therein. The most definitive (and frightening) picture bears reposting:
Die! Die! Die!

The winning entries
1st place (5 points): Helen with "Social services intervened when it was revealed a local couple made their children fight to the death, all for the prize of just being able to wear a shirt."
2nd place (3 points): Emma with "Whatever doesn't kill them before they are ten will be a fine personality trait when they are 30."
3rd place (1 points): Simon with "No children were harmed in the production of this story."

Emma gets honorable mention and a bonus point for offering to babysit the spawn my kids. Victor gets a point for his excellent impersonation of a French politician. more...
