I just received the “Your blog is fabulous” award from E-Deconstructed (if that is her real name), and as part of the awards ceremony, I’m supposed to describe 10 reasons why I’m frikking awesome list 5 things I find awesome, so here goes:
String theory: What better way to solve the most complex intricacies of the universe than with a needle and thread and 11 dimensions? (Length, width, height, time, sleepy, dopey, bashful, sneezey, perverty, droopy, snively.) Hey, forget the Beatles and “All we need is love…” bullshit, “All we need is a bunch of twine!”
Apple Cobbler: My favorite person in the world makes a sweet apple cobbler or crumble or whatever it is in techno-cooking speak. She made me a crumble tonight (probably as a pre-bribe for when I rule the world, she wants the lieutenant position. Either that or she wants to fatten me up [more] for market so she can get a few bucks for my head to spend on retro-style containers. It’s not going to work, but I’ll eat that shit up anyways, yum.)
Ninjas: I can’t think of anything cooler than assassins dressed in black clothes that sneak around and kill people. Except assassins in WHITE ninja costumes that sneak around and kill people, because white has GOTTA be hard to wear in the dark and stay hidden.
The number 42: Do you know what a 10-42 is? It’s trucker/cop speak for “end duty”. You know, when truckers say “10-4 over and out”? Yeah, when they’re finished their shift just before they get out of the truck they get on their CB radio and scream “That’s a big 10-42 buddy, over and out!” Cool huh? I bet you weren’t even aware of this subculture. I am, cause I worked in the trucking industry as teenager, so don’t even try and get all 10-74 on me.
Meerkats: Shut up. I like them, so sue me. They’re my favorite animal. I’d train them to pick people’s pockets, they look like they’d form a cohesive little criminal unit given a bit of education.
I’m supposed to pass this on to 5 more people. I hate this part because I’d like to pass it on to everyone on my blogroll because I have handpicked them ALL for glory in the International Poobomber Army and they ALL deserve awards. But I can only pick 5 people. So this time I’m going the brotherly route and only picking dudes because I also hope to have them on my hockey team this winter, so I’m trying to butter them up. (Sorry ladies, the next time I get an award I’ll do some buttering-up for my ringette team and pick only women):
The catch is that they have to come here and see this post. I believe Mr. Scopetech has no idea that I exist because I don’t think I’ve ever commented on his blog, but we’ll see if he finds it. Hee hee, shh, no one tell him.
Mum’s the word. So’s bird, but who cares about that one?
Wow. You caught me! edeconstructed is NOT my real name! *sigh* It’s so nice to finally come out and admit it!
P.S. I think I’ve dated perverty once…but it didn’t work out. He was all hands and peepee
Well, congrats to you Poobomber! Now, I must change my 10-20 because I’m 10-7. Have a great night, and congrats again!
dont go feeling too high about this. I have dozens of awards. I’ve given myself the liberty of making dozens of them and awarding them to myself. Also, my mom give me an award once, but not for my blog, but it doesn’t count.
Congratulations, Poo! (Oh my God, I feel like I’m Tigger. Or, worse, Christopher Robin!)
Hey dude, congrats on your fabulous award! You deserve it! Have a great Day 2 at work! Did you pack your lunch in your Teenage Ninja Turtle lunchbox? Be good and play nice with all the other little girls and boys.
Who are you? Why are you referencing my blog? I am going to have to ask you to cease and desist immediately, I do not want to get lawyers involved.
Hey, thanks Poobomber, for the bling. I will wear it proudly, like that old douche-bag rapper wears a clock around his neck. What was his name, MC Skat Kat?
Dr Zibbs will be pissed you didn’t include him.
That is, unless you already picked him for Goalie (He has asthma and can’t punch very well).
Let’s talk about meerkats. I love them too. My dog (ok, it’s really my sister’s dog) Kaush does this thing where he looks just like a meerkat. We even call it a meerkat. I will send you a pic one day of it – it’s amazing.
Meerkats are beautiful and cute and even the looking like Judd Hirsch thing doesn’t preclude them from that category somehow.
The real question is how the hell can you tumble out of bed at 6am and start writing stuff. I need to jump start my brain before I can even READ.
If someone gave me bluberry cobbler I’d follow them anywhere…
Thanks for the honor, PB! As for my hockey skills, I’d probably be good at unintentionally knocking people over.
I’m good at using the boards to stop myself with, I could never master that cool side scrape stop with the skates. Thanks for admitting me to the army!
What are we gonna name our team, guys?
