Things BlueIris Can Do To Improve Her Chances of Winning a DUzy Award:

[BlueIris]

Post your suggestions here.

1. You find awesome, wonderful poems.

I know there are some really good sarcastic or satiracle poems out there. Do you have any?

Imagine if we all commented with similar sarcastic wit. :P



or, a Punny poem, and people are only allowed to comment using puns! :7


The only problem I see is that poem threads get glossed over, and some people read so little poetry that they might not catch the satire, or catch the puns.
:shrug:

[BlueIris]

12. I'm trying to find some funny poems.

I pushed a lot of the funny ones back to the list I want to post in February, though, when things are going to get really dark in the poem threads.

[ThomCat]

15. I think I'm odd in that I really like the dark ones.

Some people find horror movies cathartic (which I just find boring). I like the personal, revealing glimpses into how people understand and cope with life. Different darkness for different people, I guess. :)

[BlueIris]

17. Somehow, I just have this...feeling that the ones for February will resonate with you, then.

And cathartic is definitely a good way to describe them.

2. Check last week's DUzy awards to see if she's already a winner?

;)

[BlueIris]

9. I did. Totally didn't win anything.

And I posted some of my funniest comments ever here last week!

[Fire Walk With Me]

20. That's too bad! I hope that you win one or two next week.

[KitchenWitch]

22. You did too!

23. Okay, I guess that's...kinda like a DUzy.

[Arugula Latte]

3. Suck up to JeffR.

Works for me. :)

[BlueIris]

10. Tried. S/he didn't go for it.

[flvegan]

4. Unleash the snark and sarcasm

The more over the top, the better.

[Midlodemocrat]

5. Nice post, Oprah.

I thought this was a progressive site.

[flvegan]

7. Hush, you.

I'm trying to get a DUmmy of the Year nomination.

I haven't gotten a single one yet. :cry:

[LeftyMom]

8. Yeah, but they do think you're a closeted gay man and into dog fighting.

Don't get too wrapped up in how they choose to hate you, just be glad that they do. being hated by all the right people is a good sign that you're making wise choices.

[BlueIris]

11. But, but I do! Like, everyday!

Why do I not have a damn DUzy by now???

[DarkTirade]

18. If that were true I'd have DUzies up the wazoo.

Which actually sounds rather painful, come to think of it... I don't think I WANT DUzies up there.

[flvegan]

21. I'd nominate THAT for a DUzy.

[DarkTirade]

24. ... I'd nominate your MOM for a DUzy...

Yeah, that's the best I got. :P

[Richard Steele]

6. Observe Republicans, then tell people what they do.

That's some funny shit right there!

[DarkTirade]

13. Work on those investigative journalism skills.

Dig up some dirt on your fellow DUers, then write exposes. :evilgrin:

Failing that, naked pictures are always entertaining. They don't even have to be of you. :)

[BlueIris]

14. Ah, I see how it is.

So, the DUzy Award winners have just been sending JeffR naked pics of themselves? ...egh. I look good naked, but I don't think I want to start using that to achieve anything.

Then again...

[DarkTirade]

16. Like I said... it doesn't have to be you.

Although if you need to test and see if the pics are good enough quality, I'm a fairly good judge... :P

[Dr. Strange]

19. Try being MrCoffee.

He's a DUzy whore! (In a good kind of way.)

[Drum]

25. One word: topless

;-)

26. Zen, baby, Zen

do not chase the butterfly; let the butterfly come to you.
