Well, I started this contest back on Lowpass, and now that the database issues seem to have been sorted out I feel I can start it officially.

Since we're in the middle of the television sweeps period, the theme for this contest is to illustrate the depths to which networks will sink for ratings. Scandalous TV specials, shocking season finales, whatever you want.

I saved links to all of the images entered on Lowpass on my computer, which I do not have access to (and won't until Monday evening), so feel free to post them again.

Judging will take place Tuesday, unless everything blows up.

Dad was flammable

This can be seen on various religious cable networks in Chicoland...

believe it or not, I'm afraid of the FBI. And echelon.

Uh, I made an entry for this competition, but it may be in bad taste, so I don't want to post it and get flamed.

However, you can find it here.

Although, if you are offended, I DID warn you, so how 'bout you just get off my case, eh?

Dad was flammable

You're right, that was in bad taste...

And yet strangely, I'm not particularly affected by it. Chalk it up to media induced desensitization, I suppose.

Me to. Er, me neither. Then again, I made The 70th Floor.

I will enter this... I've just been a bit busy...

Damn this addictive computer game... oh, and those essay thingies I'm supposed to be writing...

This signature has performed an illegal operation and has been shut down.

Yeah, it's not something I thought of and started pissing myself laughing about. It was just an idea that came to me, and although I thought "that's a bit harsh", there just wasn't anything telling me that I shouldn't go ahead anyway. To be honest, the media has made me hate that bastard Will Young more than bin Laden, he ruined a classic Doors song, that BASTARD!

Dad was flammable

Two words: Will Wheaton

Well yeah, it was harsh... and I didn't really burst out laughing either, but the Osama bin Bellboy image was at least worthy of a little grin.

I suppose the other part of why I wasn't particularly bothered is that you've been around so long that I know you're not just some sorry assed git from across the ocean who bases their entire online persona on how much they hate America.

*Rolls eyes in exaspiration*

Hmmm... you know this reminds me of an idea I had a while back. If I were at all proficient in using Flash or some such other program, I'd make a video featuring people from all the countries of the world (Yes, my own included) singing "Jingo Bells" and place it up online sometime around December.

Go to http://www.somethingawful.com/archives/news-archive-13-9-2001.htm and look for AWFUL WTC MEMORIAL OF THE DAY ---http://www.somethingawful.com/inserts/news/images/destruction.swf

Clearly an attempt to deal with tragedy through the use of humor... retarded humor.

(What the fuck was with the guys who just sort of got swept up in the wind and floated back up into the air, defying the laws of physics, and floated off to the left of the screen?)

I have no idea. If you look at the SA article, it lampoons the whole video and says how "a giant mutated ciggarette" flies into a big toaster and erupts etc etc etc. It's quite funny... er, in a sense of the word.

In better news, I got Photoshop 5 LE! We had a copy laying around, so I'll be back up photoshoping soon.

Aaaaaah! I am dieing!

(From laughter, not bullets)

Shoot, I'm gonna miss the deadline. Now no one will ever see my ad for "Who Wants to Pork a Cheerleader?"

And no one will see my Celebrity Boxing: Martha Stewart vs. the 1979 Raiders.

I am back up Photoshoping now yay!

I'm not sure "paranormal phenomenon" can sustain a whole TV series these days. You probably need more than one.
