For you 'tards out there who would like the rules in non-comic form:

1. Use any pose of any Gabe from kofightclub or pennyarcade. You must use a Gabe at least once. You can use as many Gabes as you want, too.

2. You can use any pose of clango and/or redrobot from dieselsweeties, but you don't have to use either of them if you don't want to. You can use either of them repeatedly if you want.

3. Do not use any props.

4. Use any background you want.

5. One character must say (or think) the name of a vegetable, such as "broccoli." (I hope you all know what vegetables are.) The vegetable name can be used in a sentence, such as "I like the way he rubs broccoli on me."

6. One character must say, "I got 2 words for you:" You supply the 2 words. You can be creative with what constitutes 2 words. Example: "I got 2 words for you: re tard!"

7. Title your comic "Comic Contest #3" followed by whatever you want as an alternate title.

8. The deadline for submitting comics is Thursday 2/15 at 7pm EST (that's Eastern Standard Time, moron).

I wasn't 100% sure that celery was a vegetable, so I did a little research on the web to double-check. In the course of so doing, I found this:

...which is much funnier than it has any right to be.

Subject: Re: Comic Contest #3

Hey evil_d,

Sam the Celery is one bad mama jama. I was a little disturbed with the section "How Celery is Made" though. Celery Slaughterhouses are just wrong.

Well, your self-proclaimed search to find out if Celery was a fruit or vegetable made me go look up gourd for the hell of it. Gourd's a vegetable right? Everyone knows that? Wrong. Gourd's a fruit I found out.

But there's a lesson out there for all the children reading this. Beware of a fruit in vegetable's clothing. Also beware of the tomato, that's one cross dressing fruit/vegetable that no one knows what to call.

And now I leave dejected.

Well, let's hope wirthling doesn't know any better either.
"Vegetable Tourette Syndrome" is a lot funnier than "Fruit Tourette Syndrome", for some reason

Ya, well I'll take my disqualification like a man. Crying and stomping my feet. Also my sole purpose in life now is to rid the world of all gourds. This may hurt the crop market, but righteousness is on my side.

Subject: Re: Comic Contest #3

What the hell did gourds ever do to you? Why don't you pick on someone your own size?

Subject: Re: Comic Contest #3

I have no stomach for gourd sympathizers either.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to put on my headphones, listen to Carmina Burana and gore some gourds.

Subject: Re: Comic Contest #3

I am bravely crawling out of my deathbed (OK, maybe not my deathbed - I have the flu) to perform my obligations here, so if you don't like my pick, then bite me. I know Gabe and ObiJo gave feedback on all the submitted cartoons, but I don't feel up to that right now.

Picking a winner was difficult, especially since none of you offered to blow me. Therefore, I decided I should probably pick the comic I liked best.

The winner is...

evil_d got bonus points for using all 4 major food groups - vegetable, fruit, pasta, and snacks - as well as doing the extra research to verfiy that celery was in fact a vegetable (duh).

So, gourds are not vegetables - they are fruits? Who knew this could be an educational experience?

Stop looking at my pumpkin pie like that, ObiJo...

Subject: Re: Comic Contest #3

Sorry to hear you have the flu, wirthling. I hope that after you recover you don't regret the outcomes of any comic contests you may have moderated while delirious.

Get well soon. Preferably within the next two days so you can contribute to #4. :)

Found this while browsing. It's a legal entry and all, just too late. I'm guessing the author saw the strip that announced the contest, but not this thread. Or the submission deadline given in the strip, evidently. Anyway.
