Thank goodness I finally entered a low-participation comic contest so I could win. 8)

Okay, so now I have to make up rules, right? How about five rules.

1) For this contest, the comic has to have two panels which have the same background and use the same characters. The characters don't have to be in the same pose... e.g. if you use Maura1-2 in one you can use Maura4-1 in the other; but they do have to be in the same position, as in left/right of the panel. The other panel has to have a different background and different characters. I'll post some examples from my back files in the next post.

2) Somewhere in the comic you have to mention a color and use a non-English word.

3) No one is allowed to mention the name of other LowPass strippers in your comic entry. I don't dig on inside jokes... especially since I don't get them.

4) Gabe Billings CAN win this contest, but only if he follows the rules and is funnier than everyone else.

5) Entrants have to withdraw from their current religion and worship me as their one and only true god.

Judging will be done whenever I feel like it, which will probably be sometime Thursday (4/12).

Here are some examples of possible entries for the contest, except that they don't mention a color or foreign word. But this is what I mean by two panels using the same characters & background and the remaining one using another.

For some reason which is beyond me, that seems to have posted three of the same comic. ;P Just follow the URLs above the comics if you still don't get the rules and want more examples.

The devil is in the details.

Just a reminder: the panel with the different background/characters doesn't have to be the third... it can be the first or second.

Judging this is going to be a bitch; now I wish I spoke more languages...

When Johnny updated the message boards, he made them so you could only post a single comic at a time. If you try to do more than one (like you did), they all default to the first comic.

Such is life.

This one came to me in an entire 2 seconds of thought.

Actually, rule #5 isn't really a RULE per se... it's more of a guideline for healthy living and spiritual well-being.

A little lean on the foreign words, but I figure "Kilimanjaro", "kung fu", and a mangled attempt at "parlez vous" are enough to qualify me. Plus, I managed not one but two colours. :)

My apologies for the overdone Springer reference, but I liked the idea and figured it was different enough from the usual ones...

This is either comedic genius or not. And that's just another example of me taking the hard stance on an issue. So please vote me your Federal Cow Tipper.

I prayed for divine guidance from our lord and savior Scyess, and this is what His Righteous Spirit, or perhaps sleep deprivation, hath wrought:

That last phrase was what Babelfish gave me when it converted "What a pansy." to Spanish, but when I translated back, I got "What thought". So I have no idea what it actually means.

This age a competition one in such a way more less of the one than lame. Now that we all in convert them the adoração of Scyess, us we can start a church and be free of the taxes! Same E that I cannot say the German, I have an idea joust of that Penisvacumpumpe is.

ObiJo, " violate red mine butt soft with one herring " is full a rollback of the phrase, but " harder and deeper " this extra mile is going really.

Some people use Babelfish, I use The Zompist Phrasebook.

I didn't expect I'd have to be judging a bunch of polyglots. ;P And to think I wasted all my time studying non-Romance languages.

I think it's an unofficial tradition here to spew a blurb about each comic that was entered, so here it goes.

boorite: You seem to have gotten the most quotability points. 8) I wonder how many baboons world wide have been felched by LowPass regulars since you posted that comic.

descolada99b: When I translated the German to English it didn't help much in my understanding the comic, although it did yeild the phrase, "This hope does not jsut I of somebody private turns these gust lakes colour of the Gruens." There should be a prize just for that.

fishoutofbeer: That was a very creative way to wave rule #3 back in my face. I thought it was a clever play on words and an amusing comic in general. You lose.

NeoVid: I like this comic. I like any comic where I'm worshiped... even if I do have to blue some cajones.

DexX: I've never seen Springer done in an African setting before. That's probably what it would be like, though.

ObiJo: The translation of the first pannel in Babbelfish was "Please violate my tender end..." much more amusing than "manrape." 8)

wirthling: You've played upon my weakness: comedic pedanticism. I thought that one was bloody hilarious.

Big Evil Dan: In an attempt to prove to the world the "default" thing hasn't been overdone, I think you proved the opposite. No matter. At least you were the only one to use Spanish.

bunnerabb: I will go to my grave wondering what "Are you stupidly deaf, or? Hands on your heading!" means.

evil_d: "Do your conk, you have it birth?" I love Babbelfish. The great thing is it actually translated something into "conk."

Well, it was hard to judge this one. The finalists were NeoVid, DexX, and wirthling. I'm tempted to make you all do Comic Contest XXII together. But I won't do that. Instead I'll choose, um...

WIRTHLING

In the end, the pedanticism got to me; I couldn't resist. Thanks for playing, y'all.

Allow me to translate my lame ass, non-l337 comic:

[French] "Nice shirt. Wanna fuck?"
[German] "What do you mean by that? Are you insulting me?"
[German] (After the horrible beating and the cops arrive) "Are you stupid, or deaf? Hands on your head!"

So....

Do I win now?

wirthling wins a lot, man. Really. He wont mind.

Ah, bugger.

Love,

bunner

Damn you, Scyess. That's the last time I pick you as a winner....

It makes me want to choke when I say it, but everyone is on the money. Wirthling's comic was pretty fucking amusing. I, of course, was responsible for his winning since I chose to opt out of this contest (i.e. I thought the judging would happen later on and I missed the deadline.)

Had I entered, my comic would have been so funny most of you probably would have died laughing. Or at the very least shit yourself. So you all owe me the cost of a pair of pants. Except for ObiJo, who was probably reading the comics naked again. Or wearing his wife's underwear.

I feel bad for the polyglots who decided to take rule #2 to the extreme. The fact is, though, I can only judge on what I can read, which is Engish (at a 2nd grade level). Those who posted entries I couldn't read except by Babbelfish should've anticipated that. ;>

And yes, I got the bit about the penis pump. It's the punchline I didn't get. Sorry. 8) (By the way, that number doesn't work.)

As for wirthling... I'm sorry I had no choice but to select you the winner, but who entered the bloody contest in the first place?

Hey, Jael has a picture on her webpage of a guy in a kilt fucking an inflatable sheep. And I thought I was the only one into that kind of thing.

There's a picture of her with a Vanilla Ice look-alike, too.
