The "Garden & Gun" Nintendo Giveaway: You pick the winner, because I'm too much of a pussy
THE PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN: WE HAVE A WINNER!!!
With 18% of the vote (which doesn't sound like a lot, but keep in mind the vote was divided between 10 contenders, and some were very strong contenders), the winner is:
"Garden & Gun: Keeping the Pansies Off Your Lawn (Brought To You By The Religious Right)" from Wonderspot!
Congrats to her, and sincere thanks to everyone who participated. This was a lot of fun, and it definitely helped to lift my spirits!
. . . . .
So! You probably noticed that we had a crapload of submissions for the "Garden & Gun" giveaway (nearly 200, in fact! SHAZAM!), the vast majority of which I would characterize as FREAKING HILARIOUS. Sweetney readers, YOU COMPLETE ME. The submissions were so awesome in fact that I feel one woman (see: ME) shouldn't -- nay, COULDN'T -- be allowed to choose the winner alone. So, yeah, I'm basically totally pussing out and asking you guys to make my decision for me. LET THE PEOPLE DECIDE, SAYS I. ALL HAIL DEMOCRACY AND SHIT! (Though of course The People are going to have to select from what *I* deem to be the Top 10 submissions -- let's not get all crazy with the democracy crap here.) (You are, after all, on a site whose tagline for years was "This is not a democracy, this is a ROCKTATORSHIP.") (I know -- you're all in awe of my flaming awesome, aren't you?)
Plus I have a sinus infection and would really really like to go lay down for a while. So.
Here's the rules, listen up:
1. Pick your favorite of the below listed submissions and vote for it;
2. I have hidden the submissions on the original post, so no one can match the submissions here to a submitter (unless you have a good memory, which I don't, so whatevs);
3. If yours is one of the submissions selected below, I would ask that you NOT go on some kind of vote-grubbing campaign. Let's all play fair and let the untainted will of The People be heard (AGAIN with The People! GAH);
4. Relatedly, I set this here poll up to allow you to vote only once. I don't doubt that there are ways you could get around that if you really wanted to, but again, let's play fair like big adult-type people, shall we?;
5. This poll will only be open for the next 24 hours, and will close promptly at 9AM ET tomorrow morning, with the winner announced shortly thereafter, so be quick like the bunnies!
Send any questions/concerns to me at sweetney @ sweetney.com, and I'll get back to you as soon as my head stops throbbing as though it were filled with 100% PURE HATING TRACEY SERUM.
Ready? GO!
