I am a weenie.

I could (and sometimes do) submit slogans every day, but most of them would be awful. I see one bomb and I compulsively have to delete it. So I'm going to try and skew an extra little piece of effort from quantity to quality for this, my weenified attempt to join martian's challenge:

52 new, permanent slogans by the end of the year, all with scores I consider high enough to fight off erasure. The ones that at least make it through the first 25 votes will end up in this blog. Some weeks may have more hopefuls than others, and some slogans may have an unfortunately delayed demise and get crossed off the blog list.

Can I do it? Probably not; I'm pretty lazy and get discouraged easily.
Do you care? Probably not; you're most likely being distracted by the latest fine episode of Chuck.

Still, let's get started. Help out with the voting wherever you feel morally obligated to do so!

DUDE.

How did I miss your slogans? I just voted 'em all up; I don't think I put a "no" on even one of them.

The one about the voices in your head telling you to burn things or crochet was a toughie, though... I knit. :D
Maltzmania
Maltzmania on Dec 11 '08 at 11:40am
i would very much like to wear the alarm slogan.
Larlar
Larlar on Dec 11 '08 at 11:51am
bcrider - Thank you so much! I'll do my best to one day come up with something about knitting so I can include you in my insanity.

Maltz - That slogan is starting to bug me. I already used the word "ruin" in another one, so I wanted to delete it and re-submit it with "wreck," but it was doing well enough that I figured I had to leave it alone. And I know nobody else would ever even want to care about something that seems so trivial, but I still really want to change it.

I have perfectionistic OCD.

All about me

Thanks, Jess, for this awesome fake type tee.

Addy: lawrencep99 at gmail
MSN: same thing at hotmail

I live in Vancouver.
I have an affinity for ducks and thunderstorms.
I am the world's largest biological repository of TV and movie references.
I am probably lazier than you.

If you give me STPs and want me to know, tell me in one of my blogs or some place I'll see it. I'm tired of making blogs trying to find out who was nice enough to throw the latest set my way, especially since most of them fail. For those of you who have never told (or will never tell) me, I do still thank you. You all get a coupon for one free oversized anonymous hug.

Received STPs freely from (woo!):
-lemonalle
-outline
-SheriB626
-AWorldApart (x2!)
-whisper in water
-Nodus
-nintechno
-a whole bunch of mystery people who are as awesome as they are annoyingly anonymous

I'll pay you back one day, bolded people (unless there are no bolded people left in that list, and then I went ahead and transcended time). In the meantime, just wait patiently and be all boldy n' shit.

Temporary update: I have currently paid everyone back! Woo!

To get STPs:
-be really awesome
or
-be a generous benefactor and use this link, and I will inevitably force myself to reciprocate through the Kindess Act of 1869
