You see, the proprietor of Thought Nuggets sent in some samples early in the contest, and well, one of the entries just sort of stuck with me, as I am sure the actual event stuck with(and to) the person involved.
To put it mildly, it is a bad sex story. Of course, this isn't a small papercut to your finger bad. No, this is bad way up on the scale. I mean horrific. Like "burning multicar accident in the middle of a snowstorm and in the trunk of one of burning wrecks is a nuclear bomb set to go off in 2 minutes" bad. Now, rereading that description, it does seem to be a particularly apt analogy for the whole situation. We probably all have an embarrassing story or three in our past, but I think this one takes the cake... and none of us would want that cake back after this story.
I'm scarred for life... but in a good way. It is an old yarn, but it was new to me as I would remember reading that story before. Therefore, in light of both my disgust and awe of that story, I award Thought Nuggets the Homer Simpson Transmundanity Award.
Congratulations, and I see you vying for a few more in the future.
The relevant coding is available here.
The rules of this little contest: Every week I will be selecting one blog post that I have seen from the vast reaches of the blogosphere to bestow with the Homer Simpson Transmundanity Award for being one of the freakiest(in a funny way) things I've seen or read during a 7 day period. It doesn't necessarily have to have been written during the week, I just had to have encountered it. That means that if you find something interesting and repost it like a movie or whatever, if I saw it at your blog first, you get the prize. Of course, creating your own content is also a very good way to win.
Now, if you see a post that you think is worthy of this illustrious prize, just drop me a line at campybeaver@gmail.com and we'll see if we can't get your suggestion up and award-ready while giving you some credit and a link to your own blog.
