Week 41: Pageant of the Transmundane

Ah, another week full of oddity and downright bewildering weirdness on the net. And with so many choices, I guess it all comes down to which strange thing I liked the most, which is always a great position to be in when it comes to award season.

So what captivated me this week?

Well, a blog called Stupid Random and Hilarious caught my eye, with one article in particular catching my eye.

It seems that a bar in Germany has come up with a rather unique way of skirting anti-smoking laws, and well, I admire the brilliance of the scheme. It is both rudimentary and yet innovative, and in a way, completely stupid as well, which is quite the trifecta if I may say so myself.

And of course, since this week's winner involves both smoking and a bar, well, an image of Homer smoking a cigar at Moe's(a bar which could charitably be called a hole in the wall) seems most appropriate for the Homer Simpson Transmundanity Award this time around.



Congratulations to Kaileena Suza for finding this oddity.



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.
