We did things a little differently this week. Your nominations were all deserving, but sadly I had to winnow it down to six. I hope you'll enjoy them and know, if you didn't win, that you're still wonderful and valid. Just not quite as wonderful and valid as the winners. Once you're done reading these, please go back and click on that Tokio Hotel picture. I'm trying to get them household name status here in the States.

  • From "LolCat" in Bernie Ward's Illegal IM Transcript: "I'm the best commenter who ever lived! Don't you guys think I'm soooo hilarious? This is like the time Spinderella said something really hilarious but not as hilarious as the stuff I say!" [This rings very true with me.]
  • From ellagood in You're Going to Get Burned: "i had the pleasure of meeting julia at fashion week. of course, she had no idea she was meeting me, which made it all the more delightful."
  • From exciting young upstart VirusWithShoes in There Are No Chicks on YouTube: "It might just come down to the fact that women, generally, have more fucking sense than men. And if I had tits, I wouldn't be spending time watching roller-skating cockatoos trip over mentos-filled babies or whatever shallow-end-of-the-fucking-gene-pool-video is enrapturing the globe in it's comedic high-jinks currently doing the rounds. No. I'd be at home, PC switched off, and I'd be playing with my tits and feeling good with myself, and the world in general. Everything comes down to tits, eventually. The gap between the Theory of Relativity and quantum theory? Tits. Blue States or Red? I say "tits". Arab or Israeli? Tits, tits, tits. I have a dream. Of tits. "
  • From MisterHippity in The Comminations: "I nominate "WHAT YOUR FRIENDS ARE UP TO" for this one: 'Make friends: Next time you see a comment that's brilliantly illuminating and life-changing, click the 'Follow Commenter' icon next to it.' Oh, man! That one made me giggle till the frappucino came out my nose!"[This was nominated by the great AndSheSaid, who you should all thank because she sends lovely, detailed nomination emails and really cares about you. So buy her a Coke or something.]
  • From Clarence Rosario in This Changes Everything: "Holy shit. What the fuck have I been doing all day?" [Sigh.]
  • From Scroll_Lock in Remebering Abercrombie's Soft Smut: "The best part of the catalog is that the last page included a cigarette for the reader."

Brilliant work all. I promise I'll help you pick next week. If you'll still have me.
