MBDM 2012 - Heat 12

[strawman]

Yeah, I made that up.

I thought we agreed that only unknown facts would be permitted. Bo, what'd you do with the rulebook?

[Mikes]

Fair enough: It's not known that primates only see in black and white.

[StalinSays]

After some cursory Googling, I rule (based on current science): [A] Che sees color like a human and is thus susceptible to the shocking pinkness, and Flamingoliath has hollow bones (he still weights 6 tons though, but yeh them stalks is brittle). I completely encourage this type of hair splitting.

Random, head-scratching aside: Che Guerilla represents our 6th official communist Mega Beast (Squid Marx, Squid Viscous, Big Boris, Bigger Boris, Red Panda). So yeh... Flamingoliath isn't the only pinko around here. We're all cheating on America in our imaginations.

Whole lotta love for Flamingoliath on the facebook. Gurellia boosters, be wary of the potentially invisible voting block. http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid= ... e=1&ref=nf

I've tried rallying people I know of facebook and have come to one of two conclusions:

• - I don't know as many people as I thought I did.
  - Those I do know hate me.

[StalinSays]

Ha. Wrangling facebook friends = herding cats.

At least yours made it to the right place to comment - every time I share I write: click the picture, write a name. All I get are likes and comments on the link.

[Mikes]

OK, new approach:

Supportes of Slaying Mantis, Sucker-Paunch, and yes,Jynx de Lynx. Hear me now, lend me your ears! Your contenders are all fine specimens, truly fit of the term mega beast, but their race has been run. In any other contest they would have romped home. Mantis would stand atop a mound of severed appendiges, Jynx would have defended her woodland home from all encrouchers, and Sucker Paunch would... be oozing, I suppose.

But now is not their time. Only one can win this round, and fate has decreed it will be Che or... some big flamingo. Look into your hearts. Look into the future! Is it pink? Is it hollow-boned and stand on Sarah-Jessica Parker-esque legs? Or is it hard, driven by its iron convictions and packing enough heat and muscle to make anyone want to watch 80s Schwarzenegger movies?

I ask you to rethink your vote. Mantis, Lynx and Paunch cannot win, but they can still make a difference.

Just ask youself; is the future pink, or is it red?

[cinnamon]

Nice try. No dice.

[tbaker2500]

Pink is the new Black. Plus, didn't you know that women make up 51% of the voting public? And it's a fact that all women love pink!

[Mikes]

Way to alienate all women with generalisations, Tom, am I right, sisters?

Vote che.

[cinnamon]

I'm unclear why you think this bickering is going to sway anyone's loyalty to her obviously superior candidate, but carry on. I like watching you monkeys dance.

[strawman]

Sucker Paunch is a RINO (Reptile in name Only). If you nominate him, he cannot possibly compete with the oozing slipperiness to come in the general election.

I don't know which is more shocking: women voting, or pink replacing black!

--EDIT--
I feel obligated to put this edit in; the next Dribble I'm sending in is my friend Samantha and I reading that story about a woman sent to trial for not cooking dinner and I'd hate for people to think I'm really sexist

[Mikes]

Ha. Wrangling facebook friends = herding cats.

Well someone managed it.

I'm throwing the towel in. If creativity, playing fast with the truth, plain making things up and (failing all that) logical agurment can't match a high facebook friends count I don't know what can.

I've said it once and I'll say it again; democracy does not work.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to key Mark Zuckerberg's car...

I think you've achieved the perfect success of this thing we call MBDM; you've entertained us mightily. I don't really give a rats ass about Che vs Pinko, but you've written some damn entertaining arguments!

[Mikes]

Now the sore loser in me is confused

Revisit me re: Painguin.
I eventually came to realize the only purpose of this competition is entertainment. And you've provided some great entertainment, so you're a winner! (Insert manly hug here)

[angagaur]

yess, Yess. The first heartbreaking upset of the season. Cry, Che supporters, weep. Your tears only fuel Flamingoliath's victory!
Now, excuse me while I go wrangle in even more facebook votes. MuHahahaha!

[tbaker2500]

Watch out for this one, he can be amazing effective at wrangling votes from, well, computer labs.

[cinnamon]

Like I said, I need more minions.

I'm still going to key Zuckerberg's car. You can't stop me.
