In the spirit of Christmas giving, and because he switched on the Matt Signal in a comment yesterday…
I am humbly asking a favor of you.
I want you to click on the link that I will provide below, and vote for one of five finalists in the Humor Blogger of the Year contest.
No, it’s not me…I don’t do contests. But, the man I am humping, so to speak, is in it to win it.
See, unlike me, this man has a huge, but fragile ego which constantly needs affirmation and validation. That of course, is nothing with which my humility is familiar.
But…
He asked me to help him out, and since I am a fan of his humor and his blog, I feel compelled to do so.
The man of whom I speak, is none other than VE, of VE’s Fantastical Nonsense.
The main reason I don’t like contests such as these, is because they are just popularity contests with no real consideration as to who is truly “the best.”
One has to constantly beg, plead, and bribe people to go vote for them.
It’s demeaning and time consuming, but VE is just the kinda guy who doesn’t mind wasting time, putting on virtual knee pads, and groveling.
I respect that.
Now don’t just vote for him because I asked you to…That would be unethical. But seriously, the guy is funny.
He is always at least amusing. I mean nobody can hit a comedic home run every time. Well, other than the late Rodney Dangerfield and Sarah Palin.
But, when at his best, he’s a fucking riot. He is truly funnier than the other four. How do I know? Well I checked them out of course.
He is up against a blog titled, Amy Oops! Seriously the chick should rename it, Amy Sucks! Or at least to Amy Co-Ops! Most of her stuff is unoriginal reprints of other peoples’ material.
Then there is Politics By Satire. When I read it, I saw that politics was involved, but I needed a blogoscope to find the satire.
Another contestant, and his closest competitor as of the typing of this, is Crotchety Old Man Yells at Cars. I laughed at his title, but little else.
And finally there is, The Offended Blogger. She has a bit of a following. Her blog is nicely designed, but her humor doesn’t do it for me.
I mean it’s like a plate of comedic spaghetti. Oh sure, you may come across a meatball of laughter once in awhile, but mainly it’s just pasta.
And, she is a bit long winded. If I had to choose between reading one of her posts and all ten books of Milton’s, Paradise Lost…
I’d choose her, only because she has pictures to break up the monotony.
So, if you would, please vote for VE. He did after all, have the balls to put this on his site one day…

If he wins, maybe he’ll get a new sweater.
You can vote for him by clicking HERE. You need not sign-in or anything…Just point and poke. It takes all of three seconds.
Hopefully, once again, weather permitting, I will have pictures of the decorations in downtown Bagwine for you all tomorrow.
Cheers!!

Looks like it is working! V is ahead.....
Cheesy: He moved ahead today. I just want to see a blow out so there are no questions about somebody's chad dangling. He's from your neck of the woods by the way. Cheers Cheesy!!
You are a cruel, cruel man to put my teen VE picture on here! But I thank you for the awesome endorsement and may I crush those cheesy other blogs with the help of your mighty matt-man blog readership power!
Well I did it. I went and voted for VE.
I normally don't do that kind of thing, but I figured if you said it was okay, then I would just this once. And, what the hell, it's Christmas. ;-)
it better actually be a really REALLY funny blog...I would hate to have voted for something lame.
(no offense VE...I do trust mateo)
I checked him out a while back...I think he'll do. Shit, if Phfrankie Bondo has him on his blogroll, there has to be some sort of twisted comedy about the guy.
I'll give him my 2 cent vote!
VE: Anytime VE. Always a pleasure to help out somebody who deserves the award for which they are running. I do however expect payment in the form of four dollars in unmarked yuan. I don't trust the U.S. Dollar any longer. Cheers!!
Jay: I know what you mean. I typically don't either. But he is a funny guy and the voting didn't contain a bunch of bullshit that one had to go through first. By the way, I got alot of requests for Jay clones. Cheers!!
Kat: Don't worry, he's funny. He has some mad photoshop skillz too. Cheers Kat!!
Micky: Yes, I can see him P-Man getting along quite well. Thanks. cheers Mick!!
I was going to run right over and vote simply because you asked, I'm that kinda Gal but you are right, I need to scope it out for myself. Then I hear Phfrankie has him on his blog roll so that is points for him right there and Mic thinks he'll do. I'll scope the scene tonight and vote after. No doubt he will get the nod. I am actually glad you gave him the shout out, I look forwared to more funny. I gotta have funny. Hey you have a splendid day.
Lu: Please do check him out. He can be most amusing. Everyone needs more funny in their life, don't they. You have a splendid day as well, Mizz Lu. Cheers Pal!!
You're a passable pimp.
Songbird: I was wearing a pink fedora and bejeweled cape when I typed this post. Cheers Dear!!
Why did you not link the others chrome-dome prick-boy?
Ve's a keeper indeed.
Hey anon, you wimp! How about having the balls to let us know which one of Ve's non-competition you are? BTW, even if VE wasn't funny, that alone is enough to get people to vote for him as opposed to any other blogs up for consideration. So on his fans behalf, I thank you for being such a hoser.
LMFAO @ Songbird!!!!...But on a serious note, let me just say...ah, hell! who am I kidding?.....
Anonymous: I only link people who are really funny or who are major league assholes. These folks, to me, fit neither category. I'm sorry my actions offended you. Oh and one more thing...Suck It. Cheers!!
Anndi: Ve IS a keeper. And Anonymous is a pussy...or something. Oh well, poilitics, even when humor is involved is a bloodsport. A bloodsport I tellz ya. Cheers Sexy!!
Phfrankie: Ha. It pains you to try and be serious doesn't it? I like that. Cheers P-Man!!
I've poked VE before....
but I'll poke him again since you asked so nicely.
VE is a person in my neighborhood..in my neighborhood... he's in my neighborhood ya...
RLL: That's great, and thanks. Heyyyyyy, wait just a minute...When are you gonna poke me? Cheers Hot Stuff!!
Cheesy: Ha. Are you drunk again? VE is kinda like State Farm...He lives where you live. Cheers Cheese!!
Wow, oh wow. I feel like I'm dead or something with all this VE discusssion. Yeah...he was kinda funny...looking! ha ha
Well matt-man...dedicating an entire post to pimping me...I gotta give you credit...you look after your friends. No wonder you rule the blog commenting world!!! And to all your readers, I thank you all!!!
"just point and poke" - Oh if I had a nickel for every time I've said that!!
I voted
I figured any boy who survived giant hair and lived to have a sense of humor was worth it
VE: HA. Better than asking you for four yuan for my post, I want you to state now, that I get to deliver your eulogy should you die before me.
And hey...One of my few redeeming qualities is my loyalty. Sometimes to a fault, but not in this case. Anytime VE. Cheers!!
Dianne: Ha. Why don't you ever say that to me. I follow instructions well ya know. Purrrr.
And you're right. He does deserve some redemtion for surviving that hair and for what is obviously a Christmas present gone awry. Cheers Di!!
What the hell. I'm always good for a poke.
*wink*
So what does he get if he wins? A certificate? A lifetime supply of gnomes?
Anyway, looks like original content, and for that he deserves to win!
And Matt, you're such a good pimp.
Giggle Pixie: Rowwwwrrrr. I bet you are. Cheers GP!!
Kanani: Originality weighs heavily with me. And thanks, Pimp Matt-Daddy appreciates it. Cheers Kanani!!
When is the deadline? Cause I betcha they'll drop someone like Dooce in there at the end and the minions will all vote.
TB: Nooooo. These are the final five. That's it. But the deadline is Dec. 31st. Cheers!!
got my vote.
I vote for PHFUHKNEE every time, and I like his backers!

Were going to need a catalog pretty soon to keep track of your self appointed titles.
They all do seem to fit! LOL
Dice: It's good to be pfhunkie and pfhunnie. Cheers Dice!!
Bond: Thank ya Vin. Cheers and Boo Yah!!
Micky: Ha...I never thought of that but I think you're right. Cheers Mick!!
Anything to get the guy a new sweater. I had the same one when I was his age, I just had the good sense to give to the Salvation Army...
I voted cause Matt said so =)
Dude, I *LIKE* Milton!
Damn there a lot of humor bloggers out there. I never knew. Thanks for the link Matt-man.
I wonder if VE knows Mr. Rogers wants his sweater back?
I voted. I'm taking your word for the fact that the others aren't as funny and I'll spend more time with VE when I have it. :)
Hey VE, looks like your in over here in Bagwine. Don't take this lightly, Matt-man is not as easy, as he wants you to believe he is.
You better win this cheesy prize your after or Matt-Man might set Hoot after your ass, and he just might hang you.
No doubt with a little spice, he could pull Doggy back to smash pomegranates all over your face.
Anyway, it looks like you got all our votes, so for a better and healty future, you sure as hell better come through.
Mike: How can you not want to help VE update his wardrobe? Cheers Mike!!
Hoot: The worse thing is, is that he probably looked hip back then. Thanks and Cheers!!
Starr: Oh Milton is okay. Thanks for punching your chad. Cheers Starr!!
Lu: You're welcome...Does this mean you're leaving me? Cheers Lu!!
PP: Hey there. I bet Mr. Rogers gave him the damn thing. Cheers!!
Marilyn: Thank ya. And I understand the damn time issue. Cheers!!
Micky: Good Man. Add pressure to the ill-dressed man. Cheers Mick!!
You know me, I've never met a chad I didn't wanna punch!
Starr: Bada Bing!! Cheers!!
I just realized something.... VE looks like a guy I went to high school with! Murry?? Is that YOU!?!? LOL
Cheesy: Ha. Does anyone name their kids Murray anymore? Cheers Cheese!!
You forget I am old....
Cheesy: Pffffft. You're still hot!! Cheers!!
Matt
That was incredibly rude of you.
grow up.
Amy
HAHAHAHAHAH!
Oh man, that made my morning.
