Your results may vary.

What do they say at the Oscars? It was enough to just be nominated. Right. ;)

I meant no hyperbole in the title thread. This wasn't a popularity contest...I mean who DOESN'T like Griff, or Glatt, or Ali (etc and so on) but who would you completely literally erect a shrine to? You'd have to be completely enamoured of a Cellarite to erect a shrine; you'd also have to be stalkish.

For the second part of the assignment, I would like you to post photos of the actual shrines you have erected in your home.

Thanks for the responses. This was fun! :p

glatt 05-23-2007 08:21 AM

I didn't vote because I don't worship anyone here and I don't think we need popularity contests. I could have voted for myself if I felt the need to have more than a zero.

Having said that, I think there are some really cool people here. This topic comes up every once in a while. I think there are about 50-75 core Dwellars who make this place what it is. All of you are great. Some haven't been here much lately. People like Jaguar, lookout, Maggie, slang, mrnoodle. Just because they don't post every day doesn't mean they aren't part of the place. And where the hell is Nothing But Net?

Shawnee123 05-23-2007 08:28 AM

It wasn't supposed to be a popularity contest. It was supposed to be funny.

Sigh...

I suck at thread starting.

monster 05-23-2007 08:41 AM

Just to totally finish screwing this thread -shouldn't the question be "To which cellar dwellar......" :p :lol:

Shawnee123 05-23-2007 08:46 AM

:D lol...yep! Now I REALLY suck!

Shawnee123 - I did think it was funny.

I was making a joke, too. I was just going to write:

This thread makes me feel a little bit sad - no, not for the people who didn't make the list, that's not so bad - but for those who did but still have a lonely little zero sitting by their name.
But then I had too much Coke from LabRat's magic cup and wrote a bunch of other junk because that was the only way to stop the voice in my head.

It reminds me of an old Elayne Boosler bit about single people buying Campbell's Soup for One, etc. She said it's the loneliest little can on the shelf. Boy can I relate! :p

The last poll I started was about how you felt towards people with opinions not like yours. I used chocolate and vanilla ice cream as the example of differing opinions. The thread turned into an ice cream flavor thread.

Yes, because he's a zero.

Shawnee123 05-23-2007 10:16 AM

A damn hawt zero (did I say that out loud?) :rolleyes: :bolt:

HungLikeJesus 06-07-2007 05:06 PM

Well, the poll is closed and it looks like UT has become a NUMBER ONE MAN, followed closely by MIA Brianna with 6 votes. Now here's Shawnee to tell you what you've won...

Shawnee?

Shawnee123 06-07-2007 05:28 PM

(cue theme music)
Shawnee: Thanks Hung (cheesy smile.)
(turns to camera) Thanks to ALL of you who participated. You know, people don't think about what happens behind the scenes (cue slowed down theme music) Yet, there are hundreds of people who make this happen every day. From the guy behind the camera, to the lady who makes sure the green room fridge is stocked: they are all important to this process. Yes, important to us, right Hung?

(camera swings to Hung)

Hung: That's right, Shawnee! And it all comes together on this very...special...night. (Hungs wipes tear from eye.)

Shawnee: I know Hung, it's hard not to get a little choked up. OK, without further adieu, I would like to present to you The Cellar You Would Most Likely Erect A Shrine In Your Own Home To, for 2007...the winner is UNDERTOAD.

(Crowd goes wild. UT sits, teary-eyed and humble as his friends and family crowd around him, patting him on the back, hugging and kissing him.)

Shawnee: You know, it's an honor just to win, but let's face it: the prize part ain't so bad either (winks) UT, here is your prize, chosen especially for you:

(drum roll)

Shawnee: It's a BRAND NEW candy bar!!! But wait! We're going to throw in a life-size carboard cutout of lumberjim, a whale penis, and a make a monkey walk device. You deserve it, you deserve it all, Undertoad.

Thank you all for coming. Good night, and have a great year!

(Run theme music and closing credits)

HungLikeJesus 06-07-2007 06:33 PM

But Shawnee, we thought that you were the prize.

xoxoxoBruce 06-07-2007 07:18 PM

Gotta win three years in a row to get her.

Undertoad 06-07-2007 07:18 PM

Thank you, thank you, I... what do you mean it's over?

It says that the poll is closed.

lumberjim 06-08-2007 12:44 AM

i voted for brianna with 6 of my sock puppets, tying her with UT. when jinx found out, she voted for tony to put him in front.

i think tha's fookin hysterical......if i hadnt wasted my own vote on myself, i could have made it a tie. foiled by my wife again. she really does ground me, you know..i'd be in jail or in charge of some government without her....i just know it.

Trilby 06-08-2007 07:07 AM

why does jinx hate me? is it because...well, because I don't speak with that ridiculous accent, like she does?

DucksNuts 06-08-2007 07:22 AM

Hate? Are you fucking kidding me? I love you like a sister ya stupid bitch.

But which accent are you referring to? My Canadian friends say I sound like a NJ gangster. My NY and CA (and NC come to think of it) friends mock how I say "yeah". Apparently we say yeeeah in PA.

lumberjim 06-08-2007 08:21 PM

get in my belly.

I KNEW you'd have an accent! You sound like wolf and bruce and tony---like yer from Philly! Ya Phillys, ya.

xoxoxoBruce 06-09-2007 01:12 AM

Not me, I don't sound like I'm from Philly because I'm not.

Aliantha 06-09-2007 01:15 AM

I think it's amazing how many different accents there are in the US. We do have slight variations from area to area here, but nothing even close to what you lot have over there. Not in my opinion anyway.

Same with the poms.

xoxoxoBruce 06-09-2007 01:18 AM

MA alone has five distinct accents and the people on the borders of those five areas have sub-accents.

freshnesschronic 06-09-2007 01:22 AM

Mid westerners don't have an accent, I don't think?
Except though from Minnesota, which really isn't Mid West.
But us Chicagoans pronounce it "Chicaaaaaaaaaaahhhhgo" not "Chi COH go.
Other than that we represent how most American television and movie actors portray a neutral American accent or lack there of.

Aliantha 06-09-2007 01:26 AM

fresh, it's still an accent, even if it is a bland version of some of the more 'decorative' accents around the place.

freshnesschronic 06-09-2007 01:30 AM

True. Verbally we are bland, us in the corn fields.
Ever heard a mid westerner say "We're going to the bar, wanna go with?"
Non mid westerner: "...with what?"
Mid westerner: "With..."
Non: "??"

piercehawkeye45 06-09-2007 08:12 AM

The Minnesota accent is funny. I have the bland midwesterner accent.
