Blunt Wit

Absurd musings on life, the universe and nothing

Why me?

Posted by JD On September - 11 - 2009

Dear BC,

So the good folks at Blogcatalog are offering a moochers pass to Blogworld and New Media Expo for the person who is most worthy.

I am here to state my case as to why it should be me. Unlike the previous winner, I am not good looking woman nor can I sing worth a darn. I do, however, have a distinct advantage over other wannabes. I am mentally deranged. Not dangerously so. I just have five other personalities inhabiting my wiry frame.

Thus, I am both more fun to be with and a great bargain in these hard economic times.

By sending me, the folks at BC will be sending six fascinating individuals to a single bloggie event for the price of one. Hell, that’s like killing SIX birds with one stone. Hoo-rah!

By sending me, BC is essentially performing a public service. Bloggers are ALWAYS on the lookout for interesting angles to write their posts. They love to reveal the strange and the macabre, uncover the silly and the sanctimonious. My rather eccentric brethren and me would thus become fodder for the blogging community at large. We’d be the toast of Las Vegas.

And, it just so happens that I am also a damn good luck charm. People around me seem to win at everything: gambling, love, Parcheesi. Stand beside me at a craps table and watch the dice roll you sweet numbers.

So in conclusion, pick me!

Sincerely,

JD, Billy Bob, Pepe, Abu, Jimmy John, Thurston Winchester III

    [...] first was “Why Me?” a laugh-out-loud post about the uniquely beneficial condition JD (BC username JDh888) feels makes him the best blogger [...]

  4. Margaret Said,

    May I say, your Pepe is the best French Christopher Walken I’ve ever heard!

    You are hilarious and if BC doesn’t send you to BWE, THEY are the ones who are crazy, not you.

    :)

  5. Count Sneaky Said,

    I would certainly pick you if I could. As it is I can only award you the coveted Croix de Non Sequitor with crossed palms for Bodacious Blogging. I would, if I could, send you to Sin City
    as a Blogger Extrordinaire, but then every bozo would want a Croix and a trip.
