Codpiece Johnson Demands Your Vote (Don't Make Him Kick You In The Spleen)
-
You insane moppets did as asked: you showed up, you dropped your two-word phrase on the ground for all to see, and then you strolled off like a preening peacock. Good on you. I applaud your efforts.
Now, it’s time to vote.
Below is the list. I think it’s complete, and it’s in no particular order, and it’s 6AM, and I’m very tired. Hell with all that, though. Show must go on.
Pick your favorite two-word phrase.
The top three phrases will end up in the upcoming Codpiece Johnson short story. How will you vote? Will you vote to challenge me? Will you vote to sate your own curiosity? Will you vote to throw a softball? To see what I’ll do with a delicious bit of profanity? What’s your metric?
Voting ends tomorrow morning, 7AM. So, 24 hours from now.
Get to voting, my frabjous smackababies.

WooHOO
I’m the first vote.
Lame that this makes me so happy.
If nothing else, Seismic Bungalow is a great name for a band.
I’d say many, many of these would make pretty bitchin’ band names, actually.
@Shoe:
I noted on Twitter that could be band names, album names, autobiography names, or even the name of my firstborn child.
You’re all secretly voting on all these things.

I have a feeling you will be writing about homosexual clowns spreading disease. A hunch, but a pretty big one.
A warning to all: NAMBLA’s sort of a creepy topic, so… y’know, I’ll insinuate the phrase into the story, but it might not be how people expect it. Much as I want Codpiece Johnson to curbstomp some kid-touchers, I alternately don’t feel like writing about, y’know, kid-touchers.

Fuck yeah, Stackable Hamsters!

I am very much so encouraging Chuck to veto NAMBLA Carnival.
I mean, come on.
Hah hah. DIsco nuns. Epic

Wow. If “stackable hamsters” actually earns a top spot, *I* may owe the assemblage a story too. Not that it would rival Codpiece Johnson, but still!
Inundated by choice! Aiee!
Your malodorous tweet, sir, has *poisoned* the predispositions of the population. Lo, and it was *skewed*.
(Unless of course the results predate your tweet, in which case I retract my complaint, and cheer for the CDC raid on those kid touching clowns manning the slow-pitch hamster unstacking booth.)
Hey, not like we’re voting for a president over here.
Point being, if some people are uncomfortable with it — and, if I’m reading a couple emails and tweets right, they might be — then I’m not going to go sticking that kind of stuff into a story on the off-chance I’m going to be savvy enough to not step on toes. I mean, if I can think of a funny way of doing it, it’s all good.

You know, nothing says that it has to be the same acronym.
“Due to inexpert translators and bad phone lines, the North African Multinational Business Leader’s Association was puzzled by the mob of protesters outside their first ever American conference.”
NAMBLA could always easily be the National Association of Marlon Brando Look Alikes.It is a dispute which rages on to this day.
Clever monkeys. Okay, I’m good with alla that.
