Who Wants A Fat, Meaty Hunk Of Terribleminds? Come Take A Bite, Little Monsters
-
Chaos descends on Der Wendighaus.
It isn’t here yet.
For now, it’s a distant storm, turbid and muddy. Lightning crackles betwixt distant clouds. Winds keen and howl. A pegasus rides a hot updraft, shooting lasers from its eyes, spraying acid from its teats.
I dunno.
What’s gonna happen is, come Monday, August 9th, my week is probably going to go to hell. We move out of this house on Tuesday and into the new house on Wednesday, and it looks like Internet (FiOS) won’t arrive until Thursday at the earliest, so it’s a good bet that my bloggery will go dark during that week. And nobody wants that. And by “nobody,” I mean, “just me,” since most of you poor bastards would probably welcome the respite.
Too damn bad.
I shan’t let this bulwark of bloggerel and bloviation go dark! Nay! Fie! Forsooth! For naught! And other words and exclamations! Pbbt!
The only way I can ensure that radio silence does not descend upon this site is by turning over the keys to you crazy loons. I did this before when hop-skipping off to the Sundance Labs, and the results were troubling. I had to pull someone’s panties out of the garbage disposal. A syphilitic possum lay dormant under the couch. Someone threw up blood and Tic-Tacs in the fridge. It was a bad week. But hey, we all made it through, and with only a few tightening turns of the Allen wrench (this blog, after all, was purchased at Ikea, home of the Allen wrench), I once again got her ship-shape. Or tip-top. Or ship-top and tip-shape.
Heck, you’ve probably already noticed that I’ve been a little quieter than usual — fewer comments, fewer tweets. It’s not that I don’t love you. It’s just — well. Chaos looms. Looms.
So.
During that week, I could use five blog entries. Sure, sure, I could write ‘em myself. But I’m lazy charitable. I’d like to overestimate explain the potential exposure you could get. This place gets at least at least 10000 1000 500 15 views a day. That’s some exciting shit.
Okay, it’s probably not that exciting.
But, I’d appreciate you doing me the favor.
Anybody up for the task of writing one of the five?
Say, 500 to 1000 words?
Write whatever you damn well please. Flash fiction. Angry ranty-ravy bloggery. An ode to your most private parts thoughts. It’s on you. Hop on into the comments, let me know if you want a slicey-slice of this mangy majestic beast. If I get more than five people, well, I might take more, or maybe I’ll pick names out of a hat or divine the choices from a handful of pigeon guts.
I’d need the post by Friday the 6th of August.
Who’s in?

I’ll take a bite.
That is, if you can stand to have an unproven hack have a chance at sullying the pefection of fine literature that this blog represents.
I’ll tap that.
And we’ve got two taking a bite so far.
Anybody else?
Again: if I go above five, well, hell, I’ll figure it out. Maybe I’ll have people fight, Thunderdome style.

I would love a piece of this hot little action.
Give me a piece of that sweet, sweet ass.
I’ll do some bloggery also.
Also, if you get more than five, feel free to drop me – I was in on it last time.
Mmmm, Terribleminds.
Like Rick, I’d love to sink my teeth into that sweet, sweet insanity.
Also like Rick, you can drop my ass like a bowl of ebola soup if you get enough new people.
If it’s not too late, I will vent my spleen all over your Internet home.
Okay, more names pile up. Awesome.
Not too late at all. The more the merrier.
Keep on adding names to the pile, people. I’ll figure out who’s in tomorrow morning, then. The names in a hat will probably do the trick.

I would be willing to tarnish my reputation by guest-blogging for you if a spot remains.
As noted, only five spots, but I’ll take an infinite number of names and then let fate decide which of you poor suckers are on the hook.
Not throwing my hat in. Nope. I’m just here to let you know I’ve got a huge pile of Allen wrenches at the ready. And I’m wondering what Tic-Tac spew would even look like. Yuck.
And seriously, Thunderdome. Way better than a hat.
Heh. Thunderdome.
Thunderdome would be a voting thing, I figure — pitching names against names in a bloodthirsty bid for blog domination.
Too callous?
Too creepy?
Or just right?
– c.
Count me in.
I’d do it! ^_^
What the hell, I’m in.
Put me in the hat.
The pretty one, with the velvet and the hidden rogaine and skittles dispensers.
I had a blast last time – I’d gladly give it another spin! Count me in.
*throws his hat in the ring*
I would so get in on that piece of action, just for the mobs that would be waiting for you when you returned.
Sweet! Chuck is leaving.
We can finally have that cock fight, in his honor of course.
And by cock fight, I mean a fight between two rabid wolverines with strap-ons tied to their heads. It’ll be like Pokemon, Wendig style.
Granted, I was going to save them for his wake, but they’re starting to get antsy being tied up in my trunk.
Who’s with me?
I’d love a chance!
*raises hand* Cool beans, I’m in.
I’d be down.
If you’re still in the blogger market, I’ll take a day.
I’m up for it. Definitely.
Ahh, hell, I’ve lurked long enough. Toss my name in there as well.
