    arghhhhhhhhhhh

    I'm really hurt. *try to find a desk to hide my confidenceless self*
    Not that I'm not included, but that I'm in the entrant thread but get left out in the officail match :eek:

    Or, maybe Manny thinks I'm the winner in the earlier rounds by default, so I can sit out for now and watch you guys fight :cool:

    BTW, it's my opinion that W&S should not be seeded No1. One who never posted in the hangout should not be seeded No1.

    *go back hiding under my desk *

    Wow, I can't believe I was nominated. This is my chance to make up for losing the Student Council election in elementary school and High School. Well, it looks like I'm losing, so I'm gonna have to run some commercials in here i.e. smear ads. Sorry DrewP, "it aint nuttin' poy-sonal', it's just business." First is the smear ad:

    [Dark and scary music plays. Suddenly, the guy who does voice overs for all the campaign ads in texas starts talking]

    "Why is DrewP wrong for this round of Best Poster? Let's look at the facts: DrewP hates babies"

    [women in background repeats] "Hates babies."

    "DrewP supports pollution for the hell of it"

    [background] "Supports pollution."

    "In 1986, DrewP was born."

    [background] "Was born"

    "DrewP uses his real name for his user name."

    [background] "Uses real name."

    "DrewP thinks that Clutch sucks."

    [background] "Thinks that Clutch sucks."

    "When talking about himself, DrewP said he has a "Football jerk attitude where I am an ******* cause I think its funny.""

    [background] "Football jerk. *******."

    "DrewP summed it up best in his bio where he said, "Hi, my name is Steve. I come from a rough area. I used to be addicted to crack but now I am off it and trying to stay clean. That is why I am selling magazine subscriptions.""

    [background] "Addicted to crack, selling," [insert subliminal whisper voice: "p*rn"] "magazine subsriptions." [insert subliminal whisper voice: "to children."]

    "Drew P, wrong for the first round of Best Poster, wrong for Rockets fans everywhere."

    [Fade out while showing picture of DrewP with a smug look on his face.]

    Ok, now my positive ad Where I appeal to everyone:

    [Classic all american good guy music plays, and the same guy does the voice over, only he speaks in a positive tone this time.]

    "Why is Oski2005 the best choice for Best Poster Preliminary Round #1? Because Oski2005 is a student at A&M and a member of the fighting Texas Aggie class of '05."

    [Picture of me shaking hands and saying "howdy" to members of the Corps of Cadets fades in]

    "Oski2005 is a 2 percenter."

    [Picture of me 10 seconds later giving the guys from the Corps "the finger" as they walk away. Could also use picture of me watching a DVD or playing video games during Midnight Yell.]

    "Oski2005 thinks Clutch is a genius."

    [Picture of me giving the thumbs up while standing next to a computer monitor with the ClutchCity.net homepage on it.]

    "Oski2005 burned all of Jeff's songs to a CD."

    [Picture of me holding up a blank CD with "Jeff's Music" written on it at the last second.]

    "Oski2005 is the biggest U2 fan in the BBS"

    [Picture of my U2 CD collection]

    "Oski2005 supports and defends Steve Francis as the teams PG, but believes he would be even better if he got 2 more assists per game."

    [picture of me pumping my fist in front of a tv after Stevie had just made a layup.]

    "Oski2005 is a true Texan, who is a Latino, who looks like a white guy, who looks like a cross between Bono and 1970's Elvis, who has to explain to people who just met him that he isn't half white, he just acts that way, who's best friend is black, who doesn't own a rockets jersey because the new ones come out next year, who plays video games, and is learning guitar on his own."

    [Picture of me doing the "I don't know" confused shoulder shrug pose]

    "Oski2005, the smart choice, the right choice, the "he's probably not going to win so he's going to have fun with this" choice."

    Had to change my vote to Oski2005, anyone who uses an Office Space quote in a smear campaign gets my vote. :D

    [Classic political campaign music that sorta sounds like the song at the end of The Natural starts playing]

    "Hi, I'm Oski2005. Vote for me and I'll blow up the batcave"
