And in the order they were received, no less

It was the middle of the longest lecture on apiculture Charles Mingus had ever sat through and he was beginning to regret giving up his bass, a jazz career overflowing with accolades, and all the money, women, and excitement that came with it. Jazz was a ruritania now that he was mired in the minutiae of “fixed-frame hives” and “smokers”.

In his disclosure of his wishes to the president of the North American Jazz Association for Jazz in America (NAJAJA) to pursue a life in beekeeping he expressed his desire for change. Mingus chuckled as he thought back to writing that going from jazz to bees would be “vicissitudinal to his spirit, his lifestyle, and his artistry.”

“What a magnificent douchebag I was,” thought Mingus, “to use an archaic version of the adjective form of ‘vicissitude’. I must have just thrown it in there because I’m a stupid cockface.”

Mingus contemplated further his life decisions and all the women he could have porked as the speaker droned on about the need to concatenate hive structures and the benefits of the new singular hive designs shaped like an upside-down uvula. Back then any woman would have jumped at the chance to be his penis holster: to have his purple-headed womb-ferret wriggling within their loins.

But now that he’d left jazz women looked at him with eyes full of arsenic.

“‘Irregardless’,” Mingus thought, “that’s a douchey word too. Why do I keep using such utterly pointless words? I am a cock.”

He cleared the phlegm from his throat and ruminated again on the career he abandoned because he worried about being the jazz bassist who had shark-jumped his craft.

At the front of the room slide after slide of oblong, squamous beehives filled the audience with glee. Mingus saw the mostly-male crowd was unaware of their vaginality: their eyes were moist at the sight of beehives! These men were children, really, better suited to playing tag and wiping their boogers on each other. They had no place in the real world. He could take it no longer.

“Listen up, cats, we’re talkin’ ’bout bees! Yeah, they make that sweet honey, but they don’t make the world spin. Let’s cool out on the bees a while, huh?”

His shibboleth was palpable. A crowd of angry, confused, and irritated faces drove him out of the room, and he was happy to go, revealing his callipygian side as he turned to leave. As he reached the door the room heard a malevolent borborygmus, and though Mingus knew it was coming it was so violent and explosive that when it burst from him he pronked.

Paper in the lecture room blew everywhere, and the cockbag at the podium was knocked over by the bowel-blowout. As if by prestidigitation Mingus produced a full upright bass from inside his vest and made his exit from beekeeping forever, leaving a room full of arsemongers and a life of tomfoolery behind.

He was barely out the door when he felt a hand on his shoulder. The shitcock from the lecture was forcibly turning Mingus to face him.

Now that Mingus and the speaker were face to face, Mingus could tell from the speaker’s comb-over and threadbare suit that he was a parsimonious little twat who had long ago nerfed himself through years of coddling and penissockery. He lived a life bereft of adventure.

Mingus bellowed, “Get you hands off of me! Your life is a monument to floccinaucinihilipilification, you shit-faced dildo-sandwich!”

“Why, I’ve never met anyone so ribald…”

“Ribald? I’m the living transubstantiation of emotion into music! Sometimes it gets a little raunchy, but that’s what life’s about. You’re too busy studying insects to notice you anal-riffic meat-wallet!”

“… S..sir,” said the speaker trembling with rage, “I’d thank you to leave our conference now.”

“No, I think it’s time for you to leave you little cock-carnageous bug-fucker!”

And with that Mingus defenestrated the speaker. He then stooped over, gathered up his bass, and free from the inanity of the beekeeping world went on to write a song about the silliness of antidisestablishmentarianism on the bus ride back to his condo, chuckling all the while at the day’s douchebaggery.

And what, bitches? - ACW

P.S. Felching.

Drawing a blank

I’ve got nothing. Did you see that post from yesterday? What a pile of washed up shit THAT was. I can’t believe you even read it and then didn’t try to track me down to beat me up for having written something so completely boring. Ugh. It made pablum look like banality incarnate.

So because I’m so lazy I’m going to throw it out to the internetstertubestersuperterhighwayternets. Leave me a single word in the comments and I’ll make a post using those words tomorrow.

Sorry for phoning it in today, but you get what you pay for around here.

It’s that time again. UPDATED

UPDATE: Mrs. ACW says I was “insulting, combative, and bristly” in this post, so I thought I would put something up here to explain the below: I wasn’t talking about you. Or you. Or you or you or you. I was talking about that guy, over there. Yeah, the goofy looking one in the back with the raw bacon hanging out of his pants. The stuff below was meant for him. You people, though? I love you people. Also, I am superior to you in every way. Just to be clear.

I’m balls-to-the-wall busy today, and I’ll be making my annual trip up to Long Island this week, so I figured this would be the perfect time to do the very last ever “Ask the ACW” post.

I’m way too busy, and also way too lazy, to find any of the old posts on either a) the yearly trip to Long Island, or b) all the old Ask the ACW stuff, but rest assured it’s on the blog somewhere if you feel like looking for it.

Because this will be the very last Ask the ACW, there are a few rules. You can still ask anything that you want to ask, and I still reserve the right to answer or ignore questions based on little less than my own personal whimsy. But since I’m nothing if not extremely friendly and charitable, I will tell you generally which questions I won’t be answering.

- I won’t answer any questions that I’ve answered before. Oh, are you crying? Too bad. My brain cries when I keep seeing the same question over and over again. Also, my brain cries because they let YOU use a computer.

- I won’t answer any questions along the lines of “why is the sky blue?” or “why do 7-11s have locks on the doors if they are open 24 hours?” because not only are those questions kind of cliche at this point, they’re also not really a lot of fun to answer, and though you might think these posts are about you having a chance to raise your voice, it’s really still all about me.

- I, of course you dumb dumb, will not answer any questions about my personal life like my phone number, address, work place, sex life, etc. I really don’t want any of you sickos to know any more than you already do, and in fact, the amount that you know already scares me.

- I reserve the right to lie in totality and completely in some, most, or all of the answers, but will promise to try not to do so if I feel like it.

- Try to keep it to one or two questions. Every time I do this it takes me all damn week to answer the stupid questions because they just go on, and on, and on. Here’s a helpful tip: write down as many questions as you want, and then go through them to see which one or two are the best. Once you’ve eliminated all the questions because you’re dumb and your questions suck you can throw yourself off a building clear of any doubt that you bothered me with stupid questions.

I’ll almost certainly need to add more rules here as you numbnuts begin to submit your stupid questions in the comments. Try not to drool all over everything. Also, I’m pretty sure at least a dozen of you brainless meatbags will violate these rules in a pathetic attempt at “humor”, which is why I’ll be violating my own “comments will never be deleted” policy to delete your comments.

Cheers, bitches.

And do math problems 1, 3, and 9 on page 286.

So, necrophilia. Someone *coughzenchickcough* has for the past few years, introduced me to new people like this:

“Hey, this is ACW. He likes necrophilia.” Then she looks at me and goes, “Have fun!” and walks away. Sometimes she literally barks, “Go!” before throwing down her hand like a referee, observing the trainwreck of conversation that follows.

As I look at the partly amused and partly horrified face of a stranger I have to very quickly explain the whole history of this necrophilia thing, explain that I find necrophilia repulsive, and then explain that I’m hard pressed to understand why we can’t allow people to do it.

Most of the time people try to corner me by saying things like, “But digging up a grave is trespassing!” or “You wouldn’t want some stranger humping your relatives’ corpses, would you?”

And that’s when it finally clicked with me: if you treat necrophilia like a consensual sexual encounter, similar rules have to be followed. You can’t just go into somebody’s house and have sex with them. That’s tresspassing (to say the least). Similarly, you can’t just bust into a morgue or cemetery. You can’t just start having sex with a stranger (for the most part), and similarly, you can’t start having sex with a stranger’s corpse.

Now, the issue of consent is a difficult one, because a body can’t consent. However, the person can consent before they become a body, and in that case, I don’t see any reason why a necrophile couldn’t have sex with that body if they had been given consent to do so by the person before they became a body. See what I mean?

So, because I have back to back meetings pretty much all day long, I have a homework assignment for you:

In the comments, give me your best arguments for or against necrophilia. Feel free to play devil’s advocate and take a stance that you might not actually support. Feel free to challenge one another’s points. You can check my necrophilia tag for some of the arguments I’ve made in the past. Also, I still find necrophilia repulsive, but if someone gave someone else consent to hump their corpse, I don’t see why we shouldn’t let them do it.

People keep asking me to post about necrophilia, so if I come back to check my comments and see nothing going on, this’ll probably be the last time I post about necrophilia. I can only make the same arguments over and over again so many times.

The Winners

I think we can all agree that Omega pretty much won every category fair and square. Except for maybe “Longest”. Regardless, he pretty much pwn0rz3d the whole damned contest. So, in the interest of being able to get more crap out of my house, I awarded Omega the prize in one category, and then awarded prizes to the other winners.

Jamie- Longest: “Clowns with big sausages trying to have anonymous sex with zombies because they heard that necrophilia is fun”. Jamie actually won the longest category fair and square, snatching a complete and total upset from the soul-rending claws of that pervert Omega.

Bliss- Most related to necrophilia: “I want to hump zombies because I love necrophilia”. I would have to say that nothing quite captures the true spirit of necrophilia than this statement by Bliss (well, aside from Omega’s entries, and his family reunions).

Omega- Most surreal: “the undead thundercats are in my pants”. I was actually really happy with this entry. Every time I would look at it I would laugh, and then wonder why the hell I was laughing so hard, read it again, and start laughing again. For all his entries, this one by Omega was the one that broke my brain.

Lori- Strangest instance of the word “coworker”: “Anonymous zombies eating necrophiliac coworkers”. I saw this search term and thought, “Why would it be important that the coworkers that the zombies were eating would be necrophiliacs? Is there an office somewhere housing a bunch of coworkers who are all necrophiliacs?” And it was then that I realized that the cunning use of the word “coworker” is what helped make it so bizarre.

the watergirl- Potentially Criminal: “how to have anonymous necrophiliac sex with my coworkers brother”. More than anyone, twg knows that necrophilia is illegal. I honestly am not sure if she was participating in the contest or actually looking for this information. Either way, she wins a prize.

S. Reed- Most related to zombies: “Zombie semen tastes like cannog”. You could make the argument that there were many entries that were more related to zombies than this one. And you’d be right, but they were all entered by Omega, that sick, sadistic fuck. Actually, for some reason this entry really stood out for me. It might be that cannog is that disgusting. It might be because I’d never really thought about zombie semen. It might be that it’s plagued my dreams all weekend. Regardless, S. Reed takes this one.

Your Neighborhood Librarian- Most offensive: “jesus fucking a corpse on a roof” AND “drinking eggnog from Jesus’s zombie anus”. I don’t know what more can be said about these entries except that they probably would have been even more offensive had they been combined. Kudos, YNL. I hope you enjoy the special place that has now been reserved for you in Hell.

DaMonkeyCode- Make your own category: “I put a wookie in a zombie’s butt and got a pregnant teenage roofer”. This entry was so brilliant in its strangeness that I couldn’t let it go by unnoticed. I envisioned someone stuffing Chewbacca into a zombie’s ass like it was the coin-slot on a vending machine, and moments later a pregnant white-trash teen explodes out of the zombie, nail-gun in hand, shingles over her shoulder. Genius.

So, all the winners should email me their mailing address at my gmail.com address: anonymouscoworker. They’ll get a specially selected piece of junk from my house, and something they might actually enjoy.

Before this contest closes, I think it’s important to recognize the work that Omega went through, so here are all his entries reproduced for your viewing enjoyment. Better not let your boss or significant other see this list or you’ll get kicked to the curb so fast you won’t really know what happened.

child corpse tit fucking (Wow. Talk about hitting the ground running.)
masturbating to animal corpse
jerk my dead dick
hump my mother the zombie stripper
taking a shit on the pope (This one made me laugh out loud.)
I loves me some zombie anus (The folksy tone of this one really sells it.)
I picked up a hooker at the mortuary
Random car fart eats the glazed soup bucket
the undead thundercats are in my pants
I ate my shitty coworker and then molested his bones (Talk about adding insult to injury.)
An orgy of undead loving
Freak me with your rotting booty (I think he was channeling Sir Mix-a-lot on this one.)
I’m going to shoot you in the face when I rob you
Glen Burnie is the goddamn devil (Oh c’mon, it’s not that bad.)
Eat the maggots from my zombie ass, you ignorant necro
I pleasure myself when kittens are killed (I guess that’s sort of the inverse of this.)

And that he ended his last entry with, “That’ll do, pig, that’ll do.” damn near killed me.

Win free stuff! UPDATED AGAIN

UPDATE 2: I’ll be judging entries this weekend and will post pictures of prizes that are being mailed out to the winners on Monday. So far I am thrilled at the results.

UPDATE: I am so happy at how this is going so far that I’m going to search my house for more prizes.

w00t! It’s a contest! Like I said yesterday, Mrs. ACW and I were cleaning out our attic, and we came up with a bunch of crap that was too worthless to sell so I’ve decided to give it away to you, my semi-literate and socially maladjusted readers, as prizes!

Here’s how you win:

Find the most bizarre search term which still links to my blog.

Pick something really strange to search for in Google, and see if you can find a way to link to my blog. For example, somewhere, somehow “i hate my brother incest” links to my blog. You can do MUCH better than that, I’m sure.

So pick a search term, get it to work, and post a link to the Google search itself here in the comments. I’ll also confirm it in the blog stats (so you need to click the link).

Here’s an example:

1) Go to Google.com
2) Type in your search term (in this case, I used “anonymouscoworker”)
3) See if you can find a link to my site. You might have to look through many pages. If you find a link, grab the URL at the top of the page. (in this case it’s http://www.google.com/search?q=anonymouscoworker
&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official
&client=firefox-a)
4) Post that URL in the comments
5) Win a prize (maybe)!

Prize categories:
Most offensive
Longest (Keep in mind it must also be bizarre. You can’t just use one of my own posts as a search.)
Most related to zombies
Most related to necrophilia
Strangest instance of the word “coworker”
Make Your Own Category!
Worst grammar
Most surreal
Potentially Criminal (i.e. “how do I break out of jail?”)

And just to whet your appetite for greedy competition, here are some of the prizes you’re playing for:

An old Christmas Tree Stand!
A wire paper rack!
This crappy CD case!

What are you waiting for? Get Googling!

Disclaimer: The prizes shown may be exponentially better than prizes mailed. Void in Alaska and Hawaii but not in that order, and only during leap years. Batteries not included, unless your prize is old batteries. Do not ingest. Babies cannot be mailed internationally, sorry. Some perishable prizes may grow mold before delivery: consider this an extra prize.

The sociologist in me loves this

So this fella is… well, why don’t I just let him tell it.

I called him and told him that I thought he had an interesting idea, and that I wished him luck. I was lucky caller number 2309. I’m not going to tell YOU to call him, but the guy asked I put something up on my blog, so here it is.

Also, this will probably be one of only a very few video posts on my site. Call me old fashioned.

It’s like “This is Your Life”

Bliss had this great idea for people to post in “his style” given an image he put up. As a regular reader, I thought it would be easy, but I think it’s easy to tell that my style was dominant in my attempt to mimic him.

So I thought it would be hilarious for other folks to ape my style and to see what I get. I imagine it’ll be all zombies, necrophilia, farts, poop, bitching, and such. But who knows?!

Here’s your task if you feel like participating. Write a quick post about how I would respond blog about a coworker burning their bag of popcorn in the microwave in the lunch room. You can post in comments, or on your own blog and send me a link, or you can email me. Best one wins SOMETHING RANDOM FROM ONE OF MY TWO SHEDS!!1!!1!!eleven!!!

And some video games. They should get a free Xbox.

Yesterday I paid $25 to find out that I didn’t have cancer. I had a mole removed about 2 weeks ago, and at my follow-up appointment I was told the mole was benign. I guess I really don’t mind paying $25 to find out I don’t have cancer, considering the alternative. People who find out that they DO have cancer should not only NOT have to shell-out the co-pay for the insurance, but they also be given the following:

1 puppy, wiggly
1 kitten, squirmy
1 lifetime pass to the Old Country Buffet, dessert buffet included
1 fat wad of singles, for jukeboxes
1 fat wad of singles, for slot machines
1 fat wad of singles, for strippers
1 pound of cocaine, pure
1 “Get out of jail free” card, real

I have to get my hair cut today. The last time I had my hair cut was like a train wreck. A train wreck where one train was carrying grease barrels, used condoms, and the collected flotsam mopped out of Oprah Winfrey’s bathroom; and the other train was carrying the world’s largest bucket of excreted peanuts and corn.

My hair is so frayed and poofy, it looks like somebody cut it with chicken tenders. I guess that’s what I get for going to the barber who runs his shop out of the trunk of his Buick LeSabre.

I was so shocked by how many responses I got about my query for classical music that I’ve decided to try to challenge you all again. I’d like an mp3 of:

Hamish MacCunn- Overture: The Land of the Mountain and The Flood

First person to send me this one gets a special prize. And I’m not talking about the crappy cookies I normally send. I’m talking about a for reals type prize.

I wouldn’t use those to strangle, and then forcibly sodomize, my worst enemy

So the other day Carolyn at Whirled Events emails me and tells me that she’s having a “World’s Ugliest Tie” contest/meme/thing and asks if I would like to participate. Because I spent four years in Catholic school wearing a tie every day to school, and knowing that I still had some of those ties, and knowing that those ties were simply hideous, I said, “Yeah, I’ll give it a go.”

So, for your viewing pleasure, I’ve outlined my ties below. Those of you who have just recovered from Lasik surgery, or those of you with astigmatism, or those of you with fashion sense/taste may want to look away. Go have a wheatgrass enema, or whatever it is you fashionable people do.

This is a picture of all the ties that are so ugly that I can’ bear to throw them away. I have many new ties now. Ties that are respectable. Ties that match things. Ties that weren’t inpired by the seething pool of filth, degredation, disease, and human excrement that typify the backstage area after a James Taylor concert.
ties

This is a detail photo of the wool ties from the picture above. As you can see, they were lovingly handcrafted by a blind sadist, and resmble knitted, unrolled condoms. The height of fashion would not be high enough to hang yourself for wearing one of these.
wool ties close

This is the striped-tie collection. As you can see by the reflected luminescence of the flash on the ties, not a single natural material was used in the production of these style-abortions. “What goes well with brown?” Silver, grey, red, blue! I imagine this is what Ralph Lauren’s cancer might look like.
striped ties close

Finally we make it to the single ugliest tie in my collection. I encourage you to click on the image below for the opportunity to view it full-sized. Not content having captured the color of baby leavings, the designer of this tie incorporates a new shade of toddler shit into each stripe! Look, there’s bananas and peas! Look, there’s carrots and corn! Look, there’s peanut-butter and cat-food! Obviously, this is my favorite tie.
orange tie close

So, I, by proxy of Carolyn, challenge you to find ties uglier than the ones profiled here, and on Carolyn’s site. Also, let me know if you want to borrow any of them.
