Thanks for the mention on my psychic cats entry. I was targeting the LKK audience, but she seemed to be AWOL this week.

Substitute 't-shirt' or 'underwear' for onesie, and you're talking about any given day of my adult life.

I believe she is on vacation again. . . this time without a good net connection.

OOOOH but I did, sorta, kinda, in a roundabout way, in my own entry at the top of page 10. I was wondering if you would see it. I didn't know if your entry was a true entry because there wasn't really a product pictured. Or I'm just stupid.

Hee hee, I see it now. I wasn't able to look at the biggie pic yesterday cause the imageshack pics were taking a really long time to load.

Mine wasn't a real entry, other than to imply that the leakfrog would still be around I suppose. Just something I though was funny, inspired by your sig, of course

Don't worry, no one ever likes mine unless I include a pretty girl. Rest assured that even posting an entry is better than just lurking through the forums.

you make a valid point, but I had two pretty girls in one entry: http://www.woot.com/Forums/ViewPost.aspx?PostID=1235401

If I don't win this contest, I don't know what I'm gonna do with my life... Continue as-is, I suppose.

Come on huney, I posted a pretty girl too! No one comments on my posts. . . but then I guess maybe my hot guy is distracting everyone.

To whomever thought their entry went unnoticed (although it probably didn't!), this sympathy card is for you:

Don't worry, I had to give myself this card this week too. I made this for a dodgeball contest a while back.

Going unnoticed is just a fact of life around here, but I had fun with the entries and that is what keeps me coming back. Oh, and yes, I liked the cylon jokes, even though I have never been able to get into the series. Pretty girls indeed, those trump my maid for sure.

The creating and posting is fun. It's the implicit rejection that's a bitter pill.

Caption This! used to be a really fun site where a screen grabber would snatch whatever was on the Sci-Fi Channel and let you caption it. Sci-fi.com eventually dropped it after dropping MST3K, and now it's sort of a lame site where they give you pre-determined picture to cap, and hardly anyone bothers these days. (Google Caption This! and you might still find pages of people's favorite caps from the 'old days')

Still, they do have one nice feature where you can "vote" by nudging the entry's score up or down one notch. I've always though it would be a good feature here. Not for picking a winner as much as just letting you know that people are looking at it and whether the entry is going over in a positive or negative way. Plus, it would decrease the amount of posts that Woot would otherwise like to delete, like they do with "First Post" and "me too" postings.
