Oh well. One headline per person -- seriously, just one, or you can't win (you can still get an Honorable Mention, though) -- and the contest ends on Monday the 22nd at 12:01 am EST. Stay warm, and if you happen to find yourself in an all-rubber superhero costume this weekend, try not to lounge around touching yourself in it... or if you do, please, for god's sake, don't film it.

Hmm. So, you are of the opinion that just because someone writes comic books they wouldn't have the ability to write real works of literature? What of works like Maus, or Persepolis, or Watchmen? Those are real works of literature. You're denying yourself a lot of enjoyment if your reaction to anything comic book related is, ugh, it's a comicbook, therefore it sucks. Also, I fail to see how his mentioning that Tom Bombadil was his least favorite character from the Lord of the Rings and Stephen Colbert making a joke about it equals to Colbert "owning his ass". Did you think they were having a heated disscussion of some sort? It seemed to me that it was a friendly conversation between the two, but if you want to look for conflict you'll find it. I also fail to see what Peter Jackson's decision to not include Tom in the rings films has to do with the situation. I'm confused, are you saying that Gaiman is jumping on a band wagon of some sort? Yeah, Beowulf sucks. But, he was not the one solely responsible for it sucking. There was a director who had no regard for the literature, and another writer whose last signifigant contribution to cinema was over fifteen years ago, involved with the film as well. I'll admit. My earlier statement was a little too fanboy. But no less so than June, Daniel and Seige77's declarations that he sucks. I was merely expressing my opinion.

I wouldn't exactly call that a unanimous opinion. I've certainly never been able to get through his crap. Let's put it this way, he writes books about as artfully as a comic book writer. * I loved it when Colbert owned his ass when he had the pomposity to say Tom Bombadil should have been left out of Fellowship of the Ring--Wow! What a bold statement from Gaiman! Especially in the face of the Peter Jackson's billion dollar success after deciding to cut Bombadil. http://splashpage.mtv.com/2009/03/18/watch-neil-gaiman-take-on-stephen-colbert-on-the-colbert-report/ And I will never forgive him for turning the huge potential of a CGI Beowulf into a total abortion.

"Anti-Gang Taskforce Raids Another Dungeons and Dragons Safehouse, Opens +10 Can of Whoop-Ass on Pants-Shitting Members of the Reported Criminal Enterprise." Authorities, coming under fire for extreme measures used in the apprehension of suspected gang members, have toted the success of their methods as justification for them. Operations "Drop that F#@king Dice or Die!" has so far netted 1,400 associates of the gang (including 15 Elf Sages) inspired by the popular* Dungeons and Dragons series, which in at least one case has been linked to a violent bludgeoning death. Task force members report that no such crime has been committed since their operation has been launched. Along with the arrests, the task force has confiscated 4,396 capes, 15,684 bags of Cheetoes, 977 inhalers, and over 450,000 sheets wortth of elaborated mathematical equations presumeably written as a form of code in furtherance of their criminal activity. The proported success of this program has many higher-ups considering similar action against "Magic: The Gathering" groups, which were added to the watchlist following the criminal designation of the aforementioned group. ----- * [citation needed]

"Nerd Nuts Wither Worldwide!! Excess Estrogen in Plastic Toy Packaging and Comic Book Bags Cause Explosion of Man-boobs and Permanent Ball Withdrawl." (The Sun.) For decades, nerds have been storing their precious toys and comics in protective plastic bags, thinking this is the only way to protect their dorky delights from harmful UV rays and oxidization. Tragically, scientists have now determined a causal relationship between these plastic protectors and nerd pudginess, man-tits, and ball-rot--and, in some extreme cases, complete testicle retraction or even puberty reversal. "It's an estwogen infestation, an estwofest," shrieks Dr. Fled Gurbledley, a Fwapping-on-the-Heath pediatrician and long-time comic book collector. "A nerdpocalypse. Massive nerdocide and so on. Sewiously. Nerds, you need to keep away from all soft plastics, or you could lose your ability to weproduce, or even to wub one out occasionally. And my name's Fwed, you cunt. Don't mock my affwiction." Nerd World Wails "I was a manly boy, a strapping lad, an athlete and all," weeps Beanobuddy, a stereotypical London nerd, in a letter to This Newspaper. "But as time went by, my once-svelte physique just kept on getting floppier and floopier, and my family jewels shrunk to the size of ancient raisins. Soon I couldn't even satisfy myself, no matter how frenzied my attempts. At first I thought I'd just had too many wanks, and possibly too many cakes, but I see now it was the plastics that are to blame." Communal toy-and-comic burnings are scheduled across the nation today, as outraged nerds and their families shrilly scream their rage. "They've neutered my wee Tom," said TomsMoms, a possibly fictitious online alias. "He always used to get a stiffy in the bath, at least, but now he's softer than a cottage cheese. We took him to the seaside last holiday to drown him but the horrible little thing was so puffed up with estrogen fat he just floated on the waves, like a fat little cork, or a spot of ambergris. I blame third-world plastics manufacturers. What I want to know is, what's Parliament going to bloody well do about it?" FlaccidLaddiebuck wrote, on an online message board devoted to the various concerns of nut-less man-boys, a particularly chilling story. "I hadn't seen myself, you know, down there, for quite some time. I couldn't see past my massive swollen 'moobs.' So, naturally, I hadn't noticed how far up my balls had retracted. Then, one day, as I was eating my pies and drinking my banana milk, I choked on something. Much to my horror, it was one of my balls. It had crawled right back up into my body, all the way up into my asophagus, and it almost choked me to death. Thank god Gran was there to suck it out of my windpipe." Thank God indeed, FlaccidLaddieBuck. Thank God indeed.
