The Third Annual Wordsmoker Valentine’s Day Love Contest

January 29, 2013 in Valentine's Day Love Contest

It’s that time of year again folks. You know, the one where we get inundated with orders to express our love for our significant other on one certain day, usually in the form of food/jewelry/chocolates, and if we don’t we are to be forever branded as commitment-phobes? Yes, Valentine’s Day, that’s the holiday! Yay, the time has come to once again squeeeeeeeeze our way into our Spanx and go out with all the other boobs attempting to show their unique love at The Melting Pot. Luckily for you, we here at Wordsmoker HQ sympathize, so to help dull the aggravation, I am happy to bring you The Third Annual Wordsmoker Valentine’s Day Love Contest. (Wow that sure is a mouthful.) From now until February 13th at midnight (and probably a little bit after) you can submit your Love, Sex, or Valentine’s Day themed poems, rants, stories, opinion pieces, et cetera for consideration. Here are the rules: Read the rest of this entry →

Wordsmoker Anthropology: Things That Petrify Me

May 5, 2012 in Scary!, Terrifying Things, Wordsmoker Anthropology

Vendetta Spider
  • Spiders – Any and all shapes, colors, and sizes. I am not so much afraid of seeing them as I am of when they disappear.
  • Despite the fact they’ll keep me looking behind doors for a week, I insist on watching scary movies (just not alone; nothing makes me go, “Oh, fuck no,” faster than a horror movie at night by myself). Same goes for creepy video games.
  • Chainsaws – There’s a reason they have the “Chain Gang” at Halloween Horror Nights every year. Fuckers.
  • Despite the fact that even though there is no one home, I am absolutely certain that the moment I stick my hand inside, the garbage disposal will turn on.
  • Even though I vacuum under the bed all the time, I refuse to hang my foot off the side of the bed at night because I just KNOW something will grab me and drag me kicking and screaming below.
  • Dying Young – What, you expect me to say something witty about that? Fuck you. Read the rest of this entry →

February 7, 2012 in Wordsmoker

All Your Cabs Belongs to MeHello, my darlings, and Happy Tuesday! I am interrupting your stream of cat videos and hentai porn to to bring you wonderful breaking news: I’M COMING TO NEW YORK CITY AT THE END OF THIS MONTH! This is not a drill! This is the real deal, folks, so don your crash helmets and have a donor liver on standby, because I expect debauchery and at least one of you to get arrested before this whole thing is said and done. Bonus points if you get arrested for your particular brand of debauchery while dressed as a Republican presidential candidate.

Reminder: Micro-Fiction Roundup

January 23, 2012 in Micro-Fiction Roundup

Greetings, Smokers and Smokerettes! This is just a quick reminder that we are still doing the Micro-Fiction Roundup, and maybe you should mosey on over and, you know, give it a try. I mean, I know that you're a wordy-wordkins, and you know you're a Wordzilla, but don't you want everyone else to know? Of course you do. Wait, you don't? Look at you, being all humble and shit. But that doesn't make my little contest work, so can't you just do it or me? Pretty please? Look, just do it or I'll break your getaway sticks, how about that? Thought so.

No Rest for the Wicked: Why Joe Paterno Does Not Get A Pass

January 22, 2012 in Crime and Punishment

If you've read the grand jury report surrounding the Jerry Sandusky sex abuse crimes, you'll agree that there are plenty of despicable people at Penn State who should not only be shrouded in public humiliation, but should also do some hard jail time.

5 Second Movie Review: The Iron Lady

January 14, 2012 in 5 Second Movie Review

  There were several points throughout this movie that I thought to myself, "Oh my god, I forgot that's Meryl Streep!" Looks like another Best Actress for your mantle, darling.
