FUP Nominated for Nobel Peace Prize! (ish)

^^This panda can feel its grip on humanity slipping away.^^

GREAT NEWS PEOPLE. The fine people at Logo have announced that I AM BEING NOMINATED FOR AN AWARD. It's for "greatest person ever" (or something) on their NewNowNext award show! You can even vote for me!!!!1111!! The show is somewhat low budget (it can't afford spaces in its name) so I don't think I'm getting any money, which seems like bullshit. But it is on TV, which means THIS SHIT IS GOING GLOBAL. Let's be honest here, people, this isn't the best thing that's ever happened to me, but it's the best thing that's ever happened to you!!!

Now, I know what you're thinking: this blog is awesome. But I know what else you are thinking: isn't Logo a gay network? How does telling cute animals what's what relate to the gay community? Well, as long time readers of the blog know, this blog actually started out as a major LGBT news and debate site. We would have commentary, as well as people from different walks of life come on the site with opposing viewpoints and they wouldn't be able to leave the computer until they sorted out their differences! A lot of people don't know this, but I was singlehandedly responsible for putting the whole gay marriage argument to rest (glad that's over, wtf, am I right?). Many others remember my thought-provoking and truly moving Will and Grace farewell post, which received four separate Peabodie Awards. Eventually, though, all gay-related websites evolve into anti-penguin campaigns (you should see the relaunch they are developing for the GLAAD website, even I think it goes a little too far).

I would also like to add one thing: Penguins have impeccable taste in interior design. If it wasn't for gay people, those flightless bastards would be the only ones we could call to move from shabby to chic. So thank you, Logo. Even though my cable company doesn't put you on my television, I'm sure you are great, if only now by association.

    As a lesbanese lesbian thespian, I must say that I truly appreciate the advocacy work you have done for the gay community...and please remember that all of the gay Mallard ducks, wolf couples, and other wild "longtime animal companions" will one day thank you for the civil rights efforts on their behalf. I must now go get my flannel on for work.

    I have a love hate relationship with FUP, so I will take the non-PC route and refrain from voting....I mean you're a smelly mammal just like me.

    Going up against FML is going to be tough. You must somehow create an FUP app in order to truely compete? How else will you capture the Gay Hipster vote if you don't somehow tie yourself to Apple if only by way of the AppStore?

    So fucking what! We're supposed to be impressed by this? You don't even pay to have your shit hosted. Instead you take the fucktard coward route and mooch off of blogger.com. "Hey, everybody, look at me! I blog about cute animals and put them in their respective places!"

    This is worthy of recognition? Anybody that can fill out an online registration form can have a blog on blogger. Hell, even my little brother has a blog (and he's only 25).

    Do yourself a favor and tell all of your "followers" NOT TO VOTE. That way you can actually prove your mettle and say you did it on your own.

    I didn't see anything in the fine print that said one person one vote - so, WTF, I used the refrainers votes plus mine :-P

    Okay, I confess, I liked some of the others nominees - but most of the votes went to FUP.

    I hired a penguin to redo the design of our house. He was, indeed, truly talented.... except I had to carry him up and down the stairs.

    Aw, is Beefy McManstick jealous? Yeah blogger.com is free; it's not about that, it's the content and writing style. Funny is funny.

    Props to you FUP. Logo has decent stuff, mostly a hilarious cartoon called Rick and Steve. FUP should be proud to be recognized by them.

    Well done.

    great by association? isn't that a tad arrogant? even for you?

    and who is going to defend us from all the uppity bitches who will come out of the woodwork when they realise that awards are being handed out for behavior like yours?

    surely our future is doomed. and it's something you've started. the animals will surely be having the last laugh.

    I did not know much about the Nobel laureates, until he began to study medicine and did a project called generic viagra, which was very investigative, although I believe it was there that I met on the awards
