I like that I am being recognized for both my vanity and bad language. That pretty much sums me up right there.

Jen said...

I wasn't nominated this year?

Miller... you god damn BASTARD

Some Guy said...

That baby picture award is as good as MINE!

Poobomber said...

Please vote for me, I will fix this economy up in a jiffy if I win the Blog With Most Spam Comments category.

McGone said...

I think you have a typo in the first category, Mr. Miller. It appears that my name and blog are in there.

Dr Zibbs said...

I'm up for dullest? Oh that is rich.

SkylersDad said...

"Blog With The Most Stolen or Unattributed Material" is mine, you hear me people?

You can't handle the truth!!

There, I just made that up, trust me...

McGone said...

I'm going to be checking obsessively all day - I wonder if I'll be the last one to receive a pity vote for Blogger of the Year! The excitement is killing me.

BeckEye said...

Okay, first I was befuddled that anyone nominated me for Blogger of the Year. But then, when I went to vote (NOT for myself) I was curious to see if anyone actually voted for me and I realized that I'm not even on the ballot. I don't even get a little radio button. Look, Miller, I know I'm not gonna win, but you don't have to prove how much I suck compared to the other nominees by not even giving people a chance to NOT vote for me. You unimaginable bastard.

Bacon Lady said...

It's an honor just to be nominated.

Bacon in 08!

Grant Miller said...

Sorry BeckEye! Your name accidentally was left off the first ballot! I deleted that poll and replaced it with a new one including you. Unfortunately, all votes for that poll were lost.

Sooooo, I extended the voting period by 12 hours to make up for it.

Not quite Bush V. Gore, yet. But I'm trying.

SouthernBelle said...

I'm not voting for any of you, because I'm too busy sulking that no one nominated me for anything.

Good luck EVERYONE.

Whiskeymarie said...

I guess if I'm going to only be nominated for one thing, it may as well be for my narcissism.

I totally deserve to win this as I post pics of myself every 2.4 seconds (crosses fingers).

But, how did I not get nominated for "most cat pictures?" Seriously. I'm going to do something about this for next year's awards. Cats. Every. Day.

BeckEye said...

Yes! I squeezed my way in, like a bloggy Ross Perot.


Now, everyone, if you vote for me, I will totally install a hot tub in the Blogsphere's cafeteria.

And I'm sorry I called you an unimaginable bastard, Mr. Miller. You're very imaginable. At least that's what all the lady bloggers say.

Dr Zibbs said...

I knew this two bit award was fixed. Now I'm back to 1 vote. It's kind of funny though..me..with one vote. Think about it..... Are you thinking about it?

sista #2 said...

I seriously need to start swearing more on the blog. If nothing else, I can spew m'fer's all over town.

peace

Can't wait for the awards show - will Britney S be performing? Or hosting

pistols at dawn said...

This is the way I truly know it's Christmas. Good luck to all, but mostly those who aren't in categories with me.

MelO said...

I voted! I voted!

What do I win?!

daddylikeyblog said...

This is freakin' hilarious.

franki said...

i only voted for folks who comment on my blog, cuz i'm petty like that.

...love Maegan said...

this is great! I'm voting now.

Gwen said...

I used to know a guy named Drysdale. He was a lousy lay and kind of a prick but these awards are great.

red said...

Yes! Least Influential Political Blog award, here I come!!!

catherinette said...

I hate you, Grant Miller! How dare you say that I have the most spelling/grammatical errors??

God, I really hope I win this one.

James said...

Not so fast, Red. "Least Influential" has my name all over it.

Philly said...

Fuck, the sista's weren't nominated.
Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck.

twif said...

thanks for using check boxes instead of radio buttons. it allowed me to vote for everyone!

Splotchy said...

Ooh, finally I get to vote for myself where it won't be a write-in!

ÄsK AliCë said...

Yay I voted! Now where the shit is my award?

mike said...

I am surprised my blog was not considered for Dullest. Sure, maybe my brother gets consideration for Blog Master Supreme or whatever, but my (lack of) readership proves my dullness over and over again.

Miss Janey said...

Miss Janey is only sad she didn't know about his sooner. She woudl have nominated herself for Most Swears & Spelling Errors. Perhaps next year. A girl can dream can't she?

Chris said...

YAY! I was mentioned! Yay!

Who's Grant Miller?

Captain Boondoggle said...

Are you f--ing kidding me? This is an outrage, a sham and a downright injustice to not recognize the most groundbreaking thing to happen to the Internet since free streaming porn; www.rufkm.net. Get out of McNally's, stop drinking the water from the Fox River and recognize that we, and we alone, brought the world riveting stories about monkeys and assorted tomfoolery.

Dr Zibbs said...

OK Miller. How did I go from 17 votes to 13. I'm done.

bubbles said...

Yay!! Another blogger get together. Sadly, my kids get home on the 30th so I wouldn't be able to rack up free flights on the way home this year. Besides, I'm on that stupid diet and I'm not sure I can function without drinking.

Let me think about it.

Oh, and don't feel bad about forgetting me, Grant - but I'm thinking least updated might by right up my alley - but that's o.k., really. :)

Grant Miller said...

Dr. Zibbs - I'm not watching the votes closely. But people can change their votes, vote more than once or vote for multiple nominees. That may or may not explain any voting irregularities. Although, since the polls were designed that way, they're not irregularities, I guess.

Dr Zibbs said...

Grant Miller - Uh.....I guess I'll have to take your word on it. Hmmmmm.

lailani ali said...

You're doing the Lord's work here, Mr. Miller. I'll be sure to take a couple of hours and read some of these blogs for the first time in order to place my votes.

anne altman said...

A) why my blog wasn't nominated4 Most Swears, then i swear, clearly, none of you fucksticks are reading my fucking goddamned pile of shit blog thing, you assholes. if i were there with you all i'd punch every last one of you in the fucking beanbag. go fuck yourselves.

B) i'm a little embarrassed about the cat picture thing but i'm coping as a single female who is not only most likely barren, and in the new economy, eats her cat's cat food.

at least i only have one cat, right?

ahem.

anne altman said...

PS i'm coming to chicago the middle of january, so get ready for in your face anne altman action. if you can handle it.

Dad E said...

er'Thanks, Grant.

Charmaine said...
