Contest! [winners announced]
August 25, 2011
Alright, folks, we’ve got a new contest to do, and this time we’re giving away our brand new Uncle John’s Bathroom Reader t-shirts – and they are very cool t-shirts, if we say so ourselves. And we do.
Check out this beauty. (That’s actually Matt Damon modeling the shirt for us, but he had a hangover and didn’t want us to show his face. Thanks all the same, Matt!):
See August 29 post for winners!
Pretty nice, huh? And a subtle extra:
Give us a word. Okay, we’re giving away FIVE UJBR t-shirts. All you have to do is go read about new words being added to dictionaries – such as “tweet” and “social media” – and give us your own idea for a word that should be added. *You MUST post on the blog. Entries on Facebook will NOT count. Blame Mark Zuckerberg for that. He changed the Facebook contest rules. Grrr.
Changed: Enter as many times as you like! We’ll pick three winners by random draw, and Uncle John and the BRI crack staff will pick two based on originality, cleverness, hilarity, guffaw-factor, sweetness – or a complete lack of any of those things.
Spread the word! And ready set go! Good luck!
P.S. You have until midnight Sunday, PST. Winners announced on Monday.
