The Great NOR Giveaway!

[Edit Oct. 15: The contest is closed. Winners have been announced and all entries can be found here!]

Hey crew. I come to you with a challenge. Not just a challenge but the challenge to end all challenges. Actually, it’s pretty easy. I’m asking all of you to write about something for me. Something we all know all too well: DRINKING.

You may or may not be aware that I’m involved in a campaign to raise awareness of the harmful effects of binge drinking. Personally, my own experiences have taught me the harmful effects well enough but then again, I’m not 19 anymore. I’ve had plenty of time to learn my lessons the hard way.

What I’m asking you to do is to write a post covering the story behind your worst hangover ever. Post it and paste this at the bottom:

Don’t be a Jonze
Aternatively, you can add to the discussion forum on the Jonzed Facebook group or just add the Don’t be a Jonze tag to an existing post if you’ve already written one that you’re happy with.

Once you’re finished, leave a comment on this post with the link to your hangover story or just to let me know you spoke up on the Facebook group so I can enter your name into the draw. Double entries are up for grabs if you plug the contest itself so your readers can enter too or by posting an excerpt and link to your post in the Facebook discussion pages.

You have just under two weeks to get your submission in. On October 15, I’ll post a hangover-filled blog carnival and announce the three winners who will win – among other things – a piece of THREE-TIERED TUPPERWARE. And maybe something wiener dog related! ZOMG - I know.

(Keep in mind, this is completely separate from the competition on Facebook giving away MacBooks and iPhones. This is allllll me. Which basically means I won’t be giving away thousands of dollars worth of stuff. However, the prizes will be heartfelt, hilarious and useful…I promise…)

If you need inspriration head over to Jonzed and watch the web movie that we just launched. Otherwise, I can’t wait to read about your debauchery!

Personally, I think boobs deserve to be well cared for, but I just don't get the sexy. I mean…having drawn nude models, male and female, I've done plenty of comparing. I'd rather draw a woman, no contest. They're less angular. Smooth, round lines are more natural to draw and all, but the boobs? They're MAMMARY GLANDS. THAT'S.NOT.SEXY.

Ha! Great post! You're actually the first person who I know that posted about this topic. I'm new to your blog. Like your writing. Definitely coming back. :)

Best story EVER. Here I've seen more than one man deliberately grab a woman's boobs and I'm SURE all they have in mind is NOT “Why don't I like these.”

And yes, I may protect them with my life around these parts of the globe.

My gay friends are totally the ones i let grab my boobs from time to time.

Too much info?

You can like them, but not *like* them… It's possible. Boobs are great. But it doesn't mean I wanna hook up with the ladies… Works the same way.

LiLu April 26, 2010 at 4:29 pm

If mine are uneven, should my left boob donate more? Or less?

Matt April 26, 2010 at 4:29 pm

I <3 Boobs.

Jane April 26, 2010 at 4:29 pm

Yay for boobies! And for Ben! I heart you!

MsDarkstar April 26, 2010 at 4:29 pm

Oh Ben… all I can say (again) is I Love You!

Kellie April 26, 2010 at 4:29 pm

Only gay men can get away with that move. Well, unless I'm drunk. And the guy is hot. And my husband isn't there. Wait. I take that back. He can be there. He probably wouldn't care. 3 way!!!! :)

If I had a dollar for every gay man that has grabbed my boobs…perhaps I shall donate some, in fact.
