    WITCHER "GET PLOUGHED LIKE A WHORESON" 2 CONTEST


    I have one (1) copy of The Witcher 2 to giveaway!

    To enter, please PM me your best medieval insult making use of the term "ploughed". It can be for any degree of slight - perhaps your neighbour has taken a shite on your cow, or perhaps he is a filthy elf-lover. This contest closes 1 hour and 45 minutes from this post, at 7 PM Pacific. Points will be awarded for creativity, appropriateness of insult to slight, and ploughiness.

    You don't want to be the bastard son of a goatploughing, do you? Then enter!

    Just in case this story wasn't shared yet, it needs to be, because it was epic.

    So, Idolninja was in the process of buying himself a game as we are wont to do during the Summer Sale, like at the purchase window about to finalize, and asks some fellow PA gents about the game. Big Isy pulls him up short and goes "I think you should watch this video of the game first ... Wait, let me find the link." While IdolNinja waits, Big Isy hits him upside the dome with a gift of the game ... and the message with the game:
    idol,
    here is the video
    Best Wishes,
    isy

    That should be like in the hall of fame of master ninja Steam Sale giftin's.

    @Iolo is one hell of a classy ninja. His Borderlands Steamgifts giveaway came and went and, alas, there was no notice I had won.

    Minutes later he sends me a friend request, gifts me Borderlands, and congratulates me on losing the contest. Thank you again, Iolo. :D

    I'm hoping that it'll be a daily at some point, although I'm making sure I have 24$ left in my steam wallet just in case it doesn't go for less.

    I'm at 28$ right now :(

    From Dust at that price has me tempted, but I still don't want to give the impression that I have even tacitly supported Ubisoft in any endeavour whatsoever.

    In fact, I probably shouldn't even be mentioning that it's still available at that price. I may edit this post out later on principle.

    Kinda says something about one's spending habits when everything that's currently on sale that looks good is already owned, though. Well, least it means I won't be spending much else.

    Just got back from the Amazing Spiderman, and I have no idea how L4D2 won that vote over Portal 2.

    And by a ~20% margin as well! I am guessing it is the multiplayer aspect of it. Portal 2 has MP, but only 2 player co-op.

    Didn't really matter to me, as the only game in that vote I didn't own was L4D2. I still voted for Portal 2. Zombies just bore me. I know I am a bad person.

    EDIT: I enjoy short sentences. Short sentences are cool. The best sentences are short.

    Many entries! Turns out everyone really likes ploughing. Go figure.

    joshgotro starts us off with a question. Just what cod is he referring to? Is it a metaphor? Or does he live in a very lonely village?
    If I see you near my sheep again, I'll plough your cod from here to here!"

    [pointing from ass to his chin]

    testsubject23 has had some awkward dinner parties in the past.
    My entry into the Witcher 2 contest... a phrase for polite dinner company, when you're not fond of someone's spouse:
    "Your wife, sirrah, is a festering midden ploughed by the devil himself and sown with the bastard seed of a score of lepers!"

    cardboard delusions makes sure not just to punch you, but your parentage too.
    When your neighbor leaves your fence open when he borrows a tool from the shed and your sheep get out you can surely yell at him "Ye've got the wit of your father, who married that wench of a mother after letting those dwarves plough her fields like drunken cattle."

    EvilMonkey shoots straight for the classics. And I must admit, they're classics for a reason.
    Thine face is not worth ploughing. - Henry V

    Noizlanif wants you to hit him as hard as you can.
    You blasted idiot, when I say hit me, I mean it. I ploughed your wife harder than that while your children watched! NOW HIT ME!

    Taramoor ensures that even though you may have snuck about him in the dark, you will remember him.
    You know, for all the battles that have been fought and all the men that I've seen die, and all the horrible things you've done to me prior to stabbing me in the gut as I lay sleeping, I can still take solace in one simple truth.

    I once ploughed your mother like the fallow field of dead crops and broken dreams she was laying in when she shat you into this world from her disease-riddled and maggot-infested womb.

    [dies]

    galenblade's entry is, I think, much enhanced by the note about what contest it's for. Imagine it as an exclamation, and things get much more delightful.
    Ploughing

    You mammering jackanape! May the hexies plough an en-rank-ened furrow upon your pox-addled mother!

    Mackenzier would like to tell you something over the din of a filled court.
    Whilst deep in my cups late one evening, a lustful tart had the temerity to call to question the virility of my manhood after I had dismissed her overt and continual advances. Quaffing the dregs of my wine, I turned to her and declared 'Wench, thy furrow has been ploughed with such frequency t'would be like throwing a sausage through an open portcullis.'

    SanderJK is not fond of my features, apparently.
    Your face looks as if it was ploughed with rusty implements by a drunk serf and then trampled by a dozen knights!

    ToyD would like to remind you to stay the hell away from his daughter.
    Lad, if yer gunna try ta plough me lass, this mule and I will plough ya like a rocky field. Hard an rough.

    ebotastic is a god-fearing man, at the end of the day, and will make sure proper due to Him is given even when telling you what a waste of flesh you are.
    "'Twas a dark day in our ever luminous heavens the day your da ploughed his pole 'twixt your mother's nethers and made you."

    sparkle has a hell of a one-two punch if you get on his badside. Not only do you suck, so does your wife.
    Thou wouldst fail to discover the nether places of the sauciest wench in the kingdom while I ploughed the most chaste maiden to madness, as verily thine own addled wife can attest.

    Polaritie has strong words for any man or woman who dares to cheat on him.
    "You ploughed field! I'll not raise a crop I haven't sown! Begone!"

    or

    "You're a salted field ploughed by another's hand and sown with another's seed!"

    JAEF knows a thing or two about cod-ploughing himself it seems.
    How dare you say such things to my sister you beslubbering cod-ploughing fustilarian! One more word and the only thing you'll be laying with tonight are worms in a shallow grave!

    And finally, Masume thinks you need to call in backup to have the slightest masculinity.
    "Ye couldnt plant a seed in a woman if you had two bulls to help you plough!"

    So who wins?

    Well, all of you have armed me with some cruel words the next time I go out drinking. But I have always had an infinite fondness for the notion of being shat into the world, and so I have to hand it to @Taramoor ! Congratulations to him, and thank you to all you filthy elf-ploughers for entering the contest!

    Just got back from the Amazing Spiderman, and I have no idea how L4D2 won that vote over Portal 2.

    Probably because Portal 2 was literally already 75% off either yesterday or the first day. And it was one of the main deals so it was up for awhile. I'm glad L4D2 won because I finally was able to get it for 5 bucks.

    And then out of the blue, @iolo sends me a consolation gift for not winning his contest...the game itself.
