Social Entropy Child's Play Dinner Contest

Robert KhooRobert Khoo Registered User, ClubPA staff
edited November 2007 in Social Entropy++
Every year we have a "mystery contributor" that purchases a block of tickets for the Child's Play Dinner with the sole intent of giving them away. He actually never SHOWS up to the dinner himself, but I assure you he is a stud.

The details of the dinner can be found here.

So here is a contest I am proposing to you, SE++.

I would like a poem of some kind about Child's Play. It can be a Haiku, Limerick or ANYTHING. Use your imagination. The winner, judged by me, will be awarded a pair of tickets to the event. The deadline is THIS SUNDAY AT MIDNIGHT PST.

Eligibility:

1. You and your date must actually be able to attend the dinner in semi formal to formal wear. If you transfer the tickets to someone, please please please make sure they are able to go.

Oh, and happy thanksgiving everyone!

Some guy.

    Give money to child's play
    I promise it's not gay
    they're holding a dinner
    so it won't make you thinner
    you can bring all your nippers
    and we'll go kill some strippers
    and if you don't care at all
    you can choke on my ball (I only have one)

    I'm a writer, and I can't beat Tube's.

    I also couldn't make it to Seattle.

    Good luck, duders.

    There once was a man from Seattle
    Who'd beat you with a ping pong paddle
    He's helping the sick kids
    Don't call him a prick, kids
    Or he'll stomp you like a herd of cattle.

    Can I enter and then give my tickets to someone else on the forums? Because, you know, I'm kind of in the wrong hemisphere to attend myself.

    Maybe you'd ask a few less if you were really so confident >=(

    Redi is gonna win it all and we're gonna auction the hell out of this thing.

    okay awesome

    Limerick entry

    Two dudes nicknamed Gabe and Tycho
    Set out to prove gamers aren't psycho
    They set up Child's Play
    and to this very day
    They've allowed tons of sick kids to play ICO

    I'm going to do something epic but I have to go clean the house now. Here's a sneak preview of the chorus

    CHILD'S PLAY
    it's all for the kids okay?
    Anyone can bring a smile to their day
    CHILD'S PLAY
    it's all for the kids okay?

    Once there was a girl named Sue
    She knew of this fellow named Khoo
    In a hospital alone
    She called on the phone
    Hoping he would one day answer

    Once there was a fellow named Khoo
    He had never heard of a girl named Sue
    In his office alone
    He picked up the phone
    And found out Sue had cancer

    Khoo was surprised, khoo was sad
    Khoo got angry, and loud, and mad.
    "This little girl is eight, and having no fun
    No games, no toys, no rays of sun!
    I must help this Sue!"

    So Khoo got on the web, he posted a post
    Of a magnificent, spectacular, dinner he'd host
    "Come one, come all!
    Come to our ball!"
    Posted the man named Khoo

    "Bring us your dollars, bring us you cash!
    Bring us the money you stored in your stash!
    It's for a good cause, trust me, it's true!"
    All of this, for a girl named Sue.

    Khoo realized quickly and fast
    That he collected way too much cash
    "Way too much, for one girl named Sue!
    What to do, what do to!" exclaimed poor Khoo.

    Then he got an idea, it came in a flash!
    He knew what do to with all that cash!
    He would give it to many girls, many boys!
    He would buy them presents, games, and toys!

    Happy was he, this man named Khoo.
    That he did something good, for a girl named Sue.
