I have received a prank TESTIMONIAL


Earlier, Skepticon had a contest to see who most deserved a prank HONOR. Despite the fact that I lobbied hard to see the prank PRESTIGIOUS AWARD go to the more deserving Matt Dillahunty, Heina Dadabhoy, or Keith Lowell Jensen, my indefatigable charisma was unstoppable, and I won. I’m like a force of nature, I guess.

Would you like to see a photo of my prank PRIZE? Of course you would, and I’m going to show it to you whether you want to see it or not.

Are you humbled? Envious? Wondering how you can overcome my overwhelming lead in the category of Giant Cardboard Penises awarded? You can’t. I am now become a singular star in the skeptic/atheist movement. You can only gaze in awe.

I hope Heina, Keith, and Matt aren’t so crushed that they are ashamed to attend Skepticon on 11 November, because I want to lord it over them. I’ll probably bring this awesome prank ACCOLADE with me so I can wave it at the losers. It might also be handy when I want to ask a question at the talks — instead of raising my hand, I’ll loft my Giant Cardboard Penis high. No one will be able to overlook me.

Now I have to go add this to my CV.

May 2016: Awarded Giant Cardboard Penis by Skepticon.

I’m also thinking this will be a useful rhetorical tool. Next time a creationists responds to my insightful criticisms with the question, What do you think you are? Some kind of biologist?, I’ll be able to riposte with “Yes, I am, and I also have a Giant Cardboard Penis.” That’ll silence them. It’ll silence everybody.

P.S. The seam in the bark of the tree behind me was purely fortuitous. Didn’t even notice until I uploaded the photo and my imagination went to work.

    I’ve never heard of this award, but I’m sure you’ve done what you needed to do to earn it. I think that crown of thorns could legally be called a “Christian Tickler.” It describes their sexual mindset so well. Congratulations!

    Is that cardboard penis circumcised?

    It has that look.

    That’s quite the French Tickler you have there. Of course the prank really is on you! Cause that means your penis is barbed – like a cat!!!!

    Love the crown of thorns. Is it a new birth control method?

    Seems to be a primitive version of the ‘kali’s teeth bracelet’ that is currently commercially available.

    (incidentally, I’d be quite cautious about googling for that term)

    I was thinking of this as a suitable soundtrack, particularly the second verse.
