Subject: Gross-Out Challenge Contest, Part Doo
Written By: Red Ant on 01/08/07 at 10:49 pm
Johnny D hosted the first ever Grossest Parody Contest number over two years ago. It's time we have another!
Submit to this thread your grossest parody no later than midnight Sunday, January 14th.
The rules are as follows:
~ Parody content has to be about something that many people find fairly disgusting. Toilet humor is good material here, and other topics that bring up bile in your throat or make your friends dry heave are also welcome.
~ Parodies from the first gross-out competition are ineligible for entry.
~ You can't vote for your own parody.
~ Once you've voted, you cannot change your vote.
~ You have to comment on all parodies entered that have comments enabled.
~ Vote for your top 3 picks: 1st place gets 3 points, 2nd 2, and 3rd, 1.
~ In the event of a tie, SOTM tiebreak rules will apply.
~ If you are DQed, I will send you a cat turd via snail mail so it's good and ripe by the time it arrives. ;D
Due to other contests' end dates, the voting deadline will be midnight Friday, January 26th.
Any questions feel free to ask.

So a parody about Gwen Stefani would be appropriate here

Ha Ha! I hope you're not serious, but if you are...
I knew this would come up, and almost wrote a rule about it. Most everyone I know wants to puke when they think of boy bands, but simply writing a boy-band satire isn't likely to disgust anyone (though TOS probably will). Crapping on a crappy OS isn't really in the spirit of this contest, unless you include lines like "I pinched one off on K-Fed's head and then vomited onto his infected pimply face": that's prime (for THIS contest!) ;D

As many people know I am totally against all sorts of Poop/Barf/Piss/Fart Parodies. (And like Hell, am I going to start writing them now) I do, however, have parodies that can be considered disgusting on diffrent terms.
Would a parody about Teacher Student Relations "Learning Love" OR "The Teacher Went And Asked Me Right Out" be considered disgusting? I find it quite gross, but would it fit the criteria?
I also have parodies about catching your mother nude while looking up porn online, "I Saw Mom While Surfing Internet"
Illegal By Youth, Sex: "Underage Strippers Are Never Good"
Incest: "When A Man Loves His Cousin"
Cannibalism: "Severing Skills"
AND
The Disgusting Behavior Of The Homeless: "Mr. Bum"
Would any of these work as disgusting? Or does it specifically have to be "Poop/Barf/Piss/Fart Parodies"?

It's not limited to toilet humor at all. Seeing your mom nude on the 'net is something that is pretty gross, and I've seen clips from Bumfights, so that would work as well. Severed heads and blood would probably be sufficiently disgusting, too.
As for the rest, and judgging on titles alone, I think they are more shocking than disgusting, but I'm not going to police entries too tightly for content.

I think When A Man Loves His Cousin is pretty gross. . .cannabilism not so much, different yes, but not gross. . .When a Man Loves His Cousin, deffinitely gross, especially when the original song was a magical love song played at weddings.

The 'Olestra Has Some Side Effects' Song
The link in the intro comment is busted. I'll see if I can find a sound file to go with TOS.

Red,
I decided quite a while ago that I couldn't afford the time these contests require as far as reading all the other submissions, but I'm considering this contest...depending on the rules criteria and how long we have to read and evaluate the other writer's submissions...January and February are really hectic months for me on my job. But "Gross parodies", well, they are one of my specialties. But I must know first if the site "content" rules apply to this contest as well and if the entry must be one that is posted on the main site to be considered.
Thanks,
Paul Robinson

Everyone has until midnight Friday, January the 26th to vote, at which point the contest will be called.

Well, if you are thinking of entering I must point out that the entry date closed on the 14th, so unfortunately you are too late for this contest. The reason I only allowed 1 week to enter and less than 2 to vote is that aside from ABC, SOTM, and Ages of Amiright (~6 month competition) are all on right now, and shortly we'll have a SOTM Wildcard round in addition to SOTY voting. This competition needed to be over before all of that madness (I meant fun ;)) gets into full swing.
As for "content", you lost me a bit there, but only AmiRight listed parodies would have been eligible anyway (that's sort of an unwritten rule in all comps here AFAIK).

Okie-dokie...It appears I mis-read the time-line insofar as the entry date deadline. Not a problem, Jack...I really shouldn't enter any contests anyway...I tend to procrastinate on pre-requisite obligations and back myself into a corner time-wise, so I'm better off on the side-lines, really.
My "content" inquiry was referring to "sexual" or even "anatomical" references...the site criteria was a lot more liberal in 2004 when I won the first "Grossest Parody" contest - I don't think my entry in that affair would have been posted originally if today's rules were applied. I dunno...I won't post a link or name it because I wouldn't want to corrupt impressionable minds with my parody lyrics from that piece...If you are curious and feel like hunting the OS was by "the Guess Who" and the first letter of the OS is "A". That should discourage casual thrill-seekers...lol...
Now, if you're so-inclined to search it out and take a gander perhaps you could tender an opinion as to whether it would withstand today's level of scrutiny...I'd be interested in your take on it, if you care to weigh in with one.
Thanks for the info, Jack, I appreciate the clarifications.
