Subject: Entry Thread for ABC5(A) Deadline: 2/26

Written By: Matthias on 02/11/09 at 11:14 am

That's right ladies and gents Stuart said I can run this contest anyway I want to run it and I've got big plans for this boy, yes indeed I do. (Actually I have no plans whatsoever, I just want some more people to read my parodies starting with certain letters that I haven't got any people to read yet)


Please submit your ABC4(A) entries here.

Don't forget to include the title of your parody in your submission

:D  So I guess the purpose here is to submit parodies to read, each round going alphabetically, and this round is the A's.  Not counting articles like "a" or "an", I only have two parodies that start with A, and I'll submit this one:

Anatevka Dreamin'

hmm, struggling to find an "A" that doesn't start with the word "A"

I assume parodies starting with the word "A" are ineligible? - or not? (unless of course the second word starts with A)

and just to mess with your brain, this parody should muddy the waters...

The A A A - A The The The

So it's being brought back in it's old format?  I thought we were going to two letters at a time to avoid mini competitions. . .I will choose my "A" entry when I get back to my home computer and I have more time.

I don't mind mini competitions... "PQ" and "XYZ" are the only problems I see with the old format, so I'm linking those together.

When is the deadline for this?  I have to decide if I want to dive into another contest.  I mean...I WANT to...but I have to decide if I will.  You know?

I'll probably get in hot water for trying to get into this with my subtracted web time, but screw it...read my parody, damn it.
