Politics with a Side of Funny: Tweeple to Follow
Labels: #TCOT, the silver flabber, u.s. politics 14 TRIPLE DOG DARE YA TO COMMENT
If you are still laboring under the impression that conservative politicos are boring, stale, and straight-jacket serious, it's time you tap into the Twittervein and refresh your mindset- because it's dead wrong. To facilitate this process, I'd like to present the Silver Flabber Award to the following witty conservatives on Twitter:
@pinkelephantpun
@Linc4Justice
@Morticia626
@jimmiebjr
@RightGirl
@Michelle_Moore
@mortimas
@RightMichigan
@Leaningright
@blogsofwar
If you are not following them already, you. are. wrong. Period.
Oh, and to all my lovely tweeps: I love each and every one of you, so don't feel bad if you're not on the Best Flabber list. If you are a funny political tweeter/blogger, I'll come to my senses one day and notice your brilliance. If you'd like to speed up the process, send me a DM or @AJae reply.

Wow. A Silver Flabber... I'm... speechless.
I'd like to thank my mom and my dad and Haley... you are the wind beneath my wings.
I'd like to thank... who turned up that music? I'm not done yet. TURN IT DOWN! WHO PUT THESE GREEN M&Ms IN THIS BOWL? I TOLD YOU NO GREEN M&Ms!

Sad, but this isn't the first time I've been nominated for something with "flab" in the title.
If you need me for anything, I'll be on the treadmill, crying.

I'm pretty speechless myself Ajae. 'Tis an honor.
And Nick - I do what I do. Thank you both for recognizing my brilliance. ;-)

Such an honor I'm given. But, yes, the "flab thing". If you need me I'll be next to RightGirl, watching her work out, with a box of Twinkies. ;)

Tsk, tsk. You're falling prey to a common misconception of the word "flabber." Reference the following:
1.[n.] blabber
a word...which is...used when blubber is an understatement.
V.S.
1. [n.] flabber
An elite force that finds and quarantines the best of web for extremely cool people who are too lazy to surf the net and find said cool sites for themselves. [abridged from the Urban Dictionary]
But, um, can I have some of your twinkies? Pretty please?

What? We aren't Gold Flabber Award material? ;)
December 8, 2008 8:40 PM
Silver is the new gold (gold is so passe). ;)
The Silver Flabber is the top webby award for outstanding achievement in witty political smack-talk.

Cool! Thanks! Pass her some of the Twinkies, 'kay?

You may have all the Twinkies you can consume, AJae. And thank you! I feel all embiggened!

*ahem*
Where's my name on the list? I thought I was loved. I thought I was special, but I see now it was all a dirty, filthy lie!
*runs away sobbing, arms flailing*
December 8, 2008 11:16 PM
Looks at list again... *blink blink* Oh, there I am.
Heh, my bad.
But see, I'm not FIRST on the list. Why am I under pinkelephantpun? Why does SHE get to be first?
How the humanity, the pain. I can't take this hurt anymore.

Lincoln, you'll always be one step behind me, love. Please understand that. The sooner you come to terms, the better.

I'll never accept it! NEVAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Firstly, Jimmie, you're going to have to buy stock in Twinkies since I'll never have my fill.
Secondly, hush you two! Yes, you. You know who I'm talking about, don't give me that innocent look...you both know I'd be lost without either of ya. :D
The Silver Flabber list is not ranked in any particular way-you're either good enough for one or you're not.
Period.
