I am looking for the perfect DU post.

One that will get lots of nominations and suggestions. I do not have a warehouse full of monkeys to eventually achieve this.

Suggestions?

4. Sorry. One of my monkeys was obviously over-enthused.

If only I could disable that "Post Message" button on their computers.

21. Oscar was the very best I've seen here yet

It took me more than an hour to read through the posts because I was laughing so hard.

Did anyone ever figure out exactly what Oscar was?

38. OMG how did I miss that first time round?

That was the funniest goddamn thing I have ever read.

This will be the first night it spent here.
I refuse to tie it up but I can't let it
stay in because it lived outside. It's not
housetrained. It eats anything that we've
given it, which is at least one good thing,
although then again maybe not. I'd like to
shave the fur off because it smells so bad
but it's winter. It smells like a combnation
of burned rubber and bad potatoes. I wouldn't
want to try to give it a bath. It has a small
kind of head, flatish, and not very sharp looking
teeth, brown, but lots of them, but strong looking
jaws and very big square sort of ears. Jesus, it
just jumped over the coffee table and caught a moth
about four feet in the air!

6. Try "Hillary will be the next president"

it's not an OP anywhere that I know of, but it will get noticed, but not in a good way.

11. The nerve. The clear winner is Oscar--and I never posted in the kudzu thread.

Therefore, it can't possibly be perfect! :evilgrin:

18. That's easy

Kidnap Nance Greggs, deny her food and water until she writes a column, and then
you publish it under your name before letting her go free.

What's so complicated about that?

19. That's a great idea...

and I should do it before waterboarding becomes a dark art again.

Sorry Nance, if you are reading this. I would never intend anyone harm. Keep up the great work!

23. combination of the following:

1. kittens or puppies (pics required)
2. smoking (doesn't matter if yer fer it or agin it)
3. Impeachment (yes or no - doesn't matter)
4. most recent republic outrage
5. Dems backing down or not backing down only to back down later

example:

SMOKING KITTENS CALL FOR IMPEACHMENT
Republicans caught with pussy (cats) in smoking lounge and demand Democrats apologize for using kittens as a political prop. Reid and Pelosi stated they would not apologize, moments later they apologized for not apologizing sooner.

35. Mention Chavez being in Iran, how he hates America and why we should love him

and only read good press about him because bad press is all fake (it's kind of like a religion, liking chavez that is - mention that in OP as well).

Then bring up something about Hillary (like how she is wearing a blue dress today or something).

You will get lots of replies, lots of recommends, and suggestions that you need to read up more - but only from the American Chavez Associations web sites.... :rofl: :hide:

41. Of course something you write...

I even kick a "Please Delete This Thread" if it is by WilliamPitt.

I am talking about something that a no-talent like me could write that would get 41 or so replies and 8 recommendations...
