Contest: “The odd vegetarian exhibitionist fetish of a minor internet celebrity”

Submitted by on October 5, 2009 – 7:21 PM7 Comments

Reader Trip gets Ken Jennings to link to the contest — yay!

I am, I suspect, now equated with furries in Jennings’s mind — ew!

If it gets more donations in the door, who cares — whee!   (Trip: Thanks, man!   Ken: It ain’t like that.)

Looking for more Jeopardy!-related content?   Read Bob Harris’s book, or donate to this DC project — huzzah!

    Rule 34: If you can conceive of it, it is a fetish, and there is porn of it on the Internet. Even if there wasn’t porn before you thought of it.

    … I just hope you’re not actually involved, because they say a lot of things about Jersey girls, but I don’t think that’s one of them. Ew.

    My respect for Jennings knows no bounds — his book “Brainiac” is terrific — but Ken, baby, whaddya mean, MINOR Internet celebrity?

  • Talix says:

    Am I wrong for considering Trip Payne to be a far more exciting person than Ken Jennings? I’ve been reading Games magazine for YEARS.

  • LTG says:

    Ken briefly posted on TWoP back when he was first on Jeopardy!, and (like many TV-celebrity-poster) he wrote to ask me how come people were allowed to say such mean things about him on a site that had such strict rules about being nice. Unlike other TV-celebrity-posters, he completely understood the distinction between what people could say about him as a poster and what they could say about him as a TV celebrity, once I pointed it out to him. So, notwithstanding the fact that my friend Jenny was one of his many victims on his meth-fueled Jeopardy! rampage, I think he’s a good egg.

    @LTG, I’d forgotten all about that.

    “… (probably).” Heh.
