« Meet the Contenders: Race for Commissioner Seat #2 | Main | Star Trek Delayed to 2009; Creepy-Ass Foreign Star Trek Will Have to Suffice In the Meantime. »
Since we here at the Mercury hate to work (especially on national holidays like Valentine’s), today we competed in an office-wide challenge entitled, “WHO CAN DECORATE THE BEST VALENTINE COOKIE?” We were provided with several Betty Crocker icings, sprinkles, gumdrops, and… what do you call those icing pencil things? Those icing pencil things. Then we went to work on a bunch of plain heart-shaped sugar cookies. Upon completion, we lined them all up, and had our new art director Mark Searcy pick the top five. Which he did!
NOW IT’S YOUR TURN TO JUDGE! Which Mercury employee decorated the best Valentine cookie? Is it…





Cast your vote below! Polling ends at 10 am tomorrow (Friday) morning! First place winner will receive a new Cadillac. Second place? A set of steak knives. Third place—THEY’RE FIRED. (And though I know Blogtown readers are generally a shy lot, feel free to leave a more detailed critique of these cookies in the comments below.)
OUR COOKIE POLL IS NOW CLOSED. THANK YOU FOR VOTING, AND SEE THE RESULTS HERE!
The pug one is the best.
Where's the Matt Davis "The Lack of Oversight For Armed Private Security Officers is a Travesty" cookie?
Last time I saw it, Beaton, it was about eight inches up your ass.
i'll let the pug contingent speak for itself.
"your cat is Huckabee
compared to Obama pug. i am the Karl Rove of Olive's campaign
i heard your cat fathered a litter of mixed-raced kittens. drop out now and endorse Olive
it's your only way to save face"
-Ezra
I did not say that!
All I do is listen to emo all day. I don't even know who Karl Rove is. Is he the bass player for Fall Out Boy?
That sounds like the desperate post of a loser. What's next, you are going to claim that Olive didn't earn her Purple Heart from her swift boat service?
You're tough to compete with, Ezra, with your inexhaustable well of snappy pop culture references, scruffy hipster looks, and impeccable music taste. I don't know what else to say, besides... I couldn't support my cookie if I didn't passionately believe it was the right thing to do. I'm gonna do everything i can to make my case, and the voters get to decide.
My ass crack is the Mike Gravel of this contest.
Dropout of this race and endorse Olive, it is your only hope to save face. If you are lucky, she might eat your cookie as a show of mutual respect.
Don't give yourself too hard a time, Alison. That pug is some impressive work. I gave you a second place though, because your alternate title is what really tied it to the holiday theme for me.
Sounds like Matt Davis' cookie is the Ron Paul of the race... up someone's ass and never a contender.
Yes.
pugs jumped the shark.
That photo does nothing to display my handiwork with a butter knife on that crack.
Hey... let's not make this a species war.
Though, Olive is a veteran after all, are you American or not?
Yes, T - that crack was MUCH more impressive in real life. Pugs' bulgy eyes lend themselves to icing much better.
You and I both know that ANY TIME you involve a pug in any way it's fuckin over.
Hillary ..... needs a pug.
The pug is impressive, yes, but I'm a cat person, so I had to go with Allison's masterpiece.
And I'm no gynaecologist, but, Marjorie, if you got blue spots around your vaheena, I think it's time to seek medical attention. Maybe quickly.
You can tell that I'm being academic about it because I used the letters "ae" when spelling gynaecologist. Your guarantee of brains and class!
NOTHING I mean NOTHING say's happy valentines day like squirting Vaheena.
Am I right or am I right.
At 7:30 pm, with 63 percent of all precincts reporting, I can see that the writing is on the wall. Therefore I hereby concede the race for "Best Decorated Valentine Cookie." I believe that by staying in this race, I can only steal votes from the person I consider to be the best and most creative cookie decorator. Thank you to all the loyal supporters of "I Like Three-Somes," and in order to preserve party unity, I implore each and every one of you to switch your votes to the cookie that can pull this country together—and that cookie is "Ejaculating Vagina." Thank you, good night, and GOD BLESS AMERICA!
"Pug Love" cannot be happy with "Ejaculating Vagina's" sudden surge in the polls. It just goes to show that while pugs can capture the early voters (the elderly, women and minorities), ejaculating vaginas have a huge base of support (i.e. drunks, sexual deviants) that prefer to vote late.
Ejaculating vagina?????
You are a right wing traitor, Steven. I bet you think winter blast 06 was an inside job too?
PUGS ............. yes we can

That pug is a work of art. Close second on the vagina though. Man I love me some vagina.
