Bling Blingo!

For months, Golf Widow has been imploring us to join “Blingo” which is a Google-powered search engine wherein you search for things, and randomly (like Bingo), you are rewarded with prizes (you get bling, hence Blingo). I detest bling and bingo, so I said, “no,” to “Blingo,” until I finally remembered what it says in the Internet User’s Catechism:

The Fourth Protocol Thou shalt honor thy Golf Widow and thy Suburban Island that it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the internet

What does this mean? This means that we should fear and love Oprah that we may not despise our betters and masters, nor provoke them to anger, but give them honor, serve and obey them, and hold them in love and esteem.

Also, from Internet Dogmatics , written by the Artist formerly known as the Tattooed Nanny:

I cannot by my own reason or understanding comprehend why you do not just do what you’re told, bitch.

Today, I went onto Blingo to search a user name from Buzz Net because I knew the user took it from Greek Mythology and I wanted to refresh my memory on that particular character. I won ten dollars for iTunes for myself and another ten dollars for Golf Widow.

There is a little red button like this:

Blingo

If you click that, sign up and use it, and then win? I win, too. It is easy or you can bet your ass I would not be doing it.

Please excuse the course language, my graduate course work brings it on.

is this like the iTunes I got when I signed up for the Army?

You call this a pyramid scheme? I've seen better pyramids come out of a dog's ass. However, this is decisively more appealing to watch (though the painting above is rather suspect). I'm glad to see you're blogging. Being redundant is totally in right now so we're both in vogue. Strike a pose, those nothing to it.

I always learn something from the great Spritopias.

Blingo is Great.. I found another website like Blingo powered by Ask.com called SearchChips.com. I think it's easier to win there because there seems to be much less people using it.

Sign up with me:

Thanks!
