And the winner of the Great Pig-Off of 2013 is…
Posted by kjohnson1585 in Animation, Comics, Film, Television, Video Games on September 9, 2013
As Reddit and some Facebook friends predicted, Miss Piggy won the Great Pig-Off of 2013! She swept through her opponents, crushing Piglet, Colonel Spigot, and Porky with ease. She then stared down Waddles into his fat, pudgy, adorable face, and claimed her victory with ease.
I want to thank everyone who took the time to vote, along with all the likes, favorites, shared, retweets and other social media buzzwords that you can do with a project like this. I actually enjoyed putting this feature together, although it was tricky to keep up with the schedule, especially when work started to really pressing down on me. I’m hoping to put together another similar contest a few months down the line, but first I need to figure out a list of creatures to bracket. We shall see.
Thanks again, and congrats to Miss Piggy! It’s no marriage to Kermit, but it is a huge achievement!

A thought-provoking Tumblr Tuesday coming your way:
— The Daily Show straight-up destroys the Stop-and-Frisk argument that it doesn’t have a racial element to it:

— “Midnight” is better than “Blink.” In fact, “Midnight” is the best episode of NuWho ever:

— I compare and contrast a villain from Kung Fu Panda 2 with its television equivalent:

The Great Pig-Off of 2013 – Final Round!
Posted by kjohnson1585 in Animation, Film, Television, Video Games, Writing on August 26, 2013
Well, well, well… this is it. The Great Pig-Off of 2013 has reached the final around. Two hogs remain, and only one will be crowned Prince or Princess Pig of all things ever.
The season finale of Gravity Falls gave Waddles enough staying power to beat back the literary favorite, Wilbur, quite handily. On the other side, Miss Piggy and Porky tussled a bit, but come on, Miss Piggy is, and has always been, a force to be reckoned with. So now we reached the end, the final round, the end of all things. Can Waddles overcome Miss Piggy’s wrath? Or with Miss Piggy demolish Mabel’s pet’s innocence? Vote now. Let’s end this. (Voting ends Friday at midnight.)
Waddles or Miss Piggy?
- Miss Piggy (72%, 13 Votes)
- Waddles (28%, 5 Votes)
