Calling All Egos: THE ADONIS AWARDS

Post by Zaia »

Think you're hot stuff? Want to show off that body but are trying to keep your Id in check? Do you wish that you could cover this board with photos of that gorgeous bod of yours?

Well, have we got the contest for YOU!

Introducing the first-ever SD.Net ADONIS AWARDS!

(For those of you who are unfamiliar with the term/hate Greek mythology:
A·don·is, n.
1. Greek Mythology. A strikingly beautiful youth loved by Aphrodite.
2. often 'adonis,' A very handsome young man.)


So, if you'd like to enter (and you know you do, you sex-ay thang), please submit a photograph of a shirtless you below, and a panel of mixed judges shall decide at a date to be determined later who the victor shall be. If you would like to enter multiple photographs of yourself to show different angles, poses, etc, you are welcome to do so, as long as the pictures all show your sexy torso nekkid!

If you don't have any pics ready to go now, find a buddy/pal/SO/prostitute to snap a couple photos and enter soon! Don't let one of the other hotties on the board take YOUR championship title from you! :wink:

A shirtless picture? I sense females being able to trump this.

A-HA! But you see, this board is a place of logic. You have to actually PROVE that supposition, and we always accept visual evidence over dialogue. :P

No way. I go to the gym 4 times a week and you will *never* see me with a shirt off in anywhere remotely approaching a public place.

Not to pry, but why not? I'm an old guy now, and I'm sure nobody wants to see my 34-year old body, but when I was in university I used to run around shirtless all the time. I got kicked out of cafeteria more than once for swaggering in without a shirt. Rebecca used to say I was an exhibitionist.

If I posted a topless picture of myself. many stomachs would turn, the contaminated thread would immediately be HOSed, and my title would be changed to something vaguely unflattering.

...damn, I wish I had a digital camera on hand. :P

She was right! :wink:

And Vympel, if I worked out 4 times a week, I'd never wear a shirt. Hell, even with not having worked out in 15 years, I'm not inhibited. But, no camera; and at 36, dunno if I'd qualify for this....

I can't take a proper one until I get my camera back sometime next week or tomorrow. So maybe I'll be the first to enter 8)

Remnants of low self-esteem- when I was overweight- I had a gut and I swear I had what was approaching man-boobs. I only recently worked up the balls to start wearing tighter t-shirts (after exhortation from a female friend from seeing me in one at a store)- it's slow going. I'm about average now- an insignificant amount of soft remaining, but not really 'chiselled' or 'built' or anything- yet (hopefully).

The camera doesn't love me and I don't have THAT much of an ego....so it's never gonna happen.

When you implement an "Older fellow" division, I might break out the washboard. Otherwise, no way in hell I'm going to even try to keep pace with you lithe young teens out there.
Note: I'm semi-retired from the board, so if you need something, please be patient.

They say, "the tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots." I suppose it never occurred to them that they are the tyrants, not the patriots. Those weapons are not being used to fight some kind of tyranny; they are bringing them to an event where people are getting together to talk. -Mike Wong

But as far as board culture in general, I do think that young male overaggression is a contributing factor to the general atmosphere of hostility. It's not SOS and the Mess throwing hand grenades all over the forum- Red
