[MoSB] Think of something to do and then do it

Day 3,234, 03:20 • Published in United Kingdom

• by Ministry of Entertainment

Huh? What? WHAT?! Whaddayamean Horice’s impeachment didn’t go through and we’re still in government? That was two weeks ago. You mean we still have to keep coming up with ~~this shit~~ interesting badger-related articles until a new government in place? ~~Bollocks~~ Oh noes.

Err … hi! Here at the Ministry of Stacking Badgers we’ve been diligently stacking our badgers while fighting pesky Swedes. You know, just like all proper, patriotic, involved members of the community should be doing.

However, it’s come to my attention that - while we’ve all been distracted performing our civic duties - the level of larks and lulz in the eUK has dropped a little. This is no good. It’s no good at all. After, what are we as a nation if not one that’s rubbish at fighting but excellent at laughing in the face of all-comers to the extent that we barely notice when we’re wiped? Exactly.

So, this can mean only one thing - it’s time for a ZEBRA (Zany Emergency Badger-Related Article).

Granted, we did try to come up with a competition a week or so ago to give you all something to play with. But, for whatever reason, everyone apart from CheetahCurtis decided to ignore it. Fair enough. If you don’t want to take part in our jolly japes that’s entirely your prerogative. We’re not IN ANY WAY bitter about it. You can do (or not do) whatever the hell you like - it’s none of our business.

The only, and therefore winning, entry in the last MoSB competition. Congratulations to CheetahCurtis.

However, upon reflection it may have been something to do with the competition being a bit too complicated and time-consuming for ~~a bunch of people with the attention span of a gnat~~ the good people of the eUK. So, with that in mind, this time we’ve decided to come up with something a bit simpler and easier to get involved in. In fact, we’ve come up with not one but two - count ‘em! - competitions for you to get your laughing gear around.

Competition 1 - count the badgers
Simply count the badgers. The first person to comment with the correct answer wins a prize*:

How many badgers are there?

Competition 2 - find the badger
There is a badger hidden among the plethora of zebras’ arses below. Find it and post the grid reference in the comments - the first person to do so correctly wins a prize*. Oh, and no cheating - only one guess per person please.

Ou est le badger?

BONUS competition!
While perusing the eUK media recently I happened to notice that our glorious (deputy) leader posted a competition of his own. With a proper prize of 5,000 CC as well!.
