BLINGEE CONTEST!

G20 Bros Psyched For Frat Semi-Formal

Well this is just a great photo, right? It’s the part of a shoot when the photographer tells everyone to “go nuts.” For Italy’s Silvio Berlusconi this means “molest everyone,” while China’s Hu Jintao decides to look as boring as possible and the Arab guy gives a shady, mischievous look, just to freak out Americans. There is too much to say about this, so LET’S JUST DO THIS SHIT: BLINGEE CONTEST. RIGHT NOW. TIME. TO. THROW. DOWN. Send submissions (links and/or attachments) to tips@wonkette.com, subject line “I <3 GORDON BROWN’S ANAL POISON,” by 4:30 ET (ONE HOUR) 5:00 ET and we will post some of the best. The prize is an “iPod.” [TNR]

    New World BRO-der!

  2. AngryBlakGuy says at 3:34 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    …is that Michael Steele in the upper right hand corner?!

  3. The Cold Sea says at 3:34 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Berlusoni: Looka ata me! I’m a negro!

  4. Wild and ..er..crazy. Embarrassing. A little.

    So, that’s how they ‘go crazy’ in Saudi Arabia, eh? Looks like he wants to draw his drapes for greater anonymity.

  5. Barry is just a retard like the rest of us, which is partly why we love him. Is that so wrong?

  6. AngryBlakGuy says at 3:37 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    …“and the Arab guy gives a shady, mischievous look, just to freak out Americans.”

    I disagree, that looks more like his “Flirtatious come and kiss me you bad, bad boy” look!

  7. Fox n Fiends says at 3:38 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    We’re still rich! High-five!

  8. Our Nazi network servers at work won’t let me access blingee. So here is my official submission.

  9. magic titty says at 3:39 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    So Gordon Brown looks that stuffy all the time, huh?
    The Cold Sea: Win.

  10. AngryBlakGuy:

    George Jefferson

  11. freakishlystrong says at 3:41 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Real World G-20

  12. jagorev says at 3:42 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    And Gordon Brown continues to be the most boring man on earth.

  13. Nerdalicious says at 3:42 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Sitcom for the cool thumbs up dudes in the middle, anyone?

  14. Bearbloke says at 3:43 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    BRING ON THE BLINGEES!!! Just watch out for the Soviet judges, they always give low scores…

  15. Nerdalicious says at 3:44 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Keep the red & white headress dude in full eye shot whatever you do!

    Can anyone guess which countries are legalizing marijuana? (hint middle 3)

  16. Oh, and Gordon? Two words: ‘Brown Nose’.

  17. Delicious says at 3:45 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Somebody has their hand down Medvedev’s trousers.

  18. randomsausage says at 3:46 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    wife swapping to surely follow later this evening

  19. Texan Bulldoggette says at 3:46 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    That pose reminds me of Barry’s speechwriter groping Hillz’s cardboard cutout. Where exactly is Barry’s left hand?

  20. queeraselvis v 2.0 says at 3:47 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    AngryBlakGuy: Rush: Jimmie Walker.

  21. Nerdalicious says at 3:47 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Yeah Hu isn’t down with thumbs up smiling shit. “Rest of G20 Summiteers Fat, Lazy & Hepped Up On That Legalized Marijuana, Me Hu, I here to wook on evil plot with Medvedev to subjugate the woold.”

  22. SayItWithWookies says at 3:49 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    This means the US, Italy and Russia will be invading the Ukraine at dawn.

  23. Nerdalicious says at 3:49 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Texan Bulldoggette:
    Berlusoni’s thumbs up & HUGE smile sez all!

  24. Delicious: Yes, this could be, since he appears to be Berlusconi’s ventriloquist dummy.

  25. Country Club Jihadi says at 3:50 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    AngryBlakGuy: Henry Waxman in blackface?

  26. tunamelt says at 3:51 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    I will actually enter this contest. If I don’t win, I have nothing to live for. Fact.

  27. Yes You Can Own A Piece of History says at 3:53 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    OMG! They are totally going to crack up over this at the closing dinner slide show. I wonder who will win the conference door prize?

  28. bitchincamaro says at 3:54 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Me no speak Blingee. Me speak Crayola on my screen.

  29. tunamelt:

    Be positive, you’ll always have Socialism and falling Soviet space debris.

  30. Reefpilot says at 3:56 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Ah, the word “semi-formal…” our chapter was so goddamn broke most of the time our semi-formals involved going to the local seafood fry pit and having the first ten dollars of our meals covered. Dates too…. if you had a date.

  31. bitchincamaro says at 4:00 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    tunamelt: I gotta extra eye-pod, Tuna.

  32. Oh, for heaven’s sake. The keg was for after the photo shoot.

  33. Tommy Says Soooo, Jugdish! says at 4:02 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Apparently a couple of guys are happy they found their tickee for their washee.

  34. tunamelt says at 4:03 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    bitchincamaro: I’ll take it. (I’m assuming that’s a metaphor. If it’s an actual iPod, I’m less enthused.)

  35. sleepy says at 4:03 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    randomsausage: i’m not say’n, i’m just say’n, if it’s wife swapping we’re talkin’, berlusconi’s got dibs on mrs mededved http://img.rian.ru/images/9168/03/91680389.jpg

  36. MargeSimpsonsBlackFriend says at 4:03 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    This is the greatest and most important contest ever. Here is my unworthy contribution:

  37. tunamelt says at 4:06 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Reefpilot: The only boyfriend I had in college belonged to a Christian frat that didn’t allow dancing or drinking. Most boring frat invite ever.

  38. BigDupa says at 4:06 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    What’s Ward Connelly doing in that photo? Has affirmative action become a global problem?

  39. The Cold Sea says at 4:07 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    I just sent a cold blingee to tips. Yeah.

  40. frailamerica says at 4:08 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    I bet it’s just that Berlusconi doppelganger from that video:

  41. norbizness says at 4:09 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    The freaks come out at night
    The freaks come out at night (HUT HUT HUT HUT)

  42. shortsshortsshorts says at 4:10 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    I just put 20 minutes of my life into a Blingee. GO ECONOMY GO!

  43. Schadenfried says at 4:11 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Dammit! Fuckety McFuck! I’m at work right now and I can’t compete in the contest!!!

  44. Magnus Maximus says at 4:11 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Looks like someone is flashing Gordon Brown off-camera!

  45. freakishlystrong says at 4:12 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    MargeSimpsonsBlackFriend: That is extremely dope…

  46. tunamelt says at 4:12 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    The Cold Sea: Me too!

    This is the first time I figured out how the blingee website worked.

  47. Nerdalicious says at 4:13 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    sleepy:
    Holy Crap! Russia’s really “opened up” haven’t they?

  48. CorkPopper says at 4:14 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    MargeSimpsonsBlackFriend: Oooh, good one.

  49. Nerdalicious says at 4:16 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    MargeSimpsonsBlackFriend:
    Fan f*****g tastic!

  50. digibal235 says at 4:16 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    It’s a friggin Mentos commercial.

  51. tunamelt says at 4:17 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    shortsshortsshorts: You do not have a life.

    Seriously though, can the second prize just be like, some hobo beans and grain alcohol. Because I wouldn’t mind winning that.

  52. The Unfairman says at 4:20 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    AngryBlakGuy: He looks like a cross between Mikey Mike Steeleio and Henry Waxman.

  53. The Unfairman says at 4:22 pm, April 2nd, 2009
  54. chascates says at 4:22 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    If they don’t go on tour they’d better release a DVD!
    G20 ON TOUR, rock on!

  55. JohnnyMeatworth says at 4:22 pm, April 2nd, 2009
  56. shortsshortsshorts says at 4:22 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    tunamelt: You are right. Blog, Wonkette and now Blingee. I should hire a Messican, illegally, and then join Barry’s cabinet.

  57. strikethrough says at 4:24 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    This is my very first blingee, and my first comment since you left gawker… obviously I had a reason to procrastinate.

    I’m just sorry that the crunky Muammar al-Gaddafi isn’t there too.

    digibal235: Fresh and full of life!

  59. ColHeightsChic says at 4:26 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Angryblackguy: The nerd in me feels the need to let you know that’s Ethiopia’s Prime Minister, Meles.

    He’s trying to look amused, but I suspect he’s a tad bit peeved that he’s been a black world leader for so many years and nobody ever wanted to take a frat-boy pic with him. Ethiopia may just have to invade Kenya now and kidnap Barry’s 14 illegitimate siblings.

  60. blinky_twinkie says at 4:26 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Just sent mine in! W00t!

  61. shortsshortsshorts: You must also cheat on your taxes.

  62. tunamelt says at 4:38 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    shortsshortsshorts: Are you squatting somewhere illegally? That would help, too.

  63. Red Zeppelin says at 4:40 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Country Club Jihadi: FTW! I couldn’t quite figure out who he reminded me of, but you are exactly right.

  64. Hart88 says at 4:41 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Ladies and gentlemen, I’ll be brief. The issue here is not whether we broke a few rules, or took a few liberties with our female party guests - we did.

  65. eoberhauser says at 4:42 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    also.

  66. assistant/atlas says at 4:42 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Just in case I am not the winner, I must share with you:

  67. revhatchell says at 4:43 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    can you hear that? ‘louie louie’ in the background!! we’re all going to be rich again!!! weeeeeeeee!

  68. Lazy Media says at 4:45 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    This seems to be the Blingee contest that gets us non-blingers off the bench. My first ever, and I SWEAR I hadn’t seen MargeSimpsonsBlackFriend’s first:

    http://blingee.com/blingee/view/87511064-Blingee

  69. tunamelt says at 4:46 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Hart88: Thank you sir, may I have another.

  70. MargeSimpsonsBlackFriend says at 4:48 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Lazy Media: I can haz copyrite?

    Just kidding!! :-)

  71. OffTheRecord says at 4:48 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Damn elitist job. I want to make a blingee. Why does my work computer have to be lame?

  72. Lazy Media says at 4:49 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Whoever wins has to tell us what an “iPod” is.

  73. NoWireHangers says at 4:49 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    5PM? EASTERN!? I was at lunch! there’s no TIME! NO TIMMMMMMMMMMMME!

  74. facehead says at 4:54 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    In before the buzzer?

    Advance apologies to anyone who thought of it first, didn’t have time to scan the competition.

  76. mayhemily says at 4:56 pm, April 2nd, 2009

  78. Dramatist says at 4:58 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Does anyone else wonder if Berlusconi, Medvedev, and Obama knew each other when they were kids and traveled along some railroad tracks one summer with River Phoenix to see a dead body?

  79. twowheeljunkie says at 4:58 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Since nowirehangers hasn’t posted yet. I assume she is busy creating the
    winning blingee right now.

  80. Dramatist says at 4:59 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Also, that’s quite a limp wrist, Dmitry.

  81. tunamelt says at 4:59 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    facehead: Okay, that’s fucking hilarious.

  82. Nerdalicious says at 5:04 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    These blingees are all so great I can’t imagine picking one. Hilarious.

  83. Obamaton says at 5:05 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    I can’t believe someone with better photoshop skills than I hasn’t put the “shocker” on Berlusconni’s right hand yet.

  84. Red Zeppelin says at 5:07 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Bros before Hos!

  85. picadillythirds says at 5:07 pm, April 2nd, 2009
  86. queeraselvis v 2.0 says at 5:07 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Dramatist: Yes. And Dmitry grew up to play Wesley Crusher. Which explains quite a bit, actually.

  87. Jean Hotman, Marquis de Villers-St-Paul says at 5:09 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Well, here’s my contribution to the noble cause.

  88. I just spent way too much time on this:

  94. Atheist Nun says at 5:20 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Dammit!! blingee fucked up my text, no time to fix it… Fuckers! Mah blingee masterpiece -ruined!

  95. Atheist Nun: Okay, that is hilarious.

    Atheist Nun: That’s quality!

  98. Atheist Nun says at 5:57 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    MarSF: NoWireHangers: cheers!

  99. lennixlewis says at 5:58 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    This is mine! Now that I’ve looked at others, it’s a little sparse. But I only had twenty minutes because of my West Coast (is the best coast) status.

    http://blingee.com/blingee/view/87512015-G20-YA-LL

  100. Newell, you are TEH SUXOR! I leave for one fucking hour to go and renew my medical marri gee juana license and you up and pull the MOST EXCELLENT BLINGEE COMPETITION EVAR shit on me and I can’t play for a chance to win your damn socialist iPod which I could have sold for a can of Hobo Beans. NO FAIR.

    Doesn’t matter anyways causeAtheist Nun: is clearly the winnar. Even with the presence of Jar Jar Binks it is the winnar.

  101. smartypants says at 6:32 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Y’all stop playin. Their over there on RedState planning a march of some kind. Something about
    guns’n'teabags…

    ‘Course that would mean missing the Tax Day Sale at Walmart. And one would actually have to..like..WALK somewhere. And buy tea bags instead of Nestea.

    But still…

  102. MargeSimpsonsBlackFriend: Damn, just now saw your MOST OFF DA HOOK BLINGEE and I’d have to say it is the winnar. Also.

  103. Nerdalicious says at 6:47 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Oh well, here’s mine anyhoo. I’m a blingee virgin.

    I wanted to put Queen’s Bitch on Brown’s suit but I didn’t know how to use the text.

  106. problemwithcaring says at 6:55 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Atheist Nun: Still awesome.

  107. DustBowlBlues says at 7:49 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    I just realized why the G20 is so much fun. There weren’t any Republicans there. John Boner and Mitch (no lips )McConnell make Hu look like Mr. Chuckles and the scary terrorist a character from PeeWee’s Playhouse. (I mean, the scary terrorist in with the thing draped over his head).

  108. smartypants says at 8:25 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    DustBowlBlues: Boner is HOT, though. He is SO Western Ken Doll. Who’s hotter than that? Uh-oh…damn my fascist neighbor and his Military Special vodka.
