ANNOUNCEMENT: LoT has a swanky new charity partner

Ghoulish Delight · 04-01-2010, 10:53 AM

5+ years ago, we came together as a community. I think it's safe to say that those 5 years has made all of our lives better for those of us who have enjoyed posting here. We at the LoT thought it was time to think beyond ourselves some, to use the power that this small bunch of swanky people have to make more than our own lives better.

And so we are pleased to announce our first ever charity partnership. We have been searching hard for a cause that we can support, that fits with our swank philosophy, and that we think you, as the most awesome community on the 'net, can get behind. So PLEASE, do what you can to help.

Will this partnership enable us to orgasm for 20 minutes, like pigs do? Otherwise, I want no part of it.

(Well, except the bacon)

I read that as "Poker International" and had visions of a charity poker tournament.

So... How long did it take you to put that page together?

From concept to going live, about 90 minutes. I mentioned to NA on IM that I wanted to do something, we did a little brain storming, NA came up with Porker International (other ideas floated: Swanking with Lindsay Lohan, a Swanking to a HeeHaw Revivoal Tour, Swank Space Camp, Swank trip where we rent out the entire Madonna Inn, Swank Camp 2020 Planning Thread, field trip to a pig farm to learn how to make bacon). Then NA took a nap while I put the site together between doing actual work. It was probably 20-30 minutes of actual effort on the site.

And it only took me 5 years to get the balls to do another joke.

Well, to me pigs, cows, and turkeys are so darn ugly that I have no problem eating them. (ok, pigglets can be kinda cute

). But don't ask me to eat a Bambie.....
