CONTEST!!
Ξ April 15th, 2008 | → | ∇ alcohol, nuttin in particular |
While in Kentucky there were many, and I do mean many, bizarre drunken conversations. During one late night booze influenced conversation I was trying to explain to my NOT SO little cousin and our awesome aunt why blogging has been so therapeutic for me. I tried to explain how it truly is possible to call you fantastic folks my friends. Took a few conversations and having NOT SO little cousin Twinkle Twat take nekkid photos of me while awesome aunt Tinkle Twat directed, but I think they are seeing how much you all mean to me.
So when Twinkle Twat decided that her dragon tattoo needed a name, it was a rather easy to convince her that we should take this to the internet. Monday when she had time she took a few photos that do not do this magnificent work of art justice, but they should do for the purpose of this contest.
The winner gets nothing really. Well, they will get the satisfaction of knowing that a gorgeous almost 27 year old is walking around referring to her dragon by the name you suggested. Winner is picked solely by Twinkle Twat. Because she sure as fuck is not the type of woman who lets me tell her what to do, not even if this is my site.
So, without further ado, here are the photos of her gorgeous dragon:
Photos would have been better if done on a real digital camera, but this is what the cellica phone gave us to work with. You can still sorta make out how awesome he is. Even though she gave birth two years ago he held his shape incredibly well. I love how his tail snakes down her leg almost as much as I love him gripping on to her front and back. Most of all I love his face. He looks like a kind and wise dragon, doesn’t he? Ok, I will shut it and let you get to naming. (My submission is George.)
EDIT TO ADD: Re seems to have settled on Grimford. Kiyo is still my favorite, but I was unable to get good ole Twinkle Twat to budge. So, Grimford it is!
(Jerry, in Reno you can use your tongue to help get the chocolate pudding from my heaving breasts after the wrestling match…congrats on winning the contest!)

He looks like a “Herkimer” to me.
on April 15th, 2008 at 5:47 am
jester - i have a betta fish on my desk at work who is named herkimer. unfortunately i don’t think she will go for herk. damn good suggestion, though.
on April 15th, 2008 at 5:53 am
Are you freaking kidding me? How do you have a beta fish named Herkimer!? I pull a name out of the air and you have a fish named that!?
on April 15th, 2008 at 5:58 am
jester - nope, not kidding. my fish at work is a gorgeous fantail…red and blue and purple. and named herkimer! what else you wanna pull outta the air???!?!?!!
on April 15th, 2008 at 6:56 am
herkimer is ~not~ a good name!
it’s the name of one of the scuzziest towns in ny i’ve ever had the misfortune to live in.
blech!
(ok, so i’m biased in a negative way. i’m gonna go meditate and try to rid myself of my prejudices)
who am i kidding, i gotta get ready for work. i’ll meditate there/later.
on April 15th, 2008 at 7:04 am
And the nakey pics begin!!!
I’m still pondering on the name– she is so beautiful and the tattoo is very lovely and hot.
I can’t wait until HNT*giggling*
on April 15th, 2008 at 7:05 am
Oh and I just had to come back because I forgot to say ‘twinkle twat”—BUWHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA
on April 15th, 2008 at 8:53 am
I have a beta fish at work, too! A blue one, with red on his fantail. His name is Michael K. Brown.
Still thinking about the dragon. Instinct said “Puff” but Twinkle Twat doesn’t seem like a “Puff” kind of gal. I’ll be back.
on April 15th, 2008 at 9:43 am
heath - herk is a great name for my fish. just not a good name for a place for you to reside. now get your ass back here and suggest a name!
turn - technically it is a nht, but the “t” just so happens to stand for tuesday. this was gonna be my nht post, but i couldn’t wait. (you made me snort coffee with your second comment. thanks for that.) ANYhow, you have seen the gorgeous cousin and her dragon in real life and yet you don’t submit an entry to the name him contest? wtf woman??!?!?!!
gwen - you are so right, twinkle twat is certainly not a puff kinda girl. although this guy is magical! i’m glad you will be back with another submission. xoxo
(p.s. why michael k. brown? what am i missing?)
on April 15th, 2008 at 9:50 am
The dragon just screams out “Lenny” to me…
on April 15th, 2008 at 10:01 am
I’m sorry, all I can think is “holy FUCK that had to hurt like a bitch to get done.”
But that seems like a long name.
Pervius. That’s my name.
on April 15th, 2008 at 10:02 am
I think she should call him “puff” as in Puff, the Magic Dragon.
Cause we all need magic dragons on our bods.
on April 15th, 2008 at 10:34 am
Name it “Fluffy”
on April 15th, 2008 at 10:39 am
shiny - i kinda like lenny. although was lenny the guy in of mice & men who liked to pet soft things?
britt - it took two sessions of three hours each. most of the pain was when they worked above her ribs. hanging out with her during the work is almost what kept me from getting my tiny one. i mean, twinkle twat is tough and watching her face get distorted from pain was no fun. she’s quite the trooper, though.
i’m liking pervious.
hill - twinkle twat wouldn’t go for something so mainstream as puff. although i still love that name.
abs - you just reminded me of the commercial where the guy has to say his passwords over and over. BIG BOY! hehe
on April 15th, 2008 at 11:01 am
And you are going back next year?
You guys scare me. I’m not coming out of the house.
on April 15th, 2008 at 11:01 am
When my last fish was on his “last leg” a co-worked named Mike flushed him for me because I just couldn’t do it. I named the new fish after him as an homage. I thought it was funny to give him the guy’s full, official name.
on April 15th, 2008 at 11:21 am
Bloodfire Diamondheat.Was the first thing that popped up when I went here: http://www.polenth.com/fun/dragon.cgi
on April 15th, 2008 at 11:46 am
fab - when did you turn into a pussy? man up and party with us. you can’t drink as much as us and that is cool, but you WILL party.
and what is up with you not subnitting a name to the contest? fucker.
gwen - thanks for the explaination!
that guy - how the fuck did you find that website??!?!?!! way cool. now i have to go back to work and not spend the afternoon looking at dragon names!
on April 15th, 2008 at 11:50 am
yes because I have seen your beautiful strong cousin and her twinkle twat I AM THINKING *stupid bitches*;-)
on April 15th, 2008 at 11:51 am
Well Fabby they’ll be IN the house so that streategy won’t work *giggling*
on April 15th, 2008 at 11:51 am
strategy even
sheesh
on April 15th, 2008 at 11:59 am
Ok. So, pervious is getting there in the scheme of dragon names, but I don’t think I want him called Perv for short, and you know that will happen.
on April 15th, 2008 at 12:04 pm
re - hiya, twinkle twat. hehe! welcome to my little corner of the blogosphere!
i agree, pervius is damn close to perfect, but barely misses the mark. don’t forget deb’s submission to the contest: ityiwart (short for “i told you i wanted a real tattoo”). at least when you shortened ityiwart you get ity.
on April 15th, 2008 at 12:05 pm
How did I find that website? There’s this great new site, I think it’s called “Google”, you enter words into this “search query” and it spits out websites that match your “query”. 1998 is shaping out to be a great year for internet searching!
on April 15th, 2008 at 12:06 pm
Oh please! I can outdrink you anytime. We’ve HAD this conversation!
The only name possible is Mordac.
on April 15th, 2008 at 12:15 pm
that guy - fucker!
and here i thought it was years of plying d&d that had that site programmed into your head or something.
fab - don’t sing it bitch, bring it. (i notice you are not on the list of tequilacon participants. interesting. must be because you are scared to drink with me.)
on April 15th, 2008 at 12:20 pm
I have other committments that weekend, but we WILL get together and I will put. you. down.
Punk.
on April 15th, 2008 at 12:23 pm
Radar or Scooter
on April 15th, 2008 at 12:25 pm
fab - i am not afraid of you. bring on the booze. you can’t hang, i’m sure of it. (ya know, it is taking everything i have not to call you a punk ass bitch right now. wonder why?)
mel - aren’t those your kids??!?!?!?!! you calling them dragons?
on April 15th, 2008 at 12:28 pm
LMAO. No, they are not my kids.
I do have a boy named RadEr and he gets called RadAr a lot. People always ask me if I was a big fan of M*A*S*H. WTF? But I do like the name Radar, and I think that would be great for a dragon.
Scooter is definitely not my other kid’s name. C’mon, you know it would be teh awesome having a dragon named Scooter. LOL
on April 15th, 2008 at 12:41 pm
We’ll see, hot shot. Just don’t ask me to hold your hair while your projectile vomiting into the toilet.
on April 15th, 2008 at 12:41 pm
“you’re”
Dammit.
on April 15th, 2008 at 12:49 pm
mel - lol
fab - i rarely ralph. and i can hold my own fucking hair when i need to. besides, if i am hurling, you had damn well be certain that you will also be bringing back up the booze. (giggling that i scared you into a grammar error!)
on April 15th, 2008 at 12:54 pm
Just so you know, after you have passed out and are lying in a pool of your own filth, I am going to use a Sharpie to give you an elaborate mustache.
I’m telling you NOW so you don’t go all BATSHIT on me when it happens!
on April 15th, 2008 at 12:57 pm
Mr. Fabulous,
You should color the inside of her ears, too. That’s the joke the keeps on giving…they never notice for two or three days…not that I’ve EVER done that. Nope. Not me.
on April 15th, 2008 at 1:00 pm
Mel–You are a freakin’ GENIUS! I’ll use a RED Sharpie for that!
on April 15th, 2008 at 1:03 pm
Just please take pictures. That’s all I ask.
Hello…love you. Mean it.
on April 15th, 2008 at 1:05 pm
fab - i see how you are. just know that two can play at that game. have fun waiting for your eyebrows to grow back.
mel - you are on the wrong side of this battle. trust me.
on April 15th, 2008 at 1:06 pm
and dammit! i had a good dragon name that i now forgot because you fuckers got me off topic!
on April 15th, 2008 at 1:07 pm
Nah. I’m safe and sound sitting at my desk in Arkansas waiting for the hot Fed Ex guy to deliver my new shoes. I’m in the best spot ever for this battle…the sidelines. LOL
on April 15th, 2008 at 1:11 pm
Perhaps you were thinking SHARPIE as a name?
on April 15th, 2008 at 1:16 pm
LOL @ Mel!
Sigh…First of all, I would never pass out and give you that chance. Secondly, if by some wild child I did pass out, you have NEVER in your LIFE posessed the guts to do something like that.
on April 15th, 2008 at 1:21 pm
Watching lightweights argue about drinking is funny.
Also, I have never played D&D, despite my geeky exterior.
on April 15th, 2008 at 1:21 pm
mel - describe new shoes and send photo of hot fedex dude. oh, and fuck you.
fab - you obviously don’t know me well, my dear. but i like that you underestimate me.
on April 15th, 2008 at 1:21 pm
I’m going to set up the video camera
And I’m thinking twinkle twat need a strong but soft name for the dragon–he does have a sweet puppy face
on April 15th, 2008 at 1:22 pm
that guy - just because you can drink more beer than we can doesn’t mean that you would hang in a REAL ALCOHOL consumption night.
on April 15th, 2008 at 1:32 pm
turn - you must join in the drunken festivities. everything can be video taped, but i have seen you and your straight booze on the rocks self put down a few so i think you need to be in on the insanity.
you are so right about the dragon needing a name that is appropriate for his incredible face. i went to that dragon website and found names like stalker storm and obsidian strongtalon.
maybe we should just call him mcgyver and move on?
on April 15th, 2008 at 1:52 pm
His name is Grimford.
on April 15th, 2008 at 1:58 pm
You’ve only seen me when I have to be careful when I’m driving. I can take BOTH of you. So we’ll have to do this at the house !!
I kinda like Grimford–not sure twinkle twat will;-)
on April 15th, 2008 at 2:08 pm
Whoa! Stop!
Turnbaby, you think you can beat both of us?
Oh, it is so ON!
on April 15th, 2008 at 2:12 pm
What licka of choice are we talking about here? I can and will drink long past the point of “would you just shut the fuck up and pass out stage”, although I cannot guarantee the, uh, humidity of your potted plants and/or dog(s). Long story.
on April 15th, 2008 at 2:14 pm
othur - loven grimford. great work!
turn - as i said to fabby, bring it. it is so on! what will the loser(s) have to do?
fab - dammit, now i am agreeing with you. turn had better put her mouth where her fingers are typing. or something like that. you know what i am trying to say. rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
on April 15th, 2008 at 2:15 pm
It’s not “think” I said I CAN!
And both Hello and I are whiskey drinkin’ gals-Bourbon tyvm
Fabby’s a vodka or girlie drink kinda drinker*giggling*
on April 15th, 2008 at 2:15 pm
that guy - there will be NO peeing in the plants. go outside with the dogs. we’ve all done that.
on April 15th, 2008 at 2:19 pm
turn - as much as i love my maker’s mark, i’m a ketel one girl most days. friday i drank bourbon, but saturday i switched to vodka. as did you! for the sake of the who passes out and gets fucked with contest, i say we use vodka as the hootch de jour. that guy…you in?
on April 15th, 2008 at 2:24 pm
I can drink the vodka with soda, can’t I? I AM kinda girlie.
Or I’ll be glad to match you Long Island Iced Tea to Long Island Ice Tea.
on April 15th, 2008 at 2:25 pm
Vodka it is–the water of life dontcha know;-0
on April 15th, 2008 at 2:28 pm
Grimford is pretty damn good! Remember the cartoon Mother Goose and Grim? Stupid little yellow dog? I loved him!
on April 15th, 2008 at 2:34 pm
fab - mixers are permitted, so long as you aren’t drinking pure soda and no vodka.
turn - AMEN!
twinkle twat - wow, you are still reading this mess?!??! yay!
i agree with you, othurme is now in the lead. anyone able to beat grimford?
on April 15th, 2008 at 2:36 pm
Color me Ketal One, I will whip all your asses (probably literally at some point)!
on April 15th, 2008 at 7:23 pm
can’t really tell from the picture if the dragon is chinese or japanese in style. do you know? *from what i can see it looks to be more japanese than anything else but i’d like to be sure before i give you my suggestions.
on April 15th, 2008 at 8:06 pm
that guy - if you can’t spell it, are you worthy to consume it? hi yo! seriously, join us in the event. i can shave your eyebrows as easily as i can make fab’s disappear. (p.s. a little spanking is always appreciated, but you won’t be whuppin my ass. xoxo)
heather - good question. i have no clue. not sure if twinkle twat even knows. he was drawn free hand by the artist and i am not sure if the style was discussed.
on April 15th, 2008 at 8:13 pm
ok, in that case he can be blaingo, the shy dragon.
mandarin = blaingo
dragon = long
bao = bless and protect
niang = mother/young lady
(i took one of each letter and combined them)
japanese = shy dragon
dragon = doragon
protector = hogosha
mother = hahaoya
(same deal here)
on April 15th, 2008 at 9:10 pm
heather - thanks for all of the thought you put into this! xoxo
on April 15th, 2008 at 9:33 pm
As a fan of the JR Ward Black Dagger Brotherhood books, my submission would be “Rhage”. In the series, one of the brothers, whose name is Rhage, has a tattoo on his back of a “beast”. The “beast” comes to life when Rhage loses control of his temper and emotions. Rhage actually turns into the creature and wreaks havoc upon his enemies. Rhage’s mate Mary tames both him and the beast by the end of the book.
on April 16th, 2008 at 12:09 am
Everyone can stop submitting names because I’ve got it: Kiyo (or Kiyohime).
Kiyo was a beautiful Japanese waitress in a tea house who was spurned by her lover, a priest who was not allowed in tea houses. She laboriously studied magic until she could turn herself into a dragon and eventually exacted revenge on the priest. I think it’s the perfect name for a dragon that adorns a beautiful, smart and sassy gal like Twinkle Twat. And the moral of the story is to not be ruled by your emotions. Snap.
See: http://www.theserenedragon.net/Tales/japan-kiyo.html
And also: http://www.blackdrago.com/famous_japanese.htm#kiyo
And finally: http://www.pantheon.org/articles/k/kiyo.html
on April 16th, 2008 at 6:43 am
win - ohhhhhhhhhhhh, that is a good one. great story behind the name.
gwen - wow, when you say you will be back with a great name, you come back with a great name! well done!!
especially since twinkle twat is a bartender and has done her share of waitressing. and because kiyo is close enough to hi yo that i can say it loudly. me thinks that no matter what name re settles on, i will forever refer to that amazing dragon as kiyo. thanks so much for doing the research! love ya much.
on April 16th, 2008 at 7:02 am
Ooooo I vote for Kiyo!!!
Awesome story and as Hello says you can say it LOUD!!
on April 16th, 2008 at 10:07 am
Elton
on April 16th, 2008 at 10:34 am
turn - you are so very right. i can scream KI YO loudly and often. KI YO! what?!?!? WHAT?!??!
donnie - i’m surprised that you didn’t say donnie. elton is a fun name, though.
on April 16th, 2008 at 11:09 am
I like saying “What????” at work and giggling to myself, people look at me kinda funny, then keep on talking. I’m still happy with Grimford.
on April 16th, 2008 at 11:12 am
I don’t really think of him as Japanese, more medieval than anything.
on April 16th, 2008 at 11:25 am
twinkle twat - you can call him grimford all ya want (it is an amazing name and he is on your body after all), but i will forever scream “ki yo!” every time i see him. and you.
stooopid bitch. what???!??!!!
on April 16th, 2008 at 11:36 am
He’s always gonna be Scooter to me.
on April 16th, 2008 at 11:03 pm
The Dragons name should be Stiffler, I meen look where he’s headed.
on April 17th, 2008 at 12:36 am
mel - woman, you crack me up all the damn time.
truk - oh hell no! (xoxo)
on April 17th, 2008 at 11:07 am
OK…Donnie. Better yet, Adonis.
on April 17th, 2008 at 2:35 pm
TO ALL - Thanks for playing along.
Re seems to have settled on Grimford. Kiyo is still my favorite, but I was unable to get her to budge. So, Grimford it is!
(Jerry, in Reno you can use your tongue to help get the chocolate pudding from my heaving breasts after the pudding wrestling match…congrats on winning the contest!)
on April 17th, 2008 at 4:19 pm
There wasn’t really ever a question. I said…his name is Grimford.
on April 21st, 2008 at 12:11 am
[...] CONTEST!! [...]
