Ha!

Oh yay, the results for the 2006 Bulwer-Lytton Fiction Contest are out. (If you're unfamiliar with the contest, click that link and scroll down for the history.) I actually like the runner-up entry better than the grand prize winner, but my absolute favorite category is the vile pun category. I am a sucker for puns. This one cracked me up:

Hee!
