to any newbies or lurkers reading this the backshegoes contest is held every year. a special panel chosen from the backshegoes hall of fame inductees award points to posters throughout the year. points can be awarded for humor, insightfulness, informative posts, and many other criteria. bucky is kind of like the patriots of the backshegoes contest world.

Any of you old heads remember “the cool contest” on pp in the not the random thoughts thread? Didn’t ace (not rothenstein) win because she said she wore tennis skirts?

I don't. But that's pretty cool.

Shame we just have the one female poster these days.

van hagar wasn't awful or even bad. the original van halen was better obviously but david lee roth was an idiot and wanted to make a cover album instead of 1984 so its obvious why eddie wanted him out. i haven't extensively listened tot he hagar albums but all the hits are pretty much aces. "dreams" is a masterpiece

the matrix trilogy is great and the sequels are just as good as the first one for the most part. matrix reloaded is severely underrated. and the dragon ball z fight at the very end of the last one is fucking awesome. if you didn't understand...i suggest improving your intelligence quotient

Lil B, given name Brandon Mccarthy is the most underrated and unfairly maligned artist of all time

pink was and still is kinda hot.

Halloween is the dumbest holiday and season

valentines day, easter, 4th of july...many worse ones.

Wrongest opinion ever.

i can understand not liking halloween that much...but rating it the worst?? its the most unique holiday we have.

If you don't like halloween, you clearly have not discovered octoberfest and pumpkin ale style beers

Christmas is the worst. Or valentines day.

You guys won't be hatin' and jokin' when I cash in with my christian alternative. Just trying to settle on a name - Godoween? Christoween? Hallowgod? Right now I'm leaning Hallowchrist.

Oh and there's only one thing that should have pumpkin flavor and it's pumpkin pie. In fact, I'd vote for a republican presidential candidate if they promised to ban pumpkin spice everything.

Lies. I love candied yams.

Christmas is far and away the worst, although Christmas ales are freaking delious

my vote for worst (assuming columbus day is commemorated as "indigenous peoples" day) is boxing day. way too violent.
