I know there is not much I ask of you, but the time has come for US to win a prize. I’ve sweated blood and pissed my pants countless times during the past year in an effort to entertain you. I also bordered on full blown alcoholism last year for you guys and girls, in order to unearth writing from the deepest, darkest depths of my mind to entertain you.

So asking for a simple nomination is one thing I want from you. Nothing more. I thought that being the home of rad, we need to win this year. This year is OUR time! Yes, our time, you and me.

I’ve gone ahead and looked over SLXS and realised that we fit into the following categories:

South African Blog of the Year (Obviously!)

Most humorous South African Blog (No doubt!)

Best Post on a South African Blog — I’m going to have to, by unanimous decision after knocking out a million large units, choose “Smarties is a rich source of energy” Click HERE to read the best blog post in 2008 in South Africa, and probably the world.

Last year we were nominated for the blog awards, but we never won. Seriously guys and girls, let’s clean up and take this home. We’ve done good. Reading SLXS automatically makes you part of the coolest community in the world, now let’s reaffirm this with a winning badge and disgusting celebrations.

So click the badge below to nominate us, then follow the instructions in the rest of this post:

I noticed a sort of glitch in the nomination badge, it put’s “www.slxs.co.za” under my nomination for “Best post on a South African blog” Just add this link in, instead:

http://www.slxs.co.za/2008/08/14/smarties-is-a-rich-source-of-energy/

When you have clicked the nomination badge and pasted the above link into “Best post on a South African blog”, just scroll to the bottom of the screen, enter the security code and your e-mail address, and click Submit.

You will then receive a confirmation e-mail with a confirmation link. Click the link, and you’re all done!

And then we’ll win, sweet!
