Bitches, the KMBC Channel 9 Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid giveaway contest grand prize Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid is mine. Anybody wanna step up, I’ll mumble vague threats under my breath while avoiding eye contact. Unfortunately, the KMBC Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid giveaway contest entry form demands that you enter the KMBC Word of the Day. This would entail actually watching a KMBC news broadcast, instead of all the reading books I do when I’m not busy shopping for books on Internet book stores or discussing books with Pitch book critic Alan Scherstuhl, whose anonymity would be totally compromised if I Photoshopped a picture of him smoking a pipe and posted it on the Pitch blog.
By erecting this unacceptable barrier to entry to its stupid contest, KMBC just pissed me off. I guess they forgot they’re dealing with a man who’s been trained to ignore pain, ignore weather, to live off the land, to eat things that would make a billy-goat puke. Also, I use Google quite a bit while nibbling on Vanilla Wafers, and while a search on the terms “KMBC” and “Word of the Day” was not fruitful in uncovering their stupid mystery word, I did uncover this priceless treasure. It’s the Urban Dictionary’s definition for slang acronym KMBC, the newest queen of the Chris Packham Sexy Slang-cabulary Beauty Pageant. Congratulations, Miss KMBC, on your upcoming massive overexposure, because if the day comes when I ever, ever stop telling people to “KMBC,” you’ll know it’s time to unplug my ICU brain monitor due to my diagnosed permanent vegetablification.
