The theme of this contest is marriage, long term relationships, or other domestic partnerships (for you folks of the homosexual persuasion). If you do a strip about business relationships, brides of Christ, or other non-romantic partnerships, you will be disqualified. Within that limitation, do whatever you like- Positive aspects, negative aspects, divorce, engagements - I don't care. Go wild.

And you must mention the proper name of a vehicle somewhere in the strip. Make it funny- naming a character "Mr. BMW" just to fulfill the requirement will get you negative points. Keep in mind I live in America and am female, so if you choose the name of some 1940's French sub-compact to fit the rule and I don't recognize it, you'll be fucked. If it looks like a car name and I can google it to confirm it, you'll be fine.

Series are okay, as long as they are no longer than three strips. if you can't do it in 9 panels, forget it.

Due to some "having a life" issues, I can't end this contest Thursday night as would be typical. so you have until Friday 6/28 6pm Pacific time to get yer strips in. winners may not be announced immediately if my weekend takes the wacky turn I suspect it might.

Nasty and Kajun, I'm not seeing the car names in your entries. Next time, point them out with the kaufman "JEEP whiz, this is obvious" method or reply here so I don't have to disqualify otherwise good strips.

This goes for the rest of you as well. If I can't see it, it ain't gonna count.

Surely you've heard of the Toyota Boorite...?

It accomodates two (with a bit of a squeeze).

Bastard, I mentioned "Jeep" in the first one, but forgot the rule in the Boorite story, dammit dammit dammit.

Actually, I've been trying to think of a new contest all day, but I was at work and my brain was a little fucked.

I'm off out to a 21st tonight and I'm completely stumped as to what to do for the next contest. But I WILL try and think of something for tomorrow morning, or later on, when I'm drunk.

however

if you want to e-mail me your suggestions, send them to kajunscontest@fieldhead.demon.co.uk
