Performancing Awards 2007 Reader’s Choice Polling Has Begun

Performancing Awards 2007 Reader’s Choice PollPerformancing has posted their 2007 Blog Awards Finalists. Of most interest to Humor Blogging, is the category for Funniest Blog. I’m always interested to know what kind of taste in humor other people have. I’m fully aware of what my own sense of humor finds funny, but one of the things I am exploring here is what makes things funny, and why.

As a result, awards for being funny interest me. The finalists for Funniest Blog (use this link to vote this category) are:

I am a fan of Violent Acres and Dilbert Blog (Duh. How much am I stealing his 2 of 6 Rule of Humor idea?). I’m not so much a fan of Lolcats (I Can Has Cheezeburger). I’ve read Waiter Rant a few times and enjoyed it. The other two finalist blogs are ones that are unfamiliar to me. I’ll make it a point to check them out over the weekend.

Personally, I think the funniest blogs are The Mattress Police, The Ominous Comma, and 15 Minute Lunch, none of which are finalists, but all rank well in the Humor-Blogs.com directory, and rightly so.

I’m also pleased to see that The Astonishing Adventures of Lord Likely is a contender for Best Blog You Never Heard Of (Use this link to vote this category). Kudos to a fellow Humor-Blogs.com member.

I’m highly interested to know what you think of the finalists for Funniest Blog. Offer your review or overview. Who gets your vote? What do you like or dislike about these sites?

    Sir, many thanks for not only drawing my attention to my recent nomination in these awards, but further thanks for alerting your wonderful (and no doubt incredibly handsome) readers.

    In return, you shall find a not-so-little something awaiting you in my fine journals.

    See you there!

    I must agree with your assessment of Mattress Police. Everyone that reads it, knows, Diesel is in deperate need of help, and hope he never gets it.

    LOL at Skul’s comment. Thank you both for your kind words. That’s a pretty good list of blogs, and I’m just happy to be mentioned in the same post. I Can Has Cheezburger is pretty funny, but come on, it’s the same damn joke every time (Note how it’s bizarre + cute + familiar and usually 1 or 2 of the others).

    I stopped reading the Sneeze because running people who are funnier than I am demoralizes me. I’m so weak.

    Congrats to his Lordship as well!

    How dare Renal Failure not get nominated for an award I didn’t know existed!

    But I gotta give props to my fellow fabricator Lord Likely. Nicely done.

    Lord Likely I’m glad to help, and thanks for the Golden Cock Award.

    Skul Speak of the Devil and the devil shows up.

    Diesel Skul was saying nasty things about you. What’s say we kill him?

    RF Maybe next time you’ll pay attention and know about blog awards that you don’t know about. Or something.
