more of those little things that annoy me
i like entering competitions, now why oh why are most holiday comps for 2 peeps, i cant leave my son behind (well i could but it'd be mean) and when they actually are for a family, the child has to be under 12, my lad's 15, the horrible cheapskate comp running bastards.
people who win the lottery and say oooooh we wont let it change us, just last week a pair of miserable old bastards won a few million, so what did they buy...a caravan, a settee and a fucking handbag, for fucks sake why enter the lottery if ya not going to enjoy it. and there was another sad bastard who won, so he decided to return to his job at micky d's, soft useless twat.
on the same subject these cunts who have won and then moaned that they're not any happier, well then miserable twats gimme ya winnings and i'll show ya how to enjoy it.
looking at both moans above, some may get the impression i'm a sore loser :-)
now a question, a few weeks ago, the 15 year old star of hannah montanna was pictured in vanity fair, in what where allegedly very risque pictures, now i,m no law expert, but this girl is 15, therefore she is only a child, why is no one from vanity fair facing child abuse charges

I also enter hundreds of competitions, so many in fact that i have an automatic form filler to save all the typing

The one that gets me is comps for say a digital camera and part of the entering criteria is to send in a digital photo, which poses the question why would you enter a comp for a digital camera if you already had one which you must have to send in the picture required for entry............Grrrrrrrrr

Would you pay for a website to enter competitions for you?
Not sure if there is one already though.

fleshing out get rich ideas..

I guess the people entering loads of competitions (ie, trying to get something for nothing), won't want to pay for something like that.

I dont know, if there was a site which would enter every comp going on your behalf, its got to be tempting. Time is money and all that.
But then you have the issue of more people entering the competitions, which would probably reduce the chance of "you" winning.

I have other idea which I am currently doing some analysis for.
Nothing that new , but maybe worth doing.

Sounds like an idea, but would you trust the site not to take the goodies home for themselves?

I'm guessing it would work like those car insurance quote sites.. it takes your details, and enters it for you elsewhere.

It might work for a while, but when people enter for nothing, they shrug their shoulders when they don't win.. this, if they don't win a prize soon, might cancel quite quickly since they figure if they are paying they are owed a prize.
