I thought about a million. I considered 100,000. But considering what I have seen people do for just 50,000 (Fear Factor), I thought I would need to lower the reward to something a little more disturbing.

Would you eat disgusting things that ChefGuy might like?

Would you stand in the bathroom while Lieu is taking care of business?

Would you slap PolyCarp and call him foul names?

Would you use the word “fat” in a post?

Would you pose naked, covered in chocolate sauce sitting atop of a freshly shorn goat?

Feel free to give your own suggestions.

anyody seen my prozac?

Heck, I’d do each of those for ten bucks. I’m poor.

Move this to IMHO? Aw, hell. I’d do that for nothing. Which is good, 'cuz that’s exactly what I’ll get. Except maybe some enmity. Which would be all right. I’m almost out of it.

Disgusting is as disgusting does…  
I’m an OB/GYN nurse, so it’s pretty hard to scare me or even come close to grossing me out.

Would you do a vag exam on a hysterical 16 year old while her gangsta boyfriend glowered over you?

Would you get on the floor with a 375 lb. mom when she goes into a squat and starts pushing?

Bring on the chocolate sauce, baby; I ain’t scared of no goat!

For $1000, I’d:

Kiss Bill Clinton on the cheek and pretend I liked it. No, wait, not Bill Clinton, that’s too ooky. George Stephanopolous, maybe.

Eat one bite of dead (cooked) animal carcass. (What you weirdo carnivores call “meat.”)

Appear on a stupid game show, like the syndicated “Weakest Link” in an ugly shirt.

Let my mother in law keep BabyTeaElle for an overnight stay.

I’d walk my dogs around the block in the nude. I wonder if $1000 would get me out of jail??

- Spend 3 minutes in a cage with a troop of facaes slinging monkeys.

And there’s _no way in hell_ I’m taking on **Cyn** ’s job unless I get paid US$100,000.

A $1000? Heck, I would \* kill \* for that much spending cash.
