Hey everyone. A while ago I did a contest in which everyone submitted a top ten list and I picked three of them and gave away copies of Pulp Modern III featured my story "White Light, White Heat". So I'm now doing a similar contest wherein the winner will get a free signed copy of Weird Noir, featuring my short story "Train Tracks". Since these books cost me more to get, I'm only giving away one.
Here is your prompt: Post a video of the weirdest thing you've ever seen. It can be shocking, gross, funny, whatever. It can be a movie clip, or a youtube video, or something you filmed yourself. In one week I'll pick the one that I think is the weirdest.
No censorship, but I'd avoid anything illegal or too graphic if it's real (aka, no snuff videos please).

This is a super cool idea. I'll try to figure this one out-- I look forward to what shows up in this thread.
I don't even know what to say about this. NSFW?
@Drea - I feel like I shouldn't say this publicly, but I am strangely aroused by your video...I feel weird now.
@Sean, I really feel I have a shot at mopping up here.
I'll go ahead and move this from the other thread...
Tubifex! If I have this correct, both of these are of the same creature, just under radically different conditions.
Oh, the thrills of Garage Surgery.
@Mandi Rei Serra, I'd say you've go the gross category alright! Wow!
Ye gods, some eye-opening stuff here to view @ 6:00am! Nice competition. Great book—but I'm biased.
brilliant I'm signed in... I was doing some research and stumbled upon this video. imagine getting stuck there one cold and stormy night.

Would Love To Win acopy
Great stuff so far, but I think there should be just a few more before I decide! So I'll wait till Sunday night to pick something. Keep the weird shit coming in people.
Hey guys, having some issues with internet/power at my house so I might be late picking a winner. That said, there's still time to enter! Competition is fierce but it would be cool to see a few more entries!

(My favorite part is 2:05 when she starts ripping up her tips.)
And I think this one is pretty much necessary for every "weird video" contest:
Keep them coming guys! I'll pick something later tonight.
I hope I'm still on time... weird, bizarre and funny - what a combo!

hope this link works... iced tea with Steve Sutton in case the link doesn't work
Well guys, I've reviewed the videos. There have been some weird ones, funny ones, gross ones. But I can only choose one for the giveaway because, well, that's all I can afford to give away.
The weirdest thing I've seen, in my opinion, is the Alien Worm Balls. Bugs, in general, really creep me out and the story featured in Weird Noir, "Train Tracks", is about a giant slug. So it would only seem appropriate to choose another bug video.
Congrats to Arlane! Please PM with details regarding your address, etc.
To everyone else- check out Weird Noir on amazon. It's availabe as a print and a kindle download if you think it's something you'd enjoy.

Wow! I thought several of those others had me there. Good showing all!
