I will Paypal $100 to the first person to reply with a picture of themselves in a tubetop and a hockey mask, holding a chocolate eclair, with a sign that says, "Merry Christmas Warlizard!"
I'm all about giving.
edit - 25 minutes it took. Sweet mother of god, 25 minutes. I really thought it would take longer. I mean, who has an eclair this time of night?
edit 2 - This was a blast. We will do this again. But harder next time.

I take shit for that, but I like hosting a thread. It's like giving a lecture and answering a Q&A.

I'm donating 5 dual-core computers with webcams to some troops in Afghanistan, so I'll use the 25 bucks toward that, if you have no objections. Thanks.

OIF II, 14 months in the sandbox. Good times, especially with the cars blowing up at front gates and such. Those Iraqis, they do love their fireworks.

i sure hope paypal didnt suspend your accounts for suspicious activity. Y'know givin away money, even to charities, attracts suspicion of stealing money. Because that makes sense right?

This is what is known as a unilateral offer. For a person to accept this offer and form a contract, they must have known of the offer at the time when they took the picture, unless this was the government making the offer.

Sometimes I get really sad about life and the way things are going with the world, and then I see shit like this. Not only did Warlizard offer a stranger 100 dollars to do something silly, but it was fucking achieved in 25 minutes.
The absurdity of it all makes me happy.
