[...] More than a year ago I was nominated for the the same awards, similar to the Weblog Awards that are announced every year at the SXSW conference except with categories like “Best porn star,” “Sexiest Queer candy” and sponsored by a bunch of gay porn all-male adult entertainment websites. I didn’t win the “Best Gay Asian” category, and after a year of therapy and mild sedatives to dull away the thought of being the “WORST GAY ASIAN EVER,” I’ve moved on with my life. [...]

And you lost to one of the weirdest blogs I’ve ever seen, a super-skinny guy who thinks he’s fat and walks around streets in Manila looking super queer. 加油!

Well I see the results are in for the gay bloggies, and littleyellowdifferent was sadly overlooked… but clicking through the list of winners I don’t think you need to be too upset. All the winners are, well, a tad boring. You should have easily won the “Humour” and “Writing” categories but you weren’t even nominated in them! What gives??

So, Ernie, my question to you: who do you think should have won in some of those categories? If the gay bloggies can’t tell us whose blogs are worth reading besides this one, maybe you can! Please, bestow upon us your links of wisdom.

I did vote for you, Ernie, and your being nominated is how I found your website in the first place. I have been an avid reader ever since.

Interesting how nominations have other results., some of which are not immediately apparent. Kinda philosophical for so early on Black Friday.

The certificate was hilarious. Even though it took me a second or two to figure out why there was a rooster at the bottom of the list.

I love the erect pen best.

Also the plaid background on this site? That alone should qualify you, heh.

After all that, I just had to go and vote for you. It’s a shame it doesn’t seem like they’ll actually have an awards ceremony. Imagine what fun and craziness *that* would be.

P.S. You’re not only funny, but uber-fabulous overall too.

imphaldiary: You’re right – two of my banner photos are from Mysore, when I was in Bangalore for a week for work.

Although looking at Wikipedia, it looks like I should now call the places I visited Mysuru and Bengalūru…
