UTB's Election Superlatives 2K13: VOTE!

Captureutb

As the days have grown (somewhat) shorter and the nights (somewhat) colder, you freshmen may have been asking yourselves: why hasn't UTB synthesized the best worst myriad election videos and posters into some kind of roundup? If they don't make fun of everyone, how will I know who to vote for? IS IT NOT ALWAYS THUS???

Fear not, fair freshie readers. The day is here. The end draws near. Go vote (before 5pm) and click through for the roundup.

The Videos:

There were some strong video contenders this year. There were also significant amounts of iMovie slideshows that leaned on the Ken Burns effect.

Best Use of Suffixes: "Be Wiser, Vote Izer" by Izer Martinez

Man, everything rhymes with your name. Organizer, energizer, appetizer. You're a lucky dude. And you just gave epileptics the seizure of their lives.

Worst Waste of a Name Pun: "The Big Kahana" by Daniel Kahana

Listen, you could watch the video. You could watch Daniel Kahana put things in a bag and look overheated in Hill. But know this: he had the option of a Kahana Matata name pun. And he passed on it.

Guy We Most Want To Hang Out In Penn Park With: "Everybody Vote" by Sujay Dewan

"Baby, can you breath?" No, we can't 'breath.' Sujay, come to our party.

Least Trustworthy: Aneesh Kancharla

Australia schmaustralia; it's the Febreeze that's got our attention! If he's covering up odors now, who knows what he'll be covering up once in office!

Best All-Around: Edwin Sam

An original rap/slam poem with the beauty of a thousand bad name puns. Edwin's the next big thing, we're calling it now.

We knew she was trouble when she walked in.

This is some Ernest-type buullllshit, I'll tell you what.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Least In Need of a Caption: Hope MacKenzie.

Just--just look at it.

 

The Websites

Only one is worthy of our time and attention.

Most Worthy of Our Time and Attention: Alid Castano, site here

Meet Alid, everyone. He's a quadruplet, competes in "Men's Physique Competitions," and we can only assume his W.E.E.D acronym stands for WHY EWHY EWHY DWHY

That's a wrap, folks. Vote here before 5PM, and we'll see you in the spring.
