As always it was a close race with 2 posts vying for the top spot. However with the final results in I can reveal that this week’s Post of the Week is:

The perfect bacon sandwich by WrongTerrance (Nominated by Josh )

“It turned out that this guy was impressing, or trying to impress his new missus with their first breakfast in bed. My, I thought, how noble. If I ever get them to the stage where they need breakfast, it’s usually a fair bet a simple bacon sandwich isn’t going to rescue the evening.”

1. Back in a Bit: Why I like cryptosporidium
(nominated by Eric)

“Is that it? No magical chemistry? No super-complicated witchcraft? No, just boil it, allow to cool, and it’s fine. Now if only there were such a thing as a simple, cheap device that would allow me to boil water… wait, there is! It’s called a kettle.”

2. frizzyLogic: Fibretaxis
(nominated by Pete)

“I am talking, of course, about the ability of the average cat to assess the quality of light reflected from its coat and, having done so, move to position itself precisely on a surface displaying exactly the opposite properties.”

3. The Other Side of Paris: Feeling Flat
(nominated by Fifi)

“I was buying a newspaper and a book for PP at the station today when a midget, rancid old bitch-troll with glasses pushed in front of me. I looked down on her and said,”What the feck do you think you’re doing?” Shrug, pout and distinct whiff of body odour was the only reply I got. I could have crushed her like a raisin but didn’t want to dirty my hands.”

4. Rise: Tantrum
(nominated by Mike)

“Lily continues to witter on about how he knows that he is behaving badly, and I should give him a punitive Time Out when we get home. This is not the time or place to be explaining to her that I have only just, in the previous few minutes, had to work out my philosophy on discipline in response to a tantrum.”

5. The Unbearable Banishment: Watching Your Breath
(nominated by Bob)

“Christianity shouts: “YOU NEED US. WITHOUT US, YOU’LL BURN IN HELL. Oh, and by the way, GIVE US SOME MONEY!” Buddhism gently whispers in your ear: “You need you. Look within.” I think I might attend another class.”

6. Visions of Wrong Terrance: The perfect bacon sandwich
(nominated by Josh)

“This chain of bacon butty one-upmanship went on for some time, until I decided to ignore the question and concentrate on more pressing aspects of my life, such as getting a job, having a shave, and completing the final historical challenge on Brian Lara Cricket on the Playstation 2.”
