Bestiality! Bukkake! Scandal! The popuLIST Takes Flight

November 13th, 2006 by Larry Smith

Under the diligent and delightful wing of editor Rachel Fershleiser, SMITH recently launched the popuLIST, our weekly Q & A. We Q you about your take on current events; you A us with profoundly personal, politically savvy, cool and candid, gloriously gruesome stories. All this happens in 100 words or less, or, as it turns out, many more, given that so many of you would rather just write then adhere to our attempts at structure. Namaste. Or, as our friend Abby Ellin (who has yet to write for SMITH, btw) likes to say: knock yourself out.

Last week we asked you who’d you most want to do if the world was going to end. You got nitty and gritty with tales of bukkake, beastiality and adding the proverbial exclamation point to first crushes.

Which brings us to this week’s question: You’re in Congress right now—congrats! What’s the scandal that’s going to bring you down?

We’ll put the best stories on the front page of SMITH. Those who play by the rules have a better chance of getting selected. The top post of the month wins a limited-edition SMITH tee.
