The final Giveaway from our whirlwind "1,000, are you f'ing kidding me, POSTS!!"
Prize #4 is.... THE ANSWER ME GNOME!
You know you want it. Shake him up like a "magic 8 ball" for such joy as "Keep of the Grass!" Let it make your decisions! This classy thing is pretty big too like 8" or so? Plus it's sold out at Perpetual Kid!
So rules to get this masterpiece!:
1. Comment here! For the love of god.. No "I'm a subscriber" and No "enter me please"... I read all the comments and although I love the effort, I get bored easy. How about something like a good billboard you read? Or why I shouldn't eat cheese (it makes you gassy!) or even what the gnome will help you decide! I like random.
2. All Entries need to be in by Monday the 22nd by 10:00am est
3. I'll randomly pick a winner that day (using Random.org) and email them!
4. If you don't respond in three days a number two is drawn! (heh heh... #2).
That is all! Happy Gnoming everyone!
this is such a cute idea.Our grandson is crazy about gnomes. I would have to let him play with it!

Could i put the gnome in my lawn? If i win ? A talking gnome( other than the one thats on those stupid travelocity ads)now ive seen everything .
ReplyDeleteThe Magic 8 Ball is one of the most important things in my office. Unfortunately, when I changed offices I bequethed my Magic 8 Ball to my supervisor (she would have been lost w/out it) and now I am in search of an alternate divinatory means to keep my new office running smoothly.
ReplyDeleteLast job, people hid gnomes on desks (as they were shy) and I was floored to see a gnome like this.
What a combination! Gnome meets Magic 8 ball!
Thanks for the contest!
Gas prices here in Southern OH are around 1.78 a gallon. Just wondering what they are where you live.

Why the more hurried I get, the slower everyone else seems.?
ReplyDeleteGnomes are cool. They aren't creepy and scary like clowns are. Ick. Have you ever noticed how some Santas are scary looking, too?
ReplyDeleteWow, I loved the magic 8 ball when I was a kid! This would be so awesome to win!! Thank you for a great contest!
ReplyDeleteEveryone have a great week!
ReplyDeleteSuch a strange little gnome, I think I"ll wrap it for my dad for Christmas because he wonders what I'm getting him and I just won him a $500 gift card to some camera store a couple months ago and didn't get a thing from it so he can have this gnome, I know him it will give him hours of entertainment and my husband will be jealous I gave it away.
ReplyDeletebeagan419@yahoo.com

ReplyDeleteI am a subscriber.
ReplyDeleteIf a turtle doesn't have a shell, is he homeless or naked?

Ahem. Dear danosor, although I appreciate taking time out of your busy schedule to post a comment, your time might have been better spent if you read the rules. Thank you for trying and please enjoy the rest of the Loopy blog at your leisure.
ReplyDeleteThanks - the Management
P.S. I am totally loving these comments! Gotta say, these have got to be the best ones EVA!
ReplyDeleteYou guys rule!
P.S.S. I've had 2 cans of coke in the last hour and am getting worried I haven't had the urge to pee yet...I wonder when my eyes will start turning yellow?
This reminds me of the traveling Gnome, only better because it helps to decide those hard to decide questions. This is really cute and fun. I would love when my kids are driving me crazy and they are asking for this and that, to tell them to go ask the Gnome. lol
ReplyDeleteSeriously, I think this would be really unique and fun.
Thanks so much for this giveaway.
just hope everyone has a nice holiday that christmas to you
ReplyDeleteit's great to see that magic eight ball technology has advanced along with the rest of world
ReplyDeleteI send my son to pick out a Christmas card for his teacher from a box of random cards. He coms down with a beet red face. He says read this mom. There is a girl on the front that says all I want for Christmas is, and then you open it and it says BIGGER BOOBS. He was embarrassed but also trying to laugh. Not sure where the card came from.
ReplyDeletemerry christmas! we are about to get a foot of snow in 12 hours :) thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI wonder, if everyone in the world jumped up in the air and landed at the same time, would it affect the earth's orbit?

I'd like for the gnome to tell me what I should be when I grow up. Thanks for the giveaway!

Thanks

I love Gnomes so much that I once contemplated the whole stealing gnomes thing. I am bad at things like that though. My luck, I would stand in someone's yard and debate about it, then their dog would come up and bite me in the bootie, then I would pee myself and that would be how I was found. I like collecting things. I collect Buddhas too. I wonder if it is OCD or just the old lady in me coming out early.
ReplyDeletescarey_karma@yahoo.com
wow this is like realy ok like you know and well i love to have this for my girls room to put with all her fairys and things not olny that but well my kid loves gnomes and nomes thanks
ReplyDeletesounde like a lot of fun thanks
ReplyDeleteGnomes are great. It would be nice to use when I can't make a decision. Why not let it decide where to go on bacation.
ReplyDeleteThis is so what I need under my tree. I give strange and silly gifts at a christmas party I hold every year.
ReplyDeletehow cute... I could put him on my desk and shake him up while I work every once in a while when I get bored.
ReplyDeleteMerry christmas and happy new year
ReplyDeleteThere's no place like gnome.

I'm a litigation paralegal, so I'm going to use the gnome to make important legal decisions worth tens of thousands of dollars.
ReplyDeletegaleogirl(at)comcast(dot)net
I love gnomes
ReplyDeleteThis is a great prize!
ReplyDeleteThe gnome will answer whether I should stay or go. :-) Just kidding .. I'm gonna use him to decide if I should buy lottery tickets or not.
ReplyDeleteThis is the best! My husband and I could use it to solve every argument we have!
ReplyDeleteJennifer, jennem22 at yahoo dot com
this gnome is the best........no speaking unless spoken to, and portable so he can provide answers en route to anywhere.......Happy Holidays!
ReplyDeleteI wore out Eight balls as a kid. I turned them around and around until the plastic case fell off. Glass underneath in case you were wondering. Must have been shopping for the right answer or indesisive. (spelld wrong) Need dictionary and longer attn span.
ReplyDeletecharlottewinters@cox.net
I still have my magic 8 ball-maybe the gnome will help me decide if I should get a new job

I like the gnome, but I love the name of your website.
ReplyDeleteHow about I am NOT a subscriber!!! My son would get a kick out of this little guy! justicecw@hotmail.com
ReplyDeleteWant a way to relax this season without stressing about cost (you said random!) find an accredited massage therapy school in your area - with a good reputation and visit the student clinic. It costs between 20-30 dollars and these students will have just finished learning the body from the cellular level on up. Great idea for a gift too. If you like the student see them again - if not - choose someone else. Like any massage, feel free to give feedback during the massage - lighter heavier etc.
ReplyDeleteOr want to try a new color on your hair - try an ayerveydic school and get it colored naturally.
Is the gnome rubber? That color strikes me as a dog toy or chewing gum. Is it paintable? I'd also like to see how the gnome interacts with my magic 8 ball. I suspect sooner or later they'd both suggest getting rid of the other.
ReplyDeletethe gnome knows all. i must have his wisdom at the tip of my fingers!
ReplyDeleteSuper cute! I wore out my Magic 8 ball when I was younger!!!!

LOVE it! There are so many questions I could ask, for starters, should I have another baby? Hee!!
ReplyDeletethe gnome is mine, i wish, i have gnomes all over my house and yard. gnomes love me!
ReplyDeleteThe gnome might be able to do more winning for me than I do :)
ReplyDeletePerhaps the gnome might help me decide if I should dress up like Michael Myers for Halloween to scare my sister! I'm torn!

Gnomes are groovy. Did you know that owls will refuse to eat things killed by lightning? Even gnomes.
ReplyDeleteHow much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

As if my blog name doesn't tell you I am psychotic (teehee) when I was in college, I used to carry around a Magic 8 ball in my backpack. And a mini slinky too, but I digress. Can you imagine me with this gnome? He'd live in my purse and go everywhere! Oh the questions he could answer...
ReplyDeleteI still have that 8 ball, but it doesn't work right anymore. A drunk guy shook it apparently past the point of no return, and now it has gas (LOL) there are all these extra bubbles in it, and you can't really read the answers. Why do I keep it? Beats me!
If I win this contest, I'll be happy that I will sing "Sweet Gnome Alabama" . I understand I didn't need to tell you that because it really isn't gnome of your business. I like being open though. It is how I am with my gnomies, gnome what I mean?
ReplyDeleteI wonder if the gnome has any good answers about the stock market & such. Hmmmm... wgbc1446@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteI think this gnome would make my tedious, totally lame job a lot more awesome, but that's just me.
ReplyDeleteblackbird0615@yahoo.com
I have to win this..let's just say me and gnomes go way back..and I wouldn't mind have one I can shake about..who ever thought gnomes would make good oracles..but I love them..this is too funny..Save the Gnomes..

ReplyDeleteI love gnomes, they are rather silly to look at but mysterious at the same time.
ReplyDeleteGnomes gnever gname gnames.
ReplyDeleteit looks like something that should be talking dirty to you, but that's a story for another time!
ReplyDeleteSo...never, ever do this on the same day:

Don't say I didn't warn you. For real.
The Magic 8-Ball, manufactured by Mattel, is a toy used for fortune-telling or seeking advice. Invented in 1946 by Abe Bookman of the Alabe Toy Company, it is a hollow, plastic sphere resembling an oversized, black and white 8-ball. Inside is a white, plastic, icosahedral die floating in a dark blue liquid. Each of the 20 faces of the die has an affirmative, negative, or non-committal statement printed on it in raised letters. There is a transparent window on the bottom of the 8-ball through which these messages can be read.
ReplyDeleteTo use the ball, it must be held with the window initially facing down. After "asking the ball" a yes-or-no question, the user then turns the ball so that the window faces up, setting in motion the liquid and die inside. When the die floats to the top and one of its faces is pressed against the window, the raised letters displace the blue liquid to reveal the message as white letters on a blue background. Contrary to popular belief, it is not necessary (or recommended) to shake or jostle the ball before turning it, as doing so can create air bubbles that may visually distort the answer.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to ask the gnome all the questions I have been wondering about such as Why did the chicken cross the road, If a tree falls in the forest does it make a sound, Ginger or Mary Ann, Boxers or briefs, Where can I get a cheap good tasting hamburger. garrettsambo@aol.com
ReplyDeleteThis is cute. I would ask him why so my daughter is always running late for school no matter how early I wake her up
ReplyDeleteOk here is a random comment. We were driving through Maine on vacation this summer. In a little town as we passed the only hotel, I saw the hotel billboard saying

Heated Poop
Yes, they had Heated Poop. I have never laughed so hard. Unfortunately my family missed the sign and think that I was just seeing things. I swear it said "Heated Poop".
I would love to win the funny gnome! Thanks!

ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! How cute. I have a thing for Gnomes!!! We have about 8 inches of snow on the ground. YIKES!`
ReplyDeleteThe Magic 8 Ball was a classic when we were in school and I would love to pass something down like this to my son or one of my nephews and at least it doesn't look scary like those lawn gnomes lol
