The Dirty Dozenth

Josh and I have been applying to Ain't it Cool News' Butt-Numb-a-Thon (BNAT) every year since we've been married (so... to make it easy for you... this will be our fourth year). BNAT is a 24-hour film festival that takes place in Austin, TX. The films are always a mix of vintage and not-yet-released and there are usually a few actors or directors that do Q and As afterward.

Each year we have had to submit themed pictures. Last year's theme was THX 1138 so we submitted pictures of ourselves bald. This year's theme is The Dirty Dozenth BNAT and we had to submit pictures of ourselves doing things that should be punishable by death (not things that actually are punishable by death)-- like pet peeves. Due to The Dirty Dozen theme, wearing fatigues was a bonus.

Here is what we came up with:

Josh as Che Guevara taking DVDs out of their cases and not putting them back

Me as Fidel Castro playing on the power pad without first taking off my shoes

We also had to make a video of ourselves singing the jingle from a Japanese commercial featuring Charles Bronson for a product called Mandom.

It only took one take.



After we finished and it was edited, I realized it might have been a good idea for me to brush my hair or something. I'm always forgetting the details.

We find out in a few days whether we've been accepted. Fingers crossed!

UPDATE: We were accepted for the fourth year in a row!! So cool!!
