Giveaway: Dexter: The Complete Second Season on Blu-ray!
By Great White Snark | April 20, 2009
Have you got yourself a Blu-ray player, yet? Not me. I’m still waiting for the price to drop to a point where I can barter a stack of old Men’s Health magazines and a really heartfelt hug for one.
Anyway. If you’re one of those fancy-pants early adopters who already owns an electronical Blu-ray playing device, I offer you this contest to win Dexter: The Complete Second Season on Blu-ray.
Not to worry, this contest requires very little skill, hand-eye-coordination, knowledge of obscure trivia, or charisma. You basically only need to be awake and have at least two operable digits on your hands to play.
To sign up to win a copy of Dexter: The Complete Second Season on Blu-ray:
- If you haven’t already, get an e-mail subscription to Great White Snark. It won’t cost you nuthin’.
- Leave a comment on this post. In the “Mail (will not be published)” field, enter the same e-mail address of your subscription, so I know who you are.
- In the comment, name which Star Trek character would make the worst serial killer, and why. (Don’t look at me like that. I make the rules, people.)
I’ll select the winner at random and announce them in an update to this post next Tuesday, April 28.
UPDATE: Movie Meg and her randomly-selected shameless pandering take it.
One entry per person. And remember, cheaters never prosper, because I’ve got your IP address, people: duplicate entries are dopey entries. Winners outside the forty-eight contiguous U.S. states pay shipping. Because this ain’t a money tree, it’s just a plain ol’ blog.

If you’re asking about any character from the Star Trek universe, it’s got to be Worf. First of all, he only believes in killing when it’s justified – look at the guilt he still carries from accidentally killing a boy in a soccer game when he was a teenager. Killing in battle is one thing, but murder is completely different. Besides, I think he’d believe his honour to be tarnished by taking lives of others outside of a battle situation.

I’d have to go with Scotty…
He was always complaining about what he could or couldn’t do…
or Giordi from TNG…
It would be difficult to sneak up on people wearing a hair barete on your face…

OK, I really want this one, there’s whole stack of Men’s Health magazines in it for you. Note to your “random” selection method *wink*wink*
Scotty, by far, would be the worst serial killer. He’s just so pleasant and unassuming, and his accent renders him very non-threatening. Plus, I’m pretty sure anyone could outrun older, portly Scotty no problem. Oh yeah, I’m kickin’ it old school.
Runner up: Wesley Crusher
(Awesome question by the way. This comment is in no way engineered to stroke your ego, thereby increasing my chances of winning the “random” draw. Also, instead of giving away spiffy prizes, you could buy yourself a PS3…no wait, forget I said anything.)

I vote for Wesley Crusher. He’s too innocent, as is displayed in most episodes.
Most likely? Spock. Hello? No emotions. No problem. (Well minimal emotions etc.)
April 21st, 2009 at 4:29 pm
The Doctor (EMH). He’d insist on talking about it to someone.
April 21st, 2009 at 4:45 pm
Bones. I don’t think he could do it.
April 21st, 2009 at 4:51 pm
I would have to say it would be the whole class of red shirts. They would obviously not last past their first kill.

Q.
Oh, sure, it would be fun for a while, crushing out the life spirits of those creatures of lesser importance than you, but quickly the novelty would wear off, and he’d be right back to messing around with Picard to gain a deeper insight into how these puny humans think.
Second guess: Porthos, Jonathan Archer’s beagle. Why? Because he’s a dog.

Spock. ’cause of his ears.

Definitely Rom. You know he has it in him to be a serial killer. I’m surprised he never killed anyone on DS9 after all those years of being bullied for his smaller-than-average lobes, his wife stealing all his money & running off with another, and finally being publicly humiliated by his brother daily while working for an ever decreasing share of the profit. You’d think his rage would boil over any moment into a killing spree that would make a Cardassian blush. Premium serial killer material, if it wasn’t for his small lobes. He’s so bad at anything he tries, he’d be caught before the bodies could even begin to stack up. In fact, he’s probably responsible for Quark’s Bar in Vegas closing, thus costing you your Starfleet Academy Ring. Such a loser.
p.s. Scotty was tried & barely acquitted of being a serial killer, proving at least someone in the Federation thought he could do it.

Tribbles. Tribbles could kill in cold blood.
April 23rd, 2009 at 6:22 pm
Dr McCoy – I’m a doctor, not a serial killer Jim!
April 24th, 2009 at 5:19 pm
Bones, because he would only kill one person. Bring them back with his little hand held…. then kill them again…. and again…
April 26th, 2009 at 3:52 pm
Wesley Crusher, hands down. I don’t think his psyche could handle the strain.
April 28th, 2009 at 2:49 pm
I’m going to vote for…
Data. He would probably be very methodical about it and you wouldn’t see it coming, it’s just Data. Besides, he could pull of the look similar to what’s on the cover above, and it wouldn’t look all that out of place.

Movie Meg = winner.
