Every. Single. Week.<\/p>\n<p>Since Chuck will run out of ideas somewhere in 2018 (a tad short of our goal), One Pass will shamelessly accept and beg for your submissions of how a Waterblade made your life easier&#8230; or more interesting&#8230; or how it helped you met your spouse. You get the idea.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding submissions, there are three important points you should be aware of:<\/p>\n<p>1. We welcome funny &amp; bizarre submissions, but may omit those we consider offensive. We&#8217;re not going to run it by the PC police or anything, just use our own somewhat twisted judgement.<\/p>\n<p>2. We&#8217;re willing to overlook SOME actual facts, take your word for it and report it like the tabloids do. It has to be plausible though.<\/p>\n<p>For example: We have every reason to believe a Waterblade COULD be used to quickly remove alien saliva from your space suit.<\/p>\n<p>3. This is the good part where we bribe you.<br \/>\nOur esteemed judges will occasionally choose a submission at random and give them a prize&#8230; Maybe even a good one, but no promises. It will likely depend on just how desperate we are for something to post and how entertaining your story is. True stories get extra points.<\/p>\n<p>Be a part of history and follow along!<br \/>\nEvery. Single.
