Human garbage pile/fantasy author Vox Day evidently thought he was being very clever when he included the gloriously weird, butt-obsessed (world’s greatest) author Chuck Tingle in his Rabid Puppy slate for the Hugo Awards, assuming that a Hugo nomination for the man behind such ridiculous and hallucinatory metafiction as Pounded in the Butt by My Own Butt would make the evil Social Justice Warriors see red.
Then Tingle out-trolled Vox — VOXMAN, in Tinglespeak — by announcing that, as he wouldn’t be able to attend the Hugo awards himself he would be sending “true buckaroo ZOE QUINN” to accept the award for him.
Tingle has now expanded his crusade against VOXMAN and his soft devilman agenda by putting up a site mocking the Rabid Puppies at the URL TheRabidPuppies.com. Because VOXMAN — oops! — didn’t think to register that domain.
As Tingle explains, in his inimitable style,
sometimes devilmen are so busy planning scoundrel attacks they forget to REGISTER important website names. this is a SOFT WAY of the antibuckaroo agenda but is also good because it makes it easy for BUDS WHO KNOW LOVE IS REAL to prove love (all).
please understand this is website to take DARK MAGIC and replace with REAL LOVE for all who kiss the sky.
To further thwart VOXMAN’s “scoundrel attacks,” Tingle is using the page to promote the work of some of VOXMAN’s least favorite people. He recommends the Hugo-nominated The Fifth Season by N. K. Jemisin, the target of one of VOXMAN’s most notorious racist attacks.
Tingle also promotes the Crash Override network, the anti-harassment initiative of his new “best friend zoe quinn,” declaring it a “nice network to give MEAN BULLIES the boot this is good place to donate and PROVE LOVE REAL.” (Seriously; it’s a great resource.)
And he puts in a plug for “If You Were a Dinosaur, My Love” author Rachel Swirsky’s “posteriors for posterity” fundraiser for lgbtq health.
Oh, and the Billings, Montana public library. (Tingle says he lives in Billings.)
It’s almost as if LOVE IS REAL.

You could go so far as to say that Vox is now the butt of his own joke.
A website with a shirtless Channing Tatum on it, no less.
Dang, I wish I’d thought of that!
Yes, pitshade, but is he being pounded in the butt by the butt of his own joke yet?
This buttception is giving me tingles of joy.
I just had a look at the web site, and I must say love is real, indeed.
Maybe if Quinn gets to pick up Tingle’s award.
Wow… I know someone already said it, but Chuck Tingle is indeed a treasure.
It’s glorious. GLORIOUS!
Let’s all hope the good doctor wins. Down with scoundrels and devilmen!
Love is indeed real! Chuck is giving me tingles.
Oh, Chuck. Get out of my dreams. And into my butt.*
*Sung to the tune of that Get out of my dreams and into my bed song. Don’t remember who it’s by.
If Dr. Bronner’s ever decided to include porntastic short-short stories on their soap bottles, Chuck Tingle would write them. No contest.

Billy Ocean – “Get Out of My Dreams (and into my car).”
I may’ve not read a single thing by the man, but Chuck Tingle is quickly becoming my favorite person at the moment.
Tingle makes my inner grammar-correcting blue self haggard through his endearing sublimation of chaos into pure joy.
Oops! My friend and I have been substituting “butt” into the song for so long that I forgot the real words.
I really want to get one of his books and take turns reading it out loud with friends.
@katz
It probably woulda been harder to find a pic of him with clothes on
Also, the Keanu meme on the site is priceless
@throwaway
It’s weirdly endearing! 😀
I’m completely delighted by all of this.
Serves me right for not paying attention. I would SO have bought a site named TheRabidPuppies.com
Looks like Tingle is making the Puppies regret their games! This makes me very happy.
I have to say that in all my early life in Billings, I never even came close to seeing such a Tingle. Far out. Cows, cowboys, and salty-earth folks, but no Tingles. What an interesting creature he is.
“Pounded in the butt of my own joke!”

‘Scuse me while I kiss this guy…
