iMac Giveaway

What more do I really need to say. It’s a fucking brand new iMac!!! Once again Craig from Apple comes through on the hookup for Truth of a Liar and my readers. An absolutely amazing giveaway, and Im really thankful for it. I would have to say in 8 months of this blog this is by far the biggest giveaway we have had, and we had had some big ones the last few months. This is going to be the last really big one for a while too, I feel like these giveaways though are popular, they take away from the blog. There will always be giveaways happening, christ Im doing another one tomorrow for the ladies on a lot smaller scale mind you haha. So please pass the word around, tell your friends, post it up on your blogs, FB, Twitter, etc. Lets make this huge.

I continue you to have to repeat myself which to be completely honest is a bit annoying. When it comes to choosing a winner there are a few things I look at. First and foremost comment creativity. 50 words or less and no sob stories. I also look for readers that continue to comment the posts, not JUST on giveaways. And of course if you are referring people to the Twitter & Facebook Group thats always a plus, but not necessarily enough to win. Also if you have already bought, or do show support and buy a “Black Metal Liar” shirt that will definitely help you in my eyes. It’s a combination of all those things that stands out when picking a winner. With that said, good luck. Myself, Craig and the Apple team will be reviewing the comments, so make them good and keep in mind all I stated above. Winner will be announced on the 15th @ 12AM.

    I would love to win this! If I was able to win, I could then buy your shirts for my whole family since I wouldn’t have to save for a new computer anymore lol. :P I wish I was more funny, seems it comes across wrong when I try. So just put me in for an entry please and thank you.

  2. Nathaniel Matthews Says:

    Although my aspirations are high, my motivation is higher. Independent, honest, and I’ll keep my integrity ‘till I die. My work is my life. I plan to use it, to show the way I lived it. A zine/lifestyle project is in the works. This would bring me closer to success.

  3. Reece Dillon Says:

    haha wow, pretty crazy giveaway! how could i not give this a shot.
    first of all i’m putting this on Facebook and twitter right now.
    secondly to win an Imac would blow my mind, i could start making my drawings digital and learn more about design, after i clean the mess off the monitor when my pants make happy. this is amazing. would love to be considered for an entry! this is my first post, but i’m a long time lurker!

  4. Brandon McIntyre Says:

    Hi! I dont have a computer, I have an iTouch. Apple product?yes. A bit small and non-accomodating? Yes, again. I would love an iMac for myself. Though I would probably have to share with my iTouch. Thank you.

  5. Trevor Says:

    Thats a pretty awesome giveaway!
    Really, who wouldn’t want to win an iMac!?!

  6. Lisa G Says:

    Joined your facebook. I didn’t know you had a facebook group. I am in! I think your cool and your blog posts keep me reading. Like your post you did Whats Up Gangstars just made me laugh as soon as I saw it lol Thanks for the chance. @ladylisa1

  7. reva skie Says:

    I would love to win this to see if Macs live up to their hype. Windows based laptops are so cheap these days, you hate to spring for a Mac when you can just buy a cheap new lappy every so often.

  8. jake Says:

    Man this Would be amazing to have, im tired of trying to edit big raw files with my bill gates,I need a new steve jobs to get it done

  9. Oladipo Malik Says:

    if i win this, i can finally call myself a true apple fan boy

  10. Jacqueline Griffin Says:

    It’s funny when you have children, you buy everything for them but never yourself, that is of coarse because their is never enough money to completely go around..LOL. I would LOVE to win this!! Thank you for the opportunity.

  11. 1Tennesse Says:

    I “NEED”…This “BAD__”MAC” soo..”Bad if you Could only see the “hunk of junk” Im using right now “old dell” I Want To Be The “Biggest-And- Baddest” Winner Yet..!!”Thank u 4 the Opportunity”!

  12. patty herbert Says:

    Wow!!! that is one awesome giveaway but what else could we expect from you guys. Thanks again

  13. Kim Says:

    I just came across your blog on Twitter and I can honestly say I love it. Straight forward and to the point. Even has F-bombs. I will now be a loyal follower.

    My son has always told me that a MAC computer is the only way to go.

  14. Killtron Says:

    i need an imac.

  15. el duderino Says:

    i’d love to win this so i could stop using my girlfriend’s pc, bring the rad mac to my place and then spend some time at place for once. you’re right mang, best giveaway ever!

  16. Ann A Says:

    I really need that iMac! I love your posts and pictures. They are all very unique! What a nice guy you are to offer this nice system.

    ;)

  17. Braden Says:

    My roommate is a broke ass art student and his girlfriend spilt water on his old mac laptop. Now the keyboard doesn’t work and he’s been saving for a new comp for the last 6 months. I’d give it to him so he can keep working on his freelance.

  18. Alli Says:

    A mac computer, wow. Can’t believe I might actually have a chance. What more is there to say, this is an imac giveaway!!
    Of course I follow you on twitter and visit your blog too. Hope to hear I’m the winner soon!

  19. Susan Says:

    If I won this great giveaway it would mean I would be able to take a bite out the mighty Apple! It’s so exciting! Thanks for giving me the opportunity to win it!

  20. Amber Says:

    I’m a writer, a blogger, and an artist. I love anything that ignites my creativity. My current PC (ew, I know, a PC…) is slower than a waddling prostitute after working double shifts. If I had my own iMac I would utilize it to work on a vlog, and create a better blog. I also have a few other internet projects in the works that I would love to use the iMac for. I love the iMac’s sleek design. I also want to use the iMovie software that is on the iMac so I can edit and work on fun videos. Such as that sex tape that nearly ruined my acting career…er, wait, nevermind. Help a bitch out, and give me something that I can put to good use. Once you go Mac, you never go back. Thanks!

  21. Amber Says:

    Shit, I went over 50 words!I got so excited I forgot to word-count. Please skim like 60% of my message above off, and just keep the main point. Mama needs a brand new Mac! Oh and I’m tweeting this to help spread the word

  22. David M Says:

    I just started out with a new photography website this year and I’m trying to get my name out. A new iMac would be a really cool tool to help develop my photo’s and skills. Having the right equipment is essential, and buying it can be impossible sometimes. Boo PC.

  23. Cheyne Says:

    I bust my ass trying to push my clothing company off the ground, while working a full time job an hour away from where I live. I’m an autodidact “designer” who would love nothing more than some new computing power to help further his aspirations of one day quitting Walmart.

  24. Melissa B Says:

    This is a great giveaway! Im sure that everyone has a reason why they would want to win just like me, I would love to have a new imac. I read through your blog when ever I see you on twitter to see what new posts you have…honestly I checked out your blog because of the giveaway but I really like your posts and will continue to read them after the giveaway.

  25. Crystal Warren Says:

    If I win I will use my finely honed Jedi mind powers on your true love and get her back 4 you..Swear this I do…

  26. Diane Says:

    I have heard so much about the IMac, I’ve only “heard” I’ve never had the opportunity to own an Imac. Thanks for the opportunity!

  27. little tony Says:

    There was a giveaway on the famous internet.
    I told all my friends and boy did they fret.
    I wanted that iMac because it was so rad.
    There was competition, but their entries were sad.
    To win that competition was my greatest desire.
    I won that sweet iMac from TRUTHOFALIAR!

  28. Matthew Volp Says:

    I’m doing media production at university, and to have an iMac would just be, well, basically, out of this world. I’m extremely passionate about my work and what I have achieved, and to have this opportunity would just make all my dreams complete and would certainly kick-start my career. Thanks.

  29. DannyGirl Says:

    As much as my 4 feet deep Trinitron moniter, and my dust coughing HP (circa 2000) have been a pleasure to sit and yell at for the past few years, some honest power and simplicity would probably do this photographer well…even though the wobble in my screen has made the pretty girls look like they’re dancing…It’s time to move on.

  30. qson Says:

    i ain’t gonna lie, ima use it to look up porn.
    i bricked my old pentium III pc doing it.
    ima do it if i win this.
    and ima do it the very day i get it.
    straight up, porn on an imac would be mad ill.
    word is bond!

  31. David Says:

    Four reasons.
    1- Love the Blog
    2- Love the shirt
    3- Love the Mac
    4- Jew.

  32. Stijn Says:

    love this hope someone good wins, shirt will be bought and I LOVE TOAL :)

  33. andrew b Says:

    i want an imac so bad that it hurts. please help me out.

  34. Dan Says:

    College kid trying to get his life together and follow my dreams. I want to start my own blog soon and this computer would definitely help me out a lot, as well as with my schooling. Keep up the good work, live free, ride fixed.

  35. Debra P Says:

    No sob stories,
    this would be amazing for our family.
    It would get used more than Paris Hilton – not as publicly though.
    Really dig your blog and your twitter, facebook posts.
    Good luck all.

  36. Killtron Says:

    ill send you naked pictures.

  37. DannyGirl Says:

    I’ll send you naked pictures of everyone I know.

  38. SteveO Says:

    I am PC retarded. and I hear Macs are easy as pie. I love pie. Give me the Mac please, unless you have pie. I will definitely take pie

  41. Brandon Says:

  42. Kim Says:

    I’ll send you naked pictures of everyone I know and even those I don’t know.

  43. mark Says:

    if you look at the picture on my twitter page, you’ll see why my dog wants a mac and not a laptop running windows.

  44. Chris Taylor Says:

    been following & tweeting. You can make a old woman happy with this win

  45. Jacqueline Griffin Says:

    How fun it would be to have something that is more nice than what my kids have.

  46. Ashley Says:

    Im part of a group of canadian students heading over to Haiti to lend hand. This would be ideal for us to connect with our families back home. Afterwards we could easily leave it behind to help those who are in need. Please consider this request. Thanks!

  47. Jane Says:

    This iMac would do wonders for me Chris. I am in school, and doing it all myself. Been on my own since I was 17 and really could use a new cpu for school. Would honestly just make everything easier on me. Thanks for considering me

  48. Ina Says:

    Your blog reminds me of the ellen show. Always amazing stuff to see, always amazing giveaways, and funny as hell.
    Would love the iMac, but even if i dont get it ill still keep coming back, my prize is this site. Great job for keeping my attention

  49. julie l Says:

    Honestly, it’d be really f*cking cool to win this. I’m not going to beg or whine though! I will say I have commented on other posts (PRIOR) to this!

  50. Brandon Says:

    Chris! this website just plain kicks ass. Ive followed your myspace and this website for a while, its actually my homepage when i logon. Its got kicka** tunes ideas, and funny stuff all around, only blog to keep me for more then a few days!

  51. Matt Vogels Says:

    Love the blog man! been following for a while now, all your giveaways are incredible but this one definately takes the cake! i personally don’t need a new computer but thought i would give this a shot because TRUTHOFALIAR keeps me entertained daily.

  52. Mike Says:

    Love the blog, love Apple, love to win the iMac

  53. bo Says:

    Thank you for such awesome giveaways, Chris.

    I’m graduating from college this spring, and wow, this would be the best graduation present I could ever dream of! I’ve never owned any Apple products in my life, so please pop my Mac cherry!

  54. Helen S. Says:

    I would love to win this prize. I would give it to my poor daughter who is a freshman in college and doesn’t have a laptop to use for homework. It would be a great present!

  55. Maura Says:

    This computer would be such a lifesaver for me! I’ve recently become the proud owner of my family’s old photo albums. I really want to scan, restore, duplicate, and preserve all of the old family photos, but doing so on my current computer would be difficult. It’s old, slow, and doesn’t have much space. I know Macs are the top choice for Photo Editing, Graphics work, etc…
    Aaaah! The possibilities would be endless if I won this!*Wish me luck!*

  56. 1Tennesse Says:

    I Seen a Tweet Today That Says People are Tweeting but No-one is Entering!I Want to Win Super-Bad, I Really Need a iMac I hope I Entered because I Follow Truth-Follower on Twitter, Im 1Tennesse and U Rule Just Tell Me Im Entered!

  57. Chris Taylor Says:

    Sorry, I been tweeting everyday.. Did not know you wanted a comment everyday, or do you? Now I am confused. Tweet me a word! Hope you find delight in your day!

  58. samantha Says:

    i sooooooooooo want to win a computer cuz i dont have one and my brother wont barly let me on

  59. Kathy Luman Says:

    I would love to win an iMac. To this day I have never seen anyone work on one. I would love to see if I would be converted from windows to imac. Here they are awesome. I would love a chance to find out for myself. So what do you say? Think you can convert me? I’m also following you on Facebook (Kathy Luman) and twitter (@kathyluman).

  60. Kimberly Says:

    Hey Chris! Awesome Blog! Always keeping it interesting you do! So I’m gonna try not to bore you…SO HERE’S THE DEAL: I’m Mom of 2 teenagers that recently started up her own music promotional biz (yeah totally from scratch) I would really LOVE to have an iMac so I can be WAY “Cooler” than my kids! I would especially love to torture my 16 yr old son since I would FINALLY have the better technology than he does! He and his buddy recently installed the Mac OS on his Dell laptop. They think they are pretty cool; It would be esp. great to watch the boys drool over his Mom’s new TOY!!! (he!he!)

  61. Kimberly Says:

    “HELLO I’m a PC” (but I secretly want to be a Mac;)

  62. Sandra Says:

    Sorry, I didn’t know we had to leave a comment for this. I would love to get a new Mac, mine is 5 years old and is running extremly slow, I think it’s on the way out.
    You want creativity? Buuh, that cancels me off the winners list! Bummer! :)

  63. Kim Says:

    Toshiba blows. Twice now my charger has bit the dust and only 7 months old.

  64. Travis Cook Says:

    I’m a designer in intense need of a new computer. Mine exploded. I’ll do you a free design! ;D okay, that’s pushing it…

  65. Kayle Innes Says:

    I think I would be a primmmmme candidate for the iMac because of one major reason. I have had my trusty Ibook g4 since 2001 and have never had to format it in it’s entire existance… Recently I had my entire cd collection stollen from me. Included in this collection was a time capsule of not only my childhood priceless favourite’s, but also a retrospective of this generations most creative artists. Fortunately I had most of these albums backed up on my Ibook. Buuuuut a few days ago my all faithful laptop decided to kick the bucket :( leaving me with only two hard copy CDs one being dance mix 95. In closing hahaha I need this iMac so I have a copy of iTunes to plugg my iPhone in to get updates, and to multitask promote Truthofaliar.com like there’s no tomorrow on my promo pages as well as make all the ladies wet by posting new pics of myself in handsome/beautiful situations all while wearing Truthofaliar.com swagg ;)

  66. jeco Says:

    i really really want and love to win this!!
    1. i always wanted to have an imac in my life!!
    2. but global crisis fucked up my life almost a year ago when my boss fired me!!
    3. i love your blog as i love my mum!!
    4. you got me to mishka clothing that now every month my gf gifted me some dope stuff from them!!
    5. i came from italy and if i want u can stay here in my house as long as you want!!

  67. Donna B. Says:

    I’m entering to win for my son. He’s majoring in education. He’s doing internship @ the Boys & Girls Club. After the first day he called me all excited, “Momma, I know what I want to do with my life.” This would help him with school now, his career later.

  68. mbdsmith Says:

    “Truth of a Liar” First let me say, I like what’s in the quotes. That being said, I’m not going to get on here and come up with all kinds of shit as to why I deserve to win the iMac giveaway. iMac rocks & I want one!

  69. Chris Is A Liar Says:

    ok so im going to make this short, and NOT so sweet. The person that won personally i dont feel should have, but my decision was over ruled and thats that.

    as for these giveaways. i really dont understand some of you. its so fuckin simple. 1 comment. 50 words or less. be creative. i had 1 person leave me a simple line about “pick me” almost 10 times and writing me emails sayin the same. WTF

    only a hand few of you actually listened. did what was required. i need to re evaluate the giveaways. possibly NO more big ones. this is supposed to be a fun part of the blog and people ruin it

    congradulations ashley, im sure your wakin up to an email now.

  70. Matthew Volp Says:

    Ahh well, well done Ashley.

  71. Stijn Says:

    Congrats Ashley, you deserve it the most :)

  72. Chris Taylor Says:

    Congrats 2 the winner – Ashley
    Thanks for the learning experience here.
    Good President’s Day 2 U!

  73. Kim Says:

    i have to say I Love your honesty Chris. Out of curiosity, why were you overruled? I thought it would be your decision as to who won.

  74. Nathaniel Matthews Says:

    Curious to see who you would have picked, just to see what entry you thought truly deserve to win this.

  75. Chris Is A Liar Says:

    I was over ruled because this was my giveaway, but Apple always makes the final decision on stuff they give. I will leave it at that.

    I believe that Lil Tony should have won. Creative, 50 words. Not a sob story. Plus he regularly comments the blog and supports. All things I look for.

  76. Matthew Volp Says:

    Nah i like lil tony’s little poem, somehow i missed it when i read through them! :)

  77. Donna B. Says:

    Yeah I thought Lil Tony should have won too, because he met all the criteria….. but you throw out the Haiti card and well, there you have it.

    Hopefully it wasn’t a bunch of BS just to win a contest.

  78. little tony Says:

    damn the man. that lady totally ate that computer, she didn’t give it to haitians. pictures will make me eat my words…and I will eat them shaped like spaghetti with some marinara.
