The Stranger's annual amateur-and-locally-produced porn festival—HUMP!—inspired you to make the film that's making you famous. We're thrilled for you, of course, but it seems to us that you owe HUMP! some love. The genius that is Humpday is entirely your doing, of course, and all artistic credit goes to your and your remarkable cast. But... no HUMP!, no Humpday, am I right? So your friends at the Stranger are challenging you to make a film for HUMP! Nothing to onerous, nothing feature-length, nothing that forces your actors or the characters they're playing to take stock of their lives. Just something cute and sexy and funny and under five minutes. HUMP! gave you so much. Give somethin' back to HUMP!, Lynn.

HUMP! rules, submission details, and deadlines are here.

Hasn't Humpday already given HUMP! more than it could've ever dreeeeeeamed of in a million billion years? Or am I missing something? Probably I'm just missing the joke here as usual.

@1 The only joke is Dan's big fat ego. Lynn should stay far, far away.

Her next film features Sherman Alexie and Sean Nelson, right? Two birds, one stone, and all that.

THAT would be fantastic. HUMP! could use some talented submissions.

You guys should change the date for hump. It clashes with the March on Washington Oct 10 - 11 in DC. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE. I want both porn and to fight for equality. What is a gay to do?
