If you are a gentleman who came of age around the early ’90s, you probably have about a zillion Legos, Lincoln Logs, K’Nex, and other assorted tchotchkes stored in your parents’ attic right now.

Call your mom. Get them out. Then get ready to be very disappointed.

Last week, adult performer and 2014’s XBiz Most Promising New Starlet award winner Christy Mack (NSFW) tweeted the following proposition: 

The response on Twitter was enthusiastic, to say the least. Millions of plastic blocks all clicked together in concert:

After Mack set the submission deadline for March 1, the entries started rolling in. Some, clearly, were the result of cursory Google Image searches:

While others actually seemed legit:

This dude from Barstool Sports hand-delivered his own construction, a car and a puppy:

And this guy clearly thought he could score points for cleverness over artistry (judging by Mack’s reply, he might actually have been right):

One enterprising architect even recorded a theme song for the challenge and put it on YouTube:

Unfortunately for Mack’s fans, and toy store proprietors nationwide (who must’ve been really, really confused by the onslaught of adults depleting their Lego stock), the Lego challenge drew to an abrupt close yesterday evening. The starlet tweeted that lawyers for the company had contacted her, objecting to her usage of the Lego name:

Still, it’s not like Mack’s efforts were for naught: she tweeted that she received “over 100 legitimate submissions, and well over 500 shit ones.” We’ve reached out to Mack to see if she’d like to share her favorites, and will update if we get a response from her. 

And even if the Great Twitter Blowjob Lego Competition of 2014, not to mention its entrants, never quite reached its natural climax, we’ll always have this gem of a soundbite from Mack to remember it by:

Dibs on putting this on my tombstone, y’all.
