Dibs Registry

The Dibs Registry is yet another genius website thought up by the Spreader of Truth himself, Stephen Colbert. It was first mentioned the November 30, 2006 episode of Comedy Central's The Daily Show with John Stewart. During the Daily/Colbert toss, he rightfully pointed out that he had called dibs on three of the stories that Stewart had stolen: the "Michael Richards Affair", the Pope visiting Turkey, and Malachi. Stewart had the cajones to say that a person can't just call dibs on a story. Colbert told Stewart about the Dibs Registry at DibsRegistry.com. The website (dibsregistry.com was not available, but .net was) is a wonderful forum created by hero Tom Gersic right after the show aired. Whenever there is a post by John Stewart or Stephen Colbert, a small picture of his face is shown next to his name (just as Stephen said in the toss).

The site has recently been given what most consider an upgrade, although Pumpkins everywhere are weeping for and begging for a "more orange-y" color scheme. There have been many notable "dib wars" and "dib fests."
