Dear You Guys…#2

A couple weeks ago, I tried my very first comment love letter.

You guys leave me – literally – laughing out loud with your comments, and I can’t tell you how much it means to me!

All the text below are exact sentences taken from your comments.  I’m not sure that this is as entertaining as the first one, but that one was all about strippers, so kinda hard to compete.

This is all you guys, and not me.

Can you find your comment?

——————————————————————-

Dear You Guys,

It never ends well when those heads separate from the sticks.  He’s perhaps dismembered, but dead? Never. He’s a unicorn.

We had a horse-head-on-a-stick that met the same fate. Being a bad mommy I couldn’t see keeping the head, since it made me feel like the Godfather had been in the playroom.

I’d be careful if I were you. It might not be as bad as a broken mirror, but I’d bet it’s worse than walking under a ladder.

I started out reading this being quite jealous of your Girl Time (and the fact that it seemed to start BEFORE dark).  You are a regular Monet, baby!!!  The internets are all inspired tonight!  It’s like being back in art class, but without all the high school hormones!  Woooo Hoooo!!!!

I am REDONKulously impressed with your painting. No really, I would have been an anxiety ridden, sweaty mess just THINKING about trying to replicate the sky for heavens sake.  I’m positive that I probably would have slaughtered it.  Now be honest, were there some pieces of art that turned out….like maybe a 3 year old did it.

Oh my gosh I have no words.  At least you knew up front, you’d be the tougher of the two of ya!  Men these days!  I need to kill them immediately, lest they have a chance to escape.

Seriously? He called for his mom?  Every wife wants not only to think that her husband isn’t able to save her from the hairy spiders, but also that he would call his mom in to the bathroom when she’s basically naked!  Priceless.

I’m pretty sure every spider every where is trying to kill me. It’s an arachnid conspiracy, pretty sure.  My man found a spider in the bathroom once and stood on the toilet until I came to kill it. Such a sissy.

Leave Craig alone, in all fairness the spider might outweigh him.

I think I love Craig more now.  *side note–i would totally have his babies*

This is such an original and fun idea! I’m sad that I missed the one about the strippers… I might have to go find it in your archives.

I’m so impressed with your creativity!

I’m laughing out loud, but I’m so confused that I’m not even really sure why.

And I left that spider comment when I was still censoring myself, because I remember typing “pussy”, and then going back and changing it to “sissy”. Now I wish I hadn’t!

Oh, these are too funny Liz! I feel almost famous for making it into the 2nd version…..and I’m wishing that Bethany hadn’t changed her original comment about the spider!

That’s really funny!! I haven’t blog hopped much this summer and I’m so glad I stopped by this morning to read this. You take the cake!

These are hilarious! I particularly like the one who said she couldn’t handle seeing the detached pony head because she felt like the Godfather had been in her playroom LOL! I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

Hilariously, I cannot find my comment. There’s one that’s almost mine but funnier….

That spider probably did outweigh Craig though. Perhaps they can form an ambiguously gay duo.

The word “unicorn” in any post is like my own personal Bat signal.

This is such a cool idea, Liz!

I love this idea! If I ever get cool like you? I may steal it. Muahahaha!

Omg. You are brilliant, hilarious, and so clever! What a neat idea. I might have to totally steal it from you.

These are hysterical! I love the “spider might outweigh him” comment. It makes me think of Harry Potter and Ron’s aversion to spiders which cracks me UP.

Natalie August 27, 2010 at 11:38 am

I need to start leaving wittier comments! I love your letters and need to make it in one ;)

Reply

Roxane August 27, 2010 at 12:17 pm

Yeah! I’m with Natalie! Maybe it would help if I ended up over here more often (forgive me? I’m trying to get back into the “swing of things”).

Where is this spider post? I’m going to find it right now because I don’t remember seeing it and I know I would remember THAT one… Okay, I’m off.

PS- just so you know, even if I don’t comment, I AM over here reading. Because I love you, hot stuff!

PPS- you should start some sort of bloghop thing with this. How totally creative. I was hooked the last time you did it ;)

Holly August 27, 2010 at 1:19 pm

Just found your blog and from the sounds of it, I should go back in time and read some of those posts that inspired such great comments!

I just went through multiple comments about the reader willing to have Craig’s babies, but decided it was best not to share them with the world.

You’re welcome.

Motpg August 27, 2010 at 2:39 pm

This is hilarious you should make it a regular thing! Now I have to find out what the head on a stick was all about because I seemed to have missed that one!

Reply

Lisa August 27, 2010 at 3:37 pm

Reading this post is kinda like a bunnch of bloggers in a circle playing telephone :) And you should have Craig do a guest post for his fans.

Reply

Kate August 27, 2010 at 5:19 pm

I love the last one “I would totally have his babies!” haha cracks me up!

Courtney August 27, 2010 at 6:29 pm

This is too funny! I can’t imagine the work it took to piece it all together.

Love this! So cute! I think you were right to have Craig’s babies, and to beat these other chics to the punch! lol

This is great b/c you have fun with it, it’s creative, it calls out your awesome commenters and everyone is in the spotlight.

Great idea.

You are all so creative.

I always get tangled up with rules and sit there with my fingers hanging in the air over the keys, going ‘duh.”

Great idea for young, nimble minds who have all their synapses still intact. (-:

You got any games for old farts?
