Clairifying some things.

May 7th, 2008 | by TJ |

So, every time I have tried to make an amusing post lately, it has come out all backwards and wrong and everyone gets all serious and my e-mail blows up with people having stern words with me, and I think I better just clear all the air and stuff.

1. I know, I KNOW my mother saves this stuff because she’s a mother and I’m her kid and it’s what mothers do. And I’m not a total ingrate, I do appreciate my mother. And I call her regularly. And I remember her birthday and Mother’s Day and such. And I totally appreciate the sentiment behind saving my childhood stuff. I do still think 16 years is too long to hang on to a rodent skeleton, especially when her reasoning is that she didn’t want to hurt my feelings. Don’t worry though. I am nice to my mother. I promise. I PROMISE.

2. I am not telling you how I eat my dinosaur sandwiches. A girl has to have some secrets, stop prying into my private life!!

3. I didn’t pick any of them. I didn’t go.

4. The final point on the judgey posts: If normal, average, every day people did not judge by such “shallow” things every single day, all the time, whether they intend to or not, but just as a natural part of their day to day existence, I would not have to wear lady-suits to job interviews.

    Dear Icky,

    4)I being the perfect person that I am never judge anyone. I accept their numerous faults and problems without judging at all. I know this because I’m not a paladin and I don’t have that ability.

    2) Dinosaur sandwiches? This sounds fake.

    1) Bad Icky! Moms are for hugs not for skeletons!

    3) Not going doesn’t mean you shouldn’t pick!

    There you go Icky, now everything is explained and you can cheerfully go on with your day.

    Thank you,
    Teh m3.

    If they’ve been your reader for any length of time they should realize your intent is a humorous one most of the time. And I agree keeping a rodent skeleton that long is kind of silly especially when the person who made it says you don’t mind if they get rid of it.

    1) Your mother paid us to say these things so that you’ll move home out of guild.

    2) I think that your stance on this is unfailr since we already know where you put your condiments, a far more personal decision!

    3) Pre-Vronak, no comment.

    4) Ooh, you’re interviewing?

    lol, that should be ‘out of guilt’, not ‘out of guild’

    Noooo I am not interviewing. It was just a general statement.

    General Statments order around other statments…this makes them important and FACT.

    Um, I thought keeping the rodent skeleton and owl dung was kind of icky. People complained about that?

    I bet you bite the dino’s head off first.

    And yes we all judge. If people can’t see it, there is no point in arguing with them. No one is perfect. Well, except Dammerung, apparently.

    Admit it, you streaked the party didn’t you?
    I won’t judge you by the fact that you went to a corporate party naked, I swear…it could have gone badly though, what if the skelator looking skinny girl from accounts payable decided she would too…nobody likes an 18 (I know, 16, I’m not going to provide fodder for pedophiles) yr old skeleton drawing attention to itself…good thing that dinosaur rumbled through the party and your streaking went unnoticed…

    I’m so confused… TJ streaked at the party? Is that why she’s interviewing?

    No she’s interviewing cause she is judgy she streaked to try and get her mom to throw away the skelly and dinosaur sammichs are so possible haven’t you seen Jurassic Park.

    1. Show your mother you love her, send her owl vomit for mother’s day!

    2. Everybody knows that you put your condiments on the dinosaur-shaped meat, not the dinosaur-shaped bread!

    3. Based upon your handcuff bracelet, you may like some of the accessories in the pages of notcoture.com

    4. I disagree and agree with your point here, but it all depends upon the work you do, and the environment you’re in. I would not judge you for wearing a bikini to an interview, but I wouldn’t hire you for a corporate job as you display a lack of understanding that your attire should not draw attention from your work… unless your work involves wearing a bikini. :P

    If there is one thing I do not judge, it’s your posts :-). I keep coming here for my daily entertainment, and just accept your posts as they are. There ‘s no deeper meaning (mostly), it’s just like watching this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WsfiD78Cy0s), just sit back and enjoy. And I certainly wouldn’t come back day after day if I weren’t having fun, so I’m not certainly not complaining…. besides, the dino thingy definitely looked spongy to me, never would have thought it to be a sandwich
    And I think Doom had to go because of a brand new NARUTO episode!!!

    We talk about judging… Ms. DONT GIVE ME THAT TONE OF FACE! ;-)
    .
    Judging is what it is… As long as you have a point of reference and are informed enough to have a judgement/opinion…..
    .
    My pet peeve is people who don’t have kids making comments about people who have kids. ” IE: I can’t believe they let them run around like that” “I wouldn’t feed MY kid that” or “control your kids”… WAH…!
    .
    Up yours! :D
