Just to affirm you...

I was thinking about my blog and blogging the other day, and it occurred to me that many of you comment on mine, but I so rarely comment on yours. You might think I am not reading them. But I am. OR AM I? No, ok, I really am. I often don't comment because a lot of what comes out of my mouth is what the so-called "liberal media" deems "toilet humor" and "violently offensive" and "downright upsetting" and "in Portuguese".

So I say all that to say this - I read your blogs, I very much enjoy your blogs, I just pick and choose where to express my opinion/love of fart jokes, so that you can be spared my generally mundane thoughts on the matter. I'm not totally self-absorbed. Just the other day, I held the door for someone*. Honest.

When I click on your name to see if you have a blog, I don't see anything listed - what's the URL for your blog? Once I know, I will visit upon you the wonders of my comments. Maybe.

geoff, the let-me-protect-you-from-my-offensive-self is such a cop-out. if you don't like to leave comments, you just don't like to leave comments....

eureka! i've got it! you could correct my atrocious and *highly offensive* spelling errors! THAT would compel (sp?) you to comment fairly often, and you wouldn't even have to swear.

Not a damn chance, Jo ;).

To be honest, it's more just the fact that when I go to leave a comment, I just think "Eh, that's something everyone could've already figured out."

Honestly, I comment on blogs the same way I do in real life - I keep quiet most of the time, make a joke when I see an opening, and only really say something useful when I'm passionate about something or really think I have an insight that might not be the immediate conclusion. That's why I made this post - to let everyone know that I'm taking it all in, even if I'm quiet most of the time.

I'm SURE you don't even read mine.

Since I haven't been posting much on my own blog, I don't mind the absense of comments from you. But once I get going and start up the movie/gaming related posts I expect some comments. And you can use all the toilet humor you want. Can't be any worse than what I hear at work or from my friends.

We regulate any stealin of his propertry and we're damn good too.
But you can't be any geek off the street.
You gotta be handy with the steal if you know what I mean to earn your keep."



How was that for a thoughtful and insightful comment.

what's with all you people in the holy roller's choir using language? I'm surprised.

steph,
my guess is that they do it for the shock value because they can't be a soccar mom or drive a mini van.

Blogger S.I. said...

Maybe I should strip for shock value. Geez!

Blogger Hooper said...

For the first time on my blog, I am stunned to speechlessness. Well, not really, but I don't have an answer to "strip for shock value". That's worth some points. See prior posts if you are unfamiliar with the points system.

Jo, you spelled soccer wrong. <3's for mention of the minivan, though. Someday, I'ma trick one out and cruise. It'll be like "Hey, ladies, check out my dual side-sliding doors, passenger side airbags, rearview camera and ABS. Whoa."

Blogger Hooper said...

Bubar! I totally forgot to reply to your post, because at first I didn't know who you were, and then because I am forgetful. So, hello!

10:49 p.m.  
Blogger Jo said...

yeah, those dual-side sliding doors really turn a gal's head, let me tell you. i mean, when i see a man in a mini-van i do a double-take. right ladies?

Blogger Kirk said...

Jo you are sooooooo right. When I see aman stick his head out of the door of a minivan my heart just begins to go pitter patter. For future reference Hooper if she was really hot you should have pushed someone else into her and knocked her down. Then you could swoop in and rescue her. I know this is late but my dream job would be "giraffe enema administrator" You could literally get lost in that job.

What amazes me is that you just posted some random, short post all about not commenting and that you get like 20 comments. You could say anything - or nothing - and get at least 20 comments. What gives?

Blogger Hooper said...

Well, in all fairness, like half of them are mine.

Whitey brings up a good point, though, folks - I'm not a nice person (in fact, I'm kind of a jerk), and really, I don't deserve the attention. So why do you insist on feeding it to me? FOOLS!

7:00 p.m.  
Blogger Sween said...

Ditto. (To what Whitey said).
