Tupperware, Mothballs, and Other Stuff

so it appears to be a phenomenon in the blog world that the more random and non-meaningful your post is, the more comments you get- please disregard this, josh, as this has completely nothing to do with your last randomly provactive post.

anysara once told me that she would write something she was really proud of and nobody would respond, but if she put a photo of her dog, she would get like 85 comments. another friend resorts to periodic posts about playboy magazine (guess that's like my porn posts, huh?). but everyone seems to agree that when you talk about nothing, lots of people are exceedingly interested.

so, i just wanted to let you all know that i really enjoy tupperware. not just the name brand stuff, but also the rubbermaid, the serving savers, the glad and ziploc brands- pretty much any storage container that is not orange.

a few weeks ago i scattered mothballs near my shed to ward off possums. they look like large white sweet tarts. no, not the possums.

i like other stuff too.

have a greay day!

    awwwwwwwwwwwww, chick- you really know how to rain on my parade...

    plastictupperwarequeen- wow! do you really exist? did you see the pbs documentary about tupperware? it was one of my favorites ever!! and, just so you know, orange is the color of evil. it makes me want to vomit. except for orange juice, or oranges, or carrots, or yams,or other things that exist in their natural state- they are excused for their orangeness...
    welcome to the blog!!

    rebel- hey- i see you are now blue, so everyone who reads your comments can click on you and go to your new blog- groooooooooooovy! but please, really stay away from the cucumbers...

    josh- no comments? okay, you're officially a slacker...

    Alright, Ms. Jealous. Yes, I'm slacking. But I'm also waiting for the cucumber post. In the meantime, off to RWAC's blog to see what she has to say about cucumbers.

    Sorry, I just found out that Plastic Tupperware Queen is not BlogBrit. Whoa.

    Assuming that I'm the friend that resorts to periodic posts about Playboy to get comments, you've got me all wrong. In fact, the first post (out of two) that I wrote about Playboy generated a whopping 0 comments.

    I don't write anything to get comments. I have no idea what will or won't generate them. I wish I had the secret of what generates comments, links, hits, visitors, etc.

    Granted our blogs are very different. Mine is intentionally "meaningless." Ultimately, I believe the readers decide what is meaningful to them and prompts them to comment. But 99% of blog readers are passive and won't comment, no matter what you write.


    Comments are nice, but there's only one that I want to get:

    D, I think you're a genius. I want to offer you a publishing deal. And I have Jessica Alba's home phone number.

    So keep doing what you're doing. Those who dig it will bring others. Those who don't will go away.

    Dance like no one is watching. Blog like no one is reading.

    josh- the only things i can ever remeber girls saying about cucumbers are neither flattering to men, nor worth repeating. and, for the record, blogbrit is much more the ziploc bag type...

    d- i think you're a genius. i wish i could offer you a publishing deal. and you are waaaaaaaaay too good for jessica alba. whoever she is...
