Emily has been whining to Blogger that we have been copying her posts and I had to edit out her drivel this morning. So, going forward, instead of wasting time copying her posts, I'll just give a summary of what she said, and you can read her shit through a feed if you still don't want her to get a click. The link for the feed to the comments is listed at the top too so you can repeatedly check to see what the Stunned One has to say without contributing to her Neglect Fund.
Yesterday I was actually debating whether to continue this blog or not, but now that the Snippy Fundy has whined to Blogger yet again, I am most definitely continuing. *Evil Laugh*
So today is about the contest she had to redesign the Room of Horrors aka the Boys' Room.
She was completely overwhelmed with the responses she got when she asked for submissions to redo the Room of Horror. She got 40 entries, that's official entries mind you, not entries through comments because those don't count dammit, follow the rules. The final entry rolled in around 4 this morning. People love Emily so much they stay up all night redesigning the Room of Horrors. She says it was very difficult to get it down to just the top 5 entries (I'm betting all five are hers) She's taking a lesson in GRATEfulness, and expressing how much she appreciated the effort and creativity.
The criteria she used to choose was based on whether or not it would work for her boys, whether or not she thought it could be done with a reasonable budget, how versatile it was, and how much she thought the boys would like it. I call Bullshit on this, becasue she doesn't care one bit how much her boys will like it, just give them some clean sheets and a mattress you lazy old sow. She says she truly hopes no one is offended by how she chose, or didn't choose their submission. But we know Emily and she doesn't give a shit if she offended or not.
She has posted the pictures of the suggestions. I am encouraging you to go and vote in the poll for one of the suggestions that actually allows for the boys to have a bed, looks like entry number one actaully allows for a bed off the floor. I'm sure they still won't be allowed a matress, but at least it's off the floor. This entry also gives Brad the Wonder Ecoli a prominent place watching over the boys. You can use the feed after you vote to check back if you want http://under1000permonth.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default and youcan check comments at http://under1000permonth.blogspot.com/feeds/comments/default
"I'm betting all 5 were hers"
ReplyDeleteI bet you're right.
And you can always do this in a "Person Without Pity" style blog. A summary is good enough for me.
Don't give up on this blog. You make me laugh every day. And I need to laugh. I agree - a summary is good enough for me, too.
ReplyDeleteI agree, the summary is fine for me. I read her posts in my reader anyway, so I come here to real the REAL comments that she would never let through!
ReplyDeleteAh, Under1000, please don't give up the blog. I agree that the "PWoP" idea is great. And if you get stuck or busy or just need a break from the crazy, let me know and I can help out.
ReplyDeleteObviously, since I'm a sad, lonely spinster, this has been a lifesaver. Especially since I went through a breakup because I only use my brilliance for evil. Playing around with this and being a raging bitch has been such a blessing to me! I purpose to encourage you to keep going! :)
Oh, I won't give up now, LOL No way. I'm too spiteful for that. I honestly thought about it, but her insistance on being a bitter, snippy bitch has reinspired me :)
ReplyDeleteWhat is a "people without pity" type blog?
I wonder how Emily will interact with lonely, barren spinsters when Dna becomes apastor? Or maybe their storefront Church of the Holy Gloodle will only allow married womens with a ton of children?
Dear Emily,
ReplyDeleteHow sad that the only goal you have in life is to be a wife and mother. I feel truly sorry for you, I really do. It must be so depressing to know that all you've accomplished in your 20 something years is to 1.) get married and 2.) reproduce children you can't afford.
I'm even more sad that you fail at being either.
Sincerely,
Someone with "half a brain" (that's still half a brain more than you, obviously.)
P.S. You probably shouldn't insult the wit of of your readers, because you're pretty lacking in that department also. You're not witty, funny, or even a decent human being. The only pedestal you have is the rubbermaid tote in your living room.
I sent her an idea, being careful not to offend the lemon-y one. Of course, it's not 1 of the 5 chosen. I used to be in product and development at Pottery Barn kuds. Of course, I know nothing about a REAL children's room! I should have suggested a room full of discarded ovens. Each child can have their own rack and the babies can sit on the burners, in crockpots. They can store their clothes in the microwave, as it it seems to be the next appliance to go.
ReplyDeleteI am waiting for her to do all her cooking outside, because all kitchen appliances are evil, except for her beloved Cassie the Crockpot.
ReplyDeleteBy the way Gizmola I am so jealous of you! Sweet wackadoodle Emily will answer your emails, she will not response to me after I called her out regarding her fixation on living like she lived in a third world country. Then I sent her links regarding Childhood Asthma and clutter, no response. So yes I am jealous. Keep up the good work for all of us.
Under1000 - PLEASE keep the blog going! I think summarizing her posts will work out fine. Most of us come here for the comments and hilarious parodies anyway.
ReplyDeleteGizmola - Any parodies the works today? I think the only thing me and The Snippy One will ever agree upon is that you definitely have talent!
I don't know if Gizmola has a parody planned for today or not, but I tried my hand at it, I just posted a Kevin the Pet Bacon Fat post. I even took a picture, LOL
ReplyDeletePlease never give this blog up....I look forward to reading it every day :) And she so deserves it.
ReplyDeleteWhy doesn't she get rid of the appliances and then use their space for more milk crates or a place to shove her kids?
ReplyDeleteUnder1000 - I think PWoP blog would be like TWoP but instead of recapping tv shows we recap Emily posts. That way she can stop crying to Blogger (and the FBI).
ReplyDeleteCountressrascal, she hasn't responded to any emails and I've stopped sending them because it's pointless. I'd rather talk to my wall.
I will do my best to work up a parody today. Work and rehearsal (am ADing a play) have sapped my strength this week. And it's only Tuesday!!
KEEP YOU BLOG GOING!!! I don't know why she thinks if she shuts this down someone wont start another one. EMILY HAVE YOU EVER HEARD OF FREEDOM OF SPEECH YOU DUMB BITCH???
ReplyDeleteAre we positive she doesn't get the clicks I want to make SURE before I use those links. I won't contribute to her neglect fund. Also you should make the links BIGGER so everyone can see them maybe even bold.
THANKS FOR YOUR BLOG :)
I, too, purpose to encourage you to keep this review site going. I admit to a strange Snippy Frugal Fundy fascination, but I refuse to give her a click.
ReplyDeleteFree Dna, those poor little boys, Brad, and Therese!
She'll have to kick one of the appliances to the curb once she breeds #4. The footprint of the microwave is the PERFECT size for a nice cat crate for the next baby.
ReplyDeleteOh no, please don't give it up, I NEED my daily laugh. :) I nearly wet my pants every day. Good work!
ReplyDeleteblog blog blog... please!
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised each entry includes a bed/bunk of some sort. THought she was opposed to beds of any kind.
ReplyDeleteI want someone to ask her for a picture of the repaired bathroom light. I doubt thats really happened.
I'm also curious as to how the boys know the movie CARS. Perhaps they see that (and the ones Dan reviews-cough) on the computer. But are those free somewhere?
annie
Can you imagine the kind of crap the FBI gets handed by the general public every day? I'm just snickering at the idea of Emily sending in her junk and them thinking "Wtf?"
ReplyDeleteI work in an office where we receive tons of civilian coorespondance. The funnier ones we post on a wall in the lounge where only co-workers are allowed. One specifically that I remember was the mother of an applicant who chided my department for not hiring her son.
Anything from her would definitely get put in the center of the cork board.
While "feed" hits don't count towards Emily's blogher ad revenue...it IS possible to track feed hits. Who cares if it's not "giving her a click"? I do because that data can be shared with others and pad Emily's pockets in a roundabout way. Let's say for example Emily wants to review a book or offer a contest - she can approach someone to support her blog with statistics from her feed.
ReplyDeleteAccessing a blog through a feed might not provide direct income, but it does give her stats and numbers that she could turn into support/revenue.
I will NOT be reading her blog through a feed because I don't want to support this crazy bitch in any way, shape or form.
Think about it.
My bet is she will not be doing one bit to that closet she calls a bedroom.
ReplyDeleteWHY ?? has the landlord not done an inspection in that apartment? How can it be legal for the kids to be in a closet, laundry room what ever it is?
Haha...now she's noticing how strange it is that the spock-flock are all commenting about #3, yet #1 has all the votes. Gee Emily...maybe it's because all the whackadoodles out there think like you and that's why they're voting for that bookshelf-cave-bed situation. I can picture the boys climbing all over those storage cubes and potentially hurting themselves. (Oh wait, I forgot about the boundaries...nevermind!) I don't know why I bothered looking over there today. She's just gonna do what she wants and completely underwhelm us anyway.

Diss Emily all you like, I'm with you on that one but please don't knock all the SAHMs who stay at home and give up a shit load to do so!
Anon 6:42:
ReplyDeleteI didn't mean to imply that SAHM's didn't do anything. I hope I didn't offend you.
Emily made a comment to Gizmola on her blog that she felt sorry for her because she has no husband or children and how horrible that must be.
Being married and having children can certainly be a very rewarding experience, and it should be, but there is more to women then their ability to have children and be married. And by Emily's comment, that is exactly what she was implying, that the only thing women really have to live for is getting married and having children.
My comment really didn't have anything to do with SAHM's and what they do on a daily basis. It's more about women and how they choose to define themselves....and, as Emily does, think others should define themselves in the same manner.
I'm surprised she hasn't just lined up a bunch of rubbermaid totes, thrown a pile o' blankets or straw tick on top, and called it good! She is looney tunes!
ReplyDeleteAnon 6:42pm - I really don't think Meg was commenting on all SAHMs. Only Emily, who thinks being a SAHM consists of blogging, ignoring her sick child, making gloodles and being snippy. If you look at other SAHM blogs they are full of yummy food pictures, pretty pictures of kids, talk about what makes them happy, how fulfilled they are, how it's hard work - but you can see the effort they put into being a SAHM. With Emily, you don't see the effort because she doesn't seem to make any effort to take care of her family in a meaningful way - just to blog and feed them swill. If I had kids I'd aspire to be a SAHM like Tracy of Unless the Lord... or Anna from Domestic Felicity. Never Emily. I don't consider her representative of SAHMs, only of tinfoil hat wearing freakazoids with a crockpot fetish and a whey addiction.
ReplyDeleteNo prob Meg, I was having a sensitive 'Im *only* a SAHM moment!! [I was Anon 6.42pm!-now I'll be Anon something else!]
ReplyDeleteWhen is the fruitloop going to tell us which option won the room of horror contest?
ReplyDeletewho is Therese?
ReplyDeleteTherese is the kefir.
