TELL IT LIKE IT IS TUESDAY

I guess it is my turn to tell it like it is.

It has been brought to my attention that some people don't think I should offer this feature on my blog.
First of all when I decided to start this once a week feature on my blog my intention was to give anyone who has some pent up frustration a way to just get it off their chest without any backlash or extra drama.

 If this feature bothers you then I would say to you:

 "If you don't like what you see on my blog then you are invited to not come back, it's as simple as that." 

You see, that is the beauty of blogging. You can pick and choose blogs that you enjoy and if you find something offensive then you just move on. If I lose followers because of this weekly feature then so be it, I can't make everyone happy all of the time and I am sure there will be people who disagree with me on this issue.
 SO BE IT!

 I am not forcing or encouraging anyone to be mean spirited and my intention is NOT to let this become a forum for ongoing personal issues between two parties.  I preview all comments and if I find something that is inappropriate then I just don't post it.  Let's just not make this out to be more than what it is people!

With that being said, whatch got on your mind?  Let's hear all about it.

YOU SAY SODA, I SAY POP

Apparently I created a controversy with one of my answers to the Meet Me On Monday post.

The question was:

Coke or Pepsi?

I answered that I don't drink lots of "pop" but I do kinda like drinking Dr. Pepper if I drink any at all.

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeelllllll,

 evidently people have their own way of referring to their soft drinks. I got a kick out of this, apparently I live a very sheltered life here in the Pacific Northwest.

I got all kinds of examples of how it is referred to depending on what part of the country you are from.

So what do you call
 'CARBONATED BEVERAGES'
 where you come from?

What Were They Thinking?

So, I titled this post, "What Were They Thinking?" because, well, I would like to know;

WHAT. WERE. THEY. THINKING?What part of pumping up their lips do they think makes them attractive?

I just don't get it.

Pamela Anderson:

Did you ever hear of aging gracefully?

Evidently not!

Dolly Parton:

It is not necessary to pump up your lips to match your...

ummmm...you know what's.  You are truly a beautiful woman with a wonderful heart.  Please quit  trying to be "Barbie".

Lisa, Lisa, Lisa!
You look like you had a bee sting reaction on your upper lip.  Honey (no pun intended, or maybe intended) please leave the bee keeping to the professionals.

Goldie Hawn

Those look like they were imported from your behind. 

 SO NOT CUTE!

Wha?????

Megan Fox, what part of adorable is this? You look like rubber tires with lipstick.

And Marie, sweetie I love you to pieces...but I must be brutally honest. Those ain't the lips you were born with. I know you have a Las Vegas act and all, but  REALLY? Is that pump job necessary?

Dear Ms. Griffith,
 you must ask for a refund for that procedure.
It's all wrong for you.
Embrace you own beauty and let nature have a chance.

What about you, do you think the whole

'PUMP UP THE LIPS'

trend is a little out of hand?

A Little Rant

OK, I have a little something that has been bothering me that I NEED to address

Here it is:

I spend a lot of time and energy posting about different things but mostly posting about crafty projects that I have done. This rant does not apply to my faithful commenter's (and I love you all so much)...But this is to all of those bloggers who host bloggy linky parties.

A comment back to us who link up with you would be appreciated, after all we post a link back to your blog which drives other readers to your blog with the potential for you gaining more followers. Now I realize that linking up to your parties also drives readers to our blogs, and that is wonderful, so thank you. I also realize that you may get as many as 200 bloggers, or more, linking to your blog party and commenting back to each one could be very time consuming but please try to comment back whenever possible.

Now, for all of you who link back to our blogs from linky parties if you could just please leave some sort of comment it would be soooooo appreciated. Who doesn't like to get comments? It gets frustrating when you see that 40 or more people have checked out our posts and not ONE person leaves a comment. Even if you have a critique (and please be nice) we appreciate that too. Feedback is a good thing, it lets us know if what we present out into blogland is even worth our time doing it.

PLEASE DO NOT TAKE OFFENSE IF YOU ARE SOMEONE WHO COMMENTS REGULARLY ON THESE POSTS, BUT YOU ARE THE MINORITY.

I would love to hear your comments on this subject.

THANK YOU IN ADVANCE.

(Ok, now I feel better)
