how "flattering"


Heather writes, "I work part-time as a bartender, so I am used to lascivious comments and the occasional marriage proposal. Monday night, I got this note. I shudder to think of what he was actually trying to compliment."

I love this blog, but it has it's downside. Whenever I write anything, I'm constantly worried that it will end up on this blog. I've become scared of using most forms of punctuation. (I know. I have a serious paranoia problem.) I wonder what this guy would say if he knew his little note was being broadcast far and wide. Enjoy your five minutes of fame, buddy.

See, that is EXACTLY what I mean. Thank you for pointing that out. And I love how you are anonymous.

Emily Dickinson wrote this, too?

And somehow, I doubt the sort of person who writes this kind of note would much be bothered.

you know, DG, I generally don't include personal correspondence because it does seem kind of mean. In this case though, anybody who feels the need to let a bartender know what he thinks of her "butt" deserves the ridicule.
And if you think YOU'RE paranoid, imagine my life! I make a lot of grammar mistakes. But not quotation marks anymore.

Oh man. I also love this blog, but this one just about made me fall out of my chair laughing. And, yes, I also love the "stuff white people like" blog, as well as the "fail" blog. But yours never fails to bring a smile. Nice work...and thanks!
