LOOK AT ME DAMN IT

Okay, two very cool things to share with you today:

First of all, The Onion’s AV Club gave me a really nice review yesterday, and included me in a list of fantastic books to read on the toilet. Plus they almost made me sound smart, so clearly they earn their money over there.

Also, my friends at Urlesque posted a video interview they did with me at ROFL Con last month, where I talk about some of my favorite Regretsy pieces ever.

Click on images for the stories.

    Sounds like the world has as big of a Girl Crush on you as I do. Congratulations!

    Dammit! I read my copy of the book while sitting at my desk. To think of the wasted potential…

    I enjoyed both of those… :D

    When I read “Urlesque”, I could not help but remember that fish/squirrel thing–to bad there wasn’t a cameo. :lol:

    LeeLoo, yes, if April had her Multipass…

    (PS, I could not convince my family to name the new kitten “Leeloo Dallas Multipass” which made me sad. And seeing your posts every day made me dig out and rewatch “5th Element” last week -I’d forgotten how much I really liked that movie)

    Well it is better reading then a shampoo bottle, a toothpaste tube, shaving cream or a hairspray bottle.

    Don’t even deny it, in desperate times I know you all have read these, including the ingredients.

    I guess those furious letter-writing campaigns to your publisher didn’t work. And here I thought annoying internet cranks had so much power.
    Next thing they’ll be saying “what’s the Onion?”

    Dying to know what the button on that fab b/w checked coat says. I’d guess it doesn’t say ‘crab hammering dickbags’ but is no doubt just as plucky.

    And-waaaa-laaaa- now I know that I know more French poeple than I thought I knew.

    Hamoza – buttons I got at ROFL Con. – HK

    #4 Patty – I did, too.

    Looks like I will have to check out the other books on the list. The Regretsy one is the only one I have. And now I have a new place to display it.

    Reading the Regretsy book on the toilet can make you more regular – through osmosis it helps crap find an equalibrium

    I need to find a copy of “Roundabouts of Great Britain”. This would be the perfect anniversary gift for my husband. I can see it leaving it on his desk at the office and laughing at the engineers who hoo and haa over the designs.

    I’d also buy a Regretsy book, but I’m waiting for HK to come to Toronto so she can sign it.

    Come on HK, I’ve got your $17.99 right here!

    My bathroom books are currently Regretsy, The Amazing Mackerel Pudding Plan: Classic Diet Recipe Cards from the 1970s, The Big Book of Hell, and a great photo book about sideshow freaks I can’t remember the name of.

    Regretsy is most decidedly on the top of the heap.
