This morning I wrote a post for the Chronicle about Wolverine blow-jobs and then right after that I twittered:
And then suddenly eleventy billion people twittered back “WOLVERINES!!!!!” And it was awesome. So awesome, in fact, that within an hour “WOLVERINES!” had become a top trend on twitter and people were vowing to shout it on the subway. Then Victor woke up and was all “This house looks like shit. What have you been doing all morning?” and I’m all “I’ve orchestrated a mass Red Dawn awakening before most of America has had coffee, that’s-what-I’ve-been-doing“. Then he gave me this look of disgust and was all “I don’t get it” and I’m all “That’s why it’s so funny. No one gets it. It’s like when you’re at the grocery store and you suddenly yell out ‘SOYLENT GREEN IS PEOPLE!’ and everyone stops and looks at you weird but then one person over in the cereal aisle starts laughing and yells back “KHAAAAAAN!” and then you laugh and go back to shopping. That’s what life is all about.” And Victor’s all “Yeah. I just don’t think it’s funny” and I’m all “YOU DON’T THINK THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE AROUND THE WORLD RANDOMLY SCREAMING ‘WOLVERINES!’ IS FUNNY?!” Then I thought about leaving him. Then Hailey started screaming “WOLFAREEMS!” and I’m like ”Even four year olds think this shit is funny“. Then we went to this sandwich shop for lunch where you write down your name and order and then they call out your name when it’s ready so I filled mine out and gave it to Victor so he could pay for it.
Then the sandwich guy was all “Uh…I’ve got a BLT here. Uh…wolverines?” and then I laughed so hard coke shot out of my nose. And Victor was all “What is wrong with you?” And I’m all “WOLVERINES!!!” It was awesome. Then we went back home and Victor left to do some work but like 10 seconds later he stepped back inside and screamed “WOOOOOLVERIIIIIINES!!!!!” Like, so hard he was panting afterward. And I’m all “Exactly.” And that’s how Red Dawn saved my marriage.
Comment of the day: Speaking of Wolverine blowjobs, here is how I got introduced to the concept of furries: this friend of mine in college told me that he (my friend) was e-chatting with some dude about some innocuous, non-furry-sex thing and then said dude typed something completely insane and filthy and perverted and then followed up with “Oh, sorry, I’m getting a blowjob from a raccoon in the other chat window.” And my friend said (to me) “And the weirdest thing is that raccoons don’t even have saliva, so why would you even want a blowjob from a raccoon?” That was more than 15 years ago, and every time I see a raccoon I still think of this. Every. Time. ~ jfruh

BethBot’s last blog post..How Drinking + Recycling = Happy Kids
Wolverines forever!
Yay for your husband getting ti at last, or trying to…I actually yelled “WOLVERINES!” in the middle of the quad at my college. It was epic.
LOL glad to see you are having a great day
You are sure easy to please — or maybe you are just easy? I haven’t read any blogs about you being easy though and since you blog everything surely it means you are not easy, just easy to please.
It’s probably FAR too cliche to do this right now, but there’s no other comment even worth putting…
WOLVE-FRICKIN-RINESSSSSSS!!!

Rock on Sister! Although I think that I will just shout “WOLFAREEMS” because it is cuter. Of course people will probably think that I am slow or something and then jsut disregard me anyway.
OMG I laughed so hard I cried
When are you running for president? And can I be your running mate?
I totally yelled Wolverines! at the park today, and then one kid yelled it back and that’s all it took to get a park full of kids running around yelling WOLVERINES! I’m going to try it with “MOIST” tomorrow…
Amy Rossi’s last blog post..Half-Assed Vegetarian
God you crack me up….
WOLVERINES!!!
That felt good.
Your husband needs to find you as amusing as we all do. Immediately. Kudos to him for finally submitting to the epic wolverine cult though.
OMG, I missed the Red Dawn awakening!!! Damn me and my sleep needing ways. That is hi-frickin-larious!
Oh my god. This shit IS funny.

I so get you.
Wolverines.
Nena’s last blog post..Haiku
Oh my GOD, dude. I’d scream “WOLVERINES!!” right now too, but I am busy laughing too damn hard to articulate anything. Which means I’m probably going to pass out. Which actually works out fairly nicely, because then someone can revive me by screaming, “WOLVERINES!!!” in my face.
KHAAAAAAN!
juliejulie’s last blog post..Six year Old Chubby Girl Fashion Mishap
Okay. That’s it. Dump the current book project and get to work on your NEW book: Zombies, Xanax and WOLVERINES!!!, The Bloggess’ Guide to a Happy Marriage (Or At Least Not Killing Your Husband, Victor, Which Might Be Fun Anyway Just So You Could Enjoy the Irony of Seeing His Name Written in Blood Dripping from the Katana You Stole from His Office).
I’d buy it just for the Soylent Green reference.
If I hear anyone yell Wolverines tonight at work, I will howl.
I would love to be a fly on the wall, er, skull, of your odd little brain. I bet it’s interesting as hell in there.
Yer husband’s pretty awesome.
Speaking of Wolverine blowjobs, here is how I got introduced to the concept of furries: this friend of mine in college told me that he (my friend) was e-chatting with some dude about some innocuous, non-furry-sex thing and then said dude typed something completely insane and filthy and perverted and then followed up with “Oh, sorry, I’m getting a blowjob from a raccoon in the other chat window.” And my friend said (to me) “And the weirdest thing is that raccoons don’t even have saliva, so why would you even want a blowjob from a raccoon?”
That was more than 15 years ago, and every time I see a raccoon I still think of this. Every. Time.
my husband and I will never leave each other because no one else gets us. We could hate each others guts..but we need each other to nod or laugh at our lame assness
Ya know, I did the Soylent Green Is People thing the other day at work, and nobody got it. Nobody. And I work exclusively with people who have better relationships with their TVs than they do with other people. I think I need a new job. Could someone tell me which companies have people shouting “Wolverines” these days?
a’s last blog post..
Haha.
You know that “soylent green” thing in grocery store is true. It’s all true.
KHAAAAAAAAANNNNNN!!!

And it all started with the thought of giving a toy a blow job….
I think this is how the women’s movement started.

WOLVERINES!!!!!!!
I believe this is what Encyclopedia Dramaticat would call “winning at Internet.” Just just won The Internets.
And we’re going at the ballet tonight, so I’m TOTALLY going to call up and reserve two tickets under “Wolverines” at will-call. I can’t pass up a chance to yell “WOLVERINES!” in the lobby at the Wortham.

MButterfly’s last blog post..New from Upstage Left: Blogger of the Weekend
its too late to save my marriage, but i yelled out wolverines just for the heck of it. i wish i had known sooner, cause i was at a church breakfast this am, and yelling out WOLVERINES!!!!!!!! would definitely have gotten some attention…
and the soylent green ref…priceless!! i said that at work a couple of weeks ago and everyone looked at me like i had two heads.
ne hows…as usual, i lmao. appreciate you, jen. my day is sunnier when you post.
This was awesome. I yelled wolverines. The kids didn’t get it, but my husband will when he gets home. He’s also a soylent green fan.
As for the sandwich shop? Brilliant. May I suggest that you sign your name Wolverines in the signature box when you charge something next? Heh
Scout’s Honor’s last blog post..Heavy Topics For 1st Graders
I’m going out later, and I’m going to get on 1st Av (that’s the main road here in ol’ Cedar Rapis) roll down the window and scream “Wolfareems!!!” as loud as I possibly can. Loud enough to test my bladder’s holding threshold.
CommentLuv hates me and won’t put my last post. Commie bastard.
Awesome. I am so going to answer the phone at work like that. Wolverines!!!

I’m bringing Wolverines to Western KY, baby. It’s happening.
And this is why the Internet is quite possibly the greatest thing ever.
Erik’s last blog post..I mean it this time!
I suddenly have the urge to print up a bunch of Soylent Green labels and put them on random products at the grocery store. Except now I’ve posted that here so if I did it, I’d be so busted. But maybe this’ll inspire someone else…
I always put Mrs. Wonderful or Mrs. President on the name line.

I am at a loss for words. Well, not really. I just stuck my head outside and yelled Wolverines. Amazingly enough, with all that is going on, I feel much better.

Eddie Lynn’s last blog post..John Mayer – The Sell Out
My husband looked at me all crazy when I brought home Red Dawn last year. Awesome to know I am in good company. Alas, I was woefully unaware of Soylent Green, which I have now added to our movie queue (it took me like 5 minutes to spell that right).
Judy’s last blog post..Judy Needs Google
THIS! IS! SPARTA! Oh, wait…Damn, I’m always one step behind the trends.
1) Which Wich is awesome.
2) I think that wolverines are even more hilarious now that I read this post.
3) WOLVERINESSSSS
Melanie’s last blog post..sounds cool though
I think I’ve lost the ability to talk. I thought about yelling “death to smoochy!” next time I’m in a crowded area, then I blacked out. I think the awesomeness was too much for my simple brain to handle…
…or the unseasonably warm weather threw me off. Seriously, it’s a bit warm today for some reason.
C.B.Jones’s last blog post..Unfair censorship rears it’s easily offended head.
YOu got a BLT on white bread??
That’s just wrong!
Oh, and wolverines exclamation point and stuff.
I went out side and yelled wolverine, but it now just makes me part of the neighborhood. Like the guy across the street that stabbed himself 7 times, or the robin egg blue house where the guy stole the propane tanks that heat the icehouse and when the cops came to get him, they found out his son was making and selling meth out of the basement.
I’m obviously not spending enough time on the internet, otherwise I would have heard about the Wolverines! revolution before now. I’d go yell it out the front door but I’m afraid someone would shout back, “Oh, Wolverines! is so passe. We’re all about making self-portraits out of condiments now…”.
Lynn (Walking With Scissors)’s last blog post..25 Random Things
I went on a walk with my boyfriend and dogs and shouted WOLVERINES at a couple that was walking by but they didn’t look up so I think that they were either ignoring me (BASTARDS) or they think that I was yelling at my dog named Wolverine (which would be AWESOME… but I don’t think either of them will answer to it… I’ll try, though, for you). Then one of my dogs was eating goose poop so I yelled at her and then I yelled wolverines so that she would know that all is cool and I don’t hate her (wolverines is our new “I love you”). Then we walked up a hill and turned to a lake with a bunch of ducks and shit and my boyfriend and I both held hands and screamed WOLVERINES! The ducks didn’t give a shit… I don’t think they speak English… damn migrant birds. So, all in all, you have completely changed the course of my day as I woke up with little-to-no plans involving shouting wolverines… good day.
Ally B’s last blog post..Lumpy McGee is NOT Gwen Stefani
I am so giving “wolverines!” as my name at Panera when we go for breakfast tomorrow! And when we go out for dinner or any thing else for the next few weeks, until I grow tired of that as well.
michelle’s last blog post..Slobber, Flying Socks, Lasts and Heavy Kids.
If I wasn’t having a sleepover at my house with Laura and Laurie tonight that I totally wish you were here for, I would rent Red Dawn tonight. Oh maybe I will anyway, while Laura is finishing reading Twilight!
I hate wolverines, like with a passion, because I live in Buckeye country and that’s just what we do. But, I just ordered pizza and gave the name “Wolverines” and hung up before realizing they would totally spit on my pizza, because it’s a pizza place IN BUCKEYE COUNTRY, so then I had to call back and say, “I’m sending in my 10 year old to pick up that pizza and wolverines are her school mascot (lie), so please don’t hock on her pineapple pizza.

This may be my most favorite post of yours. Ever.
Ahahaha! I love it. I feel the need to leave the house to freak people out now. WOLVERINES!
Man, if I could just get people in Orlando to do stuff like that…it would be great…but people here have very little personality.
Alexis’s last blog post..Go Ahead and Listen
I didn’t know what to write that could possibly be an appropriate response to Wolverines! But then, as I sat here and thought (as much as is possible while picturing Hugh Jackman naked), I realized this was comment #69. And *that* is enough for me.
Zoeyjane’s last blog post..On Juggling

I’m pretty sure that’s how you say “WOLVERINES!” in Spanish…or Russian…or maybe in Bizarro World language.
Just doing my part to support Red Dawn weekend in a multi-cultural kinda way.

Also, did you know that if you rearrange the letters in “WOLVERINES!” you can spell out
“WINOS REVEL!” ….
Wolverines is my safe word.
abby’s last blog post..I Worry About Maya (Disturbing Images Part 2)
Apparently I get to go and see a rheumatologist guy. And I am pretty sure you have seen one of those.
So in solidarity sister, when he gives me the big needle, I will scream Wolverines!
Your sandwich order was for a BLT on white bread? White bread? Really?
(Seriously . . . yay for Victor.)
Not only that, you went to a “Which ‘wich” when I’m pretty sure there was a Potbelly next door. I’m not sure how many “Which ‘wiches” there are in this town, but Potbelly is vastly superior. In fact in case you were wondering, regarding sandwich chains in Houston:
1. Jimmy Johns
2. Earl of Sandwich
3. Brown Bag Deli
4. Potbelly
5. Central Market
You’re welcome.
I think that “how would you like your wich worked?” sounds incredibly dirty.
I’m so making this happen tonight. My fiance’s band has a show tonight, so there will be plenty of room for sporadic “wolverines” moments. If I’m lucky we’ll get all of downtown hooked.
I asked DD (turning 4 this month) and she said that everyone yelling wolverines at one time would be “craziness.” And she then said “it would be funny” and told me “I have a bag. It’s like a bag and I can put stuff in it.”
BTW, I had to spellcheck wolverines because the first time I spelled it wolvareens.

Uh, yeah, that should’ve been “Victor”. . .
I’m embarassed to say this entire post has gone way over my head. Clearly I’m the only person here who has no clue what the hell you’re talking about. I sense a Google search in my immediate future. I hate being so out of the loop.

The Cotton Wife’s last blog post..Time Marches On
This made me laugh so very hard!
I emailed it to may dad. All the email says is “Wolverines!!!”. I plan to call in a couple of minutes, yell “Wolverines!!!” at him (or my mom, whoever happens to pick up) and hang up.
They’ll think I’m crazy, but that’s nothing new. After all, where do you think I got it from?
This post made my day, until I got to the “WOLFAREEMS!” part. Then it made my life.
It must be wonderful to have such simple needs.
annie’s last blog post..Which Superhero are You?

I think it’s hilarious. My husband would SO not. And wouldn’t try it out either like Victor did.

I screamed WOLVERINES! And neither my husband or daughter(16) even turned to look at me..I mean come on…I was IN the same room!
I no longer have any shock value…that’s how fucked up they think I am, like it’s totally normal for me to just scream random shit for no reason….

One time, when I was a little kid, my dad rented Nightmare on Elm Street and I was way too little to watch it and be all, I’m badass, I can totally sleep tonight.
Well he had rented Red Dawn too, so I stayed up and watched Red Dawn and then I totally forgot about Freddy, right?
But I was scared shitless of Russians for the rest of my fucking life.
And I think Russia has tons and I mean tons of Wolverines! The sexiest X-Men.
The End.
Fucking Russians.

Now we are mortal enemies but you are more powerful than me.
But someday I’ll turn to the dark side and you’ll regret never knowing who I was.
Yeah. Take that!
Betsey’s last blog post..Updated: Me Or Dooce, You Choose…
I just changed my Facebook status to WOLVERINES!!!!!
Tom suddenly no longer thinks I’m funny either. And, like you, I was pretty sure I’d have to leave him, because I’m hilarious, including my posts about anarchists and SWAT teams converging on my house due to the research I’m doing for the book, AND my “lighthearted” take on Facebook.
But I totally get the Wolverines reference, and I’m pissed I wasn’t home yesterday to get it, because we went to a casino, and I absolutely would have yelled WOLVERINES in the casino and given about 415 old people with rolling oxygen containers heart attacks, which wouldn’t really have been funny, except it would. Come to think of it, an ambulance was rolling up to the hotel entrance as we left, so maybe someone had mobile Twitter and saw your call to action.
I always miss all the fun.

I read this to my mom and brother yesterday because I thought it was hilarious, but they just stared at me blankly. I think this just shows that the internet (and the bloggess) understand me better than my own family.

But I think it’s kind of racist towards the other wild dogs. Like Coyotes. How do you think they feel about all of this?
Georgette’s last blog post..Let’s be honest here.
That post brought tears to my eyes and it made me so happy I think it should be made into a movie-of-the-week.
When you scream “wolverines” in Walmart, you should totally make sure that you don’t do it too close to the greeter. They are usually old, handicapped, or mentally challenged. It would scare them A LOT if you did that. But that’s just a guess…’cause I’d seem pretty thoughtless otherwise.

curiouslyrandom’s last blog post..so tired
Places I have screamed “Wolverines” in the past 24 hours or so:
-Wal-mart
-Movie theatre
-Parking lots
-Dairy Queen
…except, I keep getting confused and starting with “WEREWOOOOOLVES!” then remembering that I’m an idiot and I have to retract that and go, “WOLVERINNNNNEEEESSS, I MEAN!”
That right there is what marriage is all about – you might not always get the other person’s thing, but you should at least try to support it.
Can I assume, too, that you have a thing for Hugh Jackman?
kittenpie’s last blog post..Funny Bun-ny
Holy crap. I was going to start a facebook page for Wolverines and post the link to this. But there are like a zillion Wolverines fan groups already. And some of them are a little scary…

Ohh we have that same sandwich shop. I should totally take advantage of being able to write in whatever name I want there.
Also, I just got Chipotle for lunch and I thought of you. Is that sweet or creepy??

Bummer. If only I had read this before I took my stress test today. Imagine screaming “Wolverine” in the middle of a group of doctors and nurses while they have you hooked up to machines.
Timing is everything.
Ps I’m asking you because you are the authority here.
Can you keister stash wolverines to sneak them into prison?

What is wrong with you? I want to e-mail this post to my teenage daughter, who by the bye totally likes to shout random crap and you have no little e-mail this shit button. Ugh, Jenny! You disappoint me on soo many levels sometimes….
I agree with the poster above that Wolfareems is even better, and I think the person who thought to shout it at a bunch of kids at a playground was a stroke of genius in getting this virus spread fast.
After some kid at my son’s daycare called someone a pancake, he spent at least two years calling people pancakes for absolutely no reason.
I might start eating out more often, just for the opportunity to make other people say whatever strange thing I want them to.

OMG I laughed so hard I cried. At work. And people looked at me funny.
And I totally get the Soylent Green thing. More people should see that.

Stacy Quarty’s last blog post..Hard Truth Capicity
I was totally gonna yell out “WOLVERINES!!!” at work when I read this, but then I thought my albanian colleague might think there was some kind of Wolf attack imminent, so then I thought about yelling “Wolverines, which aren’t anything to do with wolves, even though they sound like they should be because of the name and all, but anyway there’s no attack or anything, and there’s nothing to be scared of, it’s just a random thing I shouted without thinking about it and for no reason other than I saw it on the internet.” but by the time I’d written it all out and rehearsed it a couple times in the bathroom, everyone else had gone home, the burglar alarms were all switched on and the doors locked.
Slippy

PS: Also, Help, I’m locked in the bathroom at work and everyone’s gone home and I really need the toilet.
PPS: It’s okay, I don’t need the toilet after all.
More information on raccoon saliva can be found on the internet. Specifically, information saying that they do, in fact, produce saliva.
I did not google anything about their talents for oral sex. For many, many reasons.
So, as I was saying, WOLVERINES!!!!!!
Of course a four year old gets it, they are programmed that way. It was nice that your husband tried to understand what all the fuss was about but I’m pretty sure he was just trying to be supportive. Which is not a bad thing at all. I spit Diet Coke on my keyboard while reading this. Just so you know.

Wolverines!!! (I had to scroll up to see how to spell that, lol) You crack me up!
I am still having trouble believing that Cheez Whiz is actually a cheese option at this sandwich shop. That is just wrong on so many levels.
Wolverines. Mascot, University of Michigan. Largest living group of alumni in the US. We salute you. WOLVERINES and GO BLUE!
Please know that tomorrow, somewhere in Austin, a 30-somethingish white male will be screaming “Wolverines!” at his coworkers. Those who have seen “Red Dawn” will feel something primal stir within them. The rest will just have to deal.

Sorry to have missed out on Wolverine Day… HILARIOUS!
If I screamed “WOLVERINES!!!!!” in public I would be killed by a pack of rabid Ohio State football fans because that’s the mascot of their bigggest rival and OSU football is the state religion. Even little old ladies will cut you and run over your dead carcuss with their walkers if you yell “WOLVERINES!!!!!” anywhere within the Columbus city limits. Apparently no one here has even watched Red Dawn, just Dirty Dancing.
Condo Blues’s last blog post..I’m Going to BlogHer ’09!
OMG. Somehow I stumbled onto your website and this post is so hysterical I’ve got tears streaming down my face! WOLVERINES! It’s totally funny.
I totally yelled out ’soylent green is people!!!’ in the car today and my boyfriend yelled ‘wolverines!’ and then we talked about how Americans are too prescription happy. Thank goodness.
On the ski lift this weekend we could hear a group 15-20 below us constantly howling, like they were coyotes. My brother and I started making other animal noises back at them: “Cock-a-doodle-dooo!!!! Meow!! etc.” Then I thought of your post and yelled “WOLVERINE!” It was fun.

Crap, I missed national ‘Wolverines!’ day?! I will so make up for it tomorrow at work. Patrick Swayze and Charle Sheen have nothin’ on me. Well okay, they’re hotter. And richer. And more popular. But aside from that I can totally revel in their legacy!

Fuck, Jenny, you make me laugh so hard and with such sincere abandon.
I’d yell “Wolverines” for you anywhere, anytime.

Oh I am so glad Victor redeemed himself at the end there because seriously… How could he not find that shit funny?
I once started all of Twitter yelling SHAMWOW! Best day of my twittering life.
Jessica (at It’s my life…)’s last blog post..Weekly Winners – Summer is around the corner
After I put a link & reference to this post in my blog 1 or 2 random & slightly odd (in a good way), mostly British, people have taken to shouting “WOLVERINES!” on twitter every now & then.
Thanks for the (half) comment by the way: truly “Awesome”.
I’ve only just from this realised it’s a film reference. Have I mentioned I do film reviews on my blog? Like I’m some kind of expert.I give up
Can I click a button somewhere to nominate this as genius blog of the decade or something? I like buttons.
