Earlier this week I was involved in a big fight with the famous blogger, MeMo. I totally won. And not just because she didn’t respond to me at all. Not knowing I exist is pretty much the same thing as admitting that you can’t compete with me.
ALL THE COOL KIDS ADVERTISE HERE:
I fucking love these people & not just because they support my wine-slushee habit:
Flourish in Progress: (T)hug Life: Part hood. Part good.
The Mack Files: Digesting life in bite-sized pieces through the lens of clichés, quotes & “truisms”. Often irreverent, always honest.
Barking at the Moon: If your dog is your furry child, you will laugh out loud at Tracy Beckerman’s book about her family & a one-dog wrecking ball named Riley.
Wonder and Joy for the Wired and Tired: Feeling wired, tired, and stretched too thin? You’re not alone. Re-ignite your sense of childlike wonder, joy, and well-being with this enlightening and entertaining book by Dr. Pam Stephens Lehenbauer, well-being thought leader and author of the blog, Mother Nature’s Apprentice.
Stuff and Thangs from Xanaru: A mostly funny stuff about my quest for happiness through stories, art, friendship, Great Danes, one naked weirdo alien cat and indiscriminate swearing.
How the Hell Did I Not Know That?: Humorist Lucie Frost shares daily Instagram reels with learnings of the day—words, music, whatever–with plenty of laughs and all the curse words.
Beautiful Writers book: Writers! This coming-of-career memoir (w/ the BEST advice from celeb authors, real shit you haven’t heard) is life. A page-turning beach read doubling as how-to. #Magic
His Lies Did Not Erase Me: A collection of dark poetry by Stacie Ann Leininger
No Pithy Phrase: Between cancer, creatures, and the horde, there’s always something weird going on over here. The witchy writing freak flags are flying.
Butterfly Goo: The Down and Dirty Truth of Transformation Transformation isn’t pretty, but this hilarious memoir is filled with the mishaps, mistakes, misadventures, and mess of one heroine’s journey. Includes playground areas if you want to make changes in your own life.
Hyperbole and a Half by Allie Brosh: SO GOOD.








I can’t compete with you. Is that pretty much the same thing as not knowing you exist?
BTW, WAAHOOOO on your new blog! It’s already Bloglined and lurved :).
1) I know you exist…
2)…not gonna even try to compete with The Blogess.
3) When I FINALLY get around to creating a Pensieve blogroll, you will be there not once, but twice :).
I just read her post. I think she was trying to be all flip but ended up looking like an A-wad.
More people don’t know that hack exists than don’t know you exist. Comparing posts, you was worth reading, hers was drivel, you got 55 comments, she got 13 (even with a link from your blog) and two of them were Mama Dram bloggers.
I’d like to use a word that has become fairly popular over the last few minutes..fuck her.
I never heard of MeMaw. You are obviously WAY more famous to me.
Yeah, totally. Jenny wins all. 🙂
Does this mean we *won’t* get to see the “Three-way blogger-chick Jell-o Deathmatch”?
~EdT.
So I post my first comment, and it comes back:
Does anyone else see the irony in moderating comments on a blog that comtains (or will soon enough) more F-bombs than there are nuclear warheads in the combined arsenals of the WORLD?!?
~EdT.
Ed, it’s only your comments that get moderated. Everyone else I trust.
As much as I would love to think that number of comments = fame and quality of work, it just ain’t true. MeMo is famous and even has her own wikipedia entry. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kyrie_O%27Connor) Meanwhile I’m semi-famous for renaming my vagina.
So since this is two years out, I decided to google to see if by now you have a Wikipedia entry. Turns out you still don’t (don’t mean to burst your bubble, you should already know this). But you are mentioned in the SexIs wikipedia entry: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SexIs_(magazine)
Conclusion: You need a Wikipedia entry.
I just found you today but I was curious and check on the latest wiki. And you are finally there. 🙂

I’m only 5 years late, but who or what is a MeMo???
Jenny Lawson / Bloggess = household name. Quoted daily.
Jenny wins.
To the victor go the spoils…
Then again, who wants something that’s spoiled?
Jenny. It is 2015. Just read your first book. Fell in love and found you on Twitter and Facebook.
Am now starting at the beginning of your blogs and reading through. I was reading backwards from 2015, but this seemed easier 🙂
Bless your heart for your kindness and truthfulness and generosity.
New “tribe” member.
