The Prizes in My Cereal Box

For those of you like me, who use Google Reader or something of the like (which is the only way to both blog and have a life outside of blogging), it wonderfully streamlines your reading experience but the down side is, you don't get to see the comments that are left on other people's blog unless you actually go to the person's blog (gasp!) and read them. If you read my blog through a feed, you seriously are missing out some laughter because I have some crazy funny friends. So I thought I'd fill you in. Here are some gems you might have missed:

(Though I gave no reference point as to which post they came from, I tried to choose comments that could stand alone, which unfortunately caused me to leave out some super funny comments left by some super funny people.)

Top Ten Most Hilarious Comments

10."Somethings you just have to bite. It's an irrestable impulse. I was a plastic grape kid myself." -MommacitaG

9. "Hi Annie Nate here backing up your husband. As I see it, your knees should be buckling from overwhelming gratitude for the following reasons: 1) according to best evidence available to science, the ability or desire to wash dishes was deleted from the Y chromosome in the early Mesazoic period where men devolved from eating out of dishes to drinking milk straight from the carton and potato chips straight from the bag. This was also the period where we as a species recognized that lifting the toilet seat before peeing was overwhelming work and not necessary to survival. Brandon is overcoming several generations of evolution by actually washing the dishes, which is pretty impressive. 2) It is also notable that he asked where to place the dishes as opposed to stuffing them in the first open space available. This has been the time honored tradition of male cleaning since Vlad the Impaler came up with his mass grave solution. That he tried to put it back with some order flies in the face of years of male conditioning, though it does show some of that surgical training might be taking hold." - NateP

8. "does she watch Dora the Explorer? Now that dora is a yeller and I think she is teaching all toddlers to yell with her. Is it wrong to want to kill a cartoon?" - LeighW

7. "Oh yes, and I was trying to think of things that I kept of old boyfriends and couldn't think of any (stolen items, not old boyfriends, I had plenty of those). I did remember though that a boyfriend gave me a coffee table book of temples for Christmas (he dumped me a week later) which I then proceeded to use as my wedding guest book 6 months later. How do you like them apples?!?" - BethV

6. "I just bought a new hair flat iron and it says not to use while sleeping... Dang- it was such a time saver to do my hair during the middle of the night..." - AmberD

5. "A little girl I used to babysit cut out a picture from a JCPenny circular because she thought it looked like me. I was so flattered, although admittedly I wished it could have been from a slightly cooler catalogue." - AlisaR

4. "I would suggest that no one ever use the two words "Moist" and "Cubicle" in the same sentence...like "Your cubicle is moist and smells pungent."- EthanK

3. "Have you tried rubbing Go under your arms?" - BradR

2. "I often thought in my gym rat days (back in my 40's): Hey there, in all of my most wanted earthly experiences that I ever thought I wanted, I always wanted to see your nakedness and you blow dry your hair in a room with mirrors on three walls. Thanks for helping me relive that visual. ps Of course I never actually wanted that earthly experience. I never even thought I wanted it. I'm not sure why I said that. I'm not gay. not that there's anything wrong with that. pss I was happily married for 26 years until my husband died. You do the math. " - MommacitaG

1."I often dream about being an amputee. Most regularly it is one of my arms that is missing. The situation is never hopeless because there is generally a decent selection of prosthetic limbs lying around, none of which are exactly the right size, but I manage. One time, however, I had to make due with a very hairy, very long, black arm. In my dream, I had to wear this prosthesis on my first post-mission date with Chad. An unfortunate dilemma, but he pretended not to notice and we had a very nice time." - AlisaR
