So, I just refreshed the front page a few dozen times till I got the blurb in question. Here it is: “That’s not true, you look nothing like the Chupacabra.”
I assume that it’s the second half of a dialogue that you’re having with the Blurb God. The first half (your part) would go something like: “Oh no! How horrid! I look just like a Chupacabra today! Now Teddy will never ask me out on a date!”
Usually when someone says you don’t look the least bit ugly, it is because you have been insulted. That sounds exactly like a backwards way of insult to me. I know that I am overly sensitive, but why even bring it up?
@Yarnlady – I have to crack up when any of the hair “compliments” come up…I’m nearing the end of chemotherapy. I really don’t have hair right now, just a few that refused to leave my head – so when it comes on and compliments my hair, I just laugh.
Right now, it’s telling me, “We <3 you.” It’s always nice to hear that you’re loved!
@Yarnlady, I think you just have been getting my comments by mistake. My desk is horribly messy, and I don’t look anything like a chupacabra (which I always find reassuring), and besides, I had something in my teeth. Want to swap? It has a crush on you.
@Jeruba I think you’re right. It says I’ve hit my stride, now. I better be careful, I already have one stalker online, I wouldn’t want it to become a habit.
