Pinteste Round-up: Forum Winner Et Cetera

It’s time, it’s time! It’s time to announce the winner of the October forum contest!

By my calculations, the winner is this topic: Which type of pin annoys you the most? That makes you all a bunch of angry, annoyed pinners, and mamaC the winner! If memory serves, mamaC already has a t-shirt, so mamaC, go ahead and pick out anything from the store that your little heart desires, and I will send it on over to you. Email me your choice, size (if applicable), and address!

Don’t worry, everyone else. We’ll run a new forum contest in November so you’ll have your chance to win a prize, too!

Now, on to brilliance from the Pintestes this week, and boy, there’s some good stuff:

Mommybailey awww what a mess! but hey, when familys around it always makes things better! im just jealous you’re still able to wear sleeveless right now, i currently live in Wyoming and freeze my most-of-the-time-braless boobs off. its gotten to the point that when i actually do put a bra on my kids get excited bc they know we are about to go somewhere! sad. i know.

Haha, they’re trained, like my dog when I put on pants and shoes.

scotpjmacdonald I’m pretty sure I had a loose-stool that color and consistency when I had mono…I’m sure it would have looked much cuter with a white marshmallow ghost floating on it.

I just absolutely love that whenever I fail to take the low road, someone up in here does it for me. Thank you kindly.

godkina Are fingers really what you were going for? I’m thinking you fucked this one up on purpose… a “Dirty Halloween” Pintester Fail…   The tray looks like it’s full of the manhoods of  Lorrain Bobbits ex’s…just sayin’.

And in response:

StinkBubbles I’m less concerned with the fact that the pintester got to enjoy delicious, albeit non-witch finger cookies, and more concerned with the number of comments likening said cookies to penises. I’ve never seen a dangler like that, and I went through a pretty slutty phase in college. Where are you ladies finding these flat, wonky wangs? Step away from the dive bars, my friends. I know the drinks are cheap, but you can do better.

Thanks for pointing that out. I was thinking something along those lines, less eloquently.

kasethepeanut Just call them the fingers of the Wicked Witch of the East…you know, after they took the house off her flattened corpse.

Rock on! That means I could make these for Christmas, too, right?

lunarmom Mmmm, Sweetie, those don’t look a thing like MY fingers. Cuz ya know, I’m a real live witch. Could we call them Republican Fingers instead? Thanks!  😛

Oops– I inadvertently offended my Wiccan readers. Sorry Wiccan readers. And also, sorry Republicans. (You get to guess what for.)

Lots of you told me to rub Vaseline on my pumpkin to keep it from rotting. Seriously? (Not that I don’t love a good excuse to buy a giant tub of Vaseline and then make really loud off-color jokes about giant tubs of Vaseline while toodling through Wal-Mart…)

tyntiff2012 Kinda off topic but one thing that is sort of making me wonder about people more and more is the knowledge of the use of all these products. I mean who in the hell was sitting there looking at their pumkin after carving it and said ‘holy shit I’m gonna baste that fucker with some vaseline?’ I mean really! And the silica gel stuff..thats great if it works but who is this person/s trying this shit out for the first time! I don’t know if they should get a medal, the chest to pin it on or a fricken padded room! Or maybe a Nobel Piece Prize! Just sayin…not hatin

I hear ya.

TheOddWoman So… for the last several months, I have been hopping online everyday during my lunch hour to read your blog.  Because it is full of awesome and win.  Yesterday, as I entered the URL and pressed my Enter key… trembling with giddy anticipation over what gems of awkwardness were about to be revealed, my screen turned to a giant stop sign with a message: “This site has been blocked for the following reasons: Obscenity.” … And this is how I know that I’m reading the best of the best, the cream of the crop, the pièce de résistance.  Any shit that’s blocked at work due to obscenity is some good fucking shit.

Thank you, thank you.

And thanks for giving me more life-as-playground platitudes, everyone!

m_pinning Life is like one of those bouncy animal-on-a-spring rides; just when you think you’ve got the hang of it, it smashes you in the face.

Excellent.

ChelleCrew Some peoples’ lives are like a see saw, one person gets off and the other’s butt hurts…

I snorted my tea.

I think I’ll leave you with that.
