Thank you for this awesome blog. I posted part of it in the episode thread as a great example of how to snark! BTW, I made sure to quote it properly, I think.

It was the perfect example of snark......shows how to do it without being downright mean!!

I think I'll go read it again!!!!!!!!!!!!! But grabbing my tissues this time, because last time I had tears rolling down my face!

I concur, snarky in a delicious way, and one of the funniest blogs I've ever read.

Loved the blog! Best ever!

Thank you all very much. The blog was initially created as a sanctuary for suffering husbands. I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but I'm glad so many enjoyed this particular installment.

Thank you. I actually howled in laughter, louder and longer than anything I have read all season!

Thank you, thank you, and thank you!

If you ever want to know how to handle a Bachelorette, my friends, just watch and learn. Jef has bamboozled, charmed, flummoxed, humored, and intrigued Emily from the moment he arrived on his dumb skateboard. He tells jokes one minute with a air of insouciance and confidence, before he waxes poetic with considerable style and earnestness, and then retreats into a sublime indifference to her. Emily vibrates, laughs, is taken aback, and then melts like butter. It's been like watching Ted Williams hit baseballs; Gretzky shoot hockey pucks, or Ali dance around an opponent sticking and moving; just Bravo, Maestro! After watching Emily toy with Sean, this was damn near poetic justice. "We need to bridle our passions." Did you hear that? "Bridle our passions"? Did you hear that sh*t? Can you believe that sh*t? We are in a the presence of a master. Some artists work in clay or oils; others in stone or watercolors; Jef works in "Emily". Let's watch the master work: . . .

Think you nailed it Amberish and Barbossa; watch who's chasing who. In a nutshell. Unfortunately my co-workers have absolutely no idea why my eyes are so red from laughing MAO. High clap

I'd like to thank everyone who has gone over to my site and all folks here in general for contributing to a record day on Barbarossa's Blast.

Most page views ever and by a country mile at that. It makes the effort of writing definitely worth it. Special thanks to Dee Dreamer for my killer artwork these past few seasons and of course, San and Love Me for their incredible support.

You guys are great! High clap

Not to beat a dead horse, but I too think that was the funniest blog post I've ever read about this show. Hysterical. Someone shared it in the Jef thread, I didn't realize Barbarossa was a member here. :Smiley:

Your best ever, Barbarossa! I laughed so hard I scared the dog and he just looked at me as if I had two heads giggling

The Jef parts were brilliant.

I agree with the others that this blog needs to be used as a lesson in the porper way to snark.
