Smorgashboard Sunday

Welcome to another edition of Smorgashboard Sunday!  This week’s edition is a little bit different because I actually asked for happy posts that I could highlight.  So now let’s get on with the happy…

Barb tells a tale of a security threat that was dealt with promptly and professionally.  Of course it’s a happy moment because no one got hurt!

Cissa blogs about the happiness brought to us by children through the power of Disney in 3-D.  To infinity… and beyond!!!

Bobbird3131 (aka Poppy‘s mom) retells the best time she ever spent during a flight layover!  Who knew happiness could come in an airport during a layover in the form of cereal… and Calypso music.

Crystal shared the trials and tribulations of US immigration in trying to bring home the best goodnight kiss… eva.  Extra points for doing it legally!

And finally…

Popp Rawkit gives us a glimpse into the cinematic experience that has brought her a new passion.  So… I’m going to go invest in a suit of armor now… k, thx, bai.

Thanks to everyone who participated in making the blogosphere a little bit of a happier place… have a good week!

As a reward for feeding me with my internal thirst for reading materials… I designed this simple button for those who may want to display their Snacked upon status proudly:

Additionally… because I am beyond benevolent and loving contrary to what some people believe… here is the code for you to use with a permalink directly to this post.  So if your blog was snacked upon today, all you need to do is copy and past the code:

Smorgashboard Sunday is a weekly compilation of interesting posts, pictures, and videos that I have found within the 350+ feeds of personal or personal related blogs that I currently read.  Due to the volume of blogs and the 10-12 posts I limit myself to comment on, there may be times when posts that you author do not appear.  This is not to say that you did not have a good post, or an important post, or even a post I did not read because in all likelihood I did indeed read it.  This simply means that for that week(s) that you are excluded… well… I thought other posts were better choices for the Snacking.  This does not mean I don’t like you, I don’t love you, or that I don’t read you.  It just means that for that week(s), I chose other posts but there is always the possibility of next week.  Unless.

Unless you cry, whine, send me e-mail messages begging me to feature you, send e-cards with links to the posts you want linked, tell me how I don’t love you, tell me how I don’t like you, tell me how sad you are, tell me how I don’t read you even though you know I did because I commented that week, and/or try to muscle me with threats of large “goombas” paying a visit.  If you do any of that… then hold your breathe until you see yourself on the Smorgashboard again.  While your doing that… go get a white hat and get yourself some Smurfberry Pie ‘cause you’ll be blue before you see it.

Happy Zombie Jesus Day!

In honor of the zombie within all of us… this is Smorgashboard Sunday: The Deviled Egg Edition!  Why?  Because we all know the Devil made zombies… and there are a shitload of hard boiled eggs leftover… and what do you do with so much eggs?  Devil them of course!  So anyway… here are the best devilish posts from my blogosphere over this past week (well okay… Sunday-Friday because I’m writing this on Saturday)…

Leave it to the Canadian LeSombre to finally find Jesus.  It’s about time he came out of the closet to put the nail in the coffin of the RC Church, don’t you think?

Poor Soda may have mono!  At least she found relief in chocolate pudding!

Hilly is making the big trip from the tumultuous about to sink into the Pacific Ocean West Coast to the far stabler superior East Coast right when the Atlantic Ocean hurricane season is getting ready to start.  I’m guessing she’s due for at least two speeding tickets on the way.

It turns out that Miss Britt was actually raised by a hippy.  While that could explain alot… contrary to her belief, her gifts are definitely better than all those other gifts for women blogs out there.

Avitable unknowingly named our next cat.  I anticipate my Twitter usage to drop significantly from May on.

Faiqa gave us some power words to ponder.  Do I get my Communication Sensitivity Certification yet?  No?  Why?  Twitter???  WTF!?!?!?!  Bitch.

B is less than $250 from her goal for the Maryland ASPCA.  Instead of spending your money on the 50% off chocolate bunnies that you don’t need tomorrow, try saving a real one.

Da Duck has been appleized.  Pretty soon we’ll realize that iGadget is the new zombie.

Dutchbitch has placed her self firmly on Team Craig in the Great Bond Debate.  She’s also into gene splicing.  End of times?  Anyone?  Anyone?

And finally the most devilish for last…

Poppy has the bestest boyfriend in the world!  He took her to eat endangered species!!!  No.  It wasn’t Top Chef so it wasn’t Chilean Sea Bass.

So that just about sums up this past week… have a good coming week!!!

Welcome to another edition of the Sunday Smorgashboard.  Today I’m giving you the best snippets from around my blogosphere along with a clarifying statement called the Bottom Line.  Why the Bottom Line?  Because I say so.  That’s why.  Now let The Snacking begin…

Faiqa was the Catalyst of the Week when she declared that traditionally ethnic institutions were now American while declaring that crawfish eating does not automatically make you an American.  This lead to some introspection and a further accounting of the concept of American Culture by Hilly.  This topic sucked so many brain cells down the tube that there was even a Clearly Your Retarded episode about what makes a real American and whether or not 14 people sharing one bathroom is too many or not enough.

Bottom Line: Canada is no longer being blamed.  Blame Faiqa.

Speaking of Canadians, Canadia’s Blogger LeSombre did a review of Slumdog Push.  Apparently in Canada they even need to mash up movies to keep the costs of bootlegs down.

Bottom Line: Don’t go see either one separately but especially as a mashup.

Along the same lines, Avitable did a review of Watchmen.  Like most of the world, including my partner KC, he raves about it.  It’s always the raves that worry me.  Why?  Because they also rave about movies that sucked balls like Jumper and High School Musical 3.  Of course I’m going to go myself and determine how I fell about it, but I think I’ll take Avitable’s other reviews at his word.

Bottom Line: There’s reportedly a ton of blue penis in the movie, so it can’t be ALL that bad.  It may actually be… Smurfy.

Update: I saw it.  All the reviews are right.  It rawked.  While the new trailer for Terminator: Salvation was very BattleStar Galacticaish, the trailer for the new Star Trek looks like this is exactly what the franchise needs… adrenaline.

Speaking of things that are blue, Slobokan took on Best Buy when they sold him a broken camera, disrespected his mother-in-law, and laughed about it.  There was some wrangling, some other posts about the situation, and a front page appearance on a little site called DIGG.  In the end though, Slobokan won.

Bottom Line: Don’t be an asshat to the mother-in-law.  Selling previously used and broken merchandise is also ill advised.

On the merchandise front, Miss Britt finally is expanding her brand with a new product review site for every woman.  As it turns out Frederick’s of Hollywood rejected her as an affiliate.  Apparently they are not selling merchandise for every woman… just the slutty ones who’ll wear what they’re boyfriend/husband/domestic abuser buys them.  On the bright side however, Playboy HAS accepted her, so I fully expect photos of her modeling the merchandise to hit any second now… which is why I keep hitting refresh on her Flickr account.

Bottom Line: FOH sells cheap glammy shit better suited for the escort industry than a long time throw at home.  Don’t believe me.  Dawg is always right… always.

Speaking of expansions, it’s time that B.E. Earl has to expand his blog another notch with his 500th post.  That’s enough for a W00T! W00T! celebration on any blog.

Bottom Line: I’m sorry to tell you junior that it’s really all down hill from there.

Finally…

Speaking of expanding notches, Whall is looking to compress a few on his belt.  His new diet program is by far one of the most ingenious and original concepts ever put out there.  I personally can’t wait for the DVD, but there’s no reason not to start this right now! 

Bottom Line: Oprah called.  Dr. Phil wants his common sense back.

P.S.

I love Poppy.

Bottom Line: That is all.
