Comments Are Coming Back!!

Last night I was convinced into bringing comments back on POTP. I attempted to do it myself, but you already know what a tech genius I am, so I need some tech support. I'm guessing that comments will be back by Monday.

If you haven't commented before, your comment will be held for moderation, then you'll be able to post at liberty without having to be moderated first, unless you piss me off with generic insults or I'm on the rag and decide to block your IP address.

Chime in dammit!!! Have fun with it and I hope to see the 1 comment per month that will come in from Mr. Gyllenhaal. To everyone else, thanks for reading. :)

Happy Birthday Cody!!!!

Cody H. is a big part of the reason why I blog, other than making money to keep my tranny hooker escort service on autopay.

In addition to being one sexy piece of hawtness, Cody is unbelievably funny and I love him to itty bitty mini-me versions of Reese's Pieces. His emails brighten my day so much. I tell him some of my personal bidness and we always have fun with it. And if I'm down, he makes me feel better instantaneously.

Thank you Cody for everything that you do. And iiiiieeeiiieeii will always LUV you! Ha.

* HAPPY Bday to The Incomparable Cody!!! *

I know I said I'd do red carpet posts this week but I'm tired. Boo. I may do some next week. TGIF and a big THANK YOU to my loyal readers and all the lovely, new ones with exceptional taste. See ya Monday. :)

Who Knew Wasting Food Is Good For You?

My favorite personal trainer, The Biggest Loser's Jillian Michaels said,

"Why should we apologize for the practices that help us manage the symptoms while we deal with the real reasons we eat? I pour candle wax on my food at restaurants. Not wanting to 'waste food' is a poor excuse for ending up far worse off later on, dealing with all the health problems that come with obesity.

"Losing weight is not about willpower--it's about moments of bravado, like the moment when you ask your waiter to take the bread away from the table right away."

I've poured dish washing soap on my food sometimes. Suddenly I'm no longer embarrassed 'bout it. Thanks, Jillian! But I definitely don't ask any waiter to take bread away; I ask for more and more! I also order from the kids' menu when I go out a lot - there's a weight loss tip provided by my fat ass. I hold a Ph.D in Bullshitology. Respect.

Seriously though, I do often order from the child's menu, much to the dismay of servers. You're not gonna overeat for sure when you do, and, as Jillian says, whatever works.

I'd love to hear Jillian's answer on what alcohol one should order while at the bar? I can hear her now, 'Just order water on the rocks with a lime slice on the rim so you can feel like you're sipping on an alcoholic beverage!'

Mood Swings, Music and Food

After I finished blogging yesterday I was no longer a happy blogger, instead I was a disgruntled employee.

I got a 2nd job last week which I was all Ooooohhh, yay money! about till I realized that I have to effing earn my paychecks. Sucks! But I didn't wanna be bitchy, cause when I'm doing anything other than blogging, bitching isn't so beneficial.
So I played my Ingrid Michaelson's Girls and Boys on my iTunes because her music is equally as soothing as a back massage. Then I pulled out my pint of Ben & Jerry's Fro Yo half baked - only 3 grams of fat per 1/4th pint. Half Baked is chocolate and vanilla ice cream mixed with brownie pieces and chocolate chip cookie dough chunks... And, I just wanna plug a delicious, new item on Jack in the Box's menu - I hope this is nationwide - Cheesy Macaroni Bites. It's basically gooey, cheesy macaroni rolled in batter and fried to a light crisp.  For days this snack has brought me more pleasure than my right hand. I highly recommend it.

Now back to your regularly scheduled gossip...

Firecracker, Future Family Feud Contestant

My mom is so cute. Not only did she slow down moving her legs last week while riding her exercise bike to listen to the news segment on why Kanye West got arrested. "I think it's something with drugs!" she asserted while catching her breath. Hells yeah, all activity must cease in order to find out what's happening with the famous folk. Yesterday my mom says me, my dad, my sister and my aunt should compete on "Family Feud."

She then tried to convince me that we'd own that shit by repeating, "I said cinnamon roll! I said cinnamon roll!" as if that single no.1 answer she guessed yesterday ensures we'll win.

I told her, 'I'm in! I'll do it. How much do you win?' She says, "Twenty thousand." I'm like, 'Cool, that means four grand for each of us.' Then I start laughing because I'm thinking that no one I talk to is at home watching Family Feud when it comes on and I'd have nothing to be embarrassed about since everyone works while it airs. I tell my mom, 'None of the people I'm connected to watch this mess, so whatever.'

Of course I wanted to replace "this mess" with 'this stupid shit' and by 'friends' I meant 'friends and any guy I wanna have sex with more than once / potential boyfriend,' but I was being respectful. If you're a male who watches Family Feud, that scares me, so the farthest I'll allow you to go is a peck on the cheek. No exceptions.

It's unlikely we're gonna appear on Family Feud, but I'll keep you posted if we go on there, haha. My family is so random. I know I wasn't switched at birth.

POTP Six Flags Ticket Winners

I don't really make a post on contest winners because I don't have the time, but I just wanted to send a HUGE thank you out to all of our Six Flags and Lil Mama, Lloyd and Estelle concert contestants!!! :)

The contest was such a success, and it was so hard for me to pick winners, that I was able to score 2 more pairs of tickets to make choosing a little easier. :)

I'm always happy when you hit me up via email. I love hearing about your backgrounds. You're a diverse group with impeccable taste, obviously. ;) Thank you all.

Pat, Ashley and Nick - have a blast at Six Flags this Sunday June 15!!! :)

Happy Memorial Day

Go out and have yourself a wonderful Memorial Day. :)

I can't wait for our troops to get back here. We love you guys! Come home safe. You're still on our minds and in our thoughts and prayers.

I really hope all the troops will be able to get the psychiatric help that they need, instead of the military being understaffed and underfunded for extensive treatment, when they get back. Don't be afraid to ask, guys. Real men ask for help when they need it. In the meantime, stay strong. :)

We'll be back tomorrow. <3 

Do Good Looks Play a Role in Whether or Not a Man Will Cheat? - Responses

I have heard that uglier people try harder in bed to compensate their looks..maybe the hot people are not trying hard enough? LOL Seriously though I think all men are born bastards..some just hide it better... :-)

- Kerri

This is true. I was watching a comedy show one time with Margaret Cho and she said she doesn't like having sex with hot men because they don't wanna do any work. She said, "Hot men just lay there in bed, like, look at all this you gettin'!!"

I've been cheated on many a time (till I found my real man...I think....? lol) and I'm pretty freakin hot and was cheated on with ugly nasty skanky bitches. Why oh why, I would ask myself too. BECAUSE NEW PUSSY IS ALWAYS BETTER THAN OLD PUSSY. That's basically it. Also, if your relationship is on the rocks, that pushes men out to do the cheatin too.

- Ashley

Your response reminds me of what public perception of the main fundamental behind infidelity is - looks don't matter. Many people always say "If a woman is hot and that man is still cheating, he's just a cheater!"

But, I also wonder if hot women attract a certain breed of cock.

Like, hot women who are with hot men, the men know they're gorgeous, nothing new there. But then there's the hot women who are with fug men who suddenly become very confident.

In either scenario, hot guy or not so hot guy, the male now knows that getting another chick is not going to be hard, whether she's equally as hot as his wife or girlfriend, or less hot. He knows what he's capable of scoring. And like you said, if you're also having drama in your relationship, he's gonna put his playa skills to use and get some action.

Men are much more egocentric than women, so it's difficult for me to concede that looks don't play a role in stroking their ego and rushing blood to their penis at times when their members should remain limp.

* Kerri and Ashley, I heart you girls more than I'm gonna type right now cause that would be too mushy. I loved your responses. I would have no answers to post if it wasn't for you, and thanks so much for reading POTP for as long as you have. :)

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And Happy Memorial Day weekend to everyone. :)

Recovering

I'm so sorry I wasn't able to update today. I woke up this morning feeling like dookie. I thought it was odd since I just spent the night before working out at the gym. I then spent hours in bed this morning, doing a little updating and hoping that I would miraculously feel better somehow. I then went to the hospital where I was there for 4 hours. I have a fever and a possible ear infection (the doctor said my right ear drum is purple) and it really hurts to swallow. I had no intention of going on the starvation diet, but I'm not so sure I have a choice.

I'm on meds now, but I swear they're too strong and making me feel queasy. I called in sick for work today and I'm supposed to go to an amusement park with some friends on Sunday, but at this point I dunno what will happen. I'm just trying to recover. So. Sorry.

Anywho, Snarky will be back on Monday. Have a fun, sick-free weekend.

<3

I had this wonderful message waiting for me in my inbox. Thanks for understanding, BG:

Subject: Wow...

Message: Wow, I have been visiting your site for a long time now and I must say this site is becoming a joke. Between all the "I'm sick", or I'm busy with this or that or my family is doing this or that, and not updating your site I can't see how your keeping any visitors. Get your fat ass off the couch and start updating things. I'm sure your getting decent money through sponsors and what not, but how about earning a little of it?

Hey BG,

You're such a sweetheart. Do you live in L.A.? Sounds like we could be BFFs. Holla.

Happy 1 Year Anniversary, Snarky

My favorite blogger in the blogosphere, Snarky, has been blogging for Pop on the Pop for one full year now!!!!!

I gave her this week off as a little present, and I am so honored to work with her. I would be lost without Snarky, because I have a crowded schedule and wouldn't be able to keep up. Pop on the Pop is around because of her.

She has impeccable comedic genius and she's always original. But what you don't know about Snarky, (real name Megan), is that she's an incredibly kind hearted, likable person with a big heart. She cracks me up each and every time I talk to her because she has so much energy in her voice and she has the ability to make the most mundane topic sound like the most hilarious, intriguing story.

Thank you, Snarky! I couldn't blog without ya and I don't wanna blog without you. See ya next week. :)
