(No Thanks)giving

Click HERE to read Jonboi's Thanksgiving Recap. 

So yesterday was Thanksgiving Day in the US. The official start of the "Holiday Season" here, and boy are my arms tired. No wait. Wrong line. Sorry. 

WTF?  Is it possible to unlaughmyasson?  Something is not quite right with this guy . . .

. . . my family, . . . all gathering to eat {turkey} . . . and my bread.  Yep, you read it right, my bread. 

Yayers!  I can read! 

I baked two loaves of bred for thanksgiving. 

Oh squick!  Apparently, someone can't use spell check.  (*bleaches brain*)

Everyone loved the bread and ate all of it. . . .Its a nice heavy, sweet bread, but not soo sweet that it tastes like a pastery. 

Did he eat pastery in kindergarten?  That explains a lot.

Yes, I'm talking about cooking . . .

Really?  Because bread involves baking . . .

I do most of the cooking in the house. I enjoy it, and I'm actually pretty good at it. 

Sure you are, Nathaniel.  Do you wear your pearls to cook your bred?  (*bleaches brain*)

Laurell would say that its "just one of the many things I do well."

Blergh.  TMI fanboy.  TMI.

Anyway, Here's to everyone in the US: Hope you have a enjoyable Thanksgiving. Everyone else: Here's to a pleasant weekend. 

Anyway, here's to everyone in lkh_lashouts.  I hope you had an enjoyable Thanksgiving.  Please remember that you (yes, you!) can also write novels with no understanding of grammar or spelling or plots or modesty.  Or, in the alternative, you can become an author by proxy by eating a lot of paste-ry and fanboying.

"Hey! I'm a GUY! And I COOK! Isn't that NEAT?"

Nobody actually cares, Jon. I've had boyfriends make me dinner before. You are not all that speshul.

Did he eat pastery in kindergarten? That explains a lot.
I actually loled.

and on top of that, sometimes I wonder if he's not a real person. it's like so many celeb blogs I can't believe the people wrote, it's probably Laurell writing it.

Psst, your html has an extra http: in it. ;D

Sure, Jon, it'd be a great weekend for we in Australia if Saturday weren't totally consumed with a Federal election. Seriously, television tonight consisted of election coverage, or The Empire Strikes Back. Feel the irony.

Admittedly, I can understand posting with pride about baking gone right -- I danced spastically around and took photos of my chocolate muffins when they turned out to be delicious beyond words. But that's in my personal blog -- I didn't take over my non-existant spouse's professional blog to talk about my achievements. Not that LKH's blog is "professional", but you get the picture. Seriously, what does he want from this? Gold stars from the troobies that HE BAKES BREAD? Should the zompocalypse come, there'll be one house in St Louis that's able to make bread??? WHAT?

Quite frankly, I would've been more surprised if he said he DIDn'T do the baking. The way LKH talks about writing, it's such a chore. How could she possibly have time all those things we lowly readers do, like bake?

Sometimes I wonder if it's actually Jon who was the horrible blogger, and Laurell got infected, because... yikes. Like dwg, I can see being proud (I don't bake a lot, so when something works, I go yatta. I admit it.), but it's maybe two or three lines of my blog post, NOT THE ENTIRE CRUX OF IT.

My favorite part is Everyone loved the bread and ate all of it. I thought it was a Laurell blog from that. "Everyone loves me and I am the bestest they all want a taste of me--I mean my bread." Until this flog, I didn't know it was a boi blog. Though I was wondering why the hell LKH would bake since it's not girly or angsty and there was no complaining of the suffering she experienced for the bread.

He's even more brain dead than LKH. I didn't think it was possible.

Pastery?

Isn't that something you eat out of jars in the kitchen when even your parents hate you?

I have to do this.

When I read this line:

I do most of the cooking in the house. I enjoy it, and I'm actually pretty good at it.

...it reminded me of a scene in Queer As Folk, when Justin's mom took him to a shrink to find out why he thinks he's gay. This was Justin's response:

"I like dick...I want to get fucked by dick, I want to suck dick...I like sucking dick, and I'm good at it, too."

LMFAO

By itself, the blog is so stupid it's funny, but imagined with his Kermit voice... priceless. If I ever saw him in public/at a signing or something, I don't think I'd be able to keep from laughing.

You know, all I can think of is the phrase "having a bun in the oven" and that leads to freaky MPreg thoughts.

Do you suppose pregnancy would calm someone like Richard down or just make him even more of a whiny, neurotic bitch?

[refche.livejournal.com]

Wrong line? What? I missed something with me being non-American?

Not that whatever Jon says in this life is of any relevance, I'm just trying not to headdesk to the rest. Chat programs today have spell checking abilities. It's not advanced science. It's like Team LKH decided to write the most useless post and then thought it wasn't annoying enough.

...

I kinda want to be Jon. Can you imagine the awesome life? Your wife makes tons of money writing crap. She's really obsessed with writing crap, so she doesn't bother you all that much, and you have loads of free time to read comics and cook and stuff. Job description: Practically Brainless. I'd make myself business cards and everything.

Oooooh, a GUY! Like, making FOOD! Even the simplest variety! That is like, SO groundbreaking.

Seriously, Jonboi. Plenty of men do cooking; you and Laurell are not the speshullest snowflakes, shattering gender barriers everywhere while everyone else toils in their stereotypical roles. I wouldn't think this was so lame if he didn't act like this is HUGE news that he can make bread. "Yep, you read me right"? Blecchers.

BTW, I really don't think most men would be proud of the fact that they are their wife's own personal Nathaniel-style subservient houseboy. *Bleaches brain*

Ummmm...Yay? Good for you Jon? You want a cookie?
