For those of you that didn’t figure out that my post on Wednesday, April 1st, April Fool’s Day, and actually started following my gardening blog, thanks a whole lot. You just made that gardening blog more popular in ONE day, than this bitter blog was in 6 months. That’s right. It took the Bitter Blog six months to get 5 followers. That’s the kind of joke this blog was at the beginning. A complete flop. For those of you that did figure it out, well congratulations, you get a cookie. Except you don’t get one because I don’t have any and I’m sure as heck not going to send one to each of you that figured it out. The rest of this week was a flop too. I didn’t become a permanent extra on Community, nor did I even get nominated for the Laziness Awards. With my bad luck this week, I might not even get nominated for the Bitter Awards. Let’s take a look at more reasons why this week was a flop.
This week flopped so hard..
All the big expectations for gaming and lazing…
All the big ideas…
All the bitterly good jokes…
All the momentum gained…
I felt like there was just too much debate…
Every single day, it just seemed like I needed to go home…
Though I do think I solved the dilemma…
For some reason…
It seemed like I could never…
Seemed like every day…
And just like that…
I just can’t wait to see what the weekend will bring. More flops, flip outs and failures. And just when you think this week couldn’t get any worse, you get to experience next week, the week in which I celebrate the anniversary of me being born. I like to celebrate every year of me getting older, by being even more bitter about things. See 40 reasons to be bitter, followed by last years 41 reasons to be bitter from last year. Can you guess how many reason I will have to be Bitter this year? If so, you get a cookie and maybe some bittermilk to go with it.
ARRRRGGGGHHHHH

What happening? Are you going gluten free? That sounds like a miserable way to be a food critic.

Thank you for calling me a food critic. I like to think of myself more as a human critic. No, I am not, nor will I ever be, a glutard. Thank God. Now pass the rice crackers…

You’re majoring in human criticism, with a minor in food criticism. I would be really sad if you were a glutard. Pass the gluten rich pizza.
