I like “The Patron Saint of Diaper Pails”.
Someone used to call me “Herman.” No idea why.
But you’re right about the names from the Mr. and little one…those are the best names ever!
I have a list up this morning.
Ginny Marie´s last blog post..Life in the Fast Lane, Kind of…
I know the day someone calls me a fucking moron that I will have arrived.
Got a list up.
eliz´s last blog post..13 1/2 Songs I “Saw” in a New Way Upon Hearing Them at the Movies
Excellent list.
crazylovescompany´s last blog post..Places I’ve changed the diaper
I love the list! From, “A Callous Woman” (something I was called a dozen years ago by a parent for failing a student in sophomore American lit after she turned in only one of more than thirty homework assignments. I’ve worn that one like a badge of honor!)
Most of the things they call me should be done behind my back, but are instead to my face. Is that a plus? I don’t know… List up!
Elizabeth´s last blog post..Why Sometimes You Get the Stink Eye
I really like your list! It’s quite original.

Emily´s last blog post..I’m Moving To WordPress…
Great list. Mine is up but my computer has turned on me and code isn’t working. I linked manually.
Laurin´s last blog post..What Passes For Exercising Around Here
I got called, “Neither human nor a resource” on a survey once. That was cool.
My list is up.
Kerry´s last blog post..4 Dumb Job Interview Questions (and 3 Possible Answers)
“They call me Hel, they call me Stacy, they call me her, they call me Jane…” Sorry, couldn’t resist.
J.´s last blog post..5 Months and a Dream
@J., that’s what I was going for, actually!
And, as some apparently wise British men once said, in the end…it’s the last two that forever matter most.
foradifferentkindofgirl (fadkog)´s last blog post..tonight’s episode – ‘the case of the filched fire wood!’
I think the rash of name calling means you’ve made it? Anyway, as long as you’ve got the last two, you’re golden right?
I’m all listed up.
Ginger´s last blog post..Watch out, it’s a raving Monday list!
okay, so I’m dying to know which A-List Blogger is trashing you, although I understand not giving them a plug on your blog.
I was called a femi-nazi bitch once. I was all, “What? People still say that?” It was pretty awesome though. It made me feel all retro.
jenni´s last blog post..I’m Shrinking!
@Jenni, it’s old news, it’s from the bathroom wall, from a long time ago. It’s just so classic I had to include it.
I can’t believe I didn’t link to you in my drama loving post. Call me an idiot. I call you an Honest Woman.
“1/1000th of the person that The Redneck Mommy is,” — that is my favorite of the bunch. But that would make you very very tiny, almost two inches tall.
@Neil, we’d have to add “Lilliputian” to the list, in that case.
Seeing as I’m the asshat who called you a fucking moron, I came here via Deb on The Rocks to apologize. I’m sorry. I was caught up in the stupid drama of the whole thing and should have agreed to disagree. I actually already subscribed to your blog a while ago because I liked it and bah, doesn’t matter…I’m sorry. It was a shitty thing to say.
@Karen, aww, thanks for coming by. No hard feelings, everybody was worked up about it the other day. Very classy of you to comment here. Bygones.
That doesn’t mean she still doesn’t think you’re a fucking moron, by the way –
(ha ha, sorry, just trying to drum up some controversy, cause we know you LOVE IT)
Neil´s last blog post..Sending Love to Shannon of Charming Bitch!
Say, that IS pretty classy.
@Neil – haha no I really don’t think Anna is a fucking moron. I, however, acted like one.
Neil just likes to watch girls fight.
