Someone Showed Their Lack in Character Judgment and Gave Me a Liebster Award…

What a bastard.

Blogging awards are a great way to discover new blogs and circle jerk one another in salacious, blogalicious glee. They give the “awarder” a sense of power for being able to bestow a JPEG unto another and the “awardee” an ego boost akin to that post-oral comedown. *sigh* This is going to be a long post.

All seriousness aside, though, I’m f*cking flattered. lookingforhappiness e-mailed me and several other bloggers showing her appreciation for our obviously superior artistic prowess and now we’re somewhat obligated to pay it forward. I’ve had fun with blog awards with my past blogs and I’d like to continue that here. This is the way I like to do these blog awards:

• Not everyone likes to play the blog award game and that’s a-okay.
• Don’t feel obligated to answer the questions or nominate 37 other people. Just know that I enjoy reading your blog and would like other people to read it as well.
• Have fun.

So without further ado, let’s get on with the Liebster Award. Here are the “rules”:

• Link back to the person who nominated you. Check.
• Answer the questions given to you by the nominator. See way below.
• Nominate up to 11 other bloggers with less fewer than 200 followers. See just below. [Sorry, Mein Fuhrer, Grammar Nazi had to come out of the closet.]
• Create 11 questions for the nominees. See at the end.
• Notify all nominees via social media/blogs. In progress. 

And the nominees for blogs you should bother checking out in no particular order (with links to notable blog posts) are:

• ignorant girl: “men to avoid”
• Exochatter: “Hate For People”
• Spunky Chunk: “So I Guess Hairy Legs Aren’t Sexy?”
• Swiperella: “So you’re telling me Tinder isn’t for finding the one? Even if I am bring home to mom type material?”
• Plethoric Thoughts: “Discouraging marriage, machismo, and all this gender crap”
• The Unrelatable Teenager: “My Comfort In My Obsessions”
• heyheather83: “Love and Live Deeply”
• New Age Maiden: “My Journey Through Domestic Violence“
