When I Want Your Opinion….

February 2, 2008 by WendyB

…I’ll beat it out of you. And it’s time for a beating. Do you bitches prefer pop-up comments or non-pop-up comments? I know Carol and ENC prefer pop-ups. How about the rest of you?

Speaking of blogging peeps, quite a few have made my day by presenting me with the You Make My Day award.

Thank you to:

  • Jello on Springs
  • I Spy, Thrift Eye
  • Poetic and Chic
  • Heart and Soul
  • I Need More Drama
  • The photo-tastic Altamira NYC (didn’t mean to leave you out!)

Special mention goes to the following, for having the good taste to mention my famously amazing bosom.

  • I Need More Drama
  • The Coveted

Finally, Losing It asked for six random facts about me right before my blog was frozen. Don’t worry, L.I.! I haven’t forgotten you.

UPDATED TO ADD: I can’t believe I forgot to mention the most exciting thing that happened during my blog freeze: my night on the town with the Weasel, the other Wendy and Wosa. Here’s the report from La Belette Rouge:

  • Part I: Drinks and Weasels
  • Part II: Dinner and Dancing

UPDATED AGAIN: I’m going to try the pop-up comments for a while and see if they annoy me. I do like the way pop-ups allow you to keep an eye on what you are commenting on. However, they make it more difficult to click back on a commenter’s profile. Therefore, pop-ups are on probation for now.

    I don’t know what they’re called, but I like the comments where I can see the entire post, not just the text. That way if I want to mention/praise/comment on something specific in a photo, I can see it easily.

    Thanks for looking at Duncan in the bag. You know, we were near probably 50 people, between the store and the two buses, and no one knew the little cutie was there! He just curled up and rode, just like he did on our five-day trip across the country in a UHaul truck in June, 2006.

    and i vote for pop-ups. so much easier to comment AND look at coco’s ASSets at the same time.

    I must admit I like the pop-ups. My short-term memory is so bad that by the time I get to the new comment window, I’ve forgotten the really clever comment I was going to post.

    What was the question again?

    Pop-ups. I’m too old to remember what I read 5 minutes ago.

    You totally deserve the “You Make My Day” award . . . I look forward to your wry wit more than my morning coffee.

    Welcome back Wendy! I missed your so funny posts, congratulations for all the new awards that you have!
    Love your Moschino jacket, is somenthing like Betty Boop should wear too

    I like the pop-ups too

    Congrats on the award, and things that pop up are far more exciting:)

    I like the non pop-ups, because I spent my childhood being beaten by Whack-a-Moles.

  11. KiKi says

    February 3, 2008 at 3:21 pm

    I’m kinda traditional dahlin’ so non pop ups for me.
    Anyway, your boobs are getting more and more popular. I’m sure the two other “wendy brandes” are jealous. lol.
    besos!
    Miss J.

    I vote pop-ups!

  14. Blue Floppy Hat says

    February 3, 2008 at 4:14 pm

    I vote for popups- being able to see the post and pictures while you comment is a good thing!

  15. Practically Perfect In Every Way says

    February 3, 2008 at 5:34 pm

    um… you are pretty.

  16. jennine says

    February 3, 2008 at 7:42 pm

    haha well, i only mention b/c i’m jealous.

    and anyway… popups, that way i can read the post and the commmets at the same time. yay for multitasking

  17. altamiranyc says

    February 3, 2008 at 7:52 pm

    Hey, I thought I nominated you for that too?

  18. altamiranyc says

    February 3, 2008 at 7:54 pm

    Oh, and I vote for non-pop ups too. It seems more convenient to click on a user name and surf to a new page and surf to a non-pop up page than to do all that inside of a pop up window.

  19. Aisha says

    February 3, 2008 at 9:36 pm

    I prefer non-pop-up comments 😉
    Congrats on the award =D!

    i vote for pop ups because then i can always look back onto the past if i’ve forgotten the name of a particular item that i would like to comment on and whatnot and i’ve got a dreadful 3 second memory so pop ups rock!

  21. Shaz says

    February 4, 2008 at 4:41 am

    NO! keep pop-ups!! dammit wendy you better not change it!!

  22. the princess says

    pop-ups are cool. i didn’t realize what it was until right now…since I am currently looking at your blog while posting a comment. you made me laugh so hard that 2 co-workers came into my office to find out what was so funny. it was the “do you bithces…” bit

  23. the_kitten says

    February 4, 2008 at 11:41 am

    pop-ups because I can scroll on – on the other hand I lose the post I want to comment about and then forget what I wanted to write and espesh when it’s about a pic because that doesn’t show if I click – show original post. Hm, but still, pop-ups is good!

    If I was a programming pro, though, I’d make something which slides out from the post and you can comment but it’s still the same site.

  24. La Belette Rouge says

    February 4, 2008 at 2:00 pm

    Hate to go against the crowd–but I am anti-pop-ups. You can read the original post in the non-pop-up form too.

    Wendy, thanks again for that amazing evening and Brunch. WendyW and I had the best time ever!!! Belette and NYC are very happy. I am shopping for NYC weasel. He is craving a leather jacket. As soon as I find one I will post pictures.
    A million mercis!!

    February 4, 2008 at 7:57 pm

    Princess, I hope you sold them some WendyB jewelry or at least recruited them as readers.
    LBR, I can’t wait to see Gay Weasel’s new outfit!

  26. The Seeker says

    February 5, 2008 at 5:46 am

    I vote for pop-up comments, we can see the post and photos while commenting.
    Congrats on the award, your write it’s funny.

    I’m digging the pop ups. Also, I like weasels. They are so much better than ferrets.

  28. editor says

    February 5, 2008 at 1:08 pm

  29. All Things Bright and Beautiful... says
