SB Is No Longer Accepting Blog Awards

My ass is too goddamn popular, and I can't keep up with the awards postings anymore, so I'm not accepting anymore awards, unless they involve money, alcohol, drugs, or sex. Also, I'm too damn lazy and selfish to pass that shit on, so even though I appreciate the thought, NO MORE AWARDS, motherfuckers.

I less than humbly thank you.

Sorry. I hate them too. I don't always accept them or conveniently "forget" to do them and generally don't pass them along. But (always the fucking but) the last one allowed for just a different way of posting - the photo - the video - like a dare. I took the dare. Fuck me.

Love you tons.

Remember a few years ago and all those tags? I kept getting tagged all the time
having to come up with lists of the world's most embarrassing experiences, best local restaurants, what animals I would like to be reincarnated as... etc etc etc... eventually I just could not keep up with them and probably offended a lot of people in the process but just had to stop doing them, so I get 100% where you're coming from

I agree. I don't know who has what anymore. And the awards are nice and mucho appreciated but I can barely keep up with blog reading.

Hahahahahaha.... You are so wonderful, the best ever, without the awards.

All my love

Me either.

Findon,
You are a doll, and SB loves you.

I have a total love/hate relationship with blog awards.

Lets face it. Blog awards were invented by people who want be liked, and they think by endowing others with some virtual ribbon they hope to increase he likelihood they will be liked more.
It's a tough world out here in the blogosphere. Some blathering hacks have millions of followers and some really good writers have 7. You better do this because you enjoy doing it, and because the interactions you have with the readers who happen upon you turn into interesting, offbeat friendships. Those who live by stats and prizes are licking sprinkles off donuts and calling it dinner.
I received two awards which I hated because I felt pressured to act honored not to mention "pass it on." (I refused) It felt completely inauthentic. If you like what I write, leave an appropriate comment that shows you read the damn entry. Perhaps something insightful or funny or bitter or even nice, but REAL. Spare me cutsie, sparkly, or anything that could be appearing on a million other blogs at exactly that very moment ("I know! I HATE when that happens. Feel better! Love ya!") It so lazy! Get a real personality--not one you've cobbled together based on how popular you think it'll make you.
**HUGS!!!!!**** (That was sarcasm--why we love SB.)

Mark,
That made me laugh. I'm not sure who is angrier about phoniness, you or me or Holden Caulfield.
