It's you I'm looking for...


Is that funny or what? Definitely more delicious than the color me bad dress. If you're an OG (original generation) MTV-er, I know you remember this album cover of Lionel's!

This post is a contest announcement and I'm happy to say it's world wide. My sister emails and texts some funny stuff to me. Some things are meh. Some of it has me crying w/laughter. I've returned the favor, finding some images and vids to share w/her. We've been sooooo silly lately that I want to share it here in a regular feature. I've been trying to come up w/a title for the posts. Sh*t My Sister Sent would be perfect, but I can't say I want to see that every week. Where is the power in cursing if you do it all the time? I tried a play on Canciones de Mi Papa, but it didn't work (shout out to Linda Rondstadt).

For those of you skimming, I'll reiterate. I'm seeking a post title for a new feature I wish to implement. I've racked my brain with no result and hoping someone can come up w/a title I like. It's you I'm looking for! Submit your entries in the comments. If no one suggests anything I like, I will still pull one winner thru random.org as a thanks-for-playing. At stake, a $10 gift card to J Crew. You can get your card info electronically, so this is open worldwide.

Contest open until Tues, Feb 14 @ 11:59p PST.

  1. Oooo great idea for a post series! What about something along the lines of:
    -In Stitches
    -For Your Amusement
    -Just Another Diversion

    Good luck!! and I looooove the Lionel photo - if I saw that in real life, I would have takened it and framed it :P

  2. I don't know I quite like "sh*t my sister says"!
    But I know, cursing isn't really the best option. How about "SIster Pass It On" which might be fun as we all need The Silly, sounds like these might be posts I'd pass on to my own sister. Or hey how about "The Silly".
    Well, whatever you end up naming this feature, I'm in!

  3. Oh, that's a good pic of Lionel. hehehehehe.

    I can't think of a good post title, but I'll be watching out for this new, regular feature. I may have to forward some of the doozies my BF sends me to you ;)

  4. first off: i rarely laugh out loud at stuff on the computer. but i did at (with? nah.) lionel. holy hilarious.
    as far as titles go, i'm no good at stuff like that. i mean, look at me...i just typed "holy hilarious." sure, it's got alliterative appeal, but, really, it's a perfect Exhibit A. great idea for a series, btw. if there's anything there like the lionel poster, i'm visiting your blog again. frequently.

  5. This is hilarious. Lionel - remember the video? He called the beautiful blind lady and sang "Hello! Is it me you're looking for?" Then hung up? My husband and I crack up over that one.

  6. Looking forward to the new posts! Here are a couple ideas;

    Just for Giggles
    Passing it On

    And thinking about this, I just kept hearing Aretha Franklin's "Sisters are Doin' It For Themselves." Perhaps too long to work as post title, so maybe just "Doin' It."

  7. How about -

    Can I Get a Witness?

    or

    Bahaha Moments

  8. Here's what comes to mind:

    - Hey sis! (calling all virtual sisters here)
    - Sis sends stuff
    - From my sista 2 U
    - My sister in cyber
    - Stuff sister shares
    (and with a nod to Lady Marmalade)
    - Where's all mah cyber sistas
    - Say sister go sister

    I'm going to stop my goofy brainstorming now. Looking forward to the s*it your sister sends.

  9. You're welcome to borrow my little brother's catch phase, whenever he's done passing along whatever random bit of ridiculousness: "Further Bulletins As They Warrant". He cracks me up, but I may be biased - or it could be his delivery in a mock serious Walter Conkrite voice...

  10. or...."That's What She Said".

  11. That's the coolest song ever- was one of my first songs in English that I loved ( even before I spoke English, ha ha). My teenage crush introduced me to that song and it stayed with me forever. As for the title, I am terrible with ideas, usually need help myself in that department,lol, so I'd leave it to more ingenious types to come up with ideas.;)

  12. Sisterly Shenanigans!

    Can't wait to read it!

  13. The Sunday Funnies!

    I usually end up being the one sending random silly stuff to all my friends... glad to see that other people find it funny too!

  14. I can't stop laughing at that picture!!!

    Here's my idea: sister to sister

    Have a great night!

  15. You've got mail.

    For your consideration.

  16. Haha...I have seen that on Pinterest. Freakin' hilarious. I don't know if the album cover you mention is the one I'm thinking of because my internet search feature is not working right now. But if it's the one of him stretched out on his side all awkward-like then yes, I know the one. Some friends of ours went camping/hiking with us not too long ago, and we spent pretty much the entire trip striking the Lionel pose all over the rocks, meadows, pretty much any picturesque moment.

    Anyway, I'm terrible at coming up with titles too but how about "Kicks n' Giggles" or "the best medicine"? Looking forward to this feature!

  17. That's freaking hilarious. Do you want to keep "sister" in the title? I can't think of a single title with sister that doesn't sound like some kind of porn (like "Sisterly fun").
    My alternatives:

    P.S. Please Forward
    or
    Laugh it Forward
    or
    Forwarding the Fun (Stuff)
