It’s Audience Participation Day – Get On Over Here!

Posted by admin in reader participation, why not? make me laugh, word games on 03 18th, 2009 | no comments

I’ve decided to merge together a couple of cool bloggy trends that I’ve seen around recently because I think they’re uh, cool and because I’m so in the mood for a little audience participation.

Oh yeah, and I hope to get a few chuckles out of it all ’cause I’m selfish like that.

Kel over at Girl in the Glasses has me addicted to her whacked-out Wednesdays where she poses a couple of scenarios under the title “Would you Rather…?” And then she forces you to answer in her comments or she threatens to hurt you. Yeah, she’s so harsh but we all listen. I think it’s because she freaks us out and we definitely do NOT want to run into her in a dark alley.

One of her scenarios today is “Would you rather dance the horizontal mambo with the Creepy Burger King guy or Ronald McDonald?”

Ewwwww, right? Well, Kel even has visual aids so head on over there but be prepared to answer.

Seriously. She’s watching.

And then the other day I was checking out Heather over at The Extraordinary Ordinary and she had this thing going on where she presented her readers with a quick question as an either/or choice like “Summer or Winter.”

And then the first commenter would answer – “Summer” (or whatever) and then that commenter had to come up with a new choice (i.e. Desert or Ocean) that the next commenter would answer and so on and so on….

Do you get it? Or is so late when I’m writing this that you are all confused?

Well, I wanted to merge these two cool trends (I’m not sure why I’m calling them trends, just deal with it please) and just see what happens on this Wednesday.

But it’s only gonna work if you all get in on the action, okay? Throw caution to the wind and have some fun. Why the hell not?

So…I’m gonna pose a question that is a cross between the two trends and the first commenter will answer my question and then think one up to leave in the comment box and then the next commenter will pick it up from there.

It can be a two-worded deal like Heather’s or a whacked “Would You Rather…?” like Kel’s or a cross between the two…

Here we go:

In your next life (if you had a next life) would you rather come back as a high-powered, influential woman in politics like Nancy Pelosi, Condoleeza Rice or Hillary Clinton or would you rather be a Latina chick with a smokin’ bod who could strut her stuff in high heels and boogie like there’s no tomorrow as a back-up dancer for like Ricky Martin or Justin Timberlake?

about us

Moms without Blogs is basically me, Lee, who wonders every single day how in the hell am I going to find the time to write a blog post? I\'m a mom to three kids (ages 9, 7, and 4) who are insanely gorgeous, insanely active, insanely demanding, insanely life-affirming and who have almost driven me insane. In good and bad ways. I work as a producer in reality television, I fold all kinds of laundry, I am picky about how my dishwasher is loaded, I yell entirely too much at my kids, I like desert skies and how my skin feels after a dip in the ocean, I married my soul mate even though I don\'t believe in soul mates really, I believe that laughing \'til it hurts is where it\'s at, I\'m a sucker for putting little treats into the bowls of our three dogs each night, I love driving my 1974 orange convertible Karmann Ghia, I write when inspiration strikes, and summer is my season. And if you\'re a mom without a blog, literally or figuratively, then I\'d probably like to hang out with you. Thanks for reading.
