Fondant Icing

Posted By on March 22, 2009

First off, I would like to say thank you to each and every one of you who read my last post and commented. I am lucky to have such awesome readers and ones that will calm my fears and let me know that this whole house delay thing is all normal and that I will be JUST FINE. It honestly made me feel so much better to know that this has happened to some of you and that these delays are nothing out of the ordinary. Even if my mom is all “I told you it would be fine. Why did you have to ask the internet?”

I actually had dinner with my realtor last Thursday and she’s been talking to my Lender Guy as well and she’s not concerned. She thinks we’ll still close this Thursday (HOLY SHIT! I HAVE DONE NOTHING!) and that everything will go as planned. Maybe I should like do things I’m supposed to in preparation for that. That is, if I knew what I was supposed to do in preparation for that. I assume they will want some money.

So thank you, all of you, again for your comments and being so supportive. I will definitely keep you posted this week when I (hopefully) will be signing a lot of papers! SQUEEEEE!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I know my posting has been pretty sparse lately. Real life seems to be getting in the way, what with vacations and travel and being sick and sleeping for 18 hours in one day. And I’m OK with real life getting in the way. I mean, maybe that means I will be out and about and happen to run into Mr. Right and will have a date some time this decade. So far, all that has happened in real life is plenty of drinking. Which, I’m also OK with.

Which is basically me saying “I’ve been busy and my life is so boring even Bacon can’t spice it up and make it interesting.” I promise, I’ll keep making myself write so that eventually I have something of interest to say.

Otherwise, I will have to talk about acid reflux. Because it’s been awhile since we discussed that topic in depth.

So I got this comment on my blog this weekend:

comment

And as soon as I saw it in my inbox, I knew it was a spam comment. I mean, I’m pretty sure no one is mean enough to name their kid Fondant Icing Recipes. That’s just cruel.

And since it escaped the spam filter, I actually read it to see what they said. I mean, maybe Fondant Icing Recipes really likes my site. And he was logged in to WordPress on his Fondant Icing Recipes blog and forgot to change the information in the comment box when he commented over here. It could happen.

But then I saw what he said. And then I got mad! How dare you, Icing Guy, insinuate that I plagiarized! This is ALL MY WRITINGS! All these words of drivel are ALL MINE!

What the fuck is up with spam commenters getting a little judgey and accusatory? And especially on this post, where Icing Guy commented, which isn’t even a post that I want to claim that I wrote, since it is so bad. I mean, I talked about my cat Twittering for Christ’s sake. If you’re going to ask my if it is my own writing, at least ask me on a good post.

So because of that, I’m going to list Frosting Guy’s email address in this post, in only the hopes that he’ll get spammed to hell and think twice about leaving douchey spam comments. What happened to just talking about penis enlargements or sex videos like good spambots do?

Calling all Spambots, please spam Frosting Guy at fondantf@FondantFrosting.com. If that’s his real email address.

And really, why would that comment even make me even remotely interested in reading your Fondant Icing Recipes site? Also, what the hell is Fondant Frosting? Please don’t let it be some euphemism for some sort of dirty sex tape.

    I’ve been getting some of those weird comments on my blog too. WTF? I wonder how I popped up on their radar.
    Keep talking! We are listening. even if it is sparse 🙂

    Sadly, I know what fondant frosting is, because I watch entirely too much Ace of Cakes.

    (And signing papers? This week??? SQUEEEE is right!)

    It is impressive that you’ve been able to blog with everything else that has been going on. Fingers crossed for you! And yes, unfortunately I am all too well acquainted with fondant frosting..the kind you eat, not the spam commenter…my sister in law is a pastry chef!

  4. Fondant frosting is that really smooth thick frosting that’s like a sheet of sugar. You know, the stuff that is utterly smooth and textureless.

    And how did you get that image of the spambot’s comment?

    My fave part is that you gave ‘very nice information’. About … cats. And late bedtimes. You crazy plagiarist!

    Just recently started reading you, love it! Good luck with the settlement.

  6. Rhi says:

    Now I just really want a cupcake.

  7. Christina says:

    Wow in just a few days you will own a condo!!! Seriously, it is exciting and it will work out.

    BTW…Fondant guy=creepy!

    Christinas last blog post..another reason why

  8. Darcey says:

    Yeah, I’m with Rhi, I want a cupcake. Sadly, I just had one. And now I want another. But that goes against the whole “cutting back on sugar” thing that my dentist and I talked about this morning when I was given a printed schedule that included over $3k of dental work – after the insurance company picked up their part of the tab. WTF?!?!?!

    Oy.

    Anyway. Yes, I also believe that everything is going to be a-ok with the condo-paper-signing (I accidentally typed “condom” there first before I erased it… sorry if you get additional penis enlargement spam now for admitting to it).

    Yeah, I need to lay off the sugar.
