Go Ahead… Delurk or Somethin'

Delurking DaySo. I heard it through the grapevine (via Greeblemonkey via Rude Cactus) that today is Delurking Day.

Now.

I know people are coming by. And I have a handful of long-suffering commenters who put their 2 cents in {big squeeze}…

But MOST people do not.

To be honest, I hardly ever leave comments.

Because my comments are a snore-fest.

IMHO.

I shouldn’t let that stop me, though. I know how nice it feels to receive a comment – regardless of depth or wit. A comment just feels a lot like love. Unless it’s mean, then it feels a lot like not love.

I know many bloggers leave questions at the end of their posts in order to help engage their people.

I’ve tried, but those posts seem to get the fewest comments.

So, instead I ditch that and just blather about me… the beginning, the middle and the end.

Me.

Where am I going with this?

*slaps cheeks*

If you are daring enough, or have time enough… I invite you to delurk. Leave a comment!

If you don’t know what to say, but are up for the delurking challenge… just write SHAZAM.

or *fist bump*

Or SHULTZ.

That’s what we’ve (my fam) been saying when we burp lately. So, I guess if everyone wrote “SHULTZ” would the last person to comment be the person who gets a punch in the arm? I wonder how to do that on the interwebz…

P.S. Dear mercy I am exhausted.

Keep up on the ridiculous, the insightful, the always digressive…

    Shazam makes me think of Saturday morning cartoons which makes me think of this: Wonder twin powers activate. Shape of delurking. Form of an ice pitcher, wait that makes no sense Ok. Pretty sure you wish I was still just lurking. :-)

  14. I seriously bet others do not find your comments a snorefest.

    SHAZAM!

    Enjoy, dah-link! ;)

  20. Andrea says:

    Not ONLY am I leaving you a comment–but I POSTED you (is that the right term) on my Blog as well! I hope you can handle all the extra traffic yer gonna git!
    :-)

  21. I would comment more, but then you might think I’m stalking you or something.

    And really, I’m not.

    Oh, you look really pretty in that shirt.

    Not stalking.

    And for the record, even boring comments are appreciated. Lets *some of us* know that someone is reading. Especially the narcissists among us. But not me. Just tell me I look pretty….

  22. Crystal says:

    Hello – I think this might be the first time I’ve commented but I’m always here reading :)

  23. jubilee says:

    Hope your Delurking Day has been filled with glitter and Oreos . . . <3

  24. wendy hagen says:

    Whatever snore fest comments. Just admit it “YOU NEVER LEARNED TO READ!”
    Love you.

  25. Leslie says:

    Hi, another non commented here. Love the blog, you make me smile again and again. (and I read your post about hiding in the garage whilst hiding from my kids in the bathroom. Hollah!!)

  26. Michelle W says:

    What about those of us who comment ON EVERYTHING? *looks in mirror*.
    Do I re- lurk?
    Whoops- too late!

  27. Crystal says:

    Sometimes lurking. Sometimes not. Just not so clever. I don’t have glitter. Or quick wit. But your posts are *always* full of funny sometimes true vulnerable honesty and uplifting despite need of sleep or coffee.

    So, whoooo saaaawwwww.

    And a ((hug)) :)
