ReplyDeleteLeta is going around the house and renaming things so they all start with an "i" before Apple does it... such as her iToaster, her iToilet, and her iKids...
ReplyDeletecool!
I love this one. Absolutely love it.
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Thanks for sharing this!
ReplyDeleteDenise is retired... she was tired yesterday and she's tired again today.
ReplyDeletePossibly the greatest website EVER!
Thank you for sharing. My FB posts just got 100x stranger.
This is fantastic! Here's mine...
ReplyDeleteAmy doesn't sweat the petty things and doesn't pet the sweaty things.
I just linked to your starched fabric wall decal link. Very cool idea! Thank you.

Becky distrusts camels, and anyone else who can go a week without a drink.
ReplyDeleteThis is great! Thanks!
Ruth wonders if other dogs think poodles are members of a weird religious cult.
ReplyDeleteThis is so fab - and yes, I have just posted this onto my facebook page!

"Maja is Americas next Top Model"
ReplyDeleteYeah, thanx for that!
I have a few friends I could suggest this website to. They update their status every minute of the day trying to record every move (...is going home, is going to the gym, is tired). Can't stand it!!
ReplyDeleteCamby is a feminist. Isn't that cute!
ReplyDeleteVery funnny. This is my status ritght now:
ReplyDelete"Caroline thought that she was indecisive but now she's not so sure."
Thanks!
I just spent a decent amount of time on this site. i should have been working... but this was more fun!
ReplyDelete"Marisa is an onychotillomaniac."
ReplyDeleteAnd [gasp!] it's true! How did it know...?
Amy is the literary equivalent to a Big Mac and fries.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations. I love Big Macs. But that probably means you only use one syllable words or something.
ReplyDeleteErin isn't worried what people think. They don't do it very often.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe that website exists. HA HA.
Jess -
ReplyDeleteI think I love you!
Ha ha ha; thanks for the emotional lift after a day of yelling at the kids for yelling at each other.

Bek is reading other statuses but your status is important to her. Please stay online and your status will be read in priority sequence. Approximate wait time 17 min.
ReplyDeletehehehehe. This is very fun. I also liked the one that told me I didn't believe in reincarnation in my last life either. :)
oh, ps - My husband writes code for high-end laser printers, so I asked him if he could in fact set it to stun. :D
Thanks, I'll be his first customer.
ReplyDeleteJay is planning on living forever. So far, so good.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this ; )
my first one was the best:
ReplyDeleteClaudia is wondering if Chuck Norris is the reason why Waldo is hiding
Thanks for sharing!
ha! I love all those! And that website is amazing!!!
ReplyDeleteKim usually wakes up grumpy, but sometimes I just let him sleep.
So fun!!! :) Thanks for finding this time waster!!
I went through a bunch until I found the one I liked--so helpful. Like Ana, I hate those lame status updates. I don't care if you just changed your baby's diaper. I don't care if you want a nap. I don't care if the grocery store didn't have your favorite ice cream. Enough already! I should sent them all over here, but then my secret would be gone.
ReplyDeletethanks!
New follower of your blog. Love your stuff. But just FYI...the status generator generated what seemed to be a very partisan slam against the President.
ReplyDeleteCami is a feminist. Isn't that cute?
