I'm a Blogger/Vlogger Damnit and I have FINALLY Arrived!!!

I love blogging and vlogging my way through life. I love making people laugh and I've made some great friends along the way. I've never TRULY pissed anyone off. Although, yesterday my quote about insane asylums and motherhood didn't hit well with some of my favorite loyal readers (sorry guys - it was written in jest!). Today I woke up to an inbox of emails from YouTube comments on one of the restaurant reviews I vlogged last winter. Hideous, mean, and really quite awful comments.

Let me just say that I have made the video private because the review was really not that bad and I don't want to attract negative attention to a restaurant that doesn't deserve it. I wish I could keep it public because this could have been my moment. You know, the moment that boosts my traffic beyond belief and turns me into a bloggy star hated by many and followed my millions?

Since many of you won't have seen the video, I'll just say that I had terrible service at a restaurant that I happened to be vlogging from. It was intended to be a family outing vlog and it turned into a comedy of errors on the part of the restaurant staff... so I went with it. And the server was never on video (the manager did make a small appearance when he handed me my meal and has since been blurred out).

BY POPULAR DEMAND... I have edited the restaurant name out of the video and am posting it here just for you. Please feel free to call me fat ... it is so motivating that I think I've already lost three pounds today.

So, I thought I'd post some of the comments here so you could see them and rally around me or hate on me and we can pretend I'm really controversial and all! And I have to say THANKS a million to the trolls who picked this up and brought so much traffic to me!

good thing you reproduced cause you suck! did you knit that sweater yourself that your daughter/son was wearing??? (why thank you, but I'm not quite that talented.)

have you ever worked in a restaurant (why, YES I have) cause im pretty sure if you have you would never smell a discount and you would appreciate wait staff which you obviously don't cause they work their asses off!!! (hmmmm, there was a full staff of servers in this restaurant with perhaps four tables seated and I had HORRIBLE service) if you know what work means (work .. hmm that must be that thing I do so that I can afford to PAY you to serve me properly) . this video just brings to reality how ridiculous costumers can be in the serving industry. i would like to see you work as a server for one day and deal with the shit servers have to and then get put on youtube for it. (Bring it on honey, I'll serve circles around you with a smile on my face. I'm good on camera that way ;))

i hope your kids work as servers one day and have to deal with people like you!!! (me too! It was one of the best life lessons ever and I was smart enough to work my ass off and make lots of money to pay for school so that I hopefully never have to do it again! Now Bar-tending? THAT I could probably never do - people would wonder why half their drink was gone before it got to them...)

p.s. this is the 4th person to see this video tonight (WOOT, visit my blog and comment PLEASE?), and only a cunt like you would order a salad at a mexican restaurant (Must be lots of us around since I'm pretty sure it was on the MENU). Plus you are a total bitch and i hope your children don't end up as servers for a restaurant but as the garbage people who pick out the dumpsters in the back 3 times a week. you should probably just go on the meth diet anyways and stop eating at restaurants because you look at least 40 pounds over a normal female's weight. (actually 10 but thanks for the motivation. I think I'll pass on the meth, though.)

p.s. head chef says: "Fuck you" (why thank you sir, glad you can take criticism so well - and I'm sure we'll all be so comfortable dining in your establishment -YOU just put this place at the bottom of my dining list.)

Im with Seanruinslives, BITCH!! You can really tell a lot about a person when she takes it upon herself to bring a camera into a restaurant (which I'm sure didn't make your server uncomfortable at all while they were trying to do their fucking JOB) and thinks that anyone gives a flying fuck about her opinion. (Never filmed the server and haven't you heard? MOM'S opinion RULES, asshole!) Im sure if someone came into your job (if you have one) and decided to critique every fucking step you take on camera, your performance wouldn't be affected at all. (I could actually use the help, email me if you are a PR pro, I'm in way over my head) Here's an idea- if you

really feel that its necessary to drag your fat ass off the couch and stuff your face in public, you could at least do your poor children the honor of giving them the attention of their fucking mother. (If you could use the F word a little less frequently I might actually take you seriously and start paying attention to my children -- that would probably piss them off though...) If your parenting skills are anything like your cinematography, I would start saving for your kids' therapy (that is if they don't slit their wrists or overdose on meth (meth again, hmmm I'm sensing a theme) before you realize how fucking worthless you are as a mother). Have you ever considered, that maybe the reason this "happens to

[you] all the time" is because you have a shitty attitude? If someone talks down to you and has a smug little comment for every LITTLE fucking thing you do, would you treat them as well as you would treat people who understand you don't ENJOY serving pretentious housewives who fill their meaningless existence with pointless hobbies like online-video-blog-restaurant-evaluations, they do it to pay the bills. So get a life, get some respect for those around you, or just get a gun and shoot yourself (well now, my meaningless existence is really fun, so I don't think I'll go shooting myself anytime soon.)

ok lets get this straight A) you want a salad without dressing, but when you dont get what you want its not a polite question to the waiter, its a fuck you?? (uh, I don't usually use the F word so you must be hard of hearing) lady do you know who has control over your food? B) Cinnamon is a spice you dumb fuck. (so is posh) C) you want women's rights well congrats you got it, you have the right to ask for a pen like everyone else does. i can see that second missing beer on your ass. Just try going to another restaurant, you just went public, welcome to the network bitch. (well, there is a good way to promote your industry... and thanks again for the motivation. By not eating out anymore I'll be able to get the second missing beer off my ass. Phew... if I'd known it was that easy I'd have pissed off a troll a long time ago!)

You do realize that if this video gets back to the manager, you have cost that server his job? (Uh since the manager was the only one that even remotely appeared (his hand mostly) I'm pretty sure that won't happen... he was aware of the problem) Was the service so crappy that you feel the need to help this man to unemployment in this economy? I often have to modify food ordered at restaurants to fit my fitness training and nutritional needs and I have never had an issue. (you must not eat out much) If you consistently have a problem with poor service, it may be that you are blaming the wrong party. (hmmm blame Canada?)

are you kidding me?! if I had to deal with your family I would want to get out of there too! Your horrible and overcritical. You said you've been to XXXX before, well if you don't like it don't go back! (uh, I said that we eat there often because we've never had a bad experience... listen much?) Nobody wants customers like you. Maybe you didn't get an extra beer because the server realized your with your kids, do you need to get drunk at 4 in the afternoon?? (hmm two beers at 4pm, will that get me a 28 day vacation in rehab? ...because if so, I might just own it) alcoholism. by the way did you ask the management if its okay for you to video tape and post this?? (nope ... didn't realize it was going to be a disaster worth posting)

I think this is awesome! (aww thanks!) I'm sorry to all the negative commentors out there but damn. When you order food, you should damn well get it the way you want it! I worked in restaurants for over 15 years and I don't see a thing wrong with this video. Before giving the bill, you ask if there is anything else the customer wants, obviously the family wasn't finished. If the server can't do the job that they're paid to do, then they should be looking for work in another industry. Bad Economy of Not!

There ya have it folks!! My stats have sucked this summer and I could really use the excitement so go ahead and let me have it. I will have you know I've lost 5 lbs so my ass is a little more defensible now....
