Wow, my first “Hate” Comment!

I never really thought it would happen to me, but it did — a Hate Comment.  Wow, to ME –  little Jannie Funster, what a hoot.

I’m so flattered someone cared enough.   He even called me Grannie! 

His blast to me is – surprise – on my Armani Condom Heart post, comment  # 56, with my comment # 58 as reply.

Actually, I’ve been wanting to write a follow-up to that post to say that as your comments came in on that, those of you who suggested I could maybe have made it an “educable moment” with my daughter, I totally started to see your point, I really did.  That could’ve been one way to handle it.  Who knows, should a giant shamrock of green condoms at Nine West or a rogue K-Y Jelly Easter art display at Abercrombie & Fitch present themselves in the near future, I may just have a great chance to talk to my 7-year-old about what they’re used for.  Hey, she’s going to learn about these things sooner or later, why not sooner!  From nice well-known corporations to boot.  And please, I am not at all making fun of any of YOU with that statement – you guys I love, each and every one of you in your own special way.   Any of us who disagree on the Armani Condom Heart, I am glad we can do so and still be friends.  I am trying to point out how, in my opinion, some things are just not appropriate for children in a public place.   Period. 

But, gee,  gotta go now – time for my senility pill and a good lie down.  After all, I’ve been up for almost an hour.  You know how us old gals of almost 45 gotta get our Zzzzzzs.

Wait, did I already take my senility pill today?

Love, Grannie Jannie. 

Hey, that’s got a great ring to it!!  Grannie Jannie.  Maybe even a new song in there somewhere!

And you know what else just occured to me — disrespect for us elderly in our society, that’s something else that really fires me up, as well as disrespect for children.  But that’ll be another post, my dear friends.

Now where’s my Geritol, before I take that nap.
