Cotton Candy Girl
While procrastinating starting to write my Family Law take home I decided checking my sitemeter would be a welcome distraction. I always check out links I don't recognize, or didn't know had linked to me. So, when I came across this (I'm hesitant to even link since I'm pretty sure I get more hits daily but whatever) I simply had to check it out...Ohh, by the way, you're welcome for the traffic boost Cotton Candy.
I suppose I've finally made it if I finally have a critic. I suppose it was nice of her to say I'm not dumb, being that I'm a certified genius and all. However, it is kinda funny how she points out that not all "Cotton Candy Girls" are stupid" while referencing ME, and then calls me a Stupid B*tch 3 sentences later. Apparently, there are not so sharp non-cotton candy girls as well.
What the hell does it matter if I color code my outline tabs? It's helpful for me during my exam. I'm so sorry it offended you that greatly. I'm also sorry that I had to drink copious amounts of caffeine to stay up all night and write my take home exam. I know you must have been worried about my well being and that is why you were so upset that I drank so much Starbucks.
Side Rant: People who think Starbucks is all that is wrong with the world. Yeah, an employer who provides benefits to their employees who work 20 hours a week, uses fair trade coffee and pays their employees a fair wage really is the root of all evil. These people should really get a clue and check out the working conditions that most of American deals with before they throw a fit about Starbucks. Have you ever heard of a little chain called Wal-Mart? Additionally, Starbucks makes d*mn good coffee. End of discussion.
Do I own a few Coach bags? Yes. Louis Vuitton? No (they're too expensive and not that cute). Are my hands manicured? Yes, I have to look at them as I type at school and work all day so I might as well look at something nice. While I understand your frustration with overly done-up girls, Cotton Candy, in the end you just come off like a girl who is bitter and jaded because your boyfriend left you for a girl with nicely manicured hands and expensive bags. Ohh, and by the way, nice template.

I never witnessed a blog war before...
you know, she seems a smidge hostile. i do not quite see the reason for the random hostility, being quite honest. a massage would do her good, no?
i was gonna say that to her, but her blog doesnt allow non-blogger users to comment. lucky you! now the comment is all for you ;).

ps. I too enjoy a good pink template
This seems incredibly unfair, after all I have the same colour template as you and it was definately the nicest.
Also Starbucks totally rules I just wish it was a tad cheaper!
And now she's picking on your little sister. I only regret that I clicked over to see her blog and increased her site meter.
Ehh, most of my readers picked on Legally Brunette too...But to be fair, she spelled psychology wrong multiple times and it's part of her major.
Don't worry about increasing her sitemeter, it's not like it'll be permanent and then she'll always remember those few days when she had a bunch of traffic because of me.
PS-I do feel bad that Legally Brunette most likely got called out as a result of my post regarding her though, that kinda sucks. But she doesn't have a site meter so I doubt she'll find it.
She should be studying for the LSAT's anyway.
10 bucks says some guy just dumped her for a girl who carries a Coach purse.
My only regret is that I increased her sitemeter by clicking back to it several times so that I could post about her absurdity myself.
Yeah, someone once posted about me that I was unfunny and "desparate"...but at least I can spell.
I have no idea what that chick's issue is since I didn't bother to read her crappy blog, but she seems to be trying to tell men to stay away from a certain type of girl when the girls they really need to stay away from are heinous, bitter, crazy-ass bitches like her.
Also, seriously...if you're going to call someone out -- do it without typos (that obviously doesn't go for me if there are any in this comment :) ). To wit:
"She must be really obsessed with herself checking her sitemeter constantly."
"Not at cotton candy girls are stupid."
And, just in case she actually thinks she's fooling anyone, we're all to remember that "The thing is, I'm not jealous of cute girls. I'm just sick of them. I'm tired of smart girls dumbing themselves down on purpose, and I'm tired of men who fall for that crap."
I mean, wow...it's like she's channeling Reese Witherspoon ragging on Jessica Simpson. *Oh* to have an original thought. And then to have that thought actually make sense in the context in which it is being applied. A pipe dream no doubt. I mean, did I miss the part of your blog where you posted your mission statement as being "acting stupid to attract men to my ANONYMOUS BLOG where I WON'T BE MEETING ANYONE ANYWAY and it does me absolutely no good at all to mask myself in idiocy but I'm totally going to do it anyway because it just seems like a good way to waste a few hours every damn day"?
Wow. That's some seriously judgmental candy over there.
I own a Coach purse. It was a gift from my mom while I was in law school. She simply wanted me to have a small purse of good quality to carry to job interviews. Really not a status symbol, really not meant to be noticed for itself; just one small part of an overall look intended to exude professionalism. Plus quality leather holds up well over the years, and a classic accessory can last you a long time. Certainly does not make me a "cotton candy girl," whatever the f that is.
Elle's blog is clever. And funny. Nothing dumbed down here.
- Yeah... It's almost like she jumped to conclusions and gave you a stupid award.
- You poor thing.
Yeah, except that YOU sent me an e-mail in which you called me funny for a girl and then a friend of mine and I read your blog to see if you really were sexist. Additionally, you seem to pride yourself on the pureness of your masculinity, I prefer not to be called a dumb blonde.
I agree with Sadielady. I have manicured nails (okay, I need a fill right now, but that is a whole other story) and own a couple Coach purses - one in black and one in brown. However, I am not a brainless, ditzy "cotton candy girl." What it does make me is an associate attorney at a well-respected mid-size law firm who wants to look her best when meeting with clients and colleagues. Yep - that's right...not only do I care about my appearance, but I also graduated from law school and passed the bar.
Furthermore, Coach purses rock - not for the name, but for the quality as well as the service. They last forever and are completely timeless....and if your pen explodes in your bag, they send you a new bag....free.
See, I don't even have "manicured nails" I have my own nails which grow to a reasonable length and which I paint a couples times a week and soak/trim my cuticles once a week. Ok, I also carry around my favorite hand cream and cuticle oil in my bag so I put them on, but I really just like having soft hands.
I never called you a dumb anything. I said that you were funny and that you were a woman.
You just kind of jumped at an opportunity for victimhood.
