Stuff I Stumbled Upon News Update

4 Feb

This site has a large number of posts, most of which people never see—cause the site is just really big and getting bigger everyday.  So I’m working on a “random post” button—so you can find funny stuff in the archives.  In addition I’ll be redoing the theme and updating the links—don’t worry the background and orange buttons will stay the same.  God knows when the update will actually happen—but its in the works.

Questions for Matisse

15 Aug

April from Arizona writes:

Dear Matisse,

I have long suspected that your name isn’t Matisse and that you write under a fake name.  You sound a lot like Iliza Shlesinger who hosts that dating show Excused.  She has a lot of one liners that sound like something you’d say.

Sincerely,

April

Dear Worst Month of the Year,

I promise I’m not Iliza Shlesinger—mainly because I can write something funny without doing 200+ takes to get it right (see the credits of Excused to understand what I mean).  Also I’m a 100% Swedish and closest thing to German in me, is when one of my fraternity brothers stuck a bratwurst up my butt my sophomore year of college—so next time aim for someone with a Swedish name at least.

Sincerely,

 

Matisse

Guess Who

14 Aug

So I’m driving home from a hellish trip in DC, which resulted in my wife landing in the hospital.  So posting will resume tomorrow.  Don’t worry I’m paying the price for not thinking ahead and having things ready—I’m being forced to listen to Taylor Swift all the way back home to York (seriously, I believe this makes my wife a war criminal under the Geneva Convention).

Emergency Room

14 Jun

Looks like I’m going to the emergency room (and yes I took the time to blog that fact) so I might be a little late posting in the morning– or not, we’ll see.

Power Outage and Internet Outage

7 May

First the power went out, then some poles outside snapped—I learned those were the internet ones.

Marilou 60 thoughts a second album cover art StuffIStumbledUpon

Used my Nook—read quite a bit, and with the power out the glow light Nook would’ve come in handy.  Listened to music: Marilou – “What if I Listened?” and “Wake Me Up on Friday” were my faves.

The Road So Far

3 Apr

Overall the site hasn’t even been up a year– and we are just a shy bit away from reaching 120,000 views.  Granted, this might not sound like much– but considering this site is a hobby and all, it’s pretty damn good.  Last month was Stuff I Stumbled Upon’s best month yet, with over 30,000 views.

To think, as a kid my teachers said my smart mouth wasn’t going to do me a lick of good in life– I showed them.

Sorry For the Lack of Posts

24 Mar

It’s been crazy lately—living in York, PA has taught me that even though I now live in a somewhat modern city—the internet here is more akin to two tin cans and some string in terms of reliably.  With the popularity of the site growing and growing, I need to make some adjusts to speed it up even more, so expect the postings over the next few days to be scattered until I get some things straightened out.
