Happy…whatever day it is, Crasstalkers! It was a quietish week here, but I have your roundup of the week’s posts and Comment of the Week — I’m just a bit behind schedule. First, though, let’s conduct some business. As usual, your weekly PSA: If you wish to nominate a comment or comments for Comment of the Week (COW), please take a screenshot of your nomination and email it to me: crasstalkcow at gmail. If it’s several comments long, it’s okay to only send me a screenshot of the first comment or two, but! *puts on broken record* Always remember to tell me what post or OT the comment comes from. Now, the next piece of business:
Since it seems to be a struggle every week to motivate you to send nominations, and since it came up in the COW post a couple of weeks ago, we’re going to switch things up a little. I still urge you to send me those comments by your fellow commenters that you feel merit a nomination, but from now on please also consider sending me what you consider to be your strongest comment of the week. What comment of yours did people fonz to high heaven? What comment of yours did you think was brillz but sadly got overlooked because nobody understands you like Glinda understands you? What comments of yours sparked the most discussion? Send them to me!
The same parameters will still apply. I will continue to write this post using only what is sent to me (with some rare exceptions). I will consider everything sent to me, but ultimately the decision is up to me: you may think it’s a great comment, I may think it’s full of stank. So stop whining when not all of your precious nominations make it into the post. Okay! Put on your lip gloss and send me your best bon mots, bitches.
