I quit Dooce long ago….Bossy is my drug of choice now….Bossy gives lots of love…. and frankly Bossy is far more creative than the navel gazing Heather!
Bossy is the anti-Dooce. It reminds me of college when I tried to get the cool kids to like me and then realized that I could get more love from the kids at the misfit table with all the pretty colors and open comments on their blog. Or something like that.
You have OUT DONE yourself!! I sit humbly at your feet. I love XTC. And Imovies. And adorable women with adorable great danes. Add this to the Bossy Shrine of Goodness!!
Hahaha – I was just searching the Dooce website earlier to figure out how to respond to her posts. WTF!?! Heather says if you write her hate email, she reserves the right to post it on her blog. If your video love doesn’t work, try I HATE YOU! 🙂
I love me some Dooce.
But I have to admit I also love me some Bossy. And since Bossy lives in the same state (county, school district, whatever) I kinda have to go with her. There’s enough room in my heart for all y’all, though.
But I also want a Dane very badly. Maybe she thinks you are stalking her? Or the Mormons got to her again?
Bossy, I totally heart you. No worries, I don’t think Dooce emails anyone very often. Course, I got one once and I’ve saved it, so I’m not sure what that makes me.
Awesome! I used to read “the other one” daily, but now it’s just occasionally on the weekend. You, on the other hand? I read EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. without fail! If you don’t post, I’m sad!
…I was just thinking today, “What if someday my 5 1/2 year old son meets Leta….”, and “oh, isn’t it odd that people will know who Leta Armstrong is as she grows up….”.
Yes yes Bossy’s arms are great, as well as everything else they’re attached to…but do you have the inside of your nostrils derma planed? or was that photoshopped?
Why can’t we all just get along? I love both of you. For those around since back in the day when dooce had open comments, it often ended up being a clusterfuck (can I say that on here?). She is a lovely and talented lady, just like our Bossy.
I clicked over here from PunditMoms sight – after seeing your lovely face all around the blogosphere, and feeling an immediate kinship with you over the comments blogher gals made about how tall you are (tall ladies unite!) but somehow I resisted clicking to your site until now. Very funny. And I have to say I don’t get why Dooce gets all the love. She’s interesting to read, sure, but so are oh so, so, so many other bloggers who don’t get the same adoration and ad revenue. Whatever. You are a hoot. Thanks for the smile today.
Maybe Dooce is just being overwhelmed by houseguests who forced her to spend FOUR hours in a Wal-Mart (of ALL places in the world) and just can’t quite get to her email even though she really wants to. Oh. Yeah. That’s me. But I’m sure she’s just really busy – ‘cuz who wouldn’t love you?!
Sheesh, people, stop being such haters. I love Bossy, I want to have her love child, so we can run off and gay marry each other. But I love Dooce too, why must we pick sides. Why must we be so cruel? Women being mean to other women. I want a blogosphere of love and understanding. Empathy. Is that so wrong?
Bossy! Now a video tribute to yourself? I would get that. You sell yourself short, woman. I think Dooce is a good writer, just like lots of other blogs out there. She happened to win the blogging lottery and me thinks she’s on something of a pedestal.
Sigh.
Is the blogosphere really Sweet Valley High? If it is, I guess I’m with the band geeks. But then I hear great things about band camp.
its funny – I have noticed that BOSSY seems to be appearing in the comments section of a lot of high-profile bloggers all of a sudden, and also linking to them.
Its as if BOSSY went to some blogger seminar that told her how to increase traffic by leeching off more popular bloggers?
ANAON, what difference does it make? Blogging is work and if you are able to drive traffic by what you call “leeching” then so be it… Please don’t act so above it all!
Ah…all the uproar about a comment section, funny to me, cause my reader(s) never leave comments…
BUT, you did Bossy, you left me a comment and you made my day. I feel like the new kid at school, and the popular guy (ya, I know you’re a girl 🙂 ) said “hi” to me.
Bossy, we would never treat you like a snowman over at Suburban Kamikaze, where due to our frequent use of gratuitous sexual innuendo we now have a small but cultishly devoted audience of daddy bloggers and the author’s best friends.
Did we not attempt to cook the entire contents of our refrigerators at your suggestion? (Okay, we did not, but we really, seriously considered it.)
I am sure Dooce is thinking, “Ummm, this is exactly why I don’t allow comments on my blog.” What’s it with all the picking of sides? There are sides? When did this line of thinking start? Around 89 comments ago? Weird. I love Bossy too, but she and Dooce aren’t in the fighting ring. Just running along beside each other in a field of Daisies. Bossy just wants her some love is all.
Bossy is a fine foxy mama all the way live like none other. If not then, you know, we got to set up the female mud wrestling pen. Yeah, get these babes on it. I got the beer (not for 103 comments) but I got some beer. We need to call a Bossy / Dooce mud thing for keeps. Otherwise, I’ll be hunkering down preparing for this next hurricane that might knock us into next week. Remember, Katrina passed directly over my house and killed my tractor and barn. I miss my tractor. It was old, smelly and did what I wanted. This new John Deere has too many buttons and switches. Shit, it ain’t the same. I even look all wrong in green and yellow. It ain’t who you are, it’s how you look.
hahahahhahahahaha. fantastic! so i’m not the only dooce stalker? that’s at least how she makes me feel when she never returns an email. boo hoo. and i even live in the same valley as her!
Why so much hate, ladies? One of the best parts of being a person of intelligence is the ability to hold two conflicting ideas in your head (and heart) at the same time.
There’s enough love for Heather and Bossy.
Also, if I ran a blog with millions of unique hits a month, I would not want every troll and their mother to leave me a comment. No to mention the bandwidth required to host such a thing. A logistical nightmare. Besides, many of us have read her very funny posts with some of the emails she gets. Her responses are often riotous. But I am always surprised at how deeply personal and offensive the emails themselves are.
People in the blogosphere give themselves permission to be meaner in email and comments than they would ever dare IRL.
You are my BOSSY.
My only BOSSY.
You make me happy, when skies are gray.
You’ll never know, BOSSY
How much I love you (and your dog).
Please don’t take my BOSSY away.
lol Brilliant! Be careful Dooce might come over and kiss your cheek and since you are so cold from her abandonment her kiss might stick on your cheek and she will stay fixated as we are to you! Of course you warm our hearts and funny bones!
i thought this was the funniest thing i’ve ever seen here (although, originally you won me over with the broccoli bugs…yeah, i’m relatively new to these parts) and i totally don’t get why some people don’t get it.
it’s scary how many people there are out there who are eager to spread hostility.
ris likes dooce but loves bossy. and bossy’s son is way hotter than dooce’s, uh, oh wait dooce doesn’t have a hot son, or the awesome comedic timing that seems to come so naturally to bossy. love it!
Okay – the pill box on the dog’s snout nearly did me in. That’s an homage if I ever saw one, Ms. G.
And part of me expected to scroll down this page and see, “I’m Heather B. Armstrong, and this is my comment.” It would have been a tender moment indeed.
(i’ve rocking out to xtc these past few days. must be channeling bossy. your art directorial quality is higher than mine. concepts, too. eh. now i need to make a video professing my love for bossy? fine. done.)
Well, damn! I wish I had watch this when you first posted it. I’ve been so busy that I’ve been lazy with my reading. Nice job using something from English Settlement. 🙂
Lurker here-I’m with you Bossy. I was intrigued by this “dooce” you all speak of, and a while ago, tried to see what the hype is all about. I read and read…and nothing. Just never did it for me. I just don’t get what her big deal is. Seriously-there are much more taleneted folk out there (yourself included!)
I’ve been reading dooce for (GOD) almost 5 years now…. and have yet to receive a response to any of my emails. Not that I blame her… I’m just a blah person in a sea of hate mail…. but I feel your pain. Really, I do.
srah says
September 19, 2007 at 6:39 amWhat’s the song?
Nancy says
September 19, 2007 at 6:45 amOMG!!!
Hilarious … if the Devine Ms Dooce (Dude, lol .. got it) doesn’t acknowledge Bossy after this homage, I boycott her, Chuck, Jon, and Princess Leta!
I don’t recognize the song … an original? Your husband?
Bossy’s Dane is as equally talented as Chuck …. can we see some spaghetti though?
Melissa in NZ says
September 19, 2007 at 7:03 amBOSSY. Is. HILARIOUS! I hope she gets her some Dooce today … if this don’t do it, nothing will!
marha says
September 19, 2007 at 7:05 amSnowman, by XTC. Awesome song. Awesome post.
Avitable says
September 19, 2007 at 8:00 amAny blog that won’t even accept comments isn’t a blog. It’s just a pile of shit.

Nap Warden says

Mary Alice says

Mary Alice says
September 19, 2007 at 8:18 amP.S. Also I suspect Bossy is much smarter….and smart is HOT… but smart, funny AND creative? Now that’s smokin’ hot!
jackie says
September 19, 2007 at 8:20 amGod, you kill me. Hilarious!!!! (I added the extra explanation points just for Dooce’s sake)
Noelle says
September 19, 2007 at 8:24 amBossy is the anti-Dooce. It reminds me of college when I tried to get the cool kids to like me and then realized that I could get more love from the kids at the misfit table with all the pretty colors and open comments on their blog. Or something like that.
Noelle says
September 19, 2007 at 8:25 amI said college but I meant high school. That’s where all my social awkwardness manifested.
LionAndMagicBoy says
September 19, 2007 at 8:53 amBrilliant.
What’s Dooce?
Mrs. Chicken says
September 19, 2007 at 8:56 amBossy as performance artist. I am officially in love with you.
Suebob says
September 19, 2007 at 9:08 amBossy…multimedia star.
Miss Britt says
September 19, 2007 at 9:16 amIs your relationship with Dooce like my relationship with you?
You know…
I love, love, love your blog and every post is like magic.
And yet… I hate, hate, hate myself (and by extension you) every time I read a post and think “WTF?!? Why didn’t I think of that?!?! Shit!”
… like that?
Evolving? says
September 19, 2007 at 9:26 amDear Bossy,
You have OUT DONE yourself!! I sit humbly at your feet. I love XTC. And Imovies. And adorable women with adorable great danes. Add this to the Bossy Shrine of Goodness!!
Heart,
Evolving…
moi says
September 19, 2007 at 9:29 amThat does it. Could somebody please get Bossy (and Stella) a movie deal?
Evolving? says
September 19, 2007 at 9:37 amP.S. – Never trust a mormon. Even if she’s recovering. And makes a lot of money from her blog.
erin says
September 19, 2007 at 9:55 amI’m thinking that Bossy needs her own dance craze. “Do The Hustle” could instead be “Do the Bossy”.
I don’t get no love from Dooce, either:(
Busy Mom says
September 19, 2007 at 9:56 amThat’s hilarious! Great song, too.
Andrea says
September 19, 2007 at 9:57 amBeautiful! A tear jerker! Five stars! I must admit, you have become my favorite blogger most recently. Hurray BOSSY!
Chag says
September 19, 2007 at 10:03 amThis was hilarious! Loved that you put that thing (medicine holder?) on your dog’s head. Hopefully, she’ll send you an email.
PunditMom says
September 19, 2007 at 10:05 amBossy is SOOOO hilarious and talented. PunditMom loves Bossy. And talking about us in the third person!) 😉
joeinvegas says
September 19, 2007 at 10:12 amVerrrrry nice and well done. But look at it from the other side – can you spell ‘stalking’?
(you’re funnier and prettier anyway)
shayera says
September 19, 2007 at 10:17 amBossy is many many kinds of genius.
And we love you, even if Dooce doesn’t.
mp says
September 19, 2007 at 10:20 amI LOVED Bossy’s trip with her son to see the pretty colleges..but I really LOVE Bossy’s homage to Dooce..I MUST download that song it is awesome.
I think I DIGG this video more since I took the time to DIGG it..when my computer hates DIGG…
Bossy has FUN! Heather not so much now that it’s a business.
amanda says
September 19, 2007 at 10:32 amCall me crazy, I’ve never gotten all the hype.
You, you I get. Most of the time.
davido says
September 19, 2007 at 10:35 amXTC fan AND hot too! If you weren’t so damn bossy you’d be irresistible. 😉
mcewen says
September 19, 2007 at 10:46 amYou mean after all that effort and creative energy and still…..
Best wishes
Dawn @ Coming to a Nursery Near You says
September 19, 2007 at 10:58 amWow – I can’t wait to see the Bossy Loves Dawn movie!
rotflmao
You’re too cool, woman. Dooce doesn’t know what she’s missing!
Teryn says
September 19, 2007 at 11:07 amDamn, you’re awesome.
William says
September 19, 2007 at 11:07 amWow from the comments there are lot’s of Dooce bashers. Relax people.
I like Dooce and your movie, is there a rated R version available?
Lisa says
September 19, 2007 at 11:08 amwell, this is darn funny. I can never seem to get anything to balance on either of my dog’s heads. Well done.
Hetha says
September 19, 2007 at 11:23 amI just found you today…am already addicted. This is so fecking funny I can’t deal.
margalit says
September 19, 2007 at 11:38 amAh, XTC. Love them. Great movie. I wonder if dooce has seen it yet? You’re the anti-dooce. And your dog is bigger and cuter than chuck.
Nilsa S. says
September 19, 2007 at 11:41 amHahaha – I was just searching the Dooce website earlier to figure out how to respond to her posts. WTF!?! Heather says if you write her hate email, she reserves the right to post it on her blog. If your video love doesn’t work, try I HATE YOU! 🙂
TLB says
September 19, 2007 at 11:42 amI heart bossy.
soNOTcool says
September 19, 2007 at 11:44 amHmmm, I’ll check out dooce, but it’s gotta be pretty awesome to make it into my “massive coolness” folder on Bloglines, where BOSSY resides.
Sarah at In the Trenches of Mommyhood says
September 19, 2007 at 11:49 amI heart you.
That was so NSFW. I was laughing my tits off.
The Domestic Goddess says
September 19, 2007 at 11:51 amI love me some Dooce.
But I have to admit I also love me some Bossy. And since Bossy lives in the same state (county, school district, whatever) I kinda have to go with her. There’s enough room in my heart for all y’all, though.
But I also want a Dane very badly. Maybe she thinks you are stalking her? Or the Mormons got to her again?
Cindy Z says
September 19, 2007 at 11:52 amI like Dooce too, but I read you before her each day! Blogs should have a comment section, just my comment of course 🙂
Manic Mommy says
September 19, 2007 at 12:00 pmBossy, you are my favorite but I hate you a little too because you are so skinny and your arms don’t have any of that mommy jiggle.
Damn, XTC from waaaay back.
Laura says
September 19, 2007 at 12:01 pmThis post is kind of like you’re John Cusack standing under Dooce’s window with a great big boombox over your head. Great song!
Moi says
September 19, 2007 at 12:12 pmI heart Bossy. She cracks me up every day.
I still heart her even with her impossibly skinny arms.
Phoenix says
September 19, 2007 at 12:24 pmBossy, I totally heart you. No worries, I don’t think Dooce emails anyone very often. Course, I got one once and I’ve saved it, so I’m not sure what that makes me.
Your dog is so much cuter.
Catherine says
September 19, 2007 at 12:31 pmYou are so talented, and buff! I could hardly get past your biceps in some of the pics.
Les~ says
September 19, 2007 at 12:48 pmAwesome! I used to read “the other one” daily, but now it’s just occasionally on the weekend. You, on the other hand? I read EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. without fail! If you don’t post, I’m sad!
Love this and lovin’ you in Vegas!
qt says
September 19, 2007 at 12:51 pmPffft – I only go see dooce when none of my regulars are performing – and then, mostly just for the links archive. Love your video!!
Karen says
September 19, 2007 at 1:04 pmBossy, she’s just not that into you…
Mrs. G. says
September 19, 2007 at 1:14 pmBossy, I like you. I really, really like you.
Adorable Girlfriend says
September 19, 2007 at 1:26 pmBossy, you have the talents. And the skillz.
And yet, Dooce doesn’t pay the billz.
Lori says
September 19, 2007 at 1:42 pmShe’s really not all that and a bag of chips. But, you are!
C'tina says
September 19, 2007 at 1:57 pm…I was just thinking today, “What if someday my 5 1/2 year old son meets Leta….”, and “oh, isn’t it odd that people will know who Leta Armstrong is as she grows up….”.
Yes yes Bossy’s arms are great, as well as everything else they’re attached to…but do you have the inside of your nostrils derma planed? or was that photoshopped?
XTC? are they like OMD?
Dr. Monkey says
September 19, 2007 at 1:59 pmIt’s official, I love your blog.
jenB says
September 19, 2007 at 2:14 pmWhy can’t we all just get along? I love both of you. For those around since back in the day when dooce had open comments, it often ended up being a clusterfuck (can I say that on here?). She is a lovely and talented lady, just like our Bossy.
xoxoxo
Biddy says
September 19, 2007 at 2:16 pmi can only hope that someday bossy will love me as much as she loves dooce…i’m just sayin…
now if you will excuse me, i need to go put on some pee free pants
kim says
September 19, 2007 at 2:23 pmBossy, I think you are hilarious, and I like your Blog better than Dooce’s.
BTW, feel free to give ME some love…Im sorta new to blogging, and I have a poll on my site…but no readers to take it :((
Come take my poll!!
annie says
September 19, 2007 at 2:31 pmThat’s sad! Fuck that stuck-up DOOCE bitch.
You are 100 times funnier that HER.
Julianne says
September 19, 2007 at 2:47 pmBossy, You rocked out this post! I love reading you and Dooce. She needs to send you some love!
Brando says
September 19, 2007 at 2:54 pmBossy, that was amazing. You have the funniest blog on all of the Internets.
Meredith says
September 19, 2007 at 2:58 pmThis is the creepiest fucking thing I’ve ever seen.
Kellyology says

Hmmmmm.
Maybe therapy is in order?
Nah.
Karen Rani says
September 19, 2007 at 3:45 pmYou’re in my Bloglines. Dooce isn’t. I’m just not that into her anymore.
Painted Maypole says

Whatever. You are a hoot. Thanks for the smile today.
sassy says
September 19, 2007 at 4:21 pmDooce should run for congress. She’d be a blogger vote shoe in.
madmad says
September 19, 2007 at 4:46 pmMaybe Dooce is just being overwhelmed by houseguests who forced her to spend FOUR hours in a Wal-Mart (of ALL places in the world) and just can’t quite get to her email even though she really wants to. Oh. Yeah. That’s me. But I’m sure she’s just really busy – ‘cuz who wouldn’t love you?!
Have The T-shirt says
September 19, 2007 at 5:20 pmLove the video! Very creative.
Hope you get you some Dooce love 🙂
You and Heather BOTH have skinny arms, WTF?!

Were you just cracking up at yourself all day while putting together that video?
You crack me out.
MammaLoves says
September 19, 2007 at 10:10 pmI’m with Megan. BOSSY has all the love I need. And she’s never too cool for her peeps.
BOSSY says
September 19, 2007 at 10:13 pmPeoples sweet people: Bossy has no hate in her heart for Dooce. Maybe jealousy. But in a totally good way, of course.
Oh, The Joys says
September 19, 2007 at 10:24 pmThat is some tribute.
Next you’ll have to do that John Cusak one… stand outside her house holding a big ass tape player boom box thingy.
anaon says
September 19, 2007 at 10:25 pmits funny – I have noticed that BOSSY seems to be appearing in the comments section of a lot of high-profile bloggers all of a sudden, and also linking to them.
Its as if BOSSY went to some blogger seminar that told her how to increase traffic by leeching off more popular bloggers?
FENICLE says
September 19, 2007 at 10:29 pmOh my goodness….that is some good stuff there girl!!!!!!
(BTW – I love when people like the person who commented above me writes shit like that and has no balls to put their name to it!)
me says
September 19, 2007 at 10:31 pmANAON, what difference does it make? Blogging is work and if you are able to drive traffic by what you call “leeching” then so be it… Please don’t act so above it all!
maggie says
September 19, 2007 at 10:38 pmI think it’s been said before. But BOSSY rocks.
my minivan is faster than yours says
September 19, 2007 at 10:55 pmIsn’t a dooce a female cleansing product???
maize says
September 19, 2007 at 11:07 pmDooce is slightly amusing, but Bossy is sublime.
Andy says
September 19, 2007 at 11:57 pmMuch love for you, Bossy.
kim says
September 20, 2007 at 12:13 amAh…all the uproar about a comment section, funny to me, cause my reader(s) never leave comments…
BUT, you did Bossy, you left me a comment and you made my day. I feel like the new kid at school, and the popular guy (ya, I know you’re a girl 🙂 ) said “hi” to me.
thanks!
Miz Booshay says
September 20, 2007 at 12:18 amYou. are. funny.

Megan/ Velveteen Mind says
September 20, 2007 at 12:55 amI’m promoting your Dooce lovin’ campaign. Submitted to sk*rt and Stumble Upon, because, hell, what could it hurt?
Mary mert says
September 20, 2007 at 1:06 amI saw your link on sk*rt and had to check it out… loved the movie. You get 2 thumbs up!
Shayera says
September 20, 2007 at 2:06 amHey Anaon, Bossy has always appeared in peoples comments. It’s called being fun.
karrie says
September 20, 2007 at 8:18 amYou kind of look alike, actually.
JamesMommy says
September 20, 2007 at 8:57 amGawd, that was great. And can I say you have awesome arms?! I preggers body is totally jealous over your svelte arms. Mama needs new arms.
And have you received any Dooce love yet?
JamesMommy says
September 20, 2007 at 8:58 amI meant “My preggers body….” not “I preggers body..” as I am definitely not a pirate. Sorry!

madamex says
September 20, 2007 at 11:29 amdon’t let it go bossy…persistence worked for Letterman…and now he and Oprah are just the best pals evah!
madame x sent bossy an email once, but madame x actually told bossy she didn’t need to respond.
but it would have been awesome if she did:)
Suburban Kamikaze says
September 20, 2007 at 12:04 pmBossy, we would never treat you like a snowman over at Suburban Kamikaze, where due to our frequent use of gratuitous sexual innuendo we now have a small but cultishly devoted audience of daddy bloggers and the author’s best friends.
Did we not attempt to cook the entire contents of our refrigerators at your suggestion? (Okay, we did not, but we really, seriously considered it.)
All the best with your campaign,
SK
Jen M says
September 20, 2007 at 12:07 pmOkay – day two of the tribute. Did you get a letter? An e-mail? Did she make her own tribute? You can’t stir the pot like this and not let us know!
Miss Wisabus says
September 20, 2007 at 12:20 pmHilarious.
Rest assured that you can always get yourself some Ms. Dub love.
Audubon Ron says
September 20, 2007 at 1:31 pmI don’t want to get in the middle of it. I got my own problems.
martha says
September 20, 2007 at 1:46 pmI am sure Dooce is thinking, “Ummm, this is exactly why I don’t allow comments on my blog.” What’s it with all the picking of sides? There are sides? When did this line of thinking start? Around 89 comments ago? Weird. I love Bossy too, but she and Dooce aren’t in the fighting ring. Just running along beside each other in a field of Daisies. Bossy just wants her some love is all.
non anon a na na says
September 20, 2007 at 3:39 pmBossy just creeped me out and made me sad all at the same time. I don’t know if I’ll ever recover.
Leta says
September 20, 2007 at 4:48 pmNew to your blog, but that was hilar. It’ll keep me coming back.
Mom101 says
September 20, 2007 at 5:45 pmOr maybe you just smell?
(That’s always what I think it is with me)
Momish says
September 20, 2007 at 6:37 pmFinally on a computer that will run the movie!! Well worth the wait, I love it! XTC and Bossy rock!
Still, due my short stature and flabby bingo arms, I have to say you and dooce make me sick!
Jennifer says
September 20, 2007 at 9:28 pmFunniest thing ever.
Bossy, I love you.
Audubon Ron says
September 20, 2007 at 10:41 pmCan’t we just go back to the way we use to be?
Bossy is a fine foxy mama all the way live like none other. If not then, you know, we got to set up the female mud wrestling pen. Yeah, get these babes on it. I got the beer (not for 103 comments) but I got some beer. We need to call a Bossy / Dooce mud thing for keeps. Otherwise, I’ll be hunkering down preparing for this next hurricane that might knock us into next week. Remember, Katrina passed directly over my house and killed my tractor and barn. I miss my tractor. It was old, smelly and did what I wanted. This new John Deere has too many buttons and switches. Shit, it ain’t the same. I even look all wrong in green and yellow. It ain’t who you are, it’s how you look.
stella says
September 21, 2007 at 12:43 amperformance art indeed. at its finest.
jenica says
September 21, 2007 at 1:58 amhahahahhahahahaha. fantastic! so i’m not the only dooce stalker? that’s at least how she makes me feel when she never returns an email. boo hoo. and i even live in the same valley as her!
The Dairy Wife says
September 21, 2007 at 7:54 amOkay Ms. Bossy … I had to delurk! This was hilarious! I love it!
I just wish that Dooce could find some love for you too … ha~
Tanya
Lauren says
September 21, 2007 at 9:38 amYou just want her because she’s so unavailable.
kj says
September 21, 2007 at 10:38 amAfter this post, YOU are my new “dooce”. Loved this!
Jamie says
September 21, 2007 at 1:41 pmToo too funny Mizz Bossy! You rock the ear muffs!
I sent Dooce an e-mail about two years ago when I first discovered the bloggy world. I had no idea that she was like Oprah, but cooler. 😉
nutmeg says
September 21, 2007 at 3:39 pmOkay, ANOAN really pissed me off. I’m sending her an invite to the assholery!
Alyce says
September 21, 2007 at 6:15 pmWhy so much hate, ladies? One of the best parts of being a person of intelligence is the ability to hold two conflicting ideas in your head (and heart) at the same time.
There’s enough love for Heather and Bossy.
Also, if I ran a blog with millions of unique hits a month, I would not want every troll and their mother to leave me a comment. No to mention the bandwidth required to host such a thing. A logistical nightmare. Besides, many of us have read her very funny posts with some of the emails she gets. Her responses are often riotous. But I am always surprised at how deeply personal and offensive the emails themselves are.
People in the blogosphere give themselves permission to be meaner in email and comments than they would ever dare IRL.
Colleen says
September 21, 2007 at 11:03 pmBossy! This is hilarious! My favorite part is Bella with the pill holder on her head. Great song too!
kimblahg says
September 22, 2007 at 12:31 amI love love love that song.
Kristi says
September 22, 2007 at 4:38 pmI just can’t stop watching this clip. I LOVE IT!
Bossy?
You Rock!!
Lady Strathconn says
September 22, 2007 at 7:29 pmOh My Stinkin’ Heck said this video was hysterical and she was not wrong.
I am adding you to my Bloglines and (alphabetically) you will be before Dooce.
Matthew says
September 23, 2007 at 10:43 amIf you want to stalk me, I’ll totally respond to every email and graciously accept your “stuff.”
For a while anyway. I am, after all, a dude.
Jonathon Morgan says
September 23, 2007 at 10:45 amDear God, I hope that works.
Meghan says
September 23, 2007 at 12:30 pmYou are my BOSSY.
My only BOSSY.
You make me happy, when skies are gray.
You’ll never know, BOSSY
How much I love you (and your dog).
Please don’t take my BOSSY away.
jennifer moorehead says
September 24, 2007 at 12:24 amYou are 150% funnier, cuter, and nicer than dooce. I have a totally-straight-non-stalkerish-girl crush on you.
tongue in cheek says
September 24, 2007 at 9:00 amlol Brilliant! Be careful Dooce might come over and kiss your cheek and since you are so cold from her abandonment her kiss might stick on your cheek and she will stay fixated as we are to you! Of course you warm our hearts and funny bones!
Andi says
September 24, 2007 at 10:17 amall the hatin’ makes me skeert (shivershakeshiver) to comment.
I’m with the “when did we pick sides?” crowd, and I hate to be with the crowd, but that’s where I am…
I heart both of y’all and hope you get some dude hearts swoon, I mean soon.
hilarious vid.great song.
supertiff says
September 24, 2007 at 1:26 pmi thought this was the funniest thing i’ve ever seen here (although, originally you won me over with the broccoli bugs…yeah, i’m relatively new to these parts) and i totally don’t get why some people don’t get it.
it’s scary how many people there are out there who are eager to spread hostility.
Leaf, probably... says
September 24, 2007 at 5:08 pmBossy just crossed a line. A hilarious, hilarious, line.
missris says
September 24, 2007 at 8:21 pmris likes dooce but loves bossy. and bossy’s son is way hotter than dooce’s, uh, oh wait dooce doesn’t have a hot son, or the awesome comedic timing that seems to come so naturally to bossy. love it!
surcie says
September 24, 2007 at 10:20 pmBossy is my Dooce.
boomama says
September 25, 2007 at 9:55 pmOkay – the pill box on the dog’s snout nearly did me in. That’s an homage if I ever saw one, Ms. G.
And part of me expected to scroll down this page and see, “I’m Heather B. Armstrong, and this is my comment.” It would have been a tender moment indeed.
Nadine says
September 26, 2007 at 2:23 pmHahahaha! HILARIOUS, as always!
moodswingingmommy says
September 26, 2007 at 4:17 pmDelurking…How I love this! Yep, your technique did work for Letterman, so you never know.
I love me some Dooce, but you are the cats pajamas, Bossy!

bitemycookie says
September 26, 2007 at 8:10 pmwhat’s a dooce?
(i’ve rocking out to xtc these past few days. must be channeling bossy. your art directorial quality is higher than mine. concepts, too. eh. now i need to make a video professing my love for bossy? fine. done.)
VDog says
September 27, 2007 at 1:48 amI don’t know where that ANON gets off — Bossy has always left comments all over the blogosphere. And funny-ass comments, to boot!
Bossy doesn’t need to leech off “bigger” bloggers — she already is one, beyotch!
Nin says
September 28, 2007 at 9:43 amtoo funny!
RLGelber says
October 2, 2007 at 10:40 amThat’s the funniest thing I’ve ever seen. The Chuck impersonation is priceless!!
Howard says
October 4, 2007 at 1:35 pmWell, damn! I wish I had watch this when you first posted it. I’ve been so busy that I’ve been lazy with my reading. Nice job using something from English Settlement. 🙂
Sarah, Goon Squad Sarah says
October 5, 2007 at 11:13 amIf I had the skillz I would make a “Sarah Loves Bossy” video.
But:
1) I don’t know how you did that.
2) I haven’t edited anything in years.
3) You never treat me like a snowman.
whit says
October 5, 2007 at 1:37 pmI’ve never read Dooce. I don’t really have any plans to do so.
I’m sure he/she/it(?) is just fantastic, but I’m not one for hype.
Colleen says
October 5, 2007 at 2:25 pmSarah and her Goon Squad sent me over here. Hysterical!!!
Ruth Dynamite says
October 5, 2007 at 3:26 pmOh my good god. How did I miss this?
I weep with laughter.
Stefania/CityMama says
October 5, 2007 at 3:49 pmthis one takes the cake. you are too much!
hello insomnia says
October 5, 2007 at 4:10 pmYou slay me, Bossy.
Emily says
October 5, 2007 at 4:14 pmSent by Sarah at SATGS. I enjoyed the video muchly.
Fairly Odd Mother says
October 5, 2007 at 4:19 pmAhhh, Miss Chicky knows how to pick ’em. Great post, great video.
I read my Bossy before I read my Dooce. So there.
motherbumper says
October 5, 2007 at 4:43 pmyou are brilliant, just wonderfully brilliant.
Jenn says
October 5, 2007 at 6:26 pmAbsolutely hilarious! You crack me up!
If I had the skills and equipment and time and knowledge, I would totally make a video for you. But I don’t. So I will pretend. (Was it good for you?)
Lena says
October 5, 2007 at 6:47 pmI was told this was going to be a Bossy and Dooce sex tape.
I feel jipped.
motherofbun says
October 5, 2007 at 9:41 pmA Bossy Haiku — Because you are so awesome
A hot BlogWhore chick
Bossy can hold her liquor
And she’s funny too!
All Adither says
October 6, 2007 at 12:47 amDooce is cool. Dooce is fun. But I had to take her off my blogroll because, how much hype does one woman need?
I just discovered Bossy and am so much the better for it.
Inspired by your creativity.
KL says
October 7, 2007 at 10:36 amwe’re not worthy
Melinda says
October 8, 2007 at 8:38 pmHave no idea who dooce is but this f…ing rocked! Very unique.
Secret Agent Mama says
October 19, 2007 at 3:44 pmBossy is a dooce, for sure! If Bossy doesn’t think so, she needs to know it’s true b/c I said so. Who am I? I’m Secret Agent Mama, that’s who!
Jerseygirl89 says
October 19, 2007 at 7:02 pmDooce does not deserve you.
Moon Goddess says
November 1, 2007 at 11:57 amLurker here-I’m with you Bossy. I was intrigued by this “dooce” you all speak of, and a while ago, tried to see what the hype is all about. I read and read…and nothing. Just never did it for me. I just don’t get what her big deal is. Seriously-there are much more taleneted folk out there (yourself included!)
EmilyPie says
February 3, 2008 at 9:27 pmjust wanted to give you props for this.
I’ve been reading dooce for (GOD) almost 5 years now…. and have yet to receive a response to any of my emails. Not that I blame her… I’m just a blah person in a sea of hate mail…. but I feel your pain. Really, I do.
Red Flashlight says
August 11, 2008 at 3:13 pmNo need to dis Dooce! She’s got her own thing. She takes nice pictures.
But you’ve got your own thing, too, Bossy. Feggettiboutter. Plenty of fish in the sea.
