Simple Dude in a Complex World by Simple Dude
The Ranter's Box by The Empress
It's a twofer! I like these two blogs for the exact same reasons so I figured I might as well make them both my Blog of the Week to spare myself the unnecessary difficulty of having to choose. I could toss a coin, but really, why bother?
Anyway, my three reasons for choosing their blogs:
1. As always, it comes down to good writing. They don't write fancy, but they communicate well enough to get their points across.
2. They tell it like it is. I disagree with them on some occasions, but you find them so sincere and forthright (sometimes bordering on "too much information" actually), that you find it difficult not to respect their opinion on things.
3. They are funny and snarky. In fact, this third reason should be enough to get you to read them already.
Bonus reason: Beneath the snarkiness, I think they are actually genuinely nice people; they just don't want you to know it.
So check them out, then come back here and tell me what you think. Enjoy!
good blogs both....

Thank you kindly for the blog recognition. It is a high honor coming from you Fickle Cattle! And I feel as equally stoked to be placed in the same wonderful category as Simple Dude.
ReplyDeletePlease know that while my blog is indeed snarky, it is meant all in good fun.
Have a lovely weekend!

Dear Fickle Cattle,
ReplyDeleteWell, there's not much nicer than someone as open, generous, interested and supportive of others as you appear to be. (Of course you may be a calculating, devious bastard playing a double bluff, but I doubt it...she says, going out on a limb!)
Thank you for your comment on my own new blog, I am here to rummage around your mind too, and shall be pootling off to rummage around others. What larks.

I'm completely honored by this. As Empress said I am very honored to be mentioned next to her - she was one of the first blogs I followed when starting this whole crazy thing, so she is a must follow.
ReplyDeleteBut coming from you is extra special as I have been following you since I first signed into Blogger, not missing a post yet.
Thanks much!

ReplyDeleteSimple Dude's blog totally rocked so I followed it but the other one gave me a headache. It gives 'too much information' just like you said. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the recommendations!
