Comment on Superbowl Ad Controversy: ARE YOU JOKING? by Curvy Jones

I vote no dating site ads at all. Valentine’s Day is coming up… I already have to look at Lee and Anne Marie every commercial break, liberally sprinkled with ads for Kay Jewelers and Jared, The Galleria of Jewelers. No dating ads, PERIOD. Make them good and funny. I don’t want to cry during the Superbowl. Single gay people don’t want to either!

Love. Like, an uncomfortably close amount of love. THANK YOU.

I finally got around to reading your post all the way through. I saw just the first few paragraphs the other day and had to stop reading. I lost my mom to lung cancer 6 years ago. She was also 57 when she passed. Her birthday would have been on Feb 24th.

Thankfully for her sake she went fast but I was with her that final week and I saw things that I will never be able to erase from my memory as well. And I get angry because those are the last images I will remember of her and it’s not fair.

I was an only child and my mom was my best friend. I am so sad that she never got to see me get married or have two beautiful children or to be a shoulder to cry on when my marriage fell apart. It crushes me sometimes the pain of not having her around. It helps knowing that someone else feels the same way. Realize that you aren’t alone in your feelings and your situation. I loved your post and your mom would be so proud of you!

What a beautiful post. Besides the fact that you are such a gifted writer, you should be honored. Honored that you had the realtionship, no matter how flawed, long or short with your mother. She will always be special, and someone that mattered. Your memories will always be special. Some of us have mothers that are still alive, and will never mean or achieve a place in our hearts the way your mother did. It’s not the length of time we have with our loved ones but the quality. Sounds like yours was A+. I envy you and your memories…memories that will last a life time, as long as you let them. Don’t grieve the loss, but celebrate the life, the memories, and the gifts that were so obviously passed on to you. Someone that special doesn’t die…not really.

Wow,

Know that you are not alone. We have a lot in common. My mother had a stroke in May 1995 & passed in December 1995. So needless to say that Christmas & New Years don’t find me in a jolly mood. I also witnessed a vivacious woman who loved life and cherished her grandkids (my son was born in March of 1995), turn into a quiet inhibited person who held in her pain while I was around her because she always thought of others first. She passed when I was 29; still a kid in a lot of ways. I never had the chance to take her to dinner, to spend one on one time to talk about things, foolishly thinking that your mother will be with you forever. Well, mothers ARE with you forever, just not in the way we wish them to be. I try to keep myself thinking that I will see her again. Will I? One can only hope.

Thanks for sharing,

Wow.
I was wondering why I gravitated toward your posts. This is it, the truth.
The truth no one says or allows themselves to feel. Your writing is truly on fire, you bring it all back, not just for yourself.
This week I went to two ceremonies for dead friends, one a mother at 28, with babies, cancer.One a close buddy, killed on vacation. Today while you were feeling your vitamin C, I almost couldn’t move, an exhaustion from way inside.
I don ‘t have words to say to you other than you are not alone.
That’s some powerful stuff.
Good night. Good night.

I wrote part three and decided I didn’t want to share it. I’ll probably just remove all the stories at some point. Decided I’m not a fan of sharing much of my encounters, sorry.

How does not liking Animal House / frat boy-type humour mean I hate men, “Scatmaster”?

No, I just like my humour to have a brain. That doesn’t make me MISANDRIST at all. That makes me sophisticated when it comes to humour, not some man-hating woman. Jesus Christ.

That’s WHY I hate this commercial, because MOST MEN I KNOW are better than the football slobs they have in this commercial. Read what’s there, not what you PERCEIVE to be between the lines.
