Oh The Epic Awesomeness



This morning as I was doing my daily ritual of clicking through my RSS feeds and reading my favorite blogs, I noticed a post by Vintage Revivals that I couldn't help but share!

First off, I LOVE Vintage Revivals. The creative awesomeness of this woman boggles my mind. She redid a nightstand using TIN FOIL and it looks amazing. TIN.FOIL. Also - she took two different rugs and cut them and worked them together into an amazing zebra print rug...as in made the thing herself. I, myself, could never do this. I don't have the willpower or the creativity to come up with this stuff - but she does and she shares her unbelievable ideas.

Also - she's giving away a FREE ROOM MAKEOVER done by her and her creative genius. Seriously. She'll travel anywhere in the United States too.

Anyway...this isn't about my blog crush on Mandi at Vintage Revivals.

This is about a blog that was launched:

My Favorite Hate Mail: Where Mean Comments Go To Die.


A blog dedicated completely to the negative commenters of the world. I personally haven't received a negative comment, yet, but I have read posts about bloggers who get hurt and contemplate blogger suicide by deleting their blog forever. I HATE when this happens!

Yes, these negative people are entitled to their opinion and exercise the incredible right of free speech. However, this doesn't make them right and it certainly doesn't mean they're not complete D-bags.

I've also seen the blog posts where the bloggers put their commenters front and center and say "Screw the high road and your high horse!" I applaud these bloggers - I really do. High road or not, you have to take a stand somewhere!


And now there's a place for these bloggers to defend themselves! This is a place where bloggers can submit their own mud slingers and defend their blog, their creativity and their lives.


I know I haven't received a negative comment yet. (To my nice commenters: thank you, I wish I could hug you all individually. You truly brighten my day!)


But if and when I do: you can be sure to find it on My Favorite Hate Mail.


Even better? You can join the crusade as a blogger who doesn't stand for negativity! Click here to join! I did. I know this blog is tiny, but this is too big not to support!

  1. Haha, that blog is fantastic! I haven't gotten any nasty comments yet, either, but I'm sure it's a matter of time . . . and I don't think I'll be the kind who handles it very gracefully, that's for sure!
