I’m Thinking There’s Gonna Be a Ton of “No Shows” at This Shindig

Dear Allie:

I’m just writing to thank you for inviting me to the Tillamook Loaf Love Tour “family fun” day in Costa Mesa next week.

Unfortunately, I won’t be able to attend, as I’m pretty sure my walking around asking anyone who will look at me, “Loaf Love? What the fuck were they thinking?” was not the reason you invited me to this wonderful event, or was it?

I only ask because if I were you and I was forced to send out an email to thousands of people inviting them to ANY gathering with the word “loaf” in the title that I too would seek my revenge any way I could and asking a big mouth Jew like me come and spread the word that whoever named this gig is pretty much the biggest fucking idiot of all time is frankly, genius.

Never mind that I’m lactose intolerant, but more to the point, if you really did take the time to read my blog you would know that I have the mind set of a 15 year old high school BOY and therefore would be more than likely to read the name Loaf Love and immediately start banging out the poopy jokes.

Which leads me to ask why would you invite children? I mean, if you think my mind is in the toilet, take a walk around the party and you’ll see that I’m clearly not the only one repeatedly uttering the word “loaf” and laughing her ass off each and every time.

Now I can only hope for your sake and the sake of your clients present and future that the individual who came up with the idea and more so the one who actually looked at it and said, “Perfect. Let’s go with that one!” will soon be joining the ranks of so many of us who rush out to our mailboxes day after day praying that our unemployment check has finally arrived.

Finally, you should know that until they find another term for the form in which they package sliced bread, I will be limiting myself to having my sandwiches made with rolls and buns only.

Thanks for your time.

Lots of loaf,

Jessica

    I only get invited to review books about Jesus and Sesame Street, respectively. I WISH I had a blog that drew in invitations to loaf parties. I think it’s funny AND i love cheese.

    I am just trying to imagine a whole room full of people planning this and saying loaf love without one of them giggling and revealing their inner 15 year old boy. Sheesh I can’t say it out loud without laughing. Also, your parties are so much better than mine too.

  8. Yeah, I’m thinking Loaf Love should be emblazoned across the back of some pajama bottoms. Not mine, of course, but maybe someone who lives in Costa Mesa. I totally don’t get it, but this would validate California as the state where weird shit happens. And by shit, I mean loaf love.
