in TMI Thursday,TMIT Post Secret Style,confessionary tales,dear god I am GOING to be back in Puerto Viejo!,people are fascinating animals

***Alright, folks, you know the rules. Join us all in humiliating the crap out of yourself every Thursday by sharing some completely tasteless, wholly unclassy, “how many readers can I estrange THIS week??” TMI story about your life. Or hell, about someone else’s!

 Steal this button and put it in your post just by copying and pasting the html code in the box below, or just link back to the hub with this link, so your readers can read ALLLLLLL the TMI glory, and I’ll make sure to link to you.***

TMI Thursday!!! (ew)

Now get ready, my darlings, for the ever popular, yet gravely feared, TMI THURSDAYS…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It is time… for the second installment of TMI Thursday, a la Post Secret! If you’ve been living under a rock and don’t know what Frank Warren’s GENIUS idea is, click that link to be amazed. People from all over the world send him anonymous postcards, of anything they want, so long as it represents their own personal secret. And that’s what we’ve decided to do here, TMI style. (Click here for last week’s entries.)

If you sent one in but don’t see it here today, do not fret. I received wayyyy more than I was anticipating, and I think it’s only fair we spread them out so each one gets the attention it deserves. I will email you to let you know when it’s going up, so if you used the Top Secret anonymous email account to send it in (Gmail, username tmithursday, password tmit1234), then make sure to check back- I’ll respond to that email chain. Of course, you’re always welcome to send them straight to my regular email at heylivitluvit at gmail dot com. I swear on my Snuggie your secrets are safe. After all, you’ve all got endless amounts of blackmail on me!

Please continue to send your picture TMITs in! I will make sure every last one is posted. (More elaborate instructions are here, if you’d like, and I suggest the free photo editing website Fotoflexer to make it super duper easy.)

Okay, everyone. This is a killer ride, but remember the ground rules…

  1. PLAY NICE. Don’t make me moderate comments on these. (And by me, I mean the lovely Lexa, who has my password and WILL USE IT if you don’t behave, since I am sunning myself in Costa Rica right now. Woot!)
  2. You can leave anonymous comments, unless you give me a reason to take them away. See rule 1.
  3. Actually, Rule 1 pretty much covers it. SERIOUSLY, Y’ALL.

All righty, then. And away we go…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

  

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Amazing. You guys, what you’ve shared- I am truly in awe. I’m only sad I won’t be able to read the comments as they come in, but it will be like one kickass book when I finally do get to a computer in Costa Rica.

Since I’m going to be away til the 16th, we’ll have a Mr. Linky up for you to link your own TMI Thursday posts. Please be kind and make sure to link back to the hub if you do one, or just steal the TMI button up top.

Great.

Now I feel REALLY horrible about the ‘eye’ thing.

2 Gofahne November 5, 2009 at 7:51 am

I am constantly amazed by the “universal voice” we all share in these posts. I think that is why I was so amazed by Post Secret in the first place. There are fantastic-ly funny entries (which I heart mucho), but the entries where people have to carry such a burden on themselves just makes me want to go out and hug ALL of my friends extra tight, in case they are carrying a secret too. Huge cyber love to this project and to EVERYONE sharing.

3 Maxie November 5, 2009 at 8:35 am

now i’m very glad I don’t have a water jug in my office.

4 Megan November 5, 2009 at 8:36 am

These are always so great.

Have fun in Costa Rica, dearest LiLu.

5 Jessica @ How Sweet It Is November 5, 2009 at 8:37 am

OMG love these!!!

6 MJenks November 5, 2009 at 8:40 am

Whoever the sad clown is…I feel your pain.

Stomach ailment person…eat some raw beef.

7 nikki November 5, 2009 at 8:45 am

I’ve always felt like my funniest friends just might be the most depressed.

8 Jackie November 5, 2009 at 8:52 am

I’m totally with the stomach ailment person. I’m going on a cruise next week and have been begging for a stomach flu or food poisoning. Instead I got a sinus/ear infection.

9 Adrienzgirl November 5, 2009 at 8:56 am

You never fail to deliver LiLu, I think I like you more the the pizza delivery guy now! And that is A LOT! ;)

10 Dani November 5, 2009 at 9:04 am

I’d like to be appalled about the water jug, but something makes me suspect that it’s still no worse then the Jersey tap water i willingly drink.

And the psych student in me feels the need to say to the sad clown and the older sister that there are lots of fabulous resources out there when and if you are ready to use them. Not an instant fix but a step in the direction of feeling better.

11 Suburban Sweetheart November 5, 2009 at 9:05 am

Thanks, love.

I got that boom, boom, pow. ;)

12 carissajaded November 5, 2009 at 9:18 am

OH how I love you for coming up with this! And to the girl who peed on the couch? I’ve tried to pass it as girl jizz too!!

13 hillbillyduhn November 5, 2009 at 9:26 am

You know, this one time back in my first marriage, my ex hubs and I were enjoying some oral sex, and he got me in the eye. Okay, it burned like all get up, my eye watered and I went and rinsed it out. Saying, “Shit, man,you got me in my eye!” and we laughed about it. But otherwise my eye was fine. Maybe something was wrong with that spooge that got that person?

14 alliemarien November 5, 2009 at 9:40 am

i’ve also hoped for a stomach bug instead of cutting back on the food. so far just a few colds….no such luck.

15 Nickie November 5, 2009 at 9:46 am

As usual, amazing!!! =] Have fun in Costa Rica!

16 Aritza, Goddess of .. November 5, 2009 at 9:48 am

Someone has to teach me about Geocaches, I’m so curious. Espesh’ if it means finally getting some paper when I gotta take a dump in the woods :P

Ah ! My first bf once came in my eye too.. URGH that shit burns like hell ! Thankfully, my eye recovered.

Sincerly, I’m not sure if I’ve ever encountered a circumsized penis .. I should google it up. Or not. That may not be a great idea.

All great secrets ! Yay .. both the ones I sent in have been published .. I gotta send more now :o )

JP Reply:

Geocaches are a cache of things that someone has left somewhere and then post the coordinates to where it is online. People take the coordinates and then try to go find the geocache. Sometimes people leave little trinkets or something in it. Sometimes there’s a log in it so you can record when you found it. Sometimes you’re supposed to leave something there… In this case there was apparently a bunch of paper…

a!kO Reply:

I don’t think I have come upon an uncircumsized penis…hmmm

JP Reply:

Last estimate I saw was the rate of circumcision was actually down to about 50% now…

The most common reasons for circumcising are:
1> We want him to look like Daddy…
Uh… yeah, see first he’s not going to look like Daddy for a VERY long time… second, when he does look like Daddy, odds are he and Daddy aren’t going to be comparing penises.

2> We want him to look like everyone else…
well rates about 50% now… so about 1/2 the boys in the lockerroom are gonna be cut and about half won’t…

3> It’s cleaner…
Yeah, teach your kid how to wash his penis and that won’t be a problem…

Really I don’t see what anyone circumcises anymore outside of religious reasons… (and even then I don’t really get it, but…)

lemmonex Reply:

Circumcision is mutilation.

17 That Kind of Girl November 5, 2009 at 9:51 am

Amazing. Man, though, I feel terrible for Squinty McSpooged-in. I’ve definitely taken an eyeful before, then kept going for a few hours (I can, if nothing else, rise to a dang occasion) then all of a sudden the next day been like: “dude, why is my eye bloodshot magenta?!”

18 Vodka Logic November 5, 2009 at 9:53 am

14 times in one and he believed her… lol….what a sap

19 Lee November 5, 2009 at 9:59 am

The pee on the couch………Heeeeelarious!!!!!!!

20 Sassy Britches November 5, 2009 at 10:09 am

I totally see myself in a lot of these! I feel badly for those going through it, but I suppose it helps a bit to know you’re not the only one.

21 melanie decarli November 5, 2009 at 10:10 am

Ok, last week left me laughing and this week leaves me with a tear. Not only because they are heartfelt but because they look so damn professional! Much more talented than I am shiiz.

Go on. Go to Costa Rica. Walk around barefoot, drink el presidente and smoke some fab cigars. See if I care :(

22 shine November 5, 2009 at 10:22 am

Oh crap, someone ELSE spilled my secret about wanting to get a tapeworm or something instead of going to the gym everyday.

23 Travis November 5, 2009 at 10:23 am

I guess I should probably do one of these things…

24 Hope November 5, 2009 at 10:26 am

Buahahahaha

25 Jessica November 5, 2009 at 10:28 am

These are great! I might have to try one.

26 Just A Girl November 5, 2009 at 10:33 am

Um if anyone gets a tapeworm, could you please see if it has a brother for me? I really like the idea of eating and eating and getting thinner.

Sigh.

27 Mb November 5, 2009 at 10:47 am

I don’t give people enough credit. The authors of these secrets are far more creative than I would have imagined. Loves it.

28 Penny Lane November 5, 2009 at 11:05 am

I have a post secret ready, I just don’t know if I can put it out there.

Its been ready for a long time.

These are awesome!

29 jenniferalaine November 5, 2009 at 11:10 am

“I said it was female ejaculate, but it was really just pee.”

I’M SO SCARED OF THAT! What a great TMI secret. Love it.

30 danielle November 5, 2009 at 11:50 am

Now I feel like a jackass because mine wasn’t nearly that heart-rendering…

31 violet November 5, 2009 at 12:03 pm

WOW, I am practically speechless. For those who sent in their secrets and the painful ones at that, my heartfelt and most sincere sympathy and hugs.

32 Lauren November 5, 2009 at 12:03 pm

I love these post secrets they are awesome.

And I love the feeling of weight loss when really really sick, but it never lasts, damn food is just so tasty.

33 MinD November 5, 2009 at 12:10 pm

Very awesome, and so sincere. I might like these more than the actual Post Secret ones…

34 a!kO November 5, 2009 at 12:12 pm

I think the pee thing, would actually freak me out…I can’t seem to hold back…when I need to pee, I need to pee.

35 mylittlebecky November 5, 2009 at 12:21 pm

once again! love these. i couldn’t figure out the geo cache one… but then it aaaall came together and i scrolled back up. way to go, becky’s brain.

hope you have fun on your vaacaaay! :)

36 Wonderful November 5, 2009 at 12:36 pm

I can’t imagine what it’d be like to find out “surprise! i’m pregnant!”

37 Captain Dumbass November 5, 2009 at 12:41 pm

Ew. Pee?

38 Amber Murphy November 5, 2009 at 12:53 pm

I love the secrets! All of them. I am so obsessed with Post Secret. It’s a must read every Sunday. Have fun on your vaca.

So, my TMI is particulary bad this week. There’s video.

39 Alex November 5, 2009 at 1:01 pm

Eeeeeek, wow, bit different to what I normally read…bit of burden sharing I think. And yeah please, give me a stomach flu cos I am sooooooooo over the gym!

40 seyma November 5, 2009 at 1:12 pm

OMG these all are LOL as hell!!!

i posted about your TMIs dear.. and linked back to you… hope it works :)

love.

41 Lucy November 5, 2009 at 1:24 pm

Wow, some of them are so very touching, they really do strike the heart!

The Vacation finally got here, good for you!!!!

42 Jaime November 5, 2009 at 1:26 pm

Let me just say that I <3 Post Secret, and this is like getting two Post Secret blogs a week, and so much TMI!

Hope you're having a blast with your lovah, LiLu.
xoxo

43 Sadako November 5, 2009 at 2:13 pm

Hey, who doesn’t hope for a stomach ailment when they wanna lose weight? I keed, I keed.

44 Chelsea Talks Smack November 5, 2009 at 2:26 pm

wow….shit. some of these really grabbed me. especially the one about pee.

45 Kellie November 5, 2009 at 3:10 pm

The ejaculate/pee on the couch is hilarious! Who does that???

I hope you are having the greatest time ever on your sweet little vacay. Super jealous and I miss you. :(

46 Randi November 5, 2009 at 3:18 pm

i love this day… and i love coming here and reading these too!

47 Meghan November 5, 2009 at 3:22 pm

It’s funny how universal secrets can be.

48 f.B November 5, 2009 at 4:09 pm

people should drink less water; it lightens the pee. that way at least if any urine got in the water thing, you’d know. because it’d be yellow.

49 Lollygagger November 5, 2009 at 4:10 pm

I love these because they show that you never really know someone unless they’re willing to share with you.

50 hanako66 November 5, 2009 at 5:29 pm

these are so awesome

51 Jules November 5, 2009 at 5:56 pm

Wow. Those are GREAT ones!!! Some thought provoking things!

52 siovhan November 5, 2009 at 6:04 pm

wow. i’m amazed at the secrets people have and keep. i love this! i think everyone needs to let out their burdens every now and then.

53 Paula November 5, 2009 at 6:14 pm

The female ejaculation one totally cracked me up!

54 Steam Me up, Kid November 5, 2009 at 6:23 pm

My favorite is the geyser. That’s just art, is what it is.

55 Beth Dunn November 5, 2009 at 7:09 pm

Hysterical! HAve fun in Costa Rica-so jealous. I’m dying about the water jug. I hope I’ve never drank pee. xoxo

SC

56 spleeness November 5, 2009 at 7:18 pm

I absolutely love this. It made the little (ok, big) part of my brain that wants to know it’s not alone feel better, like we all have secrets. The one that made me laugh the most? “B*tch deserved it.” But I loved them all!

Have a great time in Costa Rica, can’t wait to hear about your trip when you get back!

57 Carol November 5, 2009 at 7:44 pm

Have a great trip!
Love these Secret Posts.

58 Aimee November 5, 2009 at 8:11 pm

I really love these! :) Rock on!

59 Candice November 5, 2009 at 9:38 pm

You’re going to put Frank Warren out of business! Awesome.

60 alexa - cleveland's a plum November 5, 2009 at 11:56 pm

these are quickly becoming my favorites posts of yours!

61 Lori November 6, 2009 at 12:27 am

Another great week of secrets shared. Wow.

Hope you have a blast on your trip! XXOO

62 Zandria November 6, 2009 at 1:08 am

I love Post Secret, and I love these just as much (if not more)…I also feel the need to want to hug some of these people…Lord forgive me when I whine!

63 Mesina November 6, 2009 at 6:33 am

Great post! So you may not get this for a while but…

there’s an award on my blog for you :)

http://artisticallynuts.blogspot.com/2009/11/its-awards-time-again-get-those-frocks.html

64 Miss_Nobody November 6, 2009 at 7:47 am

The stomach infection?I got that.;)
Cool stuff!hehe and I love the pee on the couch

65 Nikolett November 6, 2009 at 1:24 pm

Hope you have an absolutely amazing time in Costa Rica! So jealous haha. And once again, this idea is ingenious … some of these had me laughing while others really made me think. So many comedians end up being the most depressed, even though they have this amazing ability to make others laugh … so that secret really stood out for me.

66 Very Married November 6, 2009 at 3:40 pm

hahahahah!

these are HILARIOUS.

67 BigMamaCass November 6, 2009 at 4:27 pm

those are so awesome!!

68 andhari November 6, 2009 at 8:51 pm

Peed on the water jug? Okay that person’s seriously disturbed! lol

69 nashe November 7, 2009 at 4:41 am

Oh man I can totally relate to the second-last one. :(

Happy costa ricking.

70 Constructive Attitude November 7, 2009 at 8:07 am

wow a couple of these were downright depressing :(

71 Andy November 7, 2009 at 4:38 pm

It amazes me how honest and refreshing people are when they can just get things off their chest without fear of persecution…

And then you realize how many things people you know in real life haven’t told you. And how many things you haven’t told them.

72 UnoCosa November 8, 2009 at 2:38 am

what an intriguing idea – and to see into the secrets from others … i am amazed how honest people gets when they don’t reveal themselves …. xx

73 meleah rebeccah November 9, 2009 at 4:31 pm

hope you are having a BLAST on vacation! See you when you get back on the 16th!

74 Lil' Woman November 10, 2009 at 8:02 am

wow….you stay keeping me addicted to your page, with your genius ideas!!! :)
