Giant289Pig

Please forgive me for interrupting the current programming with a surprise part 3 of our four hundred thousand, seven hundred and ninety two part series...

People Who Hate Me

So, I had to reset a password. The site sent me a temporary password to log in with. Yeah. The title above is my temporary password. They don't even know me and they're calling me a giant pig. Effers.

I have to say, your blog's title had me laughing but the Giant289Pig was just too much. Bless your heart!

BTW...I also seem to belong to that "people who hate me" drama, too. Don't they always have the worst timing!?

Hope your weekend gets better...and good luck on Monday!

addingtothepack said...: Well at least the # wasn't higher than 289? Not a lot of positive spin to put on that one. They must get their temp passwords from the same word repository as blogger who puts out some weird word verifications on occassion.

Best of luck tomorrow.
