Taking a Few Seconds Off
Hi all. I know everyone comes here for some laughs and to get away from their desk for a few minutes a day, so I apologize in advance for the brief Debbie Downer moment. I recently found out that a long-time reader of IBBB had passed away. While I never knew him personally, Kevin was one of my Facebook friends and would shoot over emails to me from time to time regarding some of the absolute crap I would write about on a daily basis. It’s funny because I can look at the hundreds of thousands of people who read IBBB monthly and sometimes it just looks like numbers, but I am always so grateful for the people that are behind those numbers. When things like this happen it’s always so easy to jump back in to “what really matters in life” and to “stop sweating the small stuff,” but I think it’s true. I feel like you sometimes never really know what someones situation is behind closed doors, but it’s important to get to know that.
So, today I’m taking the blogging day off and dedicating it to Kevin from South Carolina. Thanks for always reading, Kevin, and rest in peace. Also, if you can let me know if God happens to not like the jokes I make I would kind of appreciate that. Especially the ones about Bindi. Oh, and about LC’s mustache. Although, I bet he’s laughing at that one.

Such a nice way of showing respect to Kevin, and I am sure he will be asking GOD your question. Make sure that you are ready for HIS answer/s.
Stay safe and carry a big stick just in case. -
Little Suzy Said,
That’s awesome – nice tribute. I read your blog because you’re not so big and full of yourself to not be affected by something like this.

I came today to read your Teen Mom update – your posts make me laugh so hard every time I read one. I passed along your link on my FB page, and on a message board I visit.

Sorry to hear about Kevin from South Carolina. I am sure he was a great person. He had to be to enjoy your awful jokes.

IBBB,
Long time reader, first time commenter. Your sentiments about Kevin are so nice.
I have been reading your blog for about 2 years. I remember when you “Unplugged”. By chance one day I happened to say to myself, “Let me just see if IBBB came to his senses and plugged back in”. Then there you were again! That was a great day for me! Rarely do I ever laugh out loud (I refuse to say LOL)at websites. Yours is the exception though. I know I speak for many, if not all, of your readers (minus the Bindi zealots) when I say you have extraordinary talent. Not only are you hilarious, but you are able to convey it on the page. I know one day soon you will get your big break, your blog just needs some more exposure. That seems to be happening though, so keep up the amazing work! -
Lala Said,
Awww, really touching. You brought lots of happiness to him. I’m sure God has a kick ass sense of humor! RIP, Kevin.
