What's up with blogging chicks and cupcakes?
I rarely click on the authors bio of a blog i'm reading unless the blogger is an attractive female. Yep, i'm shallow... who knew? In the last two weeks I have read 5 biographies of attractive female bloggers and 4 of those 5 mentioned something to do with eating a cupcake.
Seriously, these bios are a maximum of 6 sentences. These 4 blogging babes found their passion for baked batter with frosting so important that it ranks among their top qualities they desire their readers to know about who they are as a person.
How could this be?
Are cupcakes 2012's version of what sushi and Mazda 3's were in 2010, VW Beatles were in 2004, and New Kids on the Block were in the late 80's? Or maybe there was one famous blogger somewhere who wrote about a cupcake in her bio and now it's the trendy thing to do? Or maybe it's a marketing ploy by the cupcake industry; they go around to all of the attractive (maybe unattractive too, I wouldn't know... shallow remember?) lady bloggers and give them cupcakes with sprinkles of cocaine on it to get the bloggers hooked so they get a ton of free internet advertising? Genius!
Or...
This Thought Just In: Maybe for some reason I am genetically predisposition to be attracted to girls who love spending more money on a little handheld cake than my sister will spend on my nephew's entire spiderman birthday cake tomorrow?
Yep, it's probably the genetics one.
Well I am glad we got to the bottom of this! What did we learn? We learned that one of the top qualities that I look for in a girl is if she loves the cupcake.
It reminds me of the time that Jerry Seinfeld informed Elaine that she was attracted to a weird guy just because the weird guy couldn't remember anything about her.
Elaine admitted, "But that's so sick!"
To which Jerry replied, "That's God's plan. He doesn't really want anyone to get together."
Funny.
ReplyDeleteSo I won you over again?!
DeleteCupcakes have been trending for a couple years now. Yes, cupcakes are delicious, but I'm wholeheartedly ready for a new trend in the cooking world...And yes, I'm quite aware of how that sounded.
ReplyDeleteYou're in luck! There just so happens to be a up and coming trend just for you cooking folk; adding bacon to EVERYTHING (e.g. B.K. Bacon Sundae)
DeleteYep, cupcakes have been around for a few years now (see Cupcake Wars) but there's a reason. A cake will give you one or two flavors and you can only use one theme to decorate it. Cupcakes, however, will accommodate everyone's taste. Yes, we had cupcakes instead of cake for Marcy's First Communion party...four different flavors and four different frosting's. You can also just pick it up and walk around with it instead of using a fork and plate. So I think your interest in the "cupcake girl" means you're interested in a girl who's diversified...experiencing all that life has to offer....not just settling for the same thing every time....yeah, I know...I'm reaching....lol ! And B.K Bacon Sundae ? Hmmm..some things should never be mixed together ...Ewww ;)
