Ermahgerdify Yourself!

     Clearly you've all seen the Ermahgerd meme by now.  If not...well, I can't even finish that sentence because it's rude.  Anyway, the brilliant woman behind Wub Boo Mummy decided to tweak the meme (mainly because we all have pictures where we look as ridiculous as the Ermahgerd girl, and it's only fair.)  She bravely and selflessly took it upon herself to Ermahgerdify her old pictures.  And the courageous Robyn at Hollow Tree Ventures followed suit.  And, since I try to always be doing the same thing as the cool kids, I'm jumping on the bandwagon.  I'm a joiner.  (And, I'll have you know, I didn't have to look very far for these.  They were hanging on my wall.  I have no shame.)

Yes, those shirts do say "Cheerleading or my boyfriend,"
and those jackets are suede...and luxurious.

We're not even going to discuss my bangs or why I wasn't wearing a shirt.

It's really hard to spell 'rad' in Ermahgerd.
     So, anyway, that's all the public humiliation I can stomach for one day.  Who's next.  You ladies (and gentlemans) better man up!

  1. I'm wishing I had any old picture of myself. You're lucky you're able to publicly humiliate yourself. These are great!

    1. A) Thanks, but I'm afraid that you had to be a member of the 1992 Tigrett Middle School cheerleading squad to possess such an awesome shirt. (And I was for about six weeks, until I decided they were all lame.) B) Take deep breaths into a paper bag, if that's still something people do. C) Right?! And, I would like to point out that my shoes match my skirt.

    1. I think I could see Pluto with those things. Which definitely helped me hunt my prey, so I could eat them with my gnarly snaggle teefs!

  4. I'm cracking up! I'm so delighted by this new-found Ermahgerd language that I feel like converting everything to it. I don't know this meme...what do you do exactly? I kind of get the gist...

    1. Look up Ermahgerdify Yourself on Facebook. Wub Boo Mummy started a page for all the shenanigans. And there's even a helpful link to translate into Ermahgerd. ;)

    1. I know - there were some great ones too from the late 60s / early 70s. I can still see a lot of them in my head. If only I could link that up to a scanner ...
