WhatIMeant2Say Spring Membership Drive
As WhatIMeant2Say enters the final three days of our Spring membership drive, your decision to support becomes even more important. So far this Spring, a Wonderbuttload of readers have subscribed to this blog. If you are one of them, THANK YOU! We are currently processing your pledge and will be sending out member cards and thank you gifts within a few weeks composing a rap song to the tune of “Edelweiss” in your honor.
If you have NOT yet chosen to follow this stupendously humorous blog, please do so during our drive. Our director, Mrs. Cap’n Firepants, made a pledge to have 6 million subscribers by the end of Spring. The crazy woman has since been on medical leave, but we are hoping that 5.99 million people will take pity on us for having had to put up with her for 9 months.
If you would like to sample some of our excellent programming before committing to a subscription, here are some suggestions:
- If You Like Dogs – Advice on Interior Design
- If You Like Kids – Who Do You Think Pulls the Sleigh?
- If You Like Star Wars – And With Also You
- If You are Somewhat Indecisive About How Much You Like Your Spouse – Pole Envy
Your decision is extremely important to the future of WhatIMeant2Say! You can maintain your commitment to quality radio programming mediocre blogging by clicking on the E-Mail Subscription button on the left margin. Thank you from all of us at Texas Public Radio WhatIMeant2Say. We wish you good listening luck on KSTX WhatIMeant2Say!
Sincerely,
Acting Director

Dear Wonderbutt, while we’re already subscribers who look forward to each of your new posts (we even read the dead rubber ones), this post is so funny it makes me want to subscribe all over again! Maybe we could hire you to do some marketing for us? Of course, we’d have to pay you in (home-made) doggy biscuits! x
Thanks for being a loyal reader. This job would be no fun without you! Okay, it’s not really a job, but you still make it more worthwhile!
Ah, we girls can dream that someday someone will pay us to do this!
Can I make multiple accounts just to help with this? No, that would be lying and wouldn’t actually help you… I will put up flyers around my school!
I like those ideas! Of course – not the lying one. Well, maybe a little. If I didn’t know you were lying, I would be really pumped by my sudden bump in readership!
You would have me again if I wasn’t already following you!
I wish more people felt that way!
Phew! Good thing I am already pulling my weight around here. I have been subscribing for awhile now…
I hereby absolve you from having to read any more of my membership pleas!
Good luck with achieving your target of 6 million subscribers. I am sure it is achievable. I do hope you have properly thought through the consequences of so many subscribers. Responding to 6 million comments per post will be a challenge but one I know that you will rise to 🙂
Bassa, you should know me by now! I never think anything through!
We’ve seen “Edelweiss” in these parts before, haven’t we? And if we have, you were probably thrilled Christopher Plummer won an Oscar.
Very observant, my friend! I was thrilled, though I still have not had a chance to see The Artist.
We’re looking forward to the rap! 🙂
Bella and DiDi
I’m just writing the lyrics. Vanilla Ice said he would perform it for me. My backup is Eminem.
We can’t wait! 🙂
We look forward tot he rap tune!! You are doing a great job Wonderbutt! 🙂 We are proud subscribers and love this blog. 🙂
Keep up the great job! 🙂
Thank you so much for those words of support, Chuck and Collies!
Also a proud subscriber to the Firepants’ family antics!
I look forward to the rap song to the tune of Edelweiss. I’m having a bit of trouble wrapping my imagination around the idea.
