Every where you go are slackers,
Lots of folks you know are slackers.
Wouldn't you like to be a slacker, too?
I'm such a slacker I'm late for my own Mojo Friday slacker diary! But I have a reason. The most excellent Lusty emailed me yesterday asking if I could take the Mojo diary today, but I didn't get around to reading her email till just now. Oh, wait. That's not even a good excuse, much less a good reason.
Jump down with me when you get around to it, and let's talk about excuses for being late.
I was late because a tree fell on my house/road. Works in Western Washington.
I was late because the power went out and my alarm didn't go off. Eh, weak sauce.
Traffic - not so much. Those pesky internets can confirm whether there were traffic problems or not.
Police activity blocked my street. Good one, just don't use it too often.
Space ship blocked my driveway. Nope.
Time to share your best slacking excuses and garner some mojo at the same time. Hmmmm. Multi-tasking. Do slackers do that? But first, the fine print:
Mojo Friday Guidelines
- If you comment you have to recommend all comments. (in order to receive mojo you have to give mojo. It's only good mojo manners.)
- Everything you say may be taken as a joke (so if you ask a question, expect a silly answer)
- You must recommend the diary (and pimp it unapologetically)
- You don't have to comment to recommend.
- You can't steal MK's idea (right, like that ain't goin' to happen)
- Please, no pictures or YouTubes until after 300 comments. Now, after 300, use a little common courtesy and be responsible in the number.
- Mojo mojo mojo mojo, mojo mojo mojo.
- TexDem (our benevolent sponsor) and MKinTN (that's me) are not bound by the guidelines. Heh.
Mojo Friday Time Shifters Goals (watered down from Mojo Friday Goals)
A. At least 40 different commenters and 300 comments by 2:00 PM PST.
B. 50 recommends for each comment, at least.
C. Get on the Recommended List (this requires some strategic planning by you guys, refer to guideline #3)
D. At least 50 diary recommends. 100 would be better, spread the word.
E. And always, fun fun fun.
F. Have at least 75% average participation rate as seen here in the Mojo Friday Postgame Comment by MK.
G. Have at least 10 kossacks over 90% participation (see here for some tips).
H. Overload the servers with recommends, not to mention dominate Top Comments Mojo list. (we do tend to mess with the site with all of our recommends at one time)(also, to dominate the Top Comments Top Mojo we need at least 50 comments with over 200 recommends, see guideline B)
I. That's enough for now. (Have a suggestion? Post it.)
