I’m Having a Super Seven Saturday
23 Comments Published by JD October 13th, 2007 in I Blog, I Give and Receive.
OK, Dan at dcr Blogs is determined to make me show off my super vocabulary skillz with his “Super Seven” meme.
The idea is to tag 7 bloggers by writing something about them using a “super” word. Dan tagged his bloggers using words beginning with the letter “A,” so I’m using the letter “B.” THEN, I tag 7 more bloggers to carry on the meme using the letter “C.” Get it? I think Dan explains it better.
Here are seven super bloggers worthy of Super “B” Words:
Canucklehead might seem like a he-man, but I’ll bet he’s sung a berceuse or two in his day.
- I’d like to see Cardiogirl pull a batrachoseps out of her husband’s ear.
- Although Eekie likes art, I would never describe her writing as belletristic.
- I bet Kathy is glad that roller coasters have a bitumastic layer.
- It’s a good thing Miki doesn’t suffer from blepharism, or she’d have trouble knitting this cute hat.
- Random Yak’s latest post might result in a batrachomyomachia with some with readers, but I agree with what he says.
- RT might prefer a budgereegah to this ferocious creature.
And now, to carry on with the Super Seven meme, the following bloggers must find 7 more bloggers to tag with the letter “C.”
(Note: I don’t “know” any of these bloggers, but each of them recently visited my site. Even if they choose not to participate, their blogs are definitely worth checking out.)
- A Blog about Nothing
- Anna at Red as Wake
- Bret at The Ominous Comma
- Chef John at Food Wishes
- Feeling Flirty
- Jeanne at Writer’s Notes
- The Monk
And a bonus eighth blogger:
- Fracas! (I do “know” Fracas, but she gets a bonus link, cuz she’s soooo frac!)

And also, I WANT ONE! Husband is a caramel FIEND 
AAAGGGHHH! AAAGGGHHH! (jams palms of hands into eyes and twists) I just clicked on that word.
There is no way I could pull that thing out of Mr. C’s ear. AAAAGGGGHHHH!
I like that piece of bee art up there, by the way.
Sorry! I probably should’ve put a warning on that link. Well, I still can. Maybe I will. Or not. La la la la la la.
Nice work. Thanks for playing!
I always enjoy a good dcr challenge!
Oh my god. What a great post. There won’t be an exam later, will there? Yikes. And what’d you have to go reminding me of Cardiogirl’s bug experience? And that picture. Excuse me while I go get sick………
Thanks, Kathy! Yeah, poor Cardiogirl. Maybe the picture was a bit much…
Oh dear, during the times when my contacts get all dried out I feel as if I do have blepharism! But I am such a crazy addict for my knitting that I am sure I would definitely continue knitting…maybe with stranger outcomes because of the blinking!
Thanks for including me in this cute meme! I think maybe I’ll have to try this out myself!
This was a fun one, as it wasn’t about ME but about other bloggers. It’d be cool if this actually goes thru the alphabet.
(That hexagonal hat is so cute. I COVET IT!)
While you certainly are dead on about me cantillating a lulaby, I’m timorous that there is one misapprehension. No-one has ever insinuated that I am heraculan. Well, to my knowledge until currently. That being said, it seems like every time I turn around, I’m being mentioned here. You are actually promoting my blog more actively than I am – and for that I am eternally beholden.
eighty-eights,

Bunches of boldly blatant thanks for the link. I’ve tried to cut down on my memeing, but then I don’t so love gratuitous displays of lexiconal prowess.
Hmmmmmm.
I do so. I do so love to display my rock hard and ripped vocabulary guns.
Even if I can’t type.
Ah, but my dear Canucklehead, one need only glance at your “Canucklehead Shootout” picture to see your true proportions!
Brent: Your vocabulary guns are second only to the ripped and toned physique of Canucklehead. Your reluctance to meme is duly noted – and understood.
Gosh.. I’m learning from you, how to “do things so google doesn’t have to”
Namely.. trackbacks.
Wordpress and Google have some issue so unless I go to technorati to see who is linking to me, I don’t. So.. I came here and found out you tagged me… so google didn’t have to tell me.
Like I said, I’m learning.
I’ll be musing on that soon.
JD,
Thanks for the tag! I’ll have to give this one some real thought! (Leave it to Dan to come up with a meme like this one when he can’t think of anything to post!)
But I won’t cavil about it, because at least it does two positive things: 1) It sends us to our dictionaries to learn some new words, and 2) It gets us linking to other bloggers!
Cheers!
Jeanne
Fracas! That’s weird about the trackbacks. I thought it just worked automatically with WordPress. Hmmm. I’m probably not the best person to learn from, as I don’t really know how it works! Anyway, I’m glad you found your way here to see your fabulous link in action!
Hi, Jeanne!
Thanks so much for stopping by. Yes, these memes can be a way out of thinking up content for a post but also a good way to “meet” other bloggers. I love your blog and so was glad for an excuse to tag you. I’ll look forward to your response to the meme! (And it looks like I just got tagged with another one!)
JD,
Thanks for those very kind words! I agree that memes are a great way to get to know other bloggers!
Good luck with the next meme!
Jeanne
I just had to say thanks for the dictionary links.
Monroe: You’re welcome!
Courtney,
I’ve finally completed my entry for this meme! Here’s the URL: http://www.writersnotes.net/seven-super-cwords-for-the-super-seven-meme/. (That’s certainly a load off my mind!)
Take care!
Jeanne
Oops! Sorry JD! Got a few of my names mixed up!
Jeanne
No problem, Jeanne! Understandable, considering the nature of memes. Thanks for “playing”–I’m heading off to look right now…
