Deb said...

What a great idea, dressing up your pumpkin! Where can I buy that costume?

Rick said...

There are a great number of cleaning products under that sink.

Hey Anna, you Writer, Comedian, Innocent Bystander you. (Not very sure about the the third label there) I did my best to play along with your Meme challenge. I even linked you up and everthin'.

I hope you're happy.

Love,

Rick

P.S. Word verification this time... "pribabsy." Mean anything to you?

Ok. I think I have your bag's twin in my utility room. Either that, or the cats just had a freaking hay day with it.

That pumpkin looks like a Detroit Lions fan at a home game. :)

Hey, at least the Unknown Pumpkin can get another job. I heard the Unknown Comic is working at the Reseda Ralph's bagging groceries( okay, I don't really know that to be true as I just made it up).

poor pumpkin, all naked now. very sad. ;p

Natalia said...

Everyone needs a day job.

We haven't even picked pumpkins yet...am I a bad Mom?

Will you think better of me if I mention that if I'd gotten'm too soon they'd be balls of cooked pumpkin pie filling because of the heat?

I'm not sure why I'm asking these deep philosophical questions on your comment pop up...or how to spell philosophical...

FYI: holit

not very funny...litho would've been good though.

Santa Monica is definitely not my hood.

OMG - you are a hoot!

OneZenMom said...

I'm giving one of my pumpkins this year a Tom Selleck mustache, inspired by your recent homage to that great facial appendage. But hubby insists on carving up the orange orbs no sooner than Thursday. So they will be "fresh". Whatever. Jerk makes me wait 'till Dec. 25 to open presents, too. Spoilsport.

The Hussy Housewife said...

It is a tuff world out there for a brown bag. Always getting threatened to be replaces with a green bag or younger, newer plastic one. Maybe you should try sending him to rehab...that should just start his career? Maybe he got hooked on huffing the solvents under the sink?

AngiDe said...

I think I know that guy...

P.S. thanks for the add!

MammaDucky said...

Man, now I have reusable tote bag guilt. I feel the brown paper bag's pain, man. Send him to me, I'll make him into one helluva Indian vest for the kids. There is life after Unknown Comic Pumpkin. Damn Hollywood and their typecasting.

nikkicrumpet said...

HAH...only you..comedy with a brown paper sack! And it's seasonal comedy to boot. You're my hero!

Reddirt Woman said...

I tried to spend my seven minutes watching youtube, but I couldn't get it pulled up... I probably put something in the address wrong. I'll try again.

Word verification describes me -

BTW- I like Santa Monica. I used to have relatives there, but it has been many years since I was last there.

MuseSwings said...

Yep - a star one day and just an old bag the next. Cute!

Michelle said...

LOL! I haven't seen anything relating to the Unknown, in a long time.......very clever. :)

Mer said...

You have inspired me. From now on we are NOT carving pumpkins at my house.

We are cutting paper bags.

I'm sure my kids will thank you! :D

word verification: hystated. Perhaps that's what it's called when you bui. (blog under the influence..)

You lucky girl you, I'm giving you a blog award. I think you're a riot! :D

KiKi said...

Poor Unknown Bagged Pumpkin Comic...one lousy gong and [wait for it...]

...his world turned upside down.

Baddum-dum. [gongggg]

Rhea said...

haha

I keep my recycling under the sink too...but in a box. We go through a lot of recyclables. :o)

Bill said...

Oh my gawd. That poor pumpkin. Now I'm so depressed. That's it? That's life for a pumpkin? I always thought they went to pumpkin pie!

Lisa (aka) French said...

You crack me up;) The unknown comic was funny as he-- back in the day;) French

horatio salt said...

hey, if you put the fridge picture first and the halloween picture second, you'd have the makings of a hit screenplay. the pitch: there's this bag, see, he starts out humble, a real nobody, gets no respect, but he's got big dreams, so he busts outta the cold and chases his dream from door to door. he meets up with this pumpkin and they hit the road. it's a buddy pic, i see will smith as the paper bag, seth rogen as the pumpkin, and thandie newton as the babe who answers the first door they knock on when they go trick or treating.

jori-o said...

Now your word verification is rolin. Which is what you nake me do. On the floor. As I am laughing out loud at your wittiness (is that even a word?)

Melodie said...

At least he still has a job, right? You could have just given him the boot and stuffed him inside one of his brothers.

Personally, I think it had another 15 in 'em. LOL

Sparky said...

'They' say that Hollywood is a horrible She *itch. 'They' must be right! [ha ha] Love your blog! It's so creative and funny. I laughed so hard I wanted to slap my mama. [lol] ♥ ∞
