Thanks to Goth Mom, Mina Lobo and David Macaulay for co-hosting The Big Reveal, a hop-within-a-hop. Today we're revealing our themes for the A-Z Challenge. To find out what everyone else is revealing, click here. wow, that kinda sounds kinky.
My theme this year:
The A-Z of 'OLOGIES
For the month of April, I want to celebrate all those crazy people who research the most interesting, bizarre, and obscure things in this world. Did you know there is a science of stupidity? People actually study stupidity. I'm thinking these researchers are geniuses. Looking at how the world is turning out, they'll always have an endless supply of material to pull from. Just turn on the TV and you'll see what I mean. :p Anyway, this field of study is called . . . _ology. Ha! You'll have to come back in April to find out! Plus, I'll be keeping my posts pretty short this year, I'm talking Matthew MacNish A-Z 2012 short. (;
Ok, I guess I better go sign up for this bloghop now. I did everything backwards today. *checks shirt*
I've been trying to do my posts in advance and keep them short but can't help rambling on and on. Like the idea for your posts.
ReplyDeleteWill you reveal any of their findings? I'd like to know the percentage of stupid people who say the phrase "Hey ya'll, watch this!"
ReplyDeleteGood theme, Elise!
I'm with you on this, Alex!
DeleteEndless supply, indeed :)
ReplyDeleteYour theme sounds very interesting, looking forward to reading your posts!
There is a research team for everything. I bet someone researches snail snot.
ReplyDeleteOk, now I must know this ____ology! :) There is an abundance of stupidity in this world and I just shake my head at it. :) Sounds interesting. I'll be sure to stop by!

LOL studying stupidity, damn there is one career that will never run dry.
ReplyDeleteGreat theme, Elise! I'm prone to stupidity. Maybe reading your posts about the study of it will help me. :)
ReplyDeleteSounds like a very original theme, you have chosen to enlighten us with during the challenge! Looking forward to it!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds great! I look forward to reading all the _ologies. My favorite _ology is paleontology, which is the focus of my A to Z challenge posts!
ReplyDeleteI think this is the most amazingly unique theme I've found so far! definitely back for your "study cases"
ReplyDeleteYou crack us up! We'll be stopping by to read your posts for sure!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great theme! I'm looking forward to it. :)
ReplyDeleteI like your theme! And I'm trying to keep my posts short, too, though a couple were hard!
ReplyDeleteThat's terrific Elise. I certainly wouldn't miss this for the world. Love the ologies. :)
ReplyDeleteI need all the ology help I can get. No, Seriously. ;)
ReplyDeleteI love this theme! Ologies are awesome :D
ReplyDeleteMood: I rather enjoy your ramblings. (:
ReplyDeleteAlex: Seeing how stupidity is never ending, trying to quantify it would be like trying to find the exact value π.
Mark: Thanks Mark. Right back atcha!
Diane: Actually . . . (;
Writebackwards: Thanks LadyJai! Stupidity is an abundant force that has a strong following unfortunately, lol! Glad to meet you via A-Z
Pat: No kidding! :D

Carolyn: I can't wait. A-Z is going to be great. (=
Penny: I love meeting other ologists. Your theme is going to be great!
Adriana: Thank you Adriana! I hope you'll enjoy it, looking forward to seeing you in class. (;
Dani Jax: Thanks ladies!! =)

Oh No, Let's Go... Crazy
Excellent idea! I'm doing encyclopedia trivia...how big of a lazy cheater am I?
ReplyDeleteI should do this blog hop. My A to Z theme is the Clone Wars.
ReplyDeleteOlogies? Super cool.
ReplyDeleteApril is going to be such fun! Excellent idea, can't wait!
ReplyDeleteHi Elise .. I shall definitely enjoy your ...ologies - great, excellent idea Mrs Scientist! Cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteGood theme. And there's no end to stupid, so studying it is job security. Brilliant. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat theme! And I definitely appreciate short. :)
ReplyDeleteSounds like lots of fun, Michelle. I'll be stopping in frequently.
ReplyDeleteUh-oh! Joy has mixed up the blogs...
DeleteI like your theme E! There's a never-ending supply of stupidity in this world.
Jeremy: I like weird. Glad you stopped by! :D
ReplyDeleteElizabeth: No, I'd call you someone with exceptional natural capacity of intellect-a genius!
Michael: I was hoping you'd do another fetish type theme. :P
Charity: :D
Yolanda: Me too!
Hilary: Thanks you Hilary! I just hope I can finish all the posts in the 10 days that are left!
L.G. I know! I thought so too. We'd never get employment studying smart people.
Christine: Yes, short is good, except whey you're playing basketball.
Joy: I sure hope so! (=
Michelle: No worries, I've been called worse. (; Actually, I like being called Michelle. All the cool girls are named Michelle.
I'm backing into the A-Z reveal, too. I won't "reveal" until tomorrow. I'm looking forward to finding out what that -ology word is!
ReplyDeleteHi Elise,
ReplyDeleteYou can relax now. Yes, I'm finally here with one of my eagerly anticipated, much loved, treasured, cherished and highly collectable comments. Or something like that! :)
Ah yes all those ologies. That will be interesting to see. Penny the Jack Russell dog and modest internet superstar studied canineology at the Jack Russellian Institute.
Have fun with the A to Zed! We shall be satirising it. In the nicest of ways, of course!
Your starstruck fan,
Gary :)
That's such a fun idea for Blogging A to Z... I think your posts would reveal all sorts of quirky anthropological stuff about our culture. I wonder if there's a word for the study of social media and blogging.
ReplyDeleteThis is a cool idea. I know there are actual science departments funded to study the many uses of pickles. Pickles! Can't wait to read your posts next month.
ReplyDeleteLord, just about anyone who has to deal with the public must be qualified in the study of stupidity! Dig the theme, Elise. :-)
ReplyDeleteAwesome theme, Elise! Your AZ posts would rock!
ReplyDeletebeano!
ReplyDelete...last i checked, there were still 26 letters in the english alphabet - no clue how one gets to use one each day... for 30 days
Fun! And short is perfect. I'm going for that as well. I'm trying to write the 1st ten before April 1st. Glad you joined the hop, even if you did it backwards:D
ReplyDeleteLike the way you think. You've got a topic with an endless supply of things to say about it, but you plan to say a little bit each day! I mean, that's how you keep 'em coming back. :) I'm sure I will be.
ReplyDeleteawesome theme!
ReplyDeletei'm excited to hear about all the ologies!
How incredibly creative! I love this idea and look forward to following you through your challenge! :)
