hit by the dump truck

dumpedI have a friend for whom dumpage just happened.  (Really, people, aren’t we getting a little too old for this?)  Everything was going along swimmingly for her and the beau, and then:  the next thing I know, we’re at ladies night, drowning ourselves in Cosmopolitans and pretending that it’s 2001.

Egads.  My advice, drunken though it might have been, was to fill out every single page of the activity book Dumped!, and mail it to him.  With his address scrawled in blood.  (Kidding about the last part.  But seriously, he is an asshole, and that would not be undeserved.)

With activities like word scrambles (how many phrases can you make out of “screw you?”) and connect-the-dots, it’s like really, really Mad Libs.

If you’d like the occasion to play vindictive and bitter all the way through to catharsis,  then you’re in luck:  this week, misosouper will give 3 lucky readers copies of Dumped! To enter, you need to post a breakup haiku in the comments,  writing either from the giving or receiving end of the split.  (ETA:  entries that are not haiku will be disqualified.)  Best three win the prize.

And if you’re interested in seeing who won the M641 giveaway, that information can be found in the original post’s comments.  (All future contest winners will be notified by e-mail, as usual, and announced in giveaway post’s comments as well.)

the fine print:

Comments will be closed and entries will not be accepted after 11:59 pm EST on Saturday, January 17, 2009.  The winner will be selected on Sunday, January 18, 2009, and notified by e-mail.  Results of the giveaway will be announced on Monday, January 19, 2009.  Multiple entries will not be accepted, and previous giveaway winners are not eligible.  Misosouper, a shopping blog reserves the right to disqualify entries that are incomplete, inaccurate, or considered spam.
