The Top 10 Awesomely Luvvie Posts of 2013
2013 has been a FANTAWESOME (fantastic and awesome) year on AwesomelyLuvvie.com. My traffic tripled from last year, with more people discovering my work and more opportunities came my way. I definitely hit my jig just thinking about it.
As a space that covers pop culture, TV/movies, technology and social issues, my blog is where I come to rant and rave about what I care about, what I enjoy and what I’m about (and I created a Luvvie Glossary)! So it’s just dope to know that I can connect with folks on a grand scale through my randomness! And your HILARIOUS comments have made writing here a blast!
Below are the top 10 posts I wrote this year based on how many people read it (not counting any of the Scandal stuff), in case you missed it:
1. #PaulasBestDishes: Best Twitter Hashtag Ever – After details of Paula Deen’s bigotry surfaced through a lawsuit, Twitter roasted her for hours with this hashtag.
2. USA Today Called The Best Man Holiday a “Race-Themed” Film – Because any movie with Black people has to be about race, right? FAIL. O__o
3. When the Internet Calls You Teef Keef and Teef Sweat, You Lost – This dude not only tricked folks into thinking his daughter was kidnapped, but he had the nerve to have veneers in his mouth that looked like white refrigerators. The roast of his teeth made me laugh until I cried. He was also called Mouthful Luther King, Jr. and Toother Vandross. LMAO!
4. Halloween Has a Blackface Issue and It’s a Racism Problem – Because this year, folks more than TRIED IT with their Halloween costumes. Blackface was EVERYWHERE but it is more than a Halloween issue.
5. The Bitstrips Abuse on Facebook Must Stop – Besides the fact that people are posting Bitstrips cartoons every 4 seconds on FB, if you’re gonna create a cartoon of yourself, make it look like you.
6. Michelle Obama Let a Protester Have It and I Approve! – While speaking at private fundraiser, Michelle Obama was interrupted by a protester who had demands for the POTUS. But FLOTUS was not there for that. OOP.
7. Jessica Alba’s Honest Company is Trying to Bully Honest Toddler – Honest Company asked Honest Toddler to delete its social media accounts or it “could get costly.” Now they’re blocking Honest Toddler’s trademark app. SHAME!
8. Stages of Twitter Dealing with a Beyoncé Event – Every time Beyoncé does anything (sneeze, take a pic, perform), Twitter descends into multi-hour long messfests, with her stans dragging any and everyone.
9. Falling is a Habit for this Poor Graduate – The moral of this story: Learn to embrace flats, especially when you’re walking across a football field. And only rock shoes you can walk well in.
10. Whose Mighty Mouse Swag Brother is This? Featuring Roast From My Readers – Because rocking jeggings and a lycra bodysuit in real life when you’re built like the Incredible Hulk and Mighty Mouse’s baby is probably not a good idea.
So check out what you’ve missed, share the ones you like (on Twitter, Facebook, Google+, Tumblr etc.), and keep telling folks to check this site out. Your support is why my words have travelled further than ever before and I’m so thankful for it. You’ve all really allowed Awesomely Luvvie to become an eHome.
Many of you have told me that I’m your friend in your head. Well, the feeling is mutual. You know we go together! *HUGS*
See you in 2014, y’all! I’m back and ready to write!

Pick a fave?! That’s like asking me to choose sweet plantain or rice! #miluvAlladem LOL
Awww, Luvvie we had a good year together (in my head you my home girl)… you give me life and love shoes and social media just as much as I do! Thanks for sacrificing my sanity by live tweeting 50 Shades of a Hot Mess and watching reviewing all those award shows (that you may or may not watch all of) so I don’t have to.
I am so shocked that the sonnet that was the vaneer-scraping of Romeo Rose was not included in this year’s highlights!!
Can’t pick just one. You wit slays me every time. I can’t wait for 2014 to get here so you can start posting again.
Girl, we go together….end of story.
We must never forget your very best posts of the year: Friday Scandal recaps. I be posted like a fiend waiting for my fix.
I look forward to you making almost lose my job from inappropriate laughter in 2014.
Yeah…I’m one of your Scandal recap fans! My absolute favorite day in the internet world is Fridays solely because of your recaps. You completely rock, girl!
Paula’s Best Dishes was hilarious!! I bet that the person who runs her Twitter account was mad. That and the post about Michelle LaVaughn Robinson belong in the Hall of Fame.
You make my day! I just love reading this website…you give me a reason to live. .then you slay me…
You should submit this to http://webtrist.com/Network/comedy/ and find new content
Paula’s best dishes by far is my fav. Black twitter may make me roll my eyes sometimes but they are the wittiest when it comes to coming up with hashtags about popular culture. They including myself went it!
Paula’s Best Dishes and the FLOTUS are tops, BUT love the throwback pic of Teddy P in all his furry glory. I read that with tears streaming down my face.
Luvvie
How could you not put the post with the picture of the baby that looked 65. I sent that around my office and people could not stop LOL
of the ones you listed, my top picks are the Paula Deen one and the one about FLOTUS and the heckler….I still LOL thinking about what you wrote about how POTUS’ last press conference should end.
Paula’s Best Dishes slays my soul everytime. I still can’t breeve after seeing Nigs in a Blanket….
How did I miss #3?!?!?! I am CRYING at my desk with laughter – I know my co-workers think I have finally lost it!
A very dear friend of mine introduced me to your site (via Dumbest Tweets of 2012) and have yet to be disappointed! Sharp, hilarious, real, and witty. This is an internet treasure 🙂 So moral of the story: friends introduce other friends to awesomelyluvvie.com!
