The Humor-Blogs.com Blog

the frogster here. Today I'm crunching the numbers for Mommy Has A Headache. Mommy Has A Headache faired quite well with the reviewers.

The reviewers were madly in love with the template. This must be so, because there weren't 20 comments about how the template caused the reviewer to need to lie down. Look. Below is the only template comment of the bunch:

The design is OK. Pink ain't my thing. But it is uncluttered and easy to navigate. The banner makes me laugh.

There was some speculation by the reviewers that labeling this a humor blog was putting it in the wrong category:

This is a slice of life blog, not a humor blog. Just be what you are.

God I love the ex-pat Brits. This chick rocks.

It is refreshing to read a female blogger's content that isn't kid or family centric. It's also funny and thought-provoking.

Once they got the categorization out of the way, most of the reviewers were satisfied that their funny bone had been tickled, at least a little.

Today I went and she's complaining about using toilets in foriegn lands. Still not laughing. Her voice seems self indulgent and a bit spoiled. A lot of these observations could be amusing, but they are overlong. I kept skimming hoping for a smile or a chuckle or a twist that would make me pause and think.

I like the fact that she doesn't just recycle news stories (and that when she uses news, she ads comments more than 'laugh at this' with a link). Original content/own ideas/own images etc. should count for quite a bit in rating blogs in general.

Overall it was amusing and irreverent, which I like.

I enjoy her dry sense of humor, and only take umbrage at her convoluted style of conveying whatever message she's trying to convey. For instance, a post about her adorable child helping to clean the house ends up with a (funny?) note about an overpriced out-house? Mmmm-kay. My point, which is flushed with excitement at the prospect of being made, is that "transitions" are key to cohesive writing. I may not use any in my own pithy offerings, but that doesn't mean I don't like 'em.

Very long posts that aren't particularly funny.

There's nothing sexier than a funny lady, and EmmaK is a funny lady. I really enjoy reading her naughty posts, even if they run a bit long for my taste.

I do read this blog regularly and have always enjoyed it.

The reviewers mentioned one particular post quite often.

I found one funny post (niche porn) amongst all of the posts I read. Most weren't funny ha-ha, they were funny sad, and that makes me sad. Bitter isn't funny to me.

The porn section killed all interest entirely. Not funny. No thank you.

I would NOT read this blog on a daily basis, but would (and will) definitely check in from time to time. I mean, her Porn Post alone was worth the price of clicking over.

Mommy's Headache has led to a blog that was a hit with our reviewers. Well done, Mommy! Step away from the aspirin and keep on blogging!
