Our friend Shelley emailed us this picture of something she got for Christmas. WE LOVE IT SO MUCH. I immediately started thinking of things to say about it. But I limited myself to telling Shelley that we were going to use it for our next caption contest because it was perfect for us. Perfect! Do you have any idea how much we love cross stitch? And things that make us involuntarily scream out: "THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID!!"
Leave a comment with your caption and we'll pick a winner on Thursday.
That's What She Said...
xo, Kate & Lydia
-----------------------------------------------------------------
There were a ton of totally hilarious captions to this picture but the one that made both Kate and I bust out laughing was the following suggestion made by The Girls:"Somebody give Ryan Seacrest his sign back!"
Which prompted Lydia to create the truly tasteless photo to the right.
We also love these captions:
From Anna: "Better Homes & Gardens introduces a new monthly feature: "Cute Ideas to Perk Up Your Prison Cell!"
From loveandchaosreigns: "So that's why Donald Duck is never wearing any pants."
From the Jenster: "You may leave your package at the back door but DO NOT enter. Wait, are we still talking about the UPS man?"
And Spiralmoon said... "Awww, Grandma!! Do you really have to advertise?!"
We loved this one from Latin Mama because it was a "40 Year Old Virgin" shout out: "Hope your back door is big 'cause I'm gonna put my bike in it...."
And another reason we (and by "we" I mean LYDIA) thought this picture was so funny was that Kate has this exact phrase tattoo'ed on her lower back. Like the smelly pirate hooker she is!

That's what SHE said!
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure no one's using the front door anyway.
ReplyDeleteA note from Goosey Loosey.
ReplyDeletejust be sure to call first so I have time to turn off the lights and hide before you come over.
ReplyDeleteSure, she looked all innocent with her straw hat and sunflowers, but deep down she was a dirty, dirty birdie.
ReplyDelete"Back door guests are best" may be what YOUR signs says, but mine says, "EXIT ONLY"
ReplyDeleteThat's where the party is!
ReplyDeleteAfter dozens of ungrateful goslings, Goosey-Goosey had a new dating philosophy.
ReplyDeleteI feel like a dork to have to point this out, but that is not cross stitch, it's needlepoint. There is a difference, ladies.
ReplyDeleteP.S. @Perpetual Mommy Exhaustion....LMFAO!!!!
I don't have anything clever, but my grandmother had a country-crafty painted sign with that exact saying hanging by her back screen door through most of my childhood. I'm not sure why she eventually took it down - maybe someone clued her in to the filthy "other" interpretation - or maybe she's just getting crotchety in her old age and doesn't want ANY guests! Wait...that sounds kind of wrong too...
ReplyDeleteCause they sneak in the best stuff.
ReplyDeleteAfter trying online dating and blind dates, Lucy Goose decided to try the direct approach, with much greater success.
ReplyDeleteneedlepoint or instructions on where to point one's needle?
ReplyDeleteThey don't call her Goosey-Loosey for nothing!
ReplyDeleteApparently the shrubs had overtaken the front.
ReplyDeleteas my grandma says: "whats good for the goose is good for the gander."
ReplyDeleteBecause only Kerby salesmen and Jehovah's Witnesses use the front door... and you know what we do with them...
ReplyDeleteJust don't come down my chimney.
ReplyDeleteAssuming MOST back doors are off of, or near ones kitchen, "Grab a glass of wine from the T-box for yourself, and one for me too please, and thank you..." :)
ReplyDeleteNow thats the mother goose!
ReplyDeletePerpetual Mommy Exhaustion wins. hahaha!
ReplyDeleteIt was an unfortunate folly when Daisy Duck realized that she had misjudged the size of her sign and therefore ran out of room to complete her "Rant"....Back door guests are best....left to get into someone else's mess!!!
ReplyDeleteWhen Mother Goose completely looses her schmidt and falls off the deep end.
ReplyDelete"Back door guests are the best" but I like the front door more
ReplyDeleteSomebody give Ryan Seacrest his sign back!
ReplyDeleteNo need to knock!
ReplyDeleteBetter Homes & Gardens introduces a new monthly feature: "Cute Ideas to Perk Up Your Prison Cell!"
ReplyDeleteThis takes goosing to a whole new level...
ReplyDeleteMother Goose's evil step-sister.
ReplyDelete"when they're knocking on someone else's door!"
ReplyDeleteAw geeze...
ReplyDelete"No beer goggles required."
"Loosey Goosey and Peter the Piper star in "XXXMother's Goooose."
"TMZ where are they now? Loosey Goosey, pirate whore pole dancer."
"Because Mother can always multi-task."
"...because who knows where that pecker has been?"
Because sometimes "cute" crafty invitations just aren't what they're quacked up to be...
ReplyDeleteA classy, heartfelt gift from one Smelly Pirate Hooker to another.
ReplyDeleteThey may look like sunflowers at first glance...
ReplyDeleteI put a pretty sunflower on my bonnet just for you! And you'll never GUESS what's behind this sign! Ha ha ha quack quack quack!
ReplyDeleteAfter years of debilitating shyness, Gina finally took her therapist's advice and found a way to make her deepest desires known in a delicate and ladylike way.
ReplyDeleteso that's why Donald Duck is never wearing any pants.
ReplyDeleteCleaning out the attic at the Playboy Mansion...
ReplyDeleteIt's not dating, it's not swinging, it's turducken!
ReplyDeleteGoosey Loosey was determined to show up the turducken.
ReplyDeleteBack door friends are best.....so you can use the front.
ReplyDeleteMelanie Crowe
I thinks I saw this ironed onto the back of a pair of panties for sale at www.regretsy.com -- anyhow.... my caption entry... Elton John's favortie baby shower present.
ReplyDeleteWhen Mother Goose feels frisky she goes all the way.
ReplyDeleteHope your back door is big 'cause I'm gonna put my bike in it....
ReplyDelete"You may leave your package at the back door but DO NOT enter. Wait, are we still talking about the UPS man?"
ReplyDelete...'cause they always find the golden egg.
ReplyDeleteOMG, I am never going to be able to enter my house without laughing my ass off ever again!
ReplyDeleteThese are hilarious! (And to be technical...it's PLASTIC CANVAS! *shudder*)
Mother Goose has gone viral. Well, no freaking wonder!
Shelley :D
Grandma didn't understand the onslaught of naughty emails after she posted her new profile pic.
ReplyDeleteDon't ask, don't tell, just check out my needlepoint.
ReplyDeleteYou just can't see them coming. (uh, because they sneak up from behind, ya know?).
ReplyDelete100% effective birth control!
ReplyDeleteToday on Maury: The real Mother Goose, when good nursery rhymes go bad.
