thanks be to blog

HI BEST FRIEND TOILET PAPER.

117. Do I have to make a video to prove that now too?

Ah gad. You can pay by debit now. I am going to order so much shit now. I have never had a credit card in my entire life. I am a baby infant why do you even read this thing?

I am on a strict fast food diet and I highly un-recommend it. I wonder what garbage we will feast on today.

I have the most crazy insane story to share about a woman who screamed at me all dinner long at shoeless joe’s and threw food at me, she was drunk and insane, but that sneaky kind of insane when you’re not sure and in the end you figure it out. I was fuming and starving. Would you tap a sleeping lion? Well she did. I had been getting slammed all day by haters then we went to that garbage restaurant to slum some wings even though the last time we were there we were so humongously dissed I told the owner’s wife we were SO not coming back and meanwhile the guy is playing pool and watching this entire shit going down and doing nothing. I didn’t flip out because I knew she’d skip out on her tab so i gave her my card and said I might write about this incident and you might learn something about it, she was screaming at me that I was a whore, a stripper, my hair dye job made me a zanza (she meant zanzibar the strip club) we stayed in the bar vicinity longer while I screamed at her like Skeletor that I would destroy her and she fucked with the wrong woman. She is the one who should have been evicted, it was a pride war too like I am not leaving this booth that I love because of you so that’s why the yelling was prolonged and I inevitably had to cave. COOL SERVICE! I thought about how violent and lippy I could get without being charged. She THREW FOOD AT ME and then said I threw food at her, we had no food to throw and didn’t even get drinks yet. Impossible. I didn’t make a stink to get anything comped from that owner cos I knew I would rip them to pieces on the internet instead. I was seething and shaking with rage all the while this piece of human garbage (who turns out left behind jail papers, IS a thief) spat vitriol at me and made us afraid like the dude she was with might beat us up, or take Teacher and therefore I couldn’t spit on her. She had her pint in her hand and I knew she would slosh it on me, she held it wobblingly menacingly. I was like is this happening?

We went to the other side of the restaurant and she continued her tirade. She was on a date in there earlier, that dude left (rejected) and she cozied up to a stranger, desperate and gross, who was rubbing her fat stomach that was out in the open when we sat down by mistake right there and she looks over at me sneers and says JEALOUS!? In this drunk and skanky sailorette voice. I stared fire at her while she continued talking at me. I was rage level starving already and we had a nice walk over together and were happy about our decision to drink hurricanes on wing night.

And I actually wasn’t going to write about this incident because I have been shrouded in negativity lately it is making me sick. I live tweeted all of it cos I was just flabbergasted. A lush came in, her kind of person, they shake hands and then I watch and hear her loudly cuss me out to this new guy. Unbelievable. No one is doing anything. I already know and have a complex that I set people off. I already screamed at her that she was a cunt and should do some sit ups and to KEEP EATING (she had food all over her mouth) and got up in her face, a table of frat boys all got up to watch it, it felt like the restaurant was on our side but I wasn’t sure because still no one was intervening other than the bartender, and just barely.

And so, like in every situation like this, I turned in to my brother. I slipped my last business card in to my pocket, I went to the bathroom, I informed teacher I had some unfinished business to attend to. You do not fuck with the minx and get away with it. I wasn’t entirely sure I was going to do this and all signs pointed to danger and red flag but I am not a pussy, I was shaking from nerves and adrenaline while I washed my hands in the sink in that shit hole bathroom. I walked up to them, pressed my card into the bar in front of her and said now I may write about this blabbity blah and I’m better than a stripper I am a burlesque dancer. The dude had already apologized to Teacher in the bathroom, I made him follow along behind to investigate, so I walked back to our table, took a deep breath, turned around and marched over to her. She had her pack of smokes in her hand put it down, picked up my card and smushed it into her dip. She was previously making fun of me saying I was a writer.

So, I said in to the back of her head You should totally read it, I’m not sure exactly because I was in the middle of punching her! The very thing I didn’t want to do. It was a teeny charlie horse, meant to be a tap like hello because she didn’t look at me once but was going bwah bwah bwah or something. The beauty was, everyone ignored that I did it but so must have known. She went bananas of course but no one had her back, like I knew they wouldn’t. She screamed for a solid ten minutes all kinds of hysteria about me to the bartender while I watched smugly from the diningroom and every time she barked at or lunged toward me I cupped my hand to my ear and pretended I was deaf and confused. And then they dragged her ass out of there. And then they brought her papers over and I took multiple photos of it and then my server said who cares I am quitting after the holidays. At certain points I was mulling over whether we would dine and dash but I didn’t want to screw over this kid. So I gave him a big tip instead.

Don’t scream obscenities at people in restaurants and leave your jail papers behind. Teacher said to her to get some self esteem, she was queen of the bar before we arrived and then felt threatened, I didn’t even have a chance to give her stink eye, my ass was not in the seat 2 seconds (I am not even exaggerating) before she screamed JEALOUS!? at me.

Then I went home to more haterade from the internet and woke up to some more too.

Peace!

The Stella and Raymi show go on the road

Stella took me for a walk cos she was going cuckoo over all this judgment from the cats and it was making her stir crazy and like, they don’t know her man! If she wants to laze around all goddamn day and talk about herself then that’s her choice and every right. So, we hit the road. Also mommy was out of coffee.

Prepare for battle.

Stella sensed this was going to be a longer walk than just the typical sprint around the park, which it was going to be initially til I got outside and realized how humid it was. I brought my umbrella and it only started down-pouring once we were on the last sidewalk stretch home.

I saw her butt pucker and knew it was time for the magic to happen.

Haha yuppies, I didn’t clean up after her cos I noticed a HUGE GIANT PILE beside her so out of spite I left it be. She went again on Queen street and I picked it up cos there were witnesses. A lot of dog people do not pick up after their dogs I think it is kind of like picking your nose ahaha I dunno, I don’t care and if you have a problem with it, bleh. I pick her shit up more than I don’t it’s just once in awhile who cares, winter is here.

At least I admitted it. Oooh those nails. Fierce.

See how I can’t walk in a straight line to the Gladstoner? when we are degenerates late for brunch we have to drag and walk each other over like total babies in gale force winds that swoop this street, walk in the opposite direction of the gladstone and then back again. It’s not long but when you like shortcuts and can see it RIGHT THERE and you are starving your balls off and totally hung and yeah, lazy sloth problems. It makes that breakfast english muffin that much more delicious though. Oh and half my friends can never remember how to get to where we live cos they usually come over pisswasted at 2 in the morning by trolley car cab drunk vortex who even knows and when they leave are like, where am I?

Condos sprouting up all around us. I like this one it’s so sleek and green and empty-looking. People who live in condos are usually not standing in the windows of them for some reason. Out working, paying off those mortgages or something.

I looked stupid and I could barely see and I got stared at a lot cos of the camera around my neck or because I looked like I was incogneato. Did you like my pun? I thought that up when I was under the Duff bridge.

I have to kind of drag her at this point because she does not like to leave the yuppie bubble. Peopl with dogs get stared at extra because you are two moving somethings coming down the street and I’m normally a stared-at object anyway because, just because okay, and then Stella sprints off terrified and neurotic cos I am the only one who walks her (on these longer excursions) and I have no idea how to even take care of myself and am not a dog person so we are a walking spectacle of stupid. It is a nice life.

Sometimes I have to pretend to be blind to get out of trouble with her. I always force walk ourselves in to places we shouldn’t be and she cannot relax. This corner of Dufferin and Queen is in particuar, hell. There is no room on the sidewalk, and if I am coming back from that side of Parkdale oh you can for-fuckinget anyone giving a shit about me and my poor dog on the sidewalk. It can get scary. No one moves out of my way if I am walking up that hill because they are at the front of the bus line and HATING LIFE. The Sufferin bus is called that for a reason. So I have to walk on to the road and dodge possible bikes and cars swerving to and fro because civilians will not move for me. Should I write a letter to the Mayor? Hi Rob, remember me? You did tell me to drop by City Hall at some point/ anytime.

Ha.

We keep our cool and let them see us for a bit, then we go fuck this and part our way through politely.

Some people are afraid of dogs, I think we look pretty friendly.

Stella is more afraid of them. Out of that clustery intersection she gets a bit better.

But mostly not really, she speeds up and we walk at a good marchy clip. Lots of people smile at her, we clothesline them, they still smile. Everybody just wants to interact in the isolating city I think and a dog is a connector, a pipeline to making that happen and I see that people appreciate it, even when we strangle them with her leash and shit in their storefront plant beds. Stella & Raymi 2011 FTW! Do you think this would make his ex-wife insane?

Someone has to walk her and give her love. Someone said that I was selfish. Pfft. Dogwalkers get paid. I pick up her shit for free. That is love. If teacher is with me I do not pick it up. I stand there and make funny commentary while he does.

Almost there. Today we are walking to Starbucks at Dovercourt because we didn’t feel like going to Liberty Village. We talked it over and decided it would be simpler to just walk to Dovercourt. We also have to remind ourselves to write to Tassimo and suck up for more inserts so that we don’t have to go on another coffee dog walk again for a few weeks.

What?

My Durex ad was filmed in/up there, third floor left window, it looks out to the bridge and the Go train going by and car alarms messed with filming, well, temporarily paused it. That ad is still playing all over the webs.

Those are the funniest unsafest looking cars ever. No thanks. Maybe once to film it and make fun of it and get baked and be like woah a bubble that is moving but then it would go horribly instantly awry cos I’d have an anxiety attack from the enclosed space and scared from the teeniness. Don’t you agree?

Ok lets get through these it’s dark now and I am hungry.

What is the name of this bar?

I like their decorative junk.

There were lipstick lesbos in the window so then I sang that out loud lesbeeeee-ins, in tha win-doe! Well on my way home I did cos they were still there. I had a skip in my step cos the fresh air did me some good brain mojo. The dog was soaked and muddy.

And hating absolutely all of this. She’s gotten chubbier ever since Jenny told me she was too skinny and I stopped running with her to the park so that’s double bad. I don’t care if you hate this lazy ass you are a dog and dogs walk and if the dog whisperer were here he’d whisper all kinds of crazy.

Nice work.

Stella is too cool for the Beac.

Oh the stories out of this place. Every loveable degenerate louse friend of mine has a funny anecdote about The Beaconsfield I think it will be a holiday tradition at least at one point to get trashed here as friends I don’t want to know my name anymore that’s how trashed. Effective signage Beacsters.

Too cool for here too but I have trained Stella to slow her roll when we jog by to check and be checked out by smooth patio criminals when it’s patio season.

Interesting and good to know.

Sometimes she is a little reindeer, cow coloured reindeer. She gets spottier in the winter Teacher said. Ok sure whatever.

Not today Stella I can’t tie you up without it being a big deal, we are going out for coffee and that only. I have done ZERO Christmas shopping. Teach is late so I bet he is buying me a present right now.

She went again. I picked it up this time.

Everything is cool Stella. She made my umbrella knock my coffee all over the place as I untied her and I am pretty sure the starbucks nerds were making fun of me. Once again my many public displays of humiliation courtesy of Stella.

Ahh everything is normal again. A dude I have seen twice out the window doing his laundry passed me in front of 69 vintage and we smiled at each other. I have a street crush on him. He was walking with a crazy person though so it didn’t seem like a good time to talk not that I would. He looked like a hipster in the scene that I am not a part of and his pants are too high, and then I wrote a tweet inspired by his flood pants, which I think are perfect. I also spelt problems wrong in that hashtag and I left it so that my haters can be delighted.

I wished I could capture my reflection better because this conceited walk is half about me too, it’s not the Stella show all the time.

I’ve never drunk in this bar. I went on a date with the guy who does or did their karaoke though. I can’t handle moustaches that aren’t attached to beards, he looked like a hipster John Leguizamo devil. We were equally disinterested in one another.

LOVE pastel rainbow colours. I spelt that Raymbo by mistake.

Creepy, dirty, dusty, uninspired.

I will be the judge of that. I think that’s Nunu’s sister who runs this ethiopian joint.

I looked like an Amish billy goat gruff wizard ahh cool. I like being a reject.

Almost home dude. That handful of dog food I give you will taste extra delicious.

The new Duff bridge is very european and a major RIDE trap. The skate park pipes beside it is pretty neat and nice of the city to do that.

I don’t want to know what goes on in there.

Someone got towelled off and the fire flipped on who’s a goofy stooge. I hope she doesn’t barf this year everyone overfeeds her cos she does stupid eyes on them and my nana could not stop giving her food and I know that I sure as hell will be binge eating my face off. Merry Christmas everyone I am going to be violently ill now. Avoid turkey skin, which, I can’t.

I had eyebag potion on beneath my glasses the whole time and no you can’t see it.

I better write a christmas list. Or figure out the ultimate store to get everyone gift certificates from and soon.

And vacuum that glitter up. Bechnique wants to hang tonight.

Which means tomorrow will be a write off. It’s ok a lot of stuff is popping up and it’s good to chill when I can. Not that I do. My blog will be revamped soon I am excited for that! Talked to Bryan about it today on the phone.

Ok princess dirtbag time now bye bye!

Graduate class on blogging Raymi

Kay so this dude, a teacher dude, scholarly professor type (educators seem to be a big Raymi Groupie subset of people) taught a portion of his course on me some time ago (yes for real). I don’t know anything about school (was that the right terminology, course?) because I am the golden child who has floated in a cloud bubble blogging from outerspace free of having to learn anything more, we cannot possibly teach her anything more! Is what they said, set her free in to the world and we will study her instead!

And that, Little Raymis, is what they did.

__________________________

Hullo Raymi,

Sorry to take so long answering your question; got a little caught up on a project. So, here are the answers to your questions:

>>Raymi: how many students failed raymitheminx 101?

Well, all and none. The class introduced upper class and graduate journalism students to blogging as a medium; they had to create their own blogs to pass, which they all did. By a coincidence, all the students were female. All of them envied you your voice; you have an unmistakable style as a writer, a photographer, and — unusually and interestingly — as a photographic subject. In fact, the only person I can think of who was consistently successful as a model and a photographer was Tina Modotti, who modeled for Edward Weston. So they all passed the class, but I was disappointed that they all chose to do more basic “news” style blogs — they stayed where they felt safe.

>>Raymi: Oooh email the question if u can remember ill get my readers to weigh in, myself included

I do remember the question, partly because I keep asking it as I read you. And partly because there is no “correct answer;” so I change my mind about it all the time:

Is RaymiTheMinx a blog by Raymi, or is Raymi performance art by Lauren White?

They all blogged answers. Suffice to say there was no consensus. I’ve always wanted to hear your answer.

Ok, here goes.

Firstly, I was flattered that they envied my voice, which, truth be told, is addictive cos you keep listening and then I say something deep profound and insane and it takes you away. Maybe if I talked about nicer things with this incredible voice people would be cooler with me?

No Raymi is definitely not performance art, I am a shitty artist. I’m not bad I just half-ass my talent and that’s probably why I didn’t bother with University. I am super lazy and I figured out that being hot would help me get places and do the work for me so I put effort in to that. Call me vain or narcissistic but look at everyone who is famous, are any of them ugly? If they are then they got there someway by perhaps nepotism or they’re just super talented. You don’t need to be all of everything 100% you can have portions of various qualities and smush it all together as one. I pay attention to detail, I am thoughtful, considerate and articulate. I have been on the internet since I was a teenager, ahead of the curve or just right alongside there with the over achievers, and adults.

I am a cunning little minx and everything I have learned I taught myself, that real life experience shit. I chose the other door so, I have spent the majority of my formative life on the internet, more than the average person has. I am conversational on it as a result.

I am fiesty in real life like I am here Raymi and Lauren there is no difference between the two, one just gets a little shier in the limelight. I never stop, this blog does not stop when I am not blogging. I am a thinker and always scheming. I see opportunities in every corner, in every hate email, dance floor moment, person in the street. I take chances and I am fearless when people think I am being crazy and yelling at someone in a bar I have actually quickly on the mark sized up my opponent and methodically calculated that if I pounce there is an overwhelming chance in my favour that I come out unscathed. That is the type of person that I am and it shows on my blog.

My bark has bite and I likely have a teensier bit more testosterone than the average bird so I can make cheeky game moves and because I am an obsessive entrepreneur here I am constantly chugging out material/life/content at a frenetic pace that if that crazy thing I did back there was too retarded, we have already carried on to the next thing.

I am not here to be anybody’s hero other than my own. A lot of people read my blog because I am good at making them stay and come back for more, whatever those polarizing reasons may be, so then I get to say all kinds of verbose ego-stroking things and get shit-faced with my friends and brag about it because I know they’re here watching waiting and loving it. I am not hurting anyone I don’t feel and the more the merrier, I enjoy all walks of life, freaks, geeks, who cares just be nice. I only ever blow up when attacked and/or provoked, which is constantly.

In summation, the only time this is performance art is when I go out and conquer a fear even though I am shy and dying inside I force myself so that I can blog it because I would hate the type of person I’d be if I was afraid all the time and you don’t get anything done that way. There is a reason people get rewarded for public speaking, or paid to do it, all kinds of bloggy things out there. Diva Raymi is real too, that’s who I am right now. I’m a showgirl, an originator and entertainer, nice to meet you.

I created this monster and now I must slay it!

You were a bitch, the end.

Remember this comment from this (NO BIG DEAL) post, well she just emailed! When it rains garbage in the form of “two cents” it pours. I wrote to her email the following ten days ago:

Dear hypocrite

for someone working in some shape or form with a real hipster poser website type thing, your comment on my blog was pretty ridiculous. grow some balls.

http://raymitheminx.com/2011/12/10/what-a-creative-designer-ad-type-guy-experiences-daily/comment-page-1/#comment-97208

my website is ranked 11k in north america, you have no regional data. I am right, you are wrong.

thanks for you shitty commentary

xo rlw

And now, 10 days later, she feels like responding:

Wow! I’ve read the comments on your post since I commented and people are saying this is your sense of humour, but I don’t get it!

You just seem mean to me!

What did I do to you? I was only (so I thought) trying to defend a graphic designer. Was my comment really that ridiculous. Sheesh!

I guess when you’re ranked so highly (whatever 11k means…) you don’t need to be nice to people who read your content and try to offer feedback.

Sorry if my comment offended you, I was only trying to stick up for an artist. (Again, I didn’t know he was your friend).

MY REPLY:

You made a dig and i reacted accordingly. all’s fair in blog and war, and you made a swipe, on my platform.

sidenote, hes my colleague, all men i work with in some capacity have a raymi crush and i treat them like dirt to keep them at a distance in order to protect myself. sometimes public punishment is required in good fun and is part of raymi the minx. its a dog eat dog world and competitive industry, a chip is required on one’s shoulder and trust me i get it all back in spades (the “mean”) so when shit is flung (which you did) at me i definitely bite back. I work very hard but unfortunately in my field that apparently warrants daily abuse which I refuse to swallow. You were a bitch, the end. You fell in to the minx trap cos you’re a noob hi welcome to the internet and you should learn about internet rank before trying to rip me an asshole or school me and then act innocent.

Oh and by the way, I’m in the 10k rank spot now baby and have been for a week.

Thxkaybye!

HATERADE EMAIL PERSON NUMBER 2

and then this white trashole fought with me while I was tired and recovering on the couch all night long, I found her (or his?) email buried in my inbox, never fear little buddy Aunt Raymi is here to give you the attention you so desperately need!

Hmmm. So you’ve been blogging for over 10 yrs yet this chick linked below has been doing it for only around 4 and has accomplished more than you…. (Considering she is looking for ‘fame’ like you are)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ijustine

You must be doing something wrong.

Dear PERSON WHO IS SO TOTALLY OBSESSED WITH iJUSTINE. (who ripped her name off of iCarly so you are both losers and iJustine is an imitator which, I have many of).

there are billions of internet superstars

i have never heard of her before you so shes not so famous then right?

OH OW I feel like shit now hahaaa loser.

Ok I just read over her wikipedia.

she’s of youtube vlog generation aka internet “tv” which is a different genre entirely. again, nice try. if you are a raymi hater why wouldnt you attack me about something that actually hurts, cos this, doesn’t. and you’re wrong, im on tv you just dont know it yet. burn.


Well I’m no hater and why would i try to hurt someone I don’t even know? I expect an apology. Really there is no difference between you and her since you both post on Youtube and she has a blog as well so I was just asking a question considering the reasons ‘WHY’.. Which are reasons you BOTH SHARE.

In fact I (and many others I see) think iJustine went way over the top for crying like a baby over the death of Steve Jobs. (She rightly got alot of flack over it for also using her post to make money.) Her act was soooo fake that day.

Here’s your laugh for today:

*You’re too old to be saying ‘burn!’ to anyone dear.

“fake that day” You wrote to me just to talk deal with your obsessive gushing over this ijustine chick. FREAK I have nothing to do with her. Go talk to your nerd gfs at a slumber party while you pick at your face zits.

and too old? baha I bet I look better than whatever fucking age u are and again she has gone video viral she’s formulaic and trite

Repeat: viral video and american is a whole different ball game now fuck off and leave me alone

I don’t care about steve jobs, I’m not a vlogger for ads, or a dumbass actress stooge who was probably coached through all of this we are totally different so your initial argument is bunk and I have been blogging for eleven years get it right hater, commenter, spectator. Make your own shit or be nice or silent, your garbage is an unwanted joke. Bubbye.

When I said ‘Too old’ I meant most people would expect a teenager to use the word ‘burn!’ as you did.

Get it? You mistakenly taking it as a swipe at your looks shows your lack of maturity. Especially AFTER I told you I’m not a hater and sent you a link to laugh at iJustine.

This Is my last message. Have a good day.

I don’t respond well to swipes which is what it was but anyway its just how I spoke in the moment and I get a lot of hatey shitty so there was no other way to not take that as a dig I didn’t know what u meant fuck christ

MERRY CHRISTMAS THANKS FOR WASTING MY TIME THOUGH ALL OF YOUR EMAILS ARE IMPORTANT TO US AT RTM HQ LITTLE RAYMI TROLLS.

Now, do yourselves a favour and stop worrying about people on the internet whom you have no control over.

Omg what will We eat next!??! Shower time excellent!

I bet your fun is pretend

Ooh la la what are they staring at?

Total doll!

Smooth move! Nice throw, expertly timed. Guh.

What is going on?

I look like a grasshopper. Do you think I take myself seriously? Frig off losers.

L-i-v-i-n’.

Pastel does the cawktease, nudes and sparkles and oh my.

I have a pre-show video of this. I have SO MUCH more material it is making my marbles clink around like the little rascals.

Bunny you were phenomenal!

So cute and classy and saucy. Yum slizzurp.

This lucky woman got a lapdance.

Like cat and mouse.

Shit damn!

Red Zeppelin turned it out with the costumes holy crap LOVED IT. Can’t wait to go through Tom’s pics after this next blast round of shots.

That’s one of my Raymism things that I have to stop doing hahaha.

Gorgeous! Pastel has danced for/with LADY GAGA! I am bowing.

That’s Tom there. He dressed as an internet troll at our halloween show. Tom is a groupie of our ever changing/rotating troupe name. Nice boots and ribcage Red Zeppelin!

Why does this make me think of Sesame Street in the 80’s, 70’s? I love that jumpsuit lets break out in to a street dance while we sing about keeping it real alphabet style.

Good as new again haha shrug.

LOOK at those suckers raise up like that holla! and they’re big bajungas. These are things I think guys are thinking at the time in the crowd right? I need a guy review one day ahaha I’ll try to find someone from pervert’s row. Bunny said there’s a slew of dudes in the burlesque circuit who go to all these things. There’s a whole scene.

HOT.

Ok I admit I look slightly retarded here but you know, it’s not the end of the world and if I am grinning at you like this it’s a good thing cos you are about to get a welsh cuddle from a Minx followed by something nonsensically accidentally intelligent lisped into your ear. I thought I slurred when I drank, newp I lispth. HAhaha.

Pastel is going to take us through her workout regime gauntlet. I am ready kid.

Destruction concerned and that’s a Little Raymi in shot too obvi you can tell by the hair Alyssa what is your blog/twitter again? LOVE AND MISS YOU!

If I’m a minx then Pastel is def a cheetah. Apparently her body has yo-yo’d more than mine has. People eat that up man, can’t wait to see some pics.

Disney princess face. Any guess what her heritage is?

If I ran a Hello Kitty Strip Club…

Kat and I look all business here. That’s cos we is sucka. Our Vday show is going to be bananers and we are switching venues to somewhere bigger, with raised stage. Valentinettes? Hmm will have to think of a good one, cupid’s something. Bleh. DUMB DUMB. Thanks for the lingerie girly!

A garter winner. Kat and her buddy.

Haha.

There’s glitter on my tit.

We are in a fake tits wanting competition now too. If Pastel can’t be happy with her body then we are all fucking fucked.

Dripping hot.

Major influx of dudes bemoaning (the ones who did) missing Sunday night once they saw the coverage. I told you so bros.

I could care less what you think of it. Come back to me when you have a live solo performance of your own and the guts to do it. This video features a funny moment with my cupcake Christmas ornament and this version of MCB is slightly diff than the one I know, slightly slower tempo. I made do.

Remember haters, I am adorable and you are horrible.

Winners are proactive.

Losers are left in the dust writing hate comments on blogs of winners.

See how I covered up the word SEX? I am classy.

I love how the next dopey comment will be WELL I AM GLAD I KNOW WHAT IT LOOKED LIKE IN VIDEO SO I KNOW I DIDN’T MISS ANYTHING thank you loser for the opinion no one asked for if you’re so glad why did you come here, wait for it, then watch it, and then comment about it? Hahaha.

Hi John!

Christmas vortexxx.

I’m sorry but I cannot get over this one of my ass.

Red Zeppelin’s first solo was Peggy Lee’s the very thought of you.

Ok I’ma plaster this with Elfette pics now.

Girls from the North Country

Bum Bum Lauren! I don’t think I have one cool family nickname, does anybody?

2 secs for me to jump in the shot. We’re pretty bush league.

I don’t see anything old here, sorry, nothing but hot taught in their prime fresh Chrismas chicks. I bet I am in better shape than whoever left that comment.

Heehehh you can see that I am not wearing pasties here.

Clem burst in to the back and said RAYMES GET ME MORE SPRINKLES. I created a monster, I threw sparkles on everyone, constantly, dumping them down sweaters, coats, scarves, shirts, while embracing, leaving behind piles of the shit it was hilarious and pissed off a lot of people. I had words with the cleaner at the end of the night, tipped him a twenty whilst basically saying now talk to the hand I’ve had enough tonight brah. I paid the girls out and took no cut, didn’t charge for their costumes either, a very Minxy Christmas to you Elfettes thanks for everythang! I am wearing Allison’s braclet in this picture she has a new (doing very well) jewelry business now awesome. Gave away a thong too and fishnets, thank you Ohhh Canada!

Behind the scenes panic room.

One day, I am fat, the next (today apparently) I am too old, naw son, I ain’t too old for shit, maybe you are. The sooner you are to slowing down the closer you are to dying. Hating on someone who is living their dream will not bring you any closer to yours.

Have you ever wanted to tap dance to punk rock with one of those old timey film darlings?

Pastel’s new fan. He came with 5 look-alikes all towering over me and asks Teacher how he puts up with or handles my burlesque. Lots of drinking.

Pastel raisin’ hell.

Quite the tickle trunk back there, Paddy had all her shit in my area and was never around for me to say hey move your crap so I kept having to do that which wasn’t fun. Your stuff HAS to be organized, number for number, otherwise it’s a frenzy of search and destroy until find.

Did that bow ever come off? I was in a bit of a vortex at points.

Bechnique, you should have put a costume on.

Sprinkle fairy! Clem referring to sparkles as sprinkles made me have a giggle fit for five minutes. I don’t know why but I just prefer retarded people in life. I am so glad he came in santa suit, gives you permish to be a jerk all night long and get away with it.

This guy’s friends threw his scarf on the ground and like a good little Elfette I picked it up and twirled it around for him and he was very happy, it washed away his going to scream at friends moment. We keep it Jersey Shore and dance where and whenever the hell we please. Oh my god I miss Jersey Shore in Italy I can’t believe I am saying that.

No elves left behind.

Good score off Red Zeppelin that red thing thanks girl! Very retro Miss Claus.

That’s Red unwrapping herself. I was very impressed by her performances. Yes her name has changed, she’s been getting weirdos ever since this burlesque thing started uh oh, how exciting!

Would you tell this girl she’s too old to dance? She’s a pro and smokin’ hot, we are the same age. A gaggle of my boys were like, Raymi, WHAT IS HER NAME!? It was a really good time Sunday night. Leaving me loser comments about your opinions and feeling sorry for me is hysterical for one and all in the real world who were there. You say so much about yourself when you hate on girls for taking their clothes off for a show in real life and then share it with you on their blog that has been number one since the year 2000 like I am supposed to feel like an idiot now? Oh no I have been exposed thanks to your detective skills and your opinion has REALLY MADE ME THINK ABOUT MY LIFE. I don’t care if you think I can’t dance. This isn’t the so I think I can dance show, it’s the I know I look smokin’ in teeny g-strings and love Christmas music lets make a cabaret and great material out of it show. Everything I do turns to gold and after everything I do someone feels like a grinch at the reflection of the art I made then blogged and like clockwork, chimes in. I’m sorry you couldn’t get 3 people to show up at your turn at the pole.

Rhonda and her blasted husband George we had them over at the end of this with Brosz7 and it was fun all that etc but should have been in bed. They’re all the way in from Ireland so that requires a good gong show. I’ve been pretty good this holiday season so far I think and deserved a little letting loose. There aren’t many breaks in RaymiLand.

Merry Christmas and go f*ck yourself would be this xmas card caption.

And this one too haha. Elfettes have sparkly claws, insert claus pun.

And now we get loose. Tonight I gotta cut loose, Foot loose.

Kick off your Sunday shoes. Please, Louise, pull me off a my knees.

Jack, get back, c’mon before we crack. Lose your blues everybody cut footloose!

And now we are talking shop about the incident while Amy is in my Raymi la la land kevin bacon vortex which was actually probably the spice girls or something hahaa. Meanwhile, Paul on the left there is totally stoked Kim Jong Il died and owns my painting of him (from 2006!) and he was with us the night we met the kid who threw the thing through the window, I think Clem was too it was a very special thing he did for us lol.

The canes were excellent.

Should I show up to Teacher’s family’s Christmas dinner like this? So, we’re all reading my blog now I guess, hi all meet the REAL ME. Your hot tub better be on lol. I will probably show up dressed like a Ski Bunny.

People just collapse right in to me I am so loveable I don’t know what you are all crying for, I’m more enjoyable than your own best friends!

Amy is awesome. We met and fell in love at the LCBO in LibVille, she was sampling and we were drunk, it was a Saturday bender, summer I think, I was dressed like Malibu Hello Kitty and who the fuck even knows what we talked about.

End of the night, me and Sarah are always yammering about girl stuff basically like, I like you, NO it is I who LIKES YOU! She posted this photo of us on FB and someone said… “holy crap i think my friend’s band wrote a song about her”.

Raymous the famous!

Um where were you two dopes during dance recruitment?

The after dance costume party is when I sneak out stuff from my tickle trunk and put it on drunk hot girls and then get pictures for my blog.

Hey we’re the Chippettes and again I’d like to point out how hot and young looking I am just in case the trolls missed it.

I found something.

Something way better than sprinkles.

How do these get here? Staff after hours ploughing? Hey babe can I keep those I want to hang them up here to reminisce and so I can remember that I had sex here last night.

Excuse me I have to interrupt your ever fascinating irish drunken tale in order to dangle this skanky thong on your face you don’t mind do you?

She didn’t know and it was too late to stop her, luckily crotch didn’t touch lips. Well not in this photo anyway.

TBH it looked brand new.

#bovineproblems

Hot mess Christmas choo choo train.

Kept busting in on their dance circle in loud coloured outfits and loud coloured mouthing off, it was a gas, then we split two cabs back to the gingerbread house and continued getting polluted and that’s why I slept all day yesterday. I don’t power drink like I used to. That’s basically how Winehouse bit the dust eh. I say you should always drink a little less the older you get.

Red had a date in attendance this night who turns out knew me from something to do with the Globe and Mail days I forget but I am sure this date’s activity solidified things for that dude and Red Zeppelin haha. “So like my burlesque troupe is having a show tonight (and they are totally fucking insane sexy shit shows) do you wanna come?”

Ok I am adding the rest of colleague’s and Tom’s and Little Raymi (erica’s) now. These were all Mystery camera for the most part, did you have a nice lunch?

Brb I have to damage control shit with Mrs. Claus. It was a May Pang kinda thing the Elfettes, you know, but now she’s a bit cranky. Google John Lennon/lost weekend if you don’t know what I am talking about.

The Elfettes take Queen Street

At :57 seconds you will hear a great big smash in this grinch vid clip, then, more glass shattering.

Someone yells out Home Alone when this starts hahaha. Oh and I fucked up the end. Oh well. Ho ho ho!

About 40 seconds in (right as I sling shot my garter in to the crowd, great artistic timing that!) you hear the window smash/shatter/pop and then the show goes on.

Pastel so hot! What a little package! Definitely opening you before Christmas.

Too bad this happened during my grinch solo. I’ll tell you about it tomorrow. An ultra Raymi fan did it hahaha ugh. I am prolonging looking at my camera and all video footage til tomorrow, today I needed a much earned siesta. I woke up at 5.

Oh dear. That’s Raymi world for ya. It’s going to be awkward, that next fb chat, so apparently you were calling the bovine all day long about me and remember how you threw the velvet rope stand into the glass window? After you barfed all over yourself and they bounced you so then you threw the thing. I feel bad for the dude but come on. Well, we did meet him at the bovine months ago (he’s a regular) and just allowed him in to the gaggle of us as a kind of novelty but kept a distance and then well, now this. The cops took him away. And there is your fifteen minutes of fame brah.

With fame comes massive irresponsibility. That’s for sure. What I mean is, do I ignore my “fans” and are they fans anyway? How am I supposed to know the dude is a fruit loop? I don’t have time for that shit. And thus, the circle of fame irresponsibility what I just invented. Another one is older dudes who have fallen off the wagon, become clean and then want to be my salvation via constant emails I don’t have time for laden with innuendos and I never asked to be saved, nor did I say I wanted to stop or needed help even. These are the ones who become my trolls, or, many fit the archetype I have experienced over the years. I think I am doing pretty good actually, my arms are toned, I am standing in this iconic doorway with my brand name stamped on my arm headlining a show of my own creation, seen realized before me in a room with all my friends. Quite awesome it was and I am, in fact.

Lol.

Ohh Bunny.

Many more to come tomowoah thanks guys! Everyone who came you rule, sorry for the Raymover today (hey that’s life). xoxo

And now I watch some of the videos while we wait for indian delivery and watch the Survivor finale.

I better not rip one of my feather earrings out of my ear.

Adding AA over knee stockings and AA green bikini bottoms I am going to wear over this g-string and peel off, eeeh!!

HAhaha my earrings. Yes I kept them.

LOL.

I wanted to throw a banana in to the crowd but I think that would be like, enough.

These gloves ahhh. There will be headbands to match. So excited. How many costume changes? I’ll post the set list.

Kat did you find that extra garter?

I broke one during a performance yesterday oops. 7 chances left! I could sew it back together I guess. Have you ever been kissed by an Elfette before? They’re better than angel kisses. And hey man, I kissed that ginger troll hobo lush horseshoe tavern barfly on the WET BEARD EWWW when I was blasted with my ex once so I don’t think that level of disgusting could be topped tonight so if you catch a garter the Elfette charter states that blabbity blah do I have to keep writing this dear penthouse drivel ? hheheh.

Hair done did. Hope the BD team come by tonight after/during their xmas party.

I am chevy chase in national lampoon’s christmas vacay when he falls through the attic ceiling agaha.

I am going to wear Allison’s jewelry tonight, I guess she makes jewelry now. She’s always up to something.

I’m going to give a pair of these teeny weeny gitches away!!! Fresh don’t worry. Thanks OHHH CANADA.

I love that tutu, it brightens up the room so much I can’t stop staring at it. It’s a soft day glo, trips your eyeballs out, going to look amazing on stage with my feather grinchy pointer/enforcer.

Requisite I am fat comment, that is an xs nightie, tightest sausage making thing ever and the bottoms cut off at my love handles.

Bum bum Lauren is one of my family nicknames. Here is because why.

Dude, it’s happening.

This cat is known to drink from my coffee, or, anything. Stupid cat. I love My Friend.

Sigh. I wish but when the hell else can I seriously wear green elf stripper sparkle shoes and be taken seriously. Nowhere.

Stop forehead furrowing!

Eep. I am going to be doing some serious #girlscaping once Teach gets back with a triple-A battery for my muff trimmer.

Wouldn’t miss it for the world, would ya? I should def dance in these grotesque things tonight hahah I am.

Back to practising my luau.
