This is the one with a missed birthday!
Posted August 31st, 2010 by Mike Lawson
OMG…I always forget my freaking blog’s birthday. One August 15th WhatSomeWouldCallLies turned three!
My first post was This is the one that explains it all. I started this website just a few months before I decided to pack up and move to Arizona. So this page became a way to connect with friends that lived far away, and it helped me meet new friends in the desert.
Two years ago I started posting weekly affirmations like this one. And then I would post quotations like this. And I would post weekly pictures of kids using their middle fingers like this one. But it was a lot of work, and nobody ever said that they enjoyed them…so I stopped.
A lot happens in a year…one year ago I was busy making the Mike Lawson font, and changing my Twitter Avatar. And just over a year ago I started working at the Club that I work at now.
In 2008 I wrote a birthday post that included some of my favorite posts. Check that birthday post out here.

Congrats, though belated.
I’d like to point out that not only did some people enjoy your limmericks and challenges, but I once took one of your challenges (June 01, 2008) and tried to assume good intent for a week, and blog about it. I posted the links to the results in a comment, as I remembered and have checked.
So, I know it’s a lot of work to think of ideas fo weekly sections, but the sentence “But it was a lot of work, and nobody ever said that they enjoyed them…so I stopped” brought it back to me!
