    Petition To TD Blogger

    We the undersigned would like to officially protest Top Design Blogger, Ms. Place, and TheHoInMo for favoriting certain designers before the final show has begun. Only Damselfly has made any attempt to play fair on this blog, mentioning every one one of us and distilling our essences.

    TheHoInMo singled out Lisa, turning her into a heroine and giving her her very own post. And Ms. Place, the most egregious abuser of the TD Blogger team, has mentioned Michael twice, compared Erik favorably to Jai, and also prominently mentioned Heather, Goil, and John in one of her more critically acclaimed writings.

    Singling out certain designers before the show airs is unfair and detrimental to those of us who are overlooked. We only have one shot at making it big time and perhaps earning the opportunity to revamp Donald Trump's outrageous pseudo "traileur trashe" gold lame interior in Trump Tower.

    One of us will be asked to pack up our pouffy fringed pillows and go after the first show. The pre-show publicity is our one shot at fifteen minutes of fame and you, Ms. Place, are especially depriving us of our glory.

    We petition TD Blogger to give us equal and fair treatment! There are still 10 days to go before the show begins. When you mention us in future blogs, we would prefer that you use the following tag lines:


    Elizabeth: The Froote is goote.

    Carisa: One Who Makes No Mistakes, Never makes anything.








    Ryan: Empty Thoughts, Lame Excuses, and Decorative Lies


    Felicia: California Girl With a Design Attitude








    Matt: On the Path to Interior Design Since Five

    Andrea: We are both a design office and an idea/product lab












    Signed, the TD Designers

    Disclaimer: This post was a dream. Ms. Place woke up and jotted down the thoughts in each designer's head. The designers, though thankful for the publicity, would like you to know: We did not write this petition! Ahem.

    What a pathetic blend of shameless self-promotion and sour grapes.

    Thanks for your comment, C Monkey. You would be right, I suppose, if the designers had sent the petition.

    Alas, the entire piece came from my head. In an attempt to be funny (ahem) I might have given the wrong impression.

    I was merely trying to introduce the rest of the designers in a creative way.
