Brendan O’Neill argues that some blogs suck.
(Full disclosure: I’m a master of the paraphrase. We’re talkin’ koryu bujutsu-type skills, too. I eat Wu-tang sword style for breakfast. Recognize.)

Your kung fu is the best, man…
Behold my ultimate <i>Wang Chung</i> paraphrase technique! “Hi, my name is Brendan O’Neill, and when I see spelling mistakes on the internet, I get really fucking constipated.”
Hey, be careful what you say about O’Neill. Remember, he’s <i>shidan</i> in <i>kusojutsu</i>.
Whew! I got about halfway through that post by Brendan and passed out, I dunno why…
We’ve got all these people coming up with rules for blogging and proper blogging decorum. I say FUCK the rules and SCREW decorum. Anyone who reads my blog (all four of you, thank you, thankyouverymuch) knows I piss on convention and “rules,” whatever the fuck they are.
Doubting Thomas Blogging Rule #1: There ARE no rules, you WANKERS!
*Words in all caps should be italicized instead, but I am too lazy to use HTML…
Right on!
Gee, I thought my comment on O’Neill was concise, but you’ve got me beat.
By the way, what are you using for comments? I’m trying to get enetation to work but there’s one last bug I can’t figure out.
I think you should tell everyone what <i>kusojutsu</i> means, John. Aw, c’mon! <i>I</i> thought it was funny.
My take on O’Neill is that he’s simply wrapped wayyy too tight. Which is no excuse for his being dull, however. We have a saying in the graphics field regarding people who can use drawing tools to produce flawlessly rendered artwork that is, unfortunately, badly drawn and unimaginative. We call it “polishing a turd.”
Polish away, O’Neill.
