It’s funny, I was going to go to the BlogNashvile conference a few weeks ago here in Nashvegas but I didn’t after realizing that I didn’t really feel like hanging out with people who have gone past the point of taking the blogosphere too frickin seriously.
So, instead I slept in and got drunk with friends.
People in the blogosphere need to learn to get over themselves. It’s getting a little sad at this point.
My father used to guest preach at small churches when the regular pastor needed a weekend off. I don’t remember him pissing off the congregation like Jeff tends to do, but then again he never went to a Canadian church.
Is it just my imagination, or have we all been in a funk since the “Dusty Girl” and “Say Anything” ads disappeared? Could this be the source of our malaise (if I may don my Jimmy Carter rhetorical sweater)?
Phoebe Cates thought experiments can only do so much, you know.
Love the rant. However, it could use more websense.
Speaking of which, I can never get to SDA because Websense is convinced it’s a “messageboard or club”. Increase your traffic, specify yourself as “news”.
Bad news, Jeff: despite a lot of lobbying from John Hawkins, hundredpercenter, and numerous Canadians, you did not make Bernard Goldberg’s book. Commisserations and condolences.
See, I figured that after a while this whole “blog” thing would become so passe by the sheer volume that the cognoscenti of the ‘spere would start bitching and issuing manifestos, etc. (cf)
So in order to stay ahead of the curve, I hereby announce that I AM NOT STARTING A BLOG!
Since commenting on blogs takes so much time and, let’s face it, is really just about vanity and self-referenciality, I hereby announce I AM RETIRING FROM COMMENTING ON BLOGS!
Unless, everyone begs me to continue and hits the tipjar.
Hey…wait a minute. I just realized I don’t have a tipjar, so hit Jeff’s instead.
When things get a little too serious in blogdom, it is helpful (to me, at least) to have a reminder that there still exists, somewhere out there, something beautiful.
Jesus.
If I ever become a “big blogger” (which is not likely, seeing as I’ve been at it for three years), remind me to never have guest bloggers.
Putting up with all that bullshit isn’t worth it.

I’ve had guest bloggers twice, and I thought they were all wonderful.
I agree that a lot of bloggers need to get over themselves. Except me, of course. I’m a fucking genius.
That’s the modesty that keeps me comin’ back for more. Just like an abused wife.
I think all those extra exclamation points are adorable, Monty. Reminds me of the love letters I used to get in summer camp.
Now if you could just figure out how to turn the “o” in your name into a heart, you’d officially be a 13-year old girl.
Jeff, this is absolute gold!
So is it spikes in the forehead for your complaint department? Or do they use ‘dillo parts?
Spam buster: length, as in length of spikes …
I feel like Christopher Walken in a Saturday Night Live skit:
“I need more blogger angst! I got a fever. And the only cure…is…blogger angst. I gotta have the angst!”
I feed on this shit. Give me more. MORE!
Turing word: perform. Jesus. It’s just too fucking obvious and easy.
And if you really want to jack with someone, the combination of an ampersand with the word “hearts” and a semicolon will get you a litlte HTML heart.

Like so.

This could be useful.

Jeff,
I will just repeat what I said to Beth. I think you and Beth are the two fucking hottest conservatives around!
THERE I said it!! See??? Even I, the holy one, can say the ‘F’ word when necessary!!!!
*excuse me now, cuz I have to go to confession. Which seems to happen alot when I come here.
Who knew Sparkle was bi?

RWS,
You just became hotter than Betsy, who is way fucking hot!

Apropos of <a href http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=578&e=1&u=/nm/20050617/ts_nm/iraq_dc>this</a>, I notice we haven’t heard from our buddies in the Ramadi bunker in while…
trying again
<a href = “http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=578&e=1&u=/nm/20050617/ts_nm/iraq_dc“>here</a>
Why do I suck at posting links?

Does that work?
Screw it, I give up. The article said we dropped a bunch of bombs on insurgents.
I knew it!

Cutting edge. Me.
Oh, and one more thing.

RWS – Damn girl – what you said! <Smooch!>
Kelly! Don’t give up commenting on blogs! Just take a break… get Jeff to guest comment for you!
Great idea, Trouble!
Jeff?
I didn’t realize you hated Canadians until Monty pointed that out in Kate’s comments.
CANUCKOPHOBE!
It had to be the Dudley Do-Right thing. I knew I was going too far on that one, yet I just couldn’t control myself…
The court should try to determine beforehand, as best it can, if the victim is subject to battered women’s syndrome. ,
