Years ago I made a post about people online and how they pretend to be something they aren’t, and I’ve been thinking about it again recently. I made that post almost exactly 5 years ago and this issue is still a bit of a thorn in my side, especially now that the blogging community has [...]
Yesterday was the five year anniversary of this blog. It started out on May 2, 2004 when I was anxiously awaiting my upcoming trip to Canada. I’d not been home in almost four years so I was long overdue. Now here I am, five years later… looking back on it like it was just yesterday!
In [...]
A while back I saw that Zhu had a post called Pay it Forward. I first thought of the movie by that name, but it turned out she was taking part in the same sort of thing only over blogs. Here is how it was described:
the exchange focuses on doing an act of kindness without [...]
Today DutchBitch has given me the I love your blog award! Pretty cool!
I’ll be honest. I’ve seen other people handing these awards out to each other and I’ve been a little jealous and unloved.
Not anymore, I’m one of the cool kids now, so to speak!
This is how it works, according to DutchBitch:
The “I Love [...]
A few people have mentioned that they are having problems with my site being slow to load. It appears there are some problems going on with my host. I thought it might be the theme, since the problems mainly started around the same time I switched themes, but after doing some testing everything is slow, [...]
The new theme (WP-VYBE) is finally up! What do you think? You know me, if you hate it say you love it anyway because I just spent the last two days working on it. I’m ok with you just amusing me.
This theme is awesome and I really must give a big shout out to Michael [...]
I was reviewed at Bloggyaward.com today. I was quite surprised when I saw it on my bloglines with my blog on there but was pleasantly surprised to see that I was a Bloggy Award Winner.
The way the site works is, they review your site but only the really good ones get the ‘bloggy award’. You [...]
Over the next few days my site may look completely retarded. Weird colors, or other themes. I’m too lazy to make a copy of this blog to test on so I’m just going to test on it live :)
So expect that things won’t look or work like normal for the next while!
I’ve got the theme-changing [...]
I need you to poke around my site a bit. Click on things in my sidebar, try to go to the next page, check my categories etc and tell me if you get any errors or if things just look generally unwell.
Please tell me:
1) What browser you are using.
2) What errors you are getting.
If you [...]
A while back I signed up for a few sites to have blog reviews done, just for shits and giggles. Today another one of the reviews came in from Frog My Blog and it was pretty good. I got 4 out of 5 bugs and the only complaint they had really was the colors of [...]
After 103 days I’ve finally been knocked off 25peeps. I’m fine with it though because I managed to do what I set out to do when I signed up… outlast all the titty pics. Number two on the Hall of Fame list is the longest lasting cleavage pic in 25peeps history so far, and it [...]
My internet is back!!!… and the fight against internet blog whores continues!
Eish.. 93 days on 25peeps so far… and while I’ve come EXTREMELY close to being peeped out, I’m still hanging in there!
This isn’t about blog traffic for me. It’s become a crusade. A fight against internet blog whores slores.
Everywhere you go, there are chicks [...]
Or, talk about my life in the Netherlands to little, according to my second blog review that just came in from Avitable at IT2M, owwie!
I’m braindead and can’t figure out how the heck to get a link to my specific review so I’ll quote it here, even though it pains me to do so.
Can you imagine if Dorothy [...]
Day 82 on 25peeps and once again I’m surrounded by slores.
What is a slore? Well, according to my friend Darryn it’s a cross between a slut and a whore. I’ve decided I like that word because it brings together the utter desperation of both the slut and the whore.
It also works perfectly to describe these [...]
Today we at BAM! got our first hate mail!
I expected this of course, since people who put music on their blogs obviously know how much people hate it and keep it there anyway, so they will have some absurd inner rationalization about how we are all nuts and they are like the underdog ‘artists’ of [...]
If the header in this post didn’t give it all away already, you must be living under a rock.
My visitor for this week is the dude from Slightlydrunk.com, I say ‘the dude’ because I have no idea what his name is, nor do I care. All I know is he’s as funny as HELL!
Basically, he’s [...]
After bitching about them and blaming things on them, I’ve decided enough was enough and it was time to stop talking and do something about it!
That is how BAM! was born.
After bitching and moaning, growling, groaning and being generally discontent over people and their stupid fucking music blaring uninvitedly out of my speakers, I have [...]
Right. So everyone is talking about this great new up’n’coming site called ExLinks. They are making their big posts telling everyone how grand it’s going to be, how fabulous it is and how you should get in on it while you have the chance.
Whatever.
I’m not going to do that because to be quite honest, I [...]
I have now been on 25peeps for 77 days. Which means that if I get ‘peeped out’ I will be at the top of the Hall of Fame!
I think that’s quite an accomplishment, considering I spend every day on there surrounded by scary looking dudes and chicks doing their “Look how sexy I am, you [...]
