Never let it be said that I failed to give myself the linkie luv.
Moar postes cummin as soon as A) the computer stops crashing, B) I get the Ayyy post done, and C) WordPress stops stripping out my P tags, dammit.
Do I have to take this to Valleywag again, people?

wow girl,you’re a freak. I luv it.
Feb 16, 2008 @ 02:52:52
you started crying (louder) about your pueter issues right about the time you started playing w/ that IRC. thought I might mention that.
Feb 16, 2008 @ 03:18:13
True, but I stripped it off the computer. I’m just lazy and need to set up this server, but I’m afraid if I start pulling cables out of this braindead Commodore 64 I’ll never get back online again.
However sad I may be, I just applied for Mark’s job. See? Ruthless, tasteless, childish…could I be any more perfect for Hollywood?

That sounds more like a future in politics. :)

Are you referring to the opening they have for a Canadian? I thought of you when I read that.
Feb 16, 2008 @ 03:43:03
Opening for a Canadian? I didn’t see that one. Seth’s the Homojewnadian there. As far as I know, Mark is a Yank through and through.
Feb 16, 2008 @ 04:25:29
yes, they had had an opening not long ago where they were looking for a canadian; i’ve no idea if it was filled or not – maybe ask about it. is mark leaving?
Feb 16, 2008 @ 04:30:01
Mark has left; his last day was today. How did I miss a Gawker media opening for a Canadian? I read three of their blogs every damn day.
Feb 16, 2008 @ 05:21:58
I’m sorry, we’re talking about two different companies with job openings I’m sure. I was referring to WP. WP Mark isn’t leaving I’m sure?
Feb 16, 2008 @ 06:30:16
Ah, I’m talking about Defamer. Having publicly embarrassed WP.com on Valleywag, I doubt I’m really in the pool of candidates they’d consider at WordPress. As far as I know, WP Mark isn’t going anywhere, and if he did I don’t think I’d be as unicorny as I am here.
Feb 16, 2008 @ 07:19:11
that would be kewl as if you got hooked up w/ Defamer.
did you see what is top post right now w/ WP? Check your dashboard.
Feb 16, 2008 @ 07:20:10
not top post – to BLOG – friggin’ top blog @ WP today.
Feb 16, 2008 @ 07:45:26
I never check that since I got banned from the list, quite frankly.
You mean this one?

Oh, this one:
http://stuffwhitepeoplelike.wordpress.com/
Yeah, I saw it yesterday. It’s funny, but I can’t link to it if it keeps moving around and telling me it’s not going to be there in two or three days. Big news in the blogosphere, blog of the week.
Feb 16, 2008 @ 08:06:09
Jon proposed to his girl via the LOL Cats blog on Valentines Day – did you see what’s going on over there? That’s great!
Feb 16, 2008 @ 08:11:12
I only saw the baboon ass Valentine. Did they get engaged in the comments over there?
I’m feeling far too emo and cranky to post anything heartwarming. I nearly posted NOVEMBER RAIN FOR FUCK’S SAKE. The combination of not getting paid on payday and losing the best blogger in the entire world is just too much for one day. I don’t even have any booze to drown my sorrows in!
Feb 16, 2008 @ 10:21:44
who the heck isn’t paying you? is it that shoe place?
Feb 16, 2008 @ 10:51:23
I’m giving them till tomorrow before I email. They’ve never been late before.
But I also had two paying clients for my freelancing bail at the last minute this week. It’s a very lean week, and this does not take me to my happy place. When I DO get paid, I’m going off this bloody diet and getting myself a nice big vat of premium gin and I’m crawling inside and not coming out for days.
Which reminds me, I should go back and finish that quiz of yours. I think I passed out at #14.
Feb 16, 2008 @ 10:57:45
You came back and finished it. Drunk as he// :)
I have a pic of a shaved penguin for you I found. Not quite for the forum, pretty sure it’s ok for you here. I guess I’ll find out real, real good soon enough ;)

cheer u up maybe :)
Feb 16, 2008 @ 11:06:34
Thank you. It does, actually.
I can’t believe that hysterical little twat deleted the blog. And just watch, this is going to be my fault. At least he got his ass handed to him over the tags and won’t be doing that again.
Feb 16, 2008 @ 11:42:34
na, he’s just a kid. don’t worry about it.
that lol cats blog – they got engaged in the posts actually, not the comments. they used their own cat.
Feb 16, 2008 @ 12:16:26
I’ll have to check that out. I tend to scan it rather than pay attention to the text.
The text that’s not in 48 point comic sans, that is!
Feb 17, 2008 @ 17:02:52
EE tell me you really did apply for the Defamer job. If you did I am keeping everything crossed for you!
Are your ears burning?

Feb 18, 2008 @ 00:15:33
Yes, I really applied for the Defamer job, although I think I forgot to point them to the mummified fairy post, which has over 700 comments. Comment-inciting skills are good. If I get it I shall be thrilled to the very core of my being, if for no other reason than the vast cross-linkage potential!
(I kid, I kid!)

You have my sword/vote/whatever.

And I appreciate it. Say hi to everyone and apologize for me. This computer of mine can’t handle much anymore, so it takes me 14 hours to get my work done…doesn’t leave as much time for saying hi and reading everybody’s news as I’d like, to say the least. And that’s when it’s not crashing.
I’ve got a great plan, though. Steve Jobs is going to fall in love with me and give me a really good computer. And sex.
I wonder what those are like?
Feb 18, 2008 @ 13:48:12
U Get paid yet?
Feb 18, 2008 @ 16:45:06
I have no idea about the good computer or sex (good or otherwise). I am in training to be a lesbian but I’m still hesitating about the Buster Brown haircut.
We all miss you back in the olden days. In fact, we were only just reminiscing about you and your wild days. Lot’s of gossip – I’ll email.

Yes, paid. But it’s Paypal and the money hasn’t hit the bank yet. Probably another day.
In training to be a lesbian? Oh, dear god. Don’t go there; I don’t even know how MEN get along with women. Maybe become a cat lady instead, or get one of those RealBaby dolls or something?
You’d look good with a pixie cut, though, which is perfectly acceptable for lipstick lesbians.
