For those of you who’ve wondered if I ever sleep, of course I do, in the daytime. For those of you who’ve wondered how I’ve managed to survive everything that’s been thrown at me, perhaps this is a clue: I’m immortal.
Today was a lazy day for me, since I pre-posted all my paid blogging stuff for the weekend, so when someone on Gawker asked me about my past as an execution victim, I decided to type it out. Here, for what it’s worth, it is.
-
I didn’t remember who did it the first time, it was early days; I got executed for being too “me-too” as in, twice in a week Gawker had posted something and I posted a “yes, and there’s this” in the comments, with a link to something related.
It was most enlightening: people who’d been nicey-nicey to me before piled on. Little did they know…
Then I got fished out of the graveyard by a kind intern, came back and posted. Mohney executed me again, citing a rather arbitrary “48-hour rule”.
Then I got fished out of the graveyard again by someone who shall remain nameless.
I got executed at Gawker again for something. Don’t remember what, actually, but probably dropping too many links to my blog.
Not that I would ever do such a thing.
Then Defamer brought commenter executions on and I said it was my goal to be executed by every Gawker site, so they executed me. Then came resurrection again…
Then I posted that getting executed by every site would mean I’d have to actually GO to Kotaku and Gizmodo, so Kotaku and Gizmodo both executed me. Not sure if that counts as once or twice.
Again, I rose on the third day.
I’m relatively sure I got executed on a different Gawker media site as well, but I can’t remember what it was. Ah, well.
If you’ve got ten or fifteen hours to kill, go to that thread and play all the YouTubes: it’s a compilation of the best movie speeches of all time, and it’s over 300 comments now, most of them pretty awesome. Here’s my contribution and for those of you who may be wondering,
YES I AM PMSING!!!!!!
ah, Ken.
Run away with me and we’ll have a hundred little Irish babies who’ll kick Hollywood’s ass.
Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war.
Funny you of all people should say that.
Next time use a silver bullet.
48-hour rule, raincoaster. Banned again.
hehehe…what was that comment in the forums you made todai ;)
Well, I think I must be immortal after all the executions I’ve lived through. The only one I didn’t bother to undo was when I got banned from an Orlando Bloom fansite. I just hacked it and got in that way. She was just being vindictive, since I’d never actually gone there in the first place.
Well, maybe not that funny. But pretty predictable. Where’s Kissinger when you need him…
