Why would people waste their time reveling in these idiotic, trivial blog "wars" ? There must be something better for them to do. It reminds me of the story Terry Jones, of Monty Python, tells about why he stopped "reading history" at Cambridge and moved on to comedy. He tells about a time he was in a Cambridge library getting angrier and angrier at something someone had written about Chaucer. He looked around him and saw other students getting similiarly worked up over similiarly esoteric arguments. He closed his book, left the library, and went to join the world. It's a big world and a short life. Why spend it on trivial things?

um... I'm really unclear why you're trying to increase traffic to these sites?  Am I missing something?

This is exactly the type of crap that gives weblogs and the writers a bad rep.

Yeah, and I use my tongue, too.

More liberal media at The Sideshow.

You forgot that Ductape Fatwa sucks too.

flowing to Mexico--it's just leftist bloggers?

Damn!

Can I just say that I like the way that Booman and Steven D. suck.

Oops that didn't sound right.

If you want things to get better, be prepared to deal with change.

I can;t believe I still suck. I don't even post anymore.

I am beginning to rethink things.

This IS your blog, Boo. You certainly have every right to decide it's tone, it's style and it's course.  

As a guest on your blog, I have had the opportunity to contribute my work and be read by many, and to meet and come to know many very exceptional people, many of whom have become friends I never wish to lose touch with. I followed some of them over to mo betta metta because of that..I didn't want to lose the ones who had left here. I never did bash this blog, or any other blog there. I think interblog battles are useless and dumb.

But more and more lately, I am feeling out of synch with the general tone here. This is not a value judgement on you or anyone. It's a simple statement of what I am personally experiencing. I am a long way from the party/drinking/music scene, and I know I am not as hip as lots of you are to todays style of free flowing snark, or how it is used.  

I do love good discussions on many topics and there are still plenty of these here, so I know I won't stop coming here. But for whatever it may or may not be worth to you, I also feel that overall, I am not such a good match with with the folks running the place.

So I will make my own ajustments to that realization, without offering you any further feedback.  

ONward!

Had to reach back quite a bit to get some of these. September 2005?

Of course, we don't want to get into why people might disagree with someone else. And we don't want to get into why some people's uncivil behavior might attract uncivil dissent.

Yeah. Our Word sucks, too. So does media girl.

But what really sucks is the implied assertion that anyone should be above criticism. Or that one's brand of "liberal" views are somehow inherently better than another's, or that they're somehow measured and validated by site traffic.

In other words, here we are, two weeks before the election, and I see this post tracking through. I'm scratching my head.

media girl

those of us who read the above sucky writers suck too! Proudly, in my case.

Armando definitely sucks.

My life's work is complete. Thanks for all the candy; I'll be on my way now...

:P

you suck.

Hey, don't forget me, my blog sucks too!

You're not another one of those evil liberal bloggers outing people, are you?

The reason so many bloggers suck is that they don't link to GOTV blog :)

Hey, don't forget: I suck, too.

Evenin',

I haven't been in a position to participate for awhile, so I hope that I'm missing some type of inside joke. I say that because when I have stopped by, I've been pretty darn touched by the outpourings of support and peaceful demeanor of the place, with good things waiting around the corner (such as the much-anticipated FOtofair....:)

With that being said, I was fairly taken aback by the nature of this thread, and wondered what would motivate you to dredge up some pretty darn old (and pretty darn negative) stuff...

Again, I might (hope to!) be missing something, but this left me awfully confused.

   good night....

I have a Public School Education, therefore, I'm a little slow, what is this diary all about???

but I don't think it is very funny.  And, yes, I know that I suck too.

y0u g0t 0wn3d!!!!!!!!!

Great post, by the way.  And you suck.

I leave it as an excercise to the reader whether I mean Joey Harrington or the Detroit Lions.

Just earlier today I was thinking about how much you suck, but I couldn't think of the right way to tell you. Needless to say, I'm relieved that you were able to figure it out on your own. This post does present an interesting problem though. What sort of relief is available for those of us who suck, but who either suck so much or suck in such uninteresting way that nobody ever takes the time to point it out? That leaves a whole lot of unfulfilled and unsatisfied narcissism just rotting out there on the vine, wouldn't you say?  Perhaps we could set up some sort of a foundation to address this pressing issue.

Finally the truth is out, and I think all of you know or can well imagine how much I SUCK!  Heh!  Sometimes it is hard to be so talented.

You guys may all suck, but I truly suck beyond suckiness.
Ask around, you know it's true.

;o)

lol Booman.  I haven't laughed that hard in a while. ;-)

I'm damned if I can even begin to imagine why you'd choose to post a front page piece like this.  Jesus. I wish you'd grow the hell up, Martin.

If I had visited this blog for the first time today, I wouldn't have gotten past this one piece before deciding this wasn't the place for me.

ONward!

Well I must be unique because I don't suck.

And when I do, my husband considers it his lucking fucking day.

If I can't rant, I don't want to be part of your revolution

I hate it when a bigass typo escapes my notice when I'm trying to be mildly funny.

Sigh.
