Wanted: One Monkey

Pimpslapping Berg
Fun thing about being back with some fucking freedom to write like I really want. I don't have to play nice anymore either.

So it's time to set some things straight. We'll start with Mitch Berg's latest attempt to make the right-bloggy world all screwey by his "influence." Let's walk down the list of blogs he reads every day and kick the crap out it so you don't fall into some Berg-shaped rut of your own....

Lileks: So 2004.

Rambix and the Red Star: If he was all that he wouldn't have to pimp himself out at Anti-Strib, now would he?

Kool Aid Report: The Head of Alfredo Garcia brought an otherwise decent blog into suckdom. Everyone knows that.

The Shiela Variations: Will Mitch fucking propose to Shiela, get slammed down, and move the hell on EVER?!

Radio Equalizer: A blog about radio? I'm waiting for a television show about radio. Or maybe a movie.

Cathy In The Wright: Mind you, Mitch says he reads these blogs every day. There were only 10 days posts were published there in July, and 6 so far in August. Let's just say it's unlikely Mitch is going there for the "articles" and leave it at that.

Jay Reding: Jesus, Mitch. How many times do you have to rub this guy's nose in his low traffic? It's fucking cruel!

MDE: An obvious suck up to a guy who is currently taking over Mitch's radio empire.

Mitch goes on to mourn the loss of Jeff Kouba, while noting he's actually still writing just at a different URL. We all know how tough it is to set a new bookmark in your browser, so nothing to pick on there.

See, this is why I had to come back to blogging. Or... I mean Thunderjournaling (*lightning strike*). Too many of you fuckers read Berg and nod your heads like little ... head nodding... hampsters. (Shut up! Hampsters can too nod!) You need better examples to follow. Examples who fucking swear more often because they fucking love freedom, baby! Yeah!

Fucking Berg left me off his list too. The fucker!

I'm down with this new hard-assed Bogus Doug thing; but ya gotta take care of the picture on your header (wine and a contemplative stare...it's the old nancy Doug).

I suggest you don a dirty headband and some KD's.

Good luck with the rhetorical loogying; Berg snubbed me too, the bastaaad.

To join in the spirit of your new blog tone, may I say, "Thanks a lot, asshole!"

Some poor misguided pervert is now upset that he was directed to pictures of dead pigs instead of racy, NSFW photos.

Jerk.

Say hi to the Mrs. for me!

I can't help Berg's sick, sick interests Cathy. But fucking, fuck! He compared you to Family Circus. And he meant that as a compliment! Let's turn the anger in the appropriate direction here. Oh, also... feel free to post some of those NSFW pictures any time. We don't all share Berg's bizarre obsession with pork slaughtering.

And Swiftee... developing...

Don't you mean fucking developing? It's OK...it may take a couple of fucking weeks before the fucking training wheels are ready to come the fuck off.

No big fucking deal is what I'm trying to fucking say.

What's with sniffing the beer? Or are you sniffing (a)coke?

My basil grew in prolifically this year. If you like to have some fresh basil, feel free to stop by and cut off a few sprigs!

Cordially,
