Blog me silly
What is a blog? If you're asking this question then you have just failed at the Internet.
Everyone has a blog nowadays. Strangely enough though, this rise of the blog has been paralleled with a rise in people who don't know how to write muscling in on the territory of people who are really quite fantastic writers and ruining it for everyone.
Strange correlation, that. Nobody wants to read a blog about someone's life, because the only person that anyone is ever interested in? Themselves. It's true.
But you need something to do, because you're bored, and your internet connection is just sat there looking at you, miserable and unused.
Where should you go and what should you do? The best thing to do is go read some blogs.
But again, the problem rises up that most blogs are sycophantic displays of idiocy run by girls who are obsessed with every last move their boyfriend makes (I luvz yu daviez!) or boys who say nothing; just post pictures of their torsos online.
What you need is someone who can find some blogs that aren't pap; someone heroic and handsome and single - oh, hi there.
There's so many different blogs going on that it is hard to find anything worthwhile, but I'll give you five today that I think you might like. Wait... not think. Know. I know that you'll dig these in a hard manner.
They're fantastically written, and never feature anything that will bore you into a suitably painful coma. These blogs following are the best of the best of the ones I've read so far. Enjoy!
1. Michael ian Black
He's an American comedian and writer who is about as famous in America as someone like Frankie Boyle is here.
He's dark and scatological and you'll love what he writes about, as long as you are unoffended by most everything. We're talking seriously delirious thoughts here.
He's also recently set up a war with a fellow author after being beaten in the Amazon best-seller chart which resulted in a picture of said rival in a skunk-suit being circulated round the internet.
2. The Silly Addiction
An avid gamer realises one day that perhaps playing Diablo II all the time was hampering his social life somewhat; triggers off a cold-turkey experiment that results in a brilliant blog that is funny not for gamers, but for people who know gamers.
This isn't complex stuff based around the different levels of World Of Warcraft (or however that particular game is played; do they have levels?) but a more down-to-earth and approachable sort of style.
Again, a fantastic level of swearing and abuse is to be expected. 12»
