Eight Reasons Why I Hate Bloggers:
1. The name itself. Blogger is an ugly word by any standard, and I prefer not to hear it if I can help it.
2. The cute little names that Bloggers give themselves, like a bunch of geeky CB radio users from 1975. You know what I mean, names like "DreamMaster7" and "Superchick" and "TodIsGr8". Are they so afraid of being held accountable for what they write that they can't use their own names, or are they living in some kind of dual identity fantasy world?(Again, like some geek CB users from the '70's)
3. The cute little picture icons that usually accompany their cute little names, usually the faces of characters from The Simpsons, (I like The Simpsons myself, but that's beside the point)
4. Their fragile egos. The average blogger is understandably very insecure, and hostile towards any kind of a challenge. They go into uncontrollable hysterics whenever anyone disagrees with them about anything. Try criticizing a film like Avatar in a public forum, and you'll see what I mean - A legion of rabid fanboys will be crying for your blood within minutes, calling for your death and dismemberment, and the slow torture of members or your family.
5. The way they constantly snipe at at each other. When they're not ganging up on someone else, bloggers enjoy tearing into each other, and there's no such thing as an intelligent disagreement in the blogosphere. Here is a typical exchange:
Butch4: CoolDude your opinions are idiotic. I didnt think morons like you still existed.
CoolDude: whatever your obviously a lesbian
Butch4: Well your still an idiot
CoolDude: no you are
Butch4: you are
CoolDude: you are
...and so forth in that vein for a period of days. Lincoln and Douglas eat your hearts out!
6. The way they write. No punctuation, no grammar, no sentence structure, and rarely a discernible point in the endless stream of train of thought ramblings. The smart ones write like the Unibomber, and the dumb ones...It's as if they've been given an assignment to explain the meaning of life in a hundred letters or less without using any vowels. It hurts. Fashions come and go, but standards must remain!
7. Their delusions of grandeur. It's not a coincidence that so many of them sound like the Unibomber, and before the internet age, millions of these would be oracles would not have had a forum to air their views (Kind of makes you pine for those days again, doesn't it?) Then again, perhaps it's good that we have the safety valve of the internet - Otherwise all these little Napoleons might be posting bombs to their enemies instead of simply trashing them in the virtual world.
8. Bloggers who I agree with in any way. Nothing is more depressing than sharing an opinion with a total fool. Whenever one of these guys agree with me on something, I desperately seek for some way to change my mind.
Well, that's it. To tell the truth, I had planned to call this list Ten Reasons Why I Hate Bloggers, but so far I have only come up with eight, so I guess I don't hate them as much as I thought. If you are one of the 5 people actually to visit this website, and you would care to comment on this list, please feel free to post a remark...somewhere else.
