We Hear Scoble's Having A Great Time At SXSW

Robert Scoble, sex god, has been having a funderful time at Internet Cheerleading Camp. Unsubstantiated rumor fun time! Besides the usual emails alleging that "Scobie was drunk, had drool in the corner of his mouth, trying to hit on me" to piss my pants over, we hear that Old Wobbly was supposedly talking Crap about some the presenters and wondering aloud "why some attendees were there, since they weren't "in tech" but just bloggers". Obviously these rumors are NOT TRUE. Scobie has been too busy doing what he does best: EATING! Someone bought me pancakes at iHop. I love receiving...

Kevin Rose Has Girlfriend, God Laughs At Your Loneliness

Kevin Rose, revolving door for vaginas, is calling someone 'gf' again on his twitter. This may have been going on for a while and I didn't notice. What, don't give me that look. I don't check his twitter everyday, he's boring as watching a frog sweat. Anyway, the exciting tweet: Enjoying some michter's whiskey with the gf, good stuffabout 1 hour ago from Tweetie This could be any one of 4.5 million women, and could have been going on for six months or nine days.

Sarah Is The New Robert Redford, Except Not Awesome

Sarah Lacy, self-absorbed twet and not-going-to-Brazil person, has christened herself the new Bob Woodward. (Me on the phone with Bernstein, er...Paul Carr discussing Spotify last night. That's right, Paul, I'm Woodward.) Look folks. If the 9 people who know slash care who you are aren't dubbing you with the moniker you've desired your whole life, then maybe it's because you haven't given them any reason to make the connection. Assigning  yourself a nickname just makes you sound like George Costanza demanding to be called T-Bone - pathetic.

Mary Doesn't Want To See You, OK?

Mary Rambin, empress of Fantastica, is not feeling up to your holiday socializing demands. I am not feeling social these days. Strange. about 2 hours ago from TweetDeck Look, she can't be a socialite just because you people want her to be. She's just a girl - a girl who wants to sit around in a pair of 90 dollar yoga pants, and think about who she is and what her life MEANS. She can't think in a crowd of people; and at this time of year it's so important to be giving and generous. So why don't you knuckleheads...
