Jordan Reid would like to thank all you loyal tumblr followers by begging for more followers: Oh, jeez… I can’t believe I forgot to mention… I have a little surprise gift for one of my beloved Tumblrers. I miss you. I am sorry I forsook you for Wordpress, but I thank you for staying with me. Please know that I check in on you all the time, and am so grateful for your continued support. The little surprise gift has to do with haircare, and you will like it. Maybe even love it. So how about I give it to the...

Sarah Lacy, expert on startups, thinks commenters are stupid and obviously did not even read her link bait before posting: @bryanl that's what commenters do. anyone arguing this downturn was hardest on tech is living in a sad fantasy. no evidence at all. about 21 hours ago via web in reply to bryanl furthermore, it's insulting to industries that *were* hit. america has more poor than ever before but it's also still richest country. #duh about 21 hours ago via web comments on my recession post = iq test to see if you can read a whole article. indefensible this recession worse than...

Was informed via email that antibiotic ointments (like Neosporin) moisturize just as well as Vaseline, in addition to preventing infection. Good to know! Jesus. A Harvard graduate, ladies and gentlemen.

Sarah Lacy, possessor of undeniable charm and tact, has posted yet another well researched screed to the crappiest tech blog out there. Is it about moving the homeless out of her neighborhood? Slow service that only seems to happen at ethnic restaurants? Smelly people on planes? Nope! It's Sarah Lacy telling you people to stop complaining about this fictional recession! With the news this week that the recession officially ended in June 2009, there’s a ton of commentary about how it still feels like we’re in recession. But from where I sit, it never felt much like a recession at...

Marco Arment, that bald dude who has coded fail into tumblr (it's a FEATURE!) has stepped down as CTO to go focus on coding Crap that might actually work. According to Business Insider: Tumblr cofounder and CTO Marco Arment is stepping down from his full-time role within the company to focus on "independent" projects, he announced this morning. He'll continue as a consultant to Tumblr. In the grand tradition of tumblr innovation they will soon be hiring a hipster tumblr user with no actual job experience, but someone who knows every obscure R. Crumb joke and likes creating memes. They...

Jordan Reid, repeated burn victim, visited MY local Ikea the other day. I haven’t been to Ikea since I furnished my LA apartment seven (yikes) years ago, and back then I had a car, which made the whole excursion infinitely more pleasant. Not that it wasn’t pleasant this time, but… OK. It was sorta hole. That place (I went to the one in Red Hook) is BIG. And those boxes are HEAVY. But Mom came along to keep me company, so that was nice! Now I feel gross knowing she was there, and am seriously rethinking picking up those Billy...

Sarah Lacy, "writer", has now joined the likes of Poundcake, Messica, and Megatits in pimping her soon to be bestseller. Well, actually her husband "sadkids" is pimping it: Sarah's new book is available for pre-order!!! Get it now! (please!)http://amzn.to/SrLbcc6:21 PM Sep 17th via web Sarah responded with either an attempt to be funny or a sort of depressing insight into her financial failure: .@sadkids i like the slightly desperate sound of your last tweet ;) PLEASE WE NEED MONEY!6:24 PM Sep 17th via web in reply to sadkids Please try to not crash Amazon.com with your rush to preorder this insightful...

Meaghan O'Connel, awesome, received a very unkind missive from an internet stranger yesterday: @tao_lin a stranger emailed me to call me a cheese beast. amazing.9:34 AM Sep 19th via web What is WRONG with you people? Are you that lazy? That's the best you can do? Couldn't go with "Velveeta Eata"? Are you tired of calling her "Poundcake"? Is "hipster beer and Quizno's fueled beanbag" not descriptive enough? Come on. If you're going to be cruel, do it with some originality and gusto! Seriously, though, the more exposure she gets the more rude emails she'll probably receive. It's just part...

With the impending re-re-relaunch of Morte d'Mary, the lifestyle blog for rich people in Houston, Mary Rambin has been busy organizing her content, putting together her blogboard of future post ideas, analyzing topic trends, and managing her event calendar to bring us a totally new, interesting blog. Or, she's just going out and getting yet more pics of herself taken: Pulling clothes from Tootsies for my photo shoot tomorrow. It’s time for new pictures and I finally settled on a day to do it (aka the last possible second to get them done for the new MTM layout). Ok, look...

Meghan McCain, super big deal, is setting the world on fire with her book, Stupid Talking Chick. A fat lonely basement dweller says, "With all the free publicity (Letterman, Leno, Daily Show, Daily Beast) that Meghan McCain gets, it turns out that almost no one is buying her book." From the Drudge Report's "Book Race": MISS: MEGHAN MCCAIN 'DIRTY SEXY' AT 2,644 I don't believe it! She's so popular and has been pushing her book so hard, I can't believe only 2,644 copies have sold. There must be some mistake. In other breaking news, my faith in the American reading...

For the past 3 days Messica Lovepuppy Quirk, What I Wore is her full time job, has complained about how she doesn't feel like doing the crap she is supposed to be blogging about: Its raining, I'm hung over and its an hour to get to Lincoln Center. Might be playing hookie today7:13 AM Sep 12th via Twitter for BlackBerry® I keep trying to get off the couch and just keep landing back. Its an HGTV marathon kind of sunday with twitter on commercials9:41 AM Sep 12th via Twitter for BlackBerry® Invited to your show by 3 in house people and hassled...

If you're wondering why the internet suddenly lacks the sound of a whining, complaining, snobby wannabe writer, it's because Sarah Lacy is in China! Bye sf and twitter. See you when I get back from behind the great firewall.1:56 AM Sep 11th via txt It's been four days and finally the smell of entitlement is dissipating. Everyone take a deep breath because if immigration lets someone like Paul Carr stay in America, she will probably be allowed to re-enter the country.

Meaghan O'Connell, master of the myspace angle and editrix of yet another tumblr book, is implying other people are ugly. Tyler Coates, one of the many oversensitive, obsessed with moving to New York/ Brooklyn bashing contributors to her epic tome, took "oblivious to irony" to a new level when he posted the pic of a guy who posted a pic of his friends...or something... I am blocking some asshole on Tumblr who reblogged a picture of my friends and called them fat. What the ?about 10 hours ago via TweetDeck To really hit it home, THIS MAN reblogged a picture of my...

Jordan Reid, poster of recipes, lover of food, is showing her respect for your recipe by totally effing up your recipe: Sunday morning, I made a retooled version of Sharyn’s Spinach Quiche for Nadine and Kendrick. It may look pretty, but…eh. I tried to make it a touch healthier by skipping the cheese and replacing the heavy cream with light cream, and I left out the fried onions because I couldn’t find them in my supermarket, and all of these things were bad ideas. It was too spinach-y, and oddly textured, and since I used fewer ingredients, the filling didn’t...

It's been over a week, so you may have forgotten the most important event of the internet year: Jessica Schroeder's wedding to that quirk asshole. Well, wait no more: Messica has finally taken a moment from her hectic Fashion Week schedule to post pics of her wedding dress! My initial reaction? Just whelmed. Last Sunday I was the luckiest girl in the world when I married Adam.  My brother performed the quick, outdoor ceremony and everything was absolutely perfect. I’ll be posting more photos from the wedding in the coming weeks, but these are a couple Adam and I took...

Fresh on the heels of users posting laundry lists of complaints, David Karp, the 20-something playing CEO of tumblr, went out and got himself a present: Just got this! It’s registered to Rachel since the insurance was cheaper. :) Is this just how Karp deals with getting handed money or getting criticism? I'm all for him enjoying all that free money, but it just feels like he's been on a 4 month spending spree. But what do I know, maybe he is using that 10 million in venture capital to improve the tumblr user experience, hire qualified professional staff, and get...

Did you know Messica is married? And has a husband? Oh, and she is doing some Fashion Week stuff or something. Great phone chat and advice from my husband. Dang! I love him!!! about 23 hours ago via Twitter for BlackBerry® Hanging out waiting for #adam to start. Saying it makes me think of my adam @quirk about 22 hours ago via Twitter for BlackBerry® All of my blogger girl friends were so cute to keep calling me 'Mrs. Quirk' tonight :) about 12 hours ago via Twitter for BlackBerry® Can't wait for adam to get back from Indiana today!!...

Meaghan O'Connell, hot chick, is famous for two things: eating donuts, and great tumblr public interaction things. That's how we know that this guy is totally lying about Poundcake being an incompetent nincompoop: I had arranged a Tumblr Meetup in London. I decided that I would give Tumblr 3 weeks notice for their sticker package and for them to add it to the website. I arranged it and ended up emailing a week after my initial contact as I had recieved no human response and was worrying that I would not get a reply in time. Unfortunately she posted it 30...

Mary Rambin, who recently admitted nobody gave enough of a dump to sponsor her groundbreaking fashion week coverage, couldn't be happier that she is in Houston "working" and being forgotten about: On my agenda for #NYFW Working from 9-5 Exercising daily Eating healthy Going to bed at a reasonable hour Enjoying the weekend Seeing a movie maybe…. In other words, it’s just another week for me. And I couldn’t be happier. Honestly. For those of you who enjoyed my coverage, I apologize I couldn’t continue this season.  I’m sure it’s exciting being at Lincoln Center and there are PLENTY of...

Jordan Reid Gifts???? Is she soliciting gifts? Recommending them? WTF IS THIS?
