Larry Busby Wants To Buy A Skinny White Redhead

Meet Larry, aka "Romeo Rose", the delightful prize for some lucky thin white non-goldigger. This slice of man life is looking for his perfect woman. I am willing to pay anyone $1,500 as a finders fee for anyone that can help find me a girlfriend. (I will give you a extra $1,000 as a bonus if this turns into marriage, I offer this extra bonus as I hope it will motivate you to find me a woman of great quality) And what constitutes 'great quality', you ask as you peep over your copy of 'The Male Gaze Should Rule Your...

Queen Of The Modesty Fashion Bloggers Peaces Out

Elaine, longtime ruler of the fashion blogging niche dedicated to modesty, is renouncing her throne. I don't know how to do this. I've been fashion blogging for 4 1/2 years. How do you end it? Do you peel the band-aid off slowly or do you rip it off? I feel like I've been pulling it off slowly for the past year or so.. And it's time to rip it off. And it hurts. I'm sad that this journey has to end, but I think we all know it's time. Apparently the main reason for the shutdown is that her life...

After all, they are not at all worried about the entrance of their third child into the world: The fact is, we aren’t really scared of anything. Why not? She could die. Everyone could die. I could die. I’m not sure how, to be honest, but there’s got to be a way that I could perish during our home birth, right? Oh well.

Tatiana, the blogger known as Love, Life, Lace who flounced off the internet only to return once she got pregnant, has been applauded by many GOMIBLOGers for seemingly ending her try-hard twee domestic posing and just being a normal young mom.

Back to me, back to what feels comfortable, back to what feels right...I apologized to all my pretty dresses and blouses and before I knew it I was making an appointment with my hairstylist to get...

First Week Of “Hey Natalie Jean” Is Sponsored By Everyone

Natalie Jean, 'professional' 'writer', has managed to confuse and annoy her readers within the first week of her blog rebrand. Kicking off her new brand with two sponsored posts in a row, Natalie was forced to field some disappointment from fans. In response, she took to twitter and did some damage control: Readers gave Natalie a break, assuming it was simply awkward timing. That is until yesterday, when yet another sponsored post appeared. Today, when a fourth sponsored post rounded out the first week of the new brand - the second in a row, despite her previous statement that it...

Battle Of The Birth Bloggers Is Now Going To Court

The internet has begun hosing off their lawn chairs and stocking up on popcorn after Dr. Amy's announcement that the Battle Of The Birth Bloggers will in fact be going to court: I’m pleased to report that the judge agreed with our arguments and those of the Electronic Frontier Foundation/Digital Media Law Project of Harvard Law School and denied Gina Crosley-Corcoran’s motion to dismiss my lawsuit. The case will be going forward in Massachusetts. This evidently means that The Feminist Breeder's attempts to dismiss the case because I don't know, Massachusetts was far away or something, have been denied. In...

The Kayla And Checkers Saga Continues

Kayla, baby producing half of the infamous homeless by choice parents Kayla and Checkers, has been spending the last  year posting to her tumblr about how pointless college is and how society and the Man and bro puff puff give. I guess after social services takes one of the kids away and won't return her until you stop living in your car, you take a hint and rent a roof because she and Checkers have also apparently been living in a house and on the dole with her two babies. Everything seemed fine as of Saturday, with Kayla productively bettering...

Earlier interviews with Kelli hinted that she might be reaching her limits: "I felt like I needed witnesses...If I didn’t survive this situation, I wanted...

“Crappy Pictures” Finds Your Repeated Requests Worthy Of Public Mockery

Amber, illustrated with crankyness, returned from vacation to find her email inbox packed with 668 emails. Honestly, not too bad. I mean, it is sorta bad. But at least it isn’t over 1000 again. Amber continues whining, while attempting to assure ua she isn't whining, about all the emails from people asking her highness for things. No big deal, nothing wrong with people asking for stuff.  I usually reply, but sometimes I don’t. Fair enough, we all get email that we might ignore. Unfortunately one person continued to email several times wanting a response. Since there was a vacation auto-responder...

Nat the Fat Rat, "happiness curator", is no more. Claiming "it was really the time to put that ugly nickname to rest", Natalie has rebranded her triangle parade to Hey Natalie Jean - complete with updated "About" page written in the third person. It feels like it's been a year of blog rebranding. A few months ago the personal blog Rockstar Diaries morphed into the lifestyle brand Love Taza.

PostSecret Freaking Out Internets With Possible Murder Confession

A card posted for PostSecret's "Sunday Secrets" has internet detectives trying to discover the provenance of the secret. The card, which says "I said she dumped me, but really I dumped her (body)" seems to imply the writer is confessing to a murder, complete with aerial map. PostSecret fans are already urging the webmaster to contact the police and chiding him for posting such a thing without investigating it. Since the internets will no doubt discover the location of the map, the sender, and have a redditor out there with a shovel sometime before dawn on Monday I'm sure we will know soon...

Internet Begins Trying To Identify The Begging Bloggers

A question published in Carolyn Hax's column has the blog world snickering behind their hands while they try to guess the identity of the blogger couple mentioned by relatives seeking advice. It seems the letter writer's brother and sister-in-law are running "a well-known blog" in a niche field, and: Often, they will make comments about how our jobs are “not enhancing our soul” or “fail to contribute to our local economy with originality.” We more or less brushed this off until they sent a family-wide e-mail asking for a loan due to recent financial issues. They go on to explain that...
