Style Expert Already Pretty Thinks You Should Stop Dressing For Depression

Sally McGraw, personal stylist at Already Pretty, claims "As stylists and style experts go, I consider myself to be pretty open-minded." In the spirit of open-minded style expert-ing, Sally has posted a lovely set of rules about what you can wear and when. In the midst of such helpful hints as don't wear casual clothes to formal events, Sally took an opportunity to chastise those people suffering from depression for not making more of an effort: The argument that I see most often defending PJs as street clothing is that people who are ill or depressed or both often can’t...

That Wife Locks Up The Cheese Again

Jenna Cole, the super great mom running That Wife blog, apparently convinced That Husband to unlock her cheese. After a brief spell of dairy enjoyment, Jenna discovered her perfectly normal weight was not dropping rapidly enough. Yes, instead of practicing portion control or simply not buying cheese, That Wife has turned to the only reasonable solution: lock the cheese back up and wistfully stare at it each time she opens the fridge door. I don't want to be That Person, but this is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. I know losing weight is hard and people do some very...

KERF Eats Better Than You

Kath "Control Issues" Younger, real food eater, continues to inflict her boring, food control issue laden thoughts on the internet. Today was another of her trademark busy days, the kind typical of "full time bloggers": I went to early cycle this morning and met my friend Katherine. Fun times! We spun hard, and then finished with the core session the class ends with. And then I was dilly-dallying back downtown to my house, where I promptly got to work on massive loads of laundry. More fun times! Then it was time for a lunch of thimble sized burger and lettuce,...

That Wife Struggles To Keep Up With The Frantic Pace Of Her Life

That Wife, student, declared she would be cutting back her blogging and online time. Though you wouldn't know it from her twitter stream, she claims she has reduced her "That Wife" activities to such an extent that she finally remembered she has a family: When I said I was going to cut back on blogging, I didn’t intend to take such a long break, but something magical happened when I wrote down that I would stop posting daily. I finally made the switch to think of That Wife as a hobby, something I do for fun when I have spare time. Whereas...

CaitlinHTP Knows How To Use The Science

Caitlin, of the Healthy Tipping Point blog, recently announced she was joining the Blogger Babies 2012 army with two posts announcing, and then expanding on, her new pregnancy. Because the story of taking the test is itself fantastic blog fodder, Caitlin detailed her experience: Six days before my period, I POASed (peed on a stick), thought it was negative because a line didn’t immediately appear, and tossed it in the trash.  Then, ten minutes later, I thought, “Hmmm.  Maybe I should re-check.”  So I dug it out of the trash and – lo and behold – a very, very faint...

Gala Darling Hires Assistant, Because Why Not

Gala Darling, claims she makes $100k a year just for being Gala Darling, has a hectic schedule. After almost five years spent turning her livejournal into a blog, sucking up to Betsey Johnson, and bouncing from man to man until finally one caved and got her citizenship put a ring on it, the super blog celebrity that 500 people have heard of has finally hired some much needed help: GREETINGS from frigid New York City! It’s been very busy over here. One of my biggest pieces of news is that I hired an assistant, who is now known around these...

KERF Enjoys A Pat Down

KERF, food blogger or something, enjoys the finer things in life - beer mixed with seltzer, an occasional hushpuppy, being smug. She also enjoys travel. She recently got paid to speak at some Foodbuzz Festival in San Francisco and on the plane ride home, finally got something she really needed: a groping. Airport things went really well. You just never know how it will go! I got a pat down this time. I liked it – it was kinda like getting a mini massage. I guess a little human contact was in order since folks in the forum are claiming...

Jessica Quirk Bump Pic Sparks New Rumours

Jessica Quirk, naturally thin, has pretty much become so irrelevant that even I don't bother posting about her any longer. Other than her very sad, very transparent pageview begging via adding "Read More" links - which is frankly such a pathetic last ditch move that I can't even muster comment - she hasn't done anything very interesting lately. I thought you guys had pretty much moved on as well until emails came in tonight declaring Messica was sporting a baby bump (good lord how I hate that phrase). Here's the pics that apparently made a bunch of you do the...

Bathroom Baby Saga Allegedly Continuing At Grandma’s

Tipsters reported that "That Wife", mother of Bathroom Baby, had posted a pic of her kid's future sleeping quarters during her college break. As you know, Jenna will be dropping her inconvenient offspring off with grandma while she goes back to college for the English degree that will make her career dreams possible. Well supposedly Grandma placed the crib in the bathroom as well. I can't find the tweet and image and no one seems to have a screen shot, but I am assured it did in fact exist. It makes me wonder if Grandma's being sarcastic about putting a baby...

Gluten-Free Girl Now Joining The Widow Slam

Shauna Ahern, the "Gluten Free Girl", apparently feels she is being mistreated due to the Widow Donation ruckus. She is using her facebook page to air her hurt feelings and absolve herself of full blame. She even claims she is being singled out for abuse: Unfortunately, there has been so much nastiness with this. Some of the same people who have attacked me for years, which I wrote about recently, have seem to be spearheading this. It's bullying. When asked why the widow keeps insisting she had no knowledge despite all evidence to the contrary, Shauna (who was herself responsible...

Jessica Quirk, packing expert, is back from Barcelona. She spent today editing her photos, tossing Gala Darling's twitter salad, and continuing to beg someone to help her with her tumblr. True to her claims that she likes to look like everyone else Messica wore this traditional Spanish interpretation of a "Little House On The Prairie" dress that allowed her to mesh seamlessly with the Spanish citizenry. And of course, stay tuned to her blog where she will be posting all about her trip she will manage one more post about Barcelona with some crappy cliche photos and a paragraph about...

That Wife Is Going Back To College

Jenna Cole, infamous in the GOMIBLOG Forum as the mother of Bathroom Baby, has now announced that she will be dialing down the blogging while she returns to college: My big secret? I’m going back to BYU. Like physically going back to Provo and enrolling as a student again. I’m going to graduate! In her comments, she explains that Bathroom Baby and her husband will be up in Washington while she lives off campus and attends college for six weeks. I’ll live off-campus (housing is incredibly easy to find during the summer). TH will work for my dad up in Washington. But...what about...

Nick Denton Wants You To Leave Longer Comments

Nick Denton, overlord of Gawker Media, doesn't believe a short comment is a worthy comment. Most likely in an effort to stop people from commenting "+1" and "THIS", if you post a comment under 35 characters other commenters will not be able to respond to your words of brilliance. Instead they see this: I'm not sure what this is supposed to solve or prevent. Since people can still just post "+1000" and "@" the original commenter, I don't think this new "feature" has done anything but further annoy Gawker readers who are already irritated with the continuing redesign glitches. Frankly...

Widow Donation Scandal Continues To Raise Questions

Five days after the internet began to question the fundraising activities on behalf of Jennifer Perillo, rumors are swirling that despite her protestations of ignorance and innocence she was aware of the fundraiser and even provided information to the campaign. Jennifer attempted to address the confusion on her own blog but her comments seem to have raised more doubts about her level of culpability: I had hoped to not have to disclose any of the personal dealings I've had with Bloggers without Borders over the last 72 hours. The coordinators no doubt had sincere intentions when launching the Fund for...

Jordan Reid Ready To Give Birth Right After One More Blog Post

Jordan Reid can finally stop reaching for new content: she's on her way to the hospital to produce the little human guaranteed to provide easy blog fodder for months: Off we go!

Mary Rambin Shares The Shocking Facts

Mary Rambin is back to her princess routine. Yesterday she aired some entitled outrage over  something that would be nothing more than an "ugh this sucks" moment for most people. You are never going to believe what just happened to me. I’m not going to draw this story out.  The basic facts are shocking enough. Went to donate a big pile of clothes to Goodwill. Drove to get coffee three minutes away. Noticed I didn’t have my purse and realized I left it at Goodwill (under the pile of clothes.) Returned to Goodwill and asked politely if I had left...

Love Life Lace Says Goodbye To Internets Forever Oh Wait Jay Kay

Last week GOMIBLOG was saddened by the news that Tatiana of Love, Life, Lace - the formerly hilariously weird but recently just sort of cringe inducingly sad blog - was saying goodbye forever to blogging. And so my dears after being a part of the "blogging world" for over four years I am saying goodbye. It's been a good run, I've met many fantastic people and it's been a marvelous way to share my thoughts and my life. But I'm not the same girl I was four years ago and I'm not sure it's serving the same purpose it used...

Did Jennifer Perillo Use Her Husband’s Death To Swindle Money?

Jennifer Perillo, a food blogger, recently lost her husband. Given the impression that his death had left her and her two small daughters nearly destitute, the tightly knit food blogging community generously banded together to raise over $60,000 to help support her in her widowhood. Well it turns out the fundraising group allegedly overstated the extent of her financial need. Commenters on a post about how she's grieving through food are practically accusing her of fraud: "I agree that Jennifer does have the right to grieve in her own way, and there’s nothing wrong with traveling or spending her own...
