Internet Awaits Mary Rambin's New Site

Mary Rambin – mermaid, shopper, person who eats – is launching a new site tomorrow.

What will it be? My “sister”* has this to say about the new format:

Building out a website based on a blog (instead of it just being a blog) is a big step for me as an entrepreneur in the digital space.  On the new MTM, there will be less “lifecasting” posts, but the majority of the content will be based on our life experiences.  There is a difference.  In a magazine you have  a couple articles where the writers have actually used the products and services they are recommending.  Here, our experience will be the basis for reporting so people can see how it applies to their daily life.  The new contributors are educated, honest, and so much fun to work with.  I know my readers will benefit from the introduction.

Does this mean no more pics of Mary in Mexico?

Without Sklarge Mediaite Has Nothing To Say

Amidst rumors that Rachel Sklar, Editor-at-Sklarge, is leaving Mediate, the email newsletter has evidently gone into give-a-Crap mode.

The subject of the Mediate email has said (no subject) for several days. Is this just an oversight, or something more sinister? Perhaps without the anal retentive tentacles of Sklarge beating the backs of the newsletter team this type of mistake is to be expected.

Either way they should probably fix that.  Or not. Whatever!

Sarah Lacy Does Not Talk Crap

Sarah Lacy, globetrotter, is preparing once again to offend her friends and possibly flee her smelly neighborhood – presumably for equally smelly locations:

ugh. that time of year again. ted insufferable-ness is starting. time to offend all my friends, turn off twitter or leave the country 6:58 PM Jan 29th from web

(you know, leave the country and actually report on challenges in the emerging world not sit in a room and talk with rich ppl abt them.) 6:59 PM Jan 29th from web

I hope she leaves the country again! It’s been weeks since we got a report on what other places smell like, or how they screw up visas.

Love Puppy Demands That You Love Her

Today I was instructed by my loving and adoring fans who are all jealous of me to check out yet another Park Slope Princess. Pigeon toed Love Puppy up there has some blog where she takes pictures of herself in Crap she bought at goodwill and tells us how awse she is, and demands that you agree or gtfo.

I’ve seen the blog and I find it boring as all hole, frankly. I could give a liquid Crap what Jessica is wearing. I don’t even care what *I* wear. I also find her whole “I am SO FUCKING FASHION” attitude kind of offputting and just not my thing. So I’ve pretty much just ignored her.

Of course that’s not why I don’t care about her blog. Apparently the reason I don’t like Pigeon Toes’ blog is because I am…OMG GUESS! Guess, guys! You’ll never guess!

And I’ve come to this. Nasty comments stem from jealousy issues 99% of the time, especially on personal style/lifestyle websites and blogs. Its jealous of being in the second row at fashion week instead of the first, jealous of someone else’s budget, looks or popularity. Jealous of someone else’s skills or creativity.

Because if you’re not jealous of those things, why are you being so nasty? Also, why are you being anonymous?! If you have the bollocks to say shhh, why can’t you stand up behind it? (Trolls!)

That’s right, the final, defensive excuse for any negative reaction to your blog? Them bortches is jealous! If you are not ego fellating self-absorbed Brooklyn hipster blogstars, you are jealous. You are a jealous hater and you just want to be so so fabulous like the Brooklyn hipster blogstars. Just admit it!

Caroline McCarthy Needs A Witty Title Here

OMG BEARS McCarthy is a typical twitter user – she spent most of her night making attempts at funnies about the State Of The Union thing, and being just like whelmed about the iPad.

Now that we’ve gotten the iPad and State of the Union out of the way, I can just talk about the final season of Lost all the time. Right? 29 minutes ago from TweetDeck

Of COURSE she’s bored. Bears has some real news – something something BLAH BLAH…Bears needs apartment in SF!

The best lead I have on an SF apt sublet so far is in the Marina. I’m telling you this now so that you have 2 months to fine-tune the jokes. about 22 hours ago from TweetDeck

Hahahah! Bears needs to live near a steady supply of fish…cause she’s a bear…fish…yeah, I’m going to need those 2 months to think up jokes.

We have to find Bearsy a super sexy SF pad. Maybe something down in the smelly Mission district by Sarah Lacy!

Julia Allison Is Going To Kick Your Ass

Julia Allison, the Dutch elm disease of the internet, is going to kick your ass, ho!

Raakhee better watch her back after calling being an ex of Julia Allison a “con”! In her piece about some eligible dudes, she mentioned some Ben. Rocko could find nothing wrong with the guy besides the fact that he once shagged a founder fiend:

Cons: Used to date Internet fame-chaser Julia Allison.

Miss Jools had a little something to say about that:

You wanna start sumpin? DO YOU!? Cuz Jools is walkin around with Franky and Shorty with some chains and rolls of quarters, singing about being a Jet all the way, and if they run into you…
