Jordan Reid, pregnant, will soon be not pregnant. It seems this weekend her baby settled into launch position:

“Lightening,” for those of you who don’t know (most of you, I’d imagine, since I’d never heard of this pre-pregnancy), is basically when the baby puts on his diving goggles and gets ready to jump…While it sometimes means that labor is imminent, it can also mean…well, not much. Other than that at some point in the future, I will be giving birth. And we knew that already.

With her due date three weeks away it’s time to start the betting on when little Henry Tunaicecube Reid will be settled into his crib in the house of no locks. I’m going to guess sometime this weekend, but I am not a doctor. Then again, doctors rarely predict it with any accuracy either.

And on another note, Jordan is looking mighty darn cute in this outfit. She finally seems to be getting grown up mama style right.

Rich Tong, banging a teenage model, is no longer banging a teenage model. After several days of vague references to something going down, Rich’s girlfriend finally answered a few direct questions:

Spending some last days with Penny. I’m going to miss this dog.

oh no! where is penny going?
Nowhere!! But I am :\

Anonymous: did you and rich break up?
yes

Anonymous: what happened?
Um I guess things just weren’t working out.

Well. I’m sure she isn’t at all regretting all those charming pics her greasy ex posted all over his tumblr. You could draw conclusions that it was possibly about Rich’s eye wandering towards another woman. Regardless, it sounds like something happened and Rich asked her to move out. She continues to put up emo posts that never really just come out and say what happened, so who knows. But Rich is back on OkCupid trawling for his next trophy girlfriend. Get him while he’s single, ladies! Or ya know, wait 6 months for him to tire of his next status girlfriend and grab him then.

After a brutal week of sitting in a box taking blurry pictures, Messica has finally left NYC in peace again. Despite going around begging people to take her pic for her blog (and letting her cred as some AMEX press rep get her on a couple of “street style” lists) the only non-press pics of her outfits exist on a couple of wannabe “style” blogs.

And as usual for Messica, she didn’t pack properly. Or maybe that was just her excuse to go buy clothes that looked more like what everyone else was wearing. Despite claiming on her first day of fashion week “I love the color and movement of this outfit. A lot of women are in slim cut, black dresses (which look fabulous) but I feel very me in this outfit. Bright is what I do!” within 48 hours she was at J. Crew stocking up on basic black and grey separates. Typical  her – bash what everyone else is wearing, talk about how you dress for you, but if you can’t make YOUR style happen then give in and dress like everyone else. Such a style innovator.

She evidently spent her off hours chasing down people to hang out with since nobody made any plans to meet up for coffee or drinks before she left. You’d think a big style icon like Messica would have had to be turning invites away thanks to a packed social calendar. Or would at least DM, email, or txt people about plans so we wouldn’t have to see her running people down. Why do people feel the need to do everything on twitter? Doesn’t anyone just call anymore?

At last she went back to her midwestern college town and got back to work. First order of business – change her profile image on her tumblr:

Sure. That’s an improvement. Then it was time to yell at people for attention:

Yes it must have been a real anti-climax to come home to Neckbeard Quirk holding a basket of produce and a whiskey sour after a week of being fawned on by at least 4 people. No wonder the poor girl immediately wanted to brag at calivintage about the awesome new gig she was supposedly offered in NYC.

In the end, nothing gets in the way of The Secret – Messica had to wrap up her Dress Picture Bonanza with a post about blah blah…

I had such an incredible trip to NYC this week for Fashion Week. I went with a mission to take the very best photos, upload them as quickly as possible and as I look back through my coverage, I’m so pleased with the results.  Although I’ve been a guest at shows in the past, this week was extra special and I think it’s because I really harnessed my gratitude for the opportunity.

Actually it had more to do with iron clad performance contract AMEX allegedly made you sign after your pathetisad “coverage” of FWNY back in February. Unlike tumblr, supposedly they weren’t taking any chances that you’d pull your usual stunt of getting to NYC and playing grabass and treating it like a paid vacation, instead of doing what you were “invited” there to do. It’s amazing what an actual obligation and Big Money Sponsor can accomplish with a lazy drone like Messica.

She now has no sponsors and her big plans for a Washington DC book party haven’t been mentioned for weeks. We wonder how long that state of affairs will last before she announces she will now be doing more “style commentary” and photography rather than daily outfits?

After the internet storm caused by accusations of scamming, “Anthroholic” has started shutting down her online presence.

Her blog is now invite only, her facebook page is shuttered, and her twitter has been closed. We hope this is her way of taking her apology seriously and closing things up until she can get herself together and make things right and not just flouncing to make the problem go away. With more and more information about the extent of her activities rolling in all over the internet, it could very well be the latter, especially in light of her sponsors pulling out and her online friends calling her out.

Jordan Reid, constant victim, is claiming someone hacked her website:

So apparently someone went into my hosting account yesterday and deleted my entire site…Fortunately, so far it doesn’t seem like anything else (bank accounts, etc) was affected, but of course I changed all my passwords and am keeping an eye on things. And as you can see, the site is back up and seems to be functioning just fine.

Wait…does she store her financial information on her web server? Because they can’t get in your laptop at  your house from your wordpress install on GoDaddy. Methinks Jordan doesn’t know how the internets works…

Scary stuff, being hacked. The guy I was on the phone with for two hours last night over at GoDaddy (they’re amazing when it comes to customer service, by the way – very zen, very “I’m right here with you Jordan, let me take care of that for you right now”) told me that when he was hacked his bank accounts were emptied and it took over a month to set everything right. And I think it freaked me out more than I realized at the time, because all last night I had wake-up-screaming-style nightmares about people slamming on our doors and trying to break into our apartment.

Anyway, be safe. Back up your computer frequently. Check your security settings. Buy anti-virus/firewall/anti-spyware programs. Watch your accounts.

Or a GoDaddy server disk Crap the bed and they simply restored the site while pawning it off as “oh gee guess you were hacked”. Which does happen, and is not the same thing as being “hacked”, people. And if you are storing your banking info on your webserver (which would be the only reason to be freaked out about someone getting your info via your webserver) I just don’t even know what to say.

But we are talking about a woman who doesn’t even lock her front door. I think that’s about all we need to know about this “hacking” claim.

We now observe the sensual Mating/Victory* Dance of the elusive KERF, the only wild specimen known to exist.

According to those who have observed her in her native habitat, the KERF can only be appeased by small sips of wine, bites of bread, solitary figs, and utter adoration from all who know her, see her, look at her, or have heard of her from a friend of a friend. When startled or angered, bortching, moaning and general lolsuits may occur. Do not hassle the KERF. If the KERF is spotted, a full fat chocolate bar, piece of cake, or skin-on fried chicken may repel her for several minutes. Back away slowly, then run. You are safest from the KERF at night, as the night is scary and may contain non-suburbanites, to which the KERF is allergic.

Please respect the KERFs right to privacy, she has a very expensive security system and shares all her private details from the safety of her blog.

*Because, really, aren’t those basically the same thing for KERF?
