Sunday Badinage
New poll up. Same list as before, but I want you to choose your least favorite In My World™ character. No wussing out on this one; even if you like them all, you have to like one less than all the others. As for the results of the previous poll, out of 1048 votes cast, Donald Rumsfeld got 39% of the vote in a ten way race with 413 votes. Other than that, the made up characters mainly ruled the charts. Buck was second with 138 votes followed by Chomps with 96 votes. George W. Bush got 87 votes, though, followed by Melinda Hawkish with 76 votes. As a surprise to me, Zatoichi was next with 73 votes. Then came Condi with 54 votes, the barely used Karl Rove with 51, and Laura Bush with 42 votes. In last place was Scott McClellan, who only got 18 votes. I guess Chokehold Boy gets no respect (he's one of my favorite to write for, though). Comments spam is becoming a new problem. It's only a minor nuisance now, but I'm afraid people filling comments with ads may end up being as bad as e-mail spam. Any smart people out there in the blogosphere know what to do? I’d hate to have to one day shutdown my comments. Here is my vote for the New Weblog Showcase. Check it out. Lastly, I finally have an idea for a full book that will use my style of humor I use on this site. It would compete against the books written by Al Fraken and Michael Moore. If anyone knows any conservative literary agents, I could use some help here. I figure the traffic statistics from my site could help get my foot in the door. Oh, that's another idea: a readership drive... New In My World™ tomorrow starring Condi, Buck, and Chomps. See you then. 23 Responses To "Sunday Badinage"
currently, scott leads with 100% of the vote heh #1 - Posted by: ryan on November 9, 2003 05:33 PMFrank J. voted for my blog? ... ... ... ... ... I'M NOT WORTHY! I'M NOT WORTHY! I'M NOT WORTHY...etc. (seriously, thanks for the vote!) #2 - Posted by: CD on November 9, 2003 05:52 PMFrank J., have no fear, MT Blacklist is here! D'oh! looks like your version of Movable Type is too old. Upgrade, damnit! Sir! #4 - Posted by: evariste on November 9, 2003 06:03 PMLady McBeth ...er Bush. She is too bosy and doesnt let dubya goof off. #5 - Posted by: Rey on November 9, 2003 06:48 PM"Greetings, friends. Do you wish to be as spam free as me? Well, you've got the power inside you right now. So use it and send one dollar to Spam Free Dude, 742 Evergreen Terrace, Springfield. Don't delay. Eternal freedom from spam is just a dollar away." Frank, you can do the MT Blacklist thing (if you aren't proficient in computer literacy, it's not the easiest thing to install but you can get help and they have Troubleshooting guides---I'll save you a step, you need to get WinRAR to unpack the file you download. That isn't evident in their instructions.) You can also use Junkeater (www.junkeater.com) which seems to have knocked them off of my site. #7 - Posted by: Serenity on November 9, 2003 07:18 PMFrank - I don't know about literary agents, but Regnery is a good publisher that publishes lots of conservative titles. Good luck with the book. #8 - Posted by: James Sloan on November 9, 2003 07:45 PMYou might want to consider self-publishing via CafePress. #9 - Posted by: aelfheld on November 9, 2003 08:22 PMFrank, I thought Ari was the best- especially when he got to tippin' the bottle. He'd get my vote. #10 - Posted by: Hutch on November 9, 2003 10:20 PMwhy do they hate zatoichi? why? hes a samuri! and hes blind! how much cooler could he be? My analysis: this is excess bleed off of the massive hatred for the new matrix, wich i find equaly insane. this world hates everything cool. bastards all of you. #11 - Posted by: non on November 10, 2003 12:21 AMAre you saying Rumsfeld isn't a made-up character?!? Do you mean there is a real Donald Rumsfeld?!? I can't believe it! #12 - Posted by: Vigilius Yaliensis on November 10, 2003 12:45 AMTake that you irritating blind bastard! I still ovted for chomps though. #13 - Posted by: Dave The Australian on November 10, 2003 12:56 AMaelfheld may be on to something. Why not take this blog thing to its logical conclusion and publish excerpts? You could do it in a daily or weekly series like the washington post does with woodward books. If it generates traffic it'll surely be picked up. "Use the blog Luke... Let go..." Forgive my ignorance, but by 'comments spam', are you referring to comments posted by people who are "outsiders" such as myself? If so, I (and hopefully others) will cease and desist out of respect for you and your talent. It would be understandable, as you get a few thousand hits a day, and the line must be drawn somewhere. I am a newcomer to this sort of thing, and so I am not familiar with any etiquettes that are particular to blog commenting. And I would be willing to bet a couple bucks that I'm not the only one. #15 - Posted by: Cpt.Dysentery on November 10, 2003 02:41 AMNo, comments spam is *advertising* in comments sections, for porn and the like. Anyone who isn't actually Frank J. could concievably be called an 'outsider' here. As for commenting etiquette, the basic rule is "don't be a douchebag." Remember that there are other people on the other end of the internet, don't stray too far from the topic, etc. Simply be nice, and others will usually reciprocate. #16 - Posted by: cerberus on November 10, 2003 04:49 AMHmph... I thought Scott would get 100% of the votes. Looks like I was wrong. #17 - Posted by: Metal Phoenix on November 10, 2003 05:06 AMThat freaking chomps deserves all the votes! Him and that damn blind guy. If at least one of those guys goes, I expect the IMW to get EVEN BETTER! #18 - Posted by: Dave the Australian on November 10, 2003 05:44 AMBuck is my hero. Couldn't you get him to find and kill all of these so called "comment spammers" ????? Don't know about agents, but some conservative publishers include Regnery, ISI (isi.org), Eerdmans, and Free Press. #20 - Posted by: Dave on November 10, 2003 09:43 PMA payday loans secured by a personal check - such as a payday loan - is very expensive credit. Let's say you write a personal check for $115 to borrow $100 in quick cash for up to 14 days. The check casher or payday lender agrees to hold the check until your next payday loan cash. At that time, depending on the particular plan, the lender deposits the check, you redeem the check by paying the $115 in cash, or you roll-over the check by paying a fee to extend the payday loans for another two weeks. In this example, the cost of the initial loan is a $15 finance charge and 391 percent APR. If you roll-over the loan three times, the finance charge would climb to $60 to borrow $100 payday loan cash advance. #21 - Posted by: Quick Cash on November 19, 2004 10:34 PMPost a comment
