They won your hearts and minds, eh?

Urgutha Forka on August 13, 2010 at 7:29 PM

If we already won then it's a little late to be a "war tourist" per se, but yeah, best time to get in there is while they are all shock and awed at our mighty snarkiness.

pissy mcslogbot on August 13, 2010 at 7:46 PM

Screw New York. I loved today in Slog.

Morosoph on August 13, 2010 at 8:09 PM

So, who are ya going to be hatin on next? First, the Canadians (still waiting on Judah's invasion, got my bags packed...), then New York, who's next? Boston? Vancouver?
I would, however, like to humbly suggest that all of this bile-spewing should be counter-acted with a new additon to Slog: Hot Boy Friday. C'mon, all the other bloggers are doing it (http://www.tinynibbles.com/blogarchives/…). If you need any help, I would be happy to take a break from my other demanding jobs (part-time retail thong saleswoman, volunteer condom distributor, pro-bono wine critic, toilet bowl cleaner) to go surfing.

wait: "all shock and awed at our mighty snarkiness."

should read your mighty snarkiness."
'cause i kinda thought the whole endeavor was a pointless war started by a petulant little man.(** charles **)

egads, the Stranger really is a nest of Hawks.

@5: You're still boring as fuck, you know?

Lee on August 13, 2010 at 8:33 PM

oh fun, the stanky douche apologist troll pops up again.

pissy mcslogbot on August 13, 2010 at 8:45 PM

Stanky douche apologist trolls have feelings too.

Lee on August 13, 2010 at 9:04 PM

@ 8: thanks for the teachable moment, ***SLOG Cares***

pissy mcslogbot on August 13, 2010 at 9:09 PM

Also, mom said to tell you dinner is ready.

Lee on August 13, 2010 at 9:24 PM

I'm sorry, this has become a hive of butthurt and FAIL.

Wut

Fnarf on August 13, 2010 at 9:28 PM

You know, there are 50 states and 52 weeks. One major city per state plus DC, then a day of reremberence for the fallen.

Doesn't the Stranger know there is a blog war on?

Joe Szilagyi on August 13, 2010 at 9:28 PM

@13: Puerto Rico rounds it out to an even year's worth. Do it guys!

Lee on August 13, 2010 at 9:31 PM

If you're counting to fifty, you're getting pretty far down the "major city" list. Wake me when you get to Pierre, SD or Cheyenne, WY. Keene, NH?

Fnarf on August 13, 2010 at 9:32 PM

@10: okay, but after that, lets take mom out for a FAB sparkly night out on the BROADWAY(or insert small town equivalent), she'll already be snockered **yay**, plus you know how much she loves people in tights.

"this has become a hive of butthurt and FAIL.
/thread"

oopsies.

pissy mcslogbot on August 13, 2010 at 9:39 PM

Hot Boy Friday would go a long way to relieving the butthurt...just sayin'....

Canuck on August 13, 2010 at 10:19 PM

I agree with Canuck. Three cheers for Hot Boy Friday!

kim in portland on August 13, 2010 at 10:43 PM

Is this the new Chelsea Alvarez-Bell incident on SLOG? Tune in tomorrow! Same SLOG time, same SLOG channel.

SLOG: You will never find a more wretched hive of butthurt and FAIL.

Hernandez on August 13, 2010 at 10:51 PM

I'll say this much. I read SLOG every day but I don't read any NYC news blogs... perhaps I'm missing something? Perhaps. I'll admit that.

But at least for now I'll GLADLY take The Stranger and SLOG's ignorant naivete over ANY NYC blog's pretentious smug-fest any day of the week.

Further... I don't even live in Seattle, nor have I ever lived there. I DID live in NYC for several years, on the other hand, and I can say without hesitation that there's nothing special about living there. Really, there isn't.

Just my own two cents worth, but I felt like sharing... discard at your pleasure.

Urgutha Forka on August 13, 2010 at 11:41 PM

@21 - i DO live in new york but i agree with you... can't find any blog that comes close to the combined thoroughness and entertainment value of SLOG

but i like it here.

nixor on August 14, 2010 at 4:10 AM

Oh god PLEASE post something interesting!!

shivvvers on August 14, 2010 at 7:29 AM

Stranger staff want to be a part of it. They want to be king of the hill, top of the heap.

Telsa on August 14, 2010 at 10:59 AM

@pissy mcslogbot - i must know, are you m or f?

seandr on August 14, 2010 at 11:23 AM

@25: i am perplexed by this binary gender query.
;)

pissy mcslogbot on August 14, 2010 at 12:57 PM

I say next week they start a war with Hawaii over who has the most surfable water.

ianbnyc on August 15, 2010 at 6:03 AM

@26: Both? Neither? Some of each?

Whatever the answer, you are quite a saucy little tart.

seandr on August 15, 2010 at 4:07 PM

@28: aaawww, you sure know how flatter someone with those honeyed words.

but actually, I have been intentionally vague, because the persona of pissy was always just... genderless.

pissy mcslogbot on August 15, 2010 at 9:37 PM

@29: thinking about it, perhaps not so much "genderless", just way, way, WAY gender fluid; depending on the moment.
