Blogs

I'll be honest; I have a hard time saying blog or talking about blogging in public. I am afraid that I'll sound like one of you geeks who is always talking about Star Trek or fantasy football. I project an awkward enough image as it is without people learning that I'm some big loser that sits in front of a computer on Friday nights for fun.

Liz had a couple of good rips on blogging the other night. The first one had something to do with the I'm Blogging This t-shirt that Vince had mentioned. It was amusing, but I forget the gist of it. The second zinger came after I commented that Thievery Corporation sounded like electronica for grown ups (specifically, I had been playing Paul Oakenfold's Brainbug Nightmare). "Blogging. It's like whining for grown ups," countered Liz.

She's right of course.

This whole little post came back to me after Treacher pointed out this Achewood cartoon. Treacher's own little cartoon-thingys like this one have been pretty funny too.
