Now this is a weblog award I can get behind

The Poor Man Institute has published the nominees for Wank [blogger] of the year. It’s like picking a puppy, I don’t know which one to choose.

The irony!

So right after I go and criticize the Weblog Awards, they go ahead and nominate me for an award! Hilarious!

Don’t worry, as I said in my post, you won’t see a daily campaign from me to rack up votes.

Oh. My. God

One of my largest Google referrers is my “Open letter to Carlos Mencia” post that I wrote a few years ago. It still gets a few comments a month. Given this fact, it’s hard to articulate how giddy I felt when I came across this Funny or Die video:

Craigslist ad of the day

You know you’re in a recession when:

I am a female in my mid 60’s and I am looking for a room mate. Times are tight and I need some extra money.
I am willing to rent out my bathroom in my 1 bedroom east village home.

My bathroom is large. You can easily put a twin air mattress in there. I only ask that when I need to use the bathroom, you or your air mattress are not in it.

I do ask that when you are in the apartment, you confine yourself to the bathroom. I do not feel comfortable with a stranger walking around my living room. This might change as I get to know you better.
You may have guest over as long as they are cnfined to the bathroom as well. This might seem a bit odd but please remember the rent is $400 and the bathroom is large.

Humorously sad quote of the day

A tweet today from Clay Shirky, author of Here Comes Everybody:

I think it’s time for Nick Carr to write a follow-up to his “Is Google Making Us Stupid” piece: “Is Twitter making us lazy and stupid?”
