Bonjour: La Linkés And Me Mad, Yes, Anger! October 22, 2007

Posted by TheHype in Linkage , trackback |

Let’s Gloria Estefan this ish and turn it upside down for a moment—starting with the anger. I’m not so much mad, because really, if you’ve been following this blog for a while. you’d know anger doesn’t really exist in my body. In fact, I don’t even know how to spell anger… A-N-G-T-Y-Z-M… can’t do it.

But I am peeved with people breaking the Injustice To Attributions Laws of Section 1b-C3 RE: Funny Blogging Ideas.

Specifically this fun, ‘ha ha’ type of flippant affair at the FanHouse to clown all the KobeKobeKobe news out there. But then LA Times had to ruin the fun.

In a way I guess it’s flattering to have one single gag idea being ripped off by the LA Times (though kind of sad… seeing that they are just using the exact same joke). It’s just 10x worse since there’s no indication of attribution, so really, that’s like getting kicked in the nuts… after they sex with your girlfriend… and then knocked over your fish bowl. Jerks. Who does that? LA Times that’s who.

Obligatory confession: I have used gags for this blog from other places over the ‘net, but at least I did come clean about it… and I doubt anyone would think it’s serious and not satire (you know, using it to make a new statement, not just copying the same thing)

Grrr. You’re on Notice LA Times. Check out Shoals’ metaphorical dagger in the face of the Times over at FanHouse in this matter, big ups!

Your html hyperlinks gals and gents:

Last couple of paragraphs in Gilbert Arenas’ latest made me smile. (NBA.com blog)

Clutch 3 rounded things with a preseason chatter with some of my fav peoples… and I’m not saying that because I got name dropped (I see you Trey!) Uh… okay, it’s totally because of that. And they cover a bunch of ground like Who is gonna have a Breakout Year. My pick: Jose Calderon (Clutch 3)

Crucifictorious finds NYT is struggling mightily with whether Dane Cook is genuine or hackery. I’ll let the Times be all “objective” and “balanced” but I’d say we should assume the worse in people, who’s with me?? (We Rite Goode)

I love Avril Lavigne. That’s it, there’s not much to it. And I’m not sure what that says about me, but at least I said it! (via ShowHype)

This video is so cool (via Boing Boing)
