Blog? I have a livejournal, for the last few years and I also video blog on YouTube. It's fun :)
 
I don't understand the point of having a blog...

dear blog, today was another sad day in my life, I can't find a man/woman in my life. I watched the news today and it make me think to myself, bla bla bla bla...no one cares.
 
Yeah, I'm not really into that whole Pokemon thing
I heard this is a good way to make people mad[/color]

:smile: I don't see the point of a blog either. It seems to be an over-elaborative diary, so unless you're an extremely interesting person, then I can't imagine who would want to read it!

I never knew you swung that way. So hitting on new girls in the member photo thread was all a big cover up! :-p

How do you know I'm not bisexual, huh? Perhaps I was inspired by the "Do bi-sexuals exist?" thread. :-p
 
Dear Blog,

Hitting on members in the photo thread is pathetic. This is exactly why you see guys like Marlon lurking around in there.

Yeah, and it's exactly why you see guys like Marlon posting pics of themselves in fancy outfits, too.

Yeah, and you seem to be very happy about it. Perhaps your orientation should be inquired, too? :-p

I wouldn't call that fancy, but tacky.

Btw cyrus, you seem to know a lot about marlons pictures in general. Come on, admit it, there must be a folder somewhere deep in the jungle of your hard drive named 'marlie'.

No one except Jack Nicholson looks like Jack Nicholson in the door picture. :biggrin:
