I Hate the Haters
So what if I haven't updated my blog in 4 years? Did you think something has happened to me in the last 4 years that was important enough to do an update? Maybe I've been in a coma. Maybe I've been busy with important things. Maybe I've done absolutely nothing worth mentioning?
Or how about this? Maybe I've been in an ecstatic mood, loving life, and not hating anything? Try to wrap your mind around that one, Chachi.
A few days ago, I'm contentedly sitting in my favorite chair, when my laptop starts beeping madly. I look at it, and find no less than 38 IM's from Stewie. All of them saying something to the effect of, "ZOMG!!!111!!! if you don't update your blog I'm going to take it off my favorites!!1!1!!"
You know what? I hate shit like that. Kurt Vonnegut's, "Breakfast of Champions" is one of my favorite books. It didn't stop being one of my favorite books because Vonnegut didn't keep updating it continually. Apples and oranges, some might say, but to me it's not. The body of work that I loved hasn't changed, just like the body of work I created did not change. Whatever caused it to be a favorite of Stewie's is still there and should still be a favorite. But he's a fickle asshole, so screw him.
When I came here this morning, I saw a lot more comments on postings than there used to be. I read them, and what did they say? Basically, "I hate it when people don't update their blogs." You know what? I hate it when people get on my case about the blog. Life is tough.
So for all the Haters out there, here's an update. Merry Christmas. Don't say I never got you anything.

Merry Christmas to you too, sir!
But it was 35, not 38.
I don't know why you have to exagerate to make yourself look "cool."
That said, your gift of blog was better than the Utah fair!

Wow, that says a lot. I feel bad now for exaggerating, although I still feel cool for doing so.
I don't mind when you don't update your blog, and you're still on my list of favorites. But I don't get 1/10th the readership Stewie gets, and I don't care 1/10th as much about who updates.
And that Ace, is why you're a true blog friend. You keep it real.
GO FUCK YOURSELF.
