Blogs on 2008 - Analysis

A Comprehensive Analysis of Blog Reactions to The Year Two Thousand And Eight
by Jerry

Lots of people, including me, made posts about last year and how great/okay/horrible it was. All around the blogosphere, the reactions were many and varied, but a definite trend was to be seen.

Most of the males thought it was great, and most of the females thought it was merely bareable, but mostly bad. There were a few dissenters, females AND males who thought it absolutely sucked, but those are the same people who'd go around dressed like a raccoon and faking a drug habit for the 'tortured artist' look. No, I'm not pointing any fingers :P

Since around 80% of bloggers are female, which I assume is due to some horrible accident in the space-time continuum, the overall outlook of the blogosphere for 2009 is : bleak.

So from the male-female thing going on here, I draw the conclusion that cheese is indeed better than frosted car tires.

Anyway, I hear crackers going off all over, celebrating the capture of Kilinochchi. Though I'm a bit disappointed by the progress(:P) The way it was going, since last year we should have captured around a third of India too by now.

And last but not least, blog name's gonna change. I just realized that I have no idea why I picked this title, and that i don't really like it. I mean, look at it.

Plus, it's not like my six million- my thousands the hundreds both my readers would care much about it. So it's going down, as soon as I think of something to put up there.
