-Why did you start blogging?

cos i cannot shut myself up, cos i dominate all others when it comes to personal opinion and original thought.

-In 25 words tell me about yourself.

i have an inflated ego that’s not exactly unjustified, i’ll probably be shot one day for pissing off the wrong person if i haven’t already.

-What impact do you think has on your readers?

poor man’s celebrity, cult-like bullshit, intelligence, smut.

-Many people have trouble thinking of things to write on their blogs, how do you do it and keep people coming back?

wit and originality and i am good looking, i invite people and encourage them to obsess over the crap what is my life

-Who is your favourite blogger?

that cuteoverload.com meg lady

-How many hits do you get a day?

2000ish, sometimes less sometimes way more.

-You do alot of other things besides blogging, what inspires your paintings, t-shirts, stuffed things etc.

money, fame.

-Where do you see yourself in 5 or 10 years, will you still be blogging?

yes but i will either be more or less bitter, depends upon what happens between now and then

i want to say paris hilton but that’s too easy she’s like default hatred but i could still see myself hanging with her maybe one afternoon and then i point out everything about her that is bad. i don’t hate celebrities, i prefer to hate real life people, like, right-wing fag haters.
