Illuminating The Blogosphere With Heroic Displays Of Ineptitude

  • Harvey doesn’t tell jokes when the wife is reading the blog, he links them. And a bonus link to a good post that points out the Bonfire-ish ineptitude of a religious currency defacer.
  • Susie points out that the “lunch rush” at her blog consists of 8 “customers”. Note to Susie: Liver and onions never draws a big lunch crowd.
  • McGehee is shocked and dismayed that his Google rank for the search term “cartoon pictures of lawnmowers” is falling fast. Let me repeat that one more time: “cartoon pictures of lawnmowers” is not a good way to find McGehee on Google. After today though it will be an excellent way to find Wizbang.
  • Tiger is mocking an unemployed former sex addict president by writing journal entries in his name. It is beneath all level of civility and decorum, hence it is a natural for the Bonfire.
  • Jay pulls a Sally Field award show moment in thanking everyone who links him. Then he goes all beauty queen contestant to close out his acceptance speech
  • Adam shamelessly google baits for supermodels, BET readers, and Britney fans; baby, baby one more time.
  • Pete single handedly tries to help InstaPundit regain the top spot on the Ecosystem. No Instalanches were forthcoming. Note to Pete: Always say something nasty about Frank J for those.
  • Sean started a weblog weekly pick ’em game. It was too complicated for him, so he joined mine.
  • I offer up this post where I highlight “Pornography The Musical” solely because the word “bukkake” is funny. Take that you Google baiters!

    August 8th? I assume you mean September 8th. Unless that’s some sort of inside joke I’m not getting.

    Fixed. Entrants for the next edition (Bonfire 10) will no longer need to travel backwards in time to meet the deadline.

    Damn, and I was one diode away from repairing my time machine. Oh well, I can always go back and save John Connor.

    It’s the Texas A&M bonfire. After the collapse I’m not sure if they do it anymore.
