Bonfire of the Vanities – Week 12

September 23, 2003 Bonfire Of The Vanities 8 Comments

My demented labor of love The Bonfire of the Vanities returns to bash you over the head with the worst the the blogosphere has to offer. The motto this week is “How To Tell You’ve Got Too Much Time On Your Hands.” This weeks entries prove that you should never hit the Canel button when making a post. All of this weeks entries have been gladdy offered up to the raging inferno that is the Bonfire…

Bonfire of the Vanities

If you want to be reminded to enter the Bonfire each week via e-mail, subscribe to the Bonfire mailing list. If you want to send e-mail to Glenn Reynolds for the love of God; please, please, please leave my name out of all correspondence bound for Glenn Reynolds. Contrary to what the voices in your head may be whispering to you – I did not tell you to send a message to InstaPundit. Frank J, on the other hand, did.

On with the “Very Special Episode of the Bonfire”…

Blowing Hurricane Force Methane Into The Blogosphere

  • Harvey reveals that his wife is the real talent behind Bad Money. Like a twisted stage mother he keeps hoisting her out onto the Bonfire stage.
  • Paige chastises visitors looking for porn. HE is obviously new at the blogging game, how do you think I get all my hits?
  • Susie whores out the Bonfire for another contest.
  • King of Fools lives up to his moniker. Perhaps that should be Knig of Folos?
  • Margi vividly illustrates the lamest meme from last week.
  • Doc Rock sent me a link to edit her Bonfire submission, which even though it was a unique entry didn’t exactly make for interesting Bonfire reading. One word: Permalink. I’ll go out on a limb here and guess that the bleeding handyman story was what she meant to send. Of course it could have been part II of the bleeding handyman story.
  • Heather (aka Helen without vowels) discovers that Frank J’s Ethel nickname may be more accurate than we ever knew.
  • Jen has a candid admission about her preference in *cough* size. Small handed men have formed a line that wraps around the building at this point.
  • McGehee thinks ABC killing off the John Ritter character may not work. What he fails to note is the “big surprise”. The hot daughter, so overcome by grief, takes a job as a lap dancer. Hilarity and ratings ensure.
  • Phelps mocks the giver of Instalanches. Apparently no one ever explained to Phelps that the BlogFather nickname is not just another of the many names Glenn goes by. You think he got all that traffic by accident? That new stadium the Titans play in isn’t known as the Tennessee Meadowlands for nothing
    Let's Get Ready To Rumble
    RIP Mr. Carlson

    For some reason, none of your Blogger blogs have links that work.

    hlh – Blogspot is having a cardiac event right at the moment. Only the front pages of the blogs are being served (no archives). Try again later.

  3. Kevin September 23, 2003

    I just noticed that as well. I tested all of those links last night and they worked fine. I’ll add a link to the front page of those blogs, but that kind of defeats the purpose of going to the post in question.

    Ahhh! Thank you – just another day in blogspot land. Can we just feature all of blogspot in next week’s Bonfire?

    Blogspot’s having problems? That’s odd…

    Kevin – DAMN you for the ear hair mental picture. If you’ll excuse me, I have to poke my brain with a Q-tip until the image recedes.

    I demand a public apology and correction. Your words “Paige chastises visitors looking for porn. She …” need to be changed immediately to “Paige chastises visitors looking for porn. He …” Thanks. 😉

    Muchas grac

    Wow, I thought he made a mistake when he wrote He when referring to Paige as I have known a few females named Paige, but never any males named Paige. I guess I was so busy last night trying to get my blog working again, I forgot to send anything in and I had several that needed to be burned, I think, last week. Oh well, que sera, sera.*

    *Did you know I could not for the life of me remember how to spell the first word of that last night?**

    **Oh, by the way, I wish everyone had those text formatting buttons on the bottom of their commenting boxes. 😉
