Woo hoo!
Nathan saved Annietown from looking like Anniecrap! ——-> Sidebar is back, huzzah. Thanks Nathan, one day I will make it up to you, but I am not sure how.
Speaking of Annietown, I remember when I was trying to find a domain for the bloggorrhea I went through a dozen names including, Annieland (which was taken), Annieville, Annieland, Annienation, Annieopolis, Anniepants (which seemed too porno at the time even though that is my nickname), Anniecity, and some other stuff. Basically I wanted Annie plus some sort of locale though I am not quite sure why. Oh I also thought of RepublicofAnnie but that made me sound like some kind of commie, which my brother calls me anyway. It is kind of funny to call someone a commie, no one does it anymore. Maybe I will bring it back. When I was in college everyone was calling each other fascist. For, like, doing nothing. Pass me the soy milk, you freedom-hating fascist, etc. Kind of funny. Maybe.
Yay for sidebars and non-crap blogginess!
My huzzbinnd and I employ “pinko” and “commie” as daily taunts. As in, “Please pass the tofu.” “Wouldn’t you like some roast beast instead? NO? What are you-some kinda COMMIE? This is Amrrrrca! Wooooooooooo!”
Annieopolis is the sweetest sounding, although I guess kind of hard to spell? Annietown is a fine name. It’s a lot more elegant than fucking “blog.nbc.com/latenight”, I can tell you that.
I seem to recall you calling me commie with some regularity — it was appropriate, though, since I am a commie (although I prefer commie pinko).
Ms. Biz: We definitely need more commie jokes. I worry it will go completely out of style, like those old timey bathing suits/leotard for men.
Aaron B: Seriously that is a lame blogname. At least it’s not like something.tv that would be truly weak sauce.
RT: I remember calling you student body president. Like when I first met you I was like, I bet you she was student body president. You are all into you know leading and organizing. Especially prom.
hey sometimes i call people hippies, like cartman from southpark. oh cartman, the genius of the new millenium. also, i think it’s ok to be a commie. there are way too many choices in this country and i get a headache from having to make so many decisions, don’t you? yes! no? sometimes! never? often! mostly? maybe! on a scale of 1 to 10… see if we were commies the answer would always just be “no.”
Double Woo Hoo for the triumphant return of Sidebars to Annietown AND the return of “commie” to the vocab of the proletariat. Thanks to Comrade Nathan and to Anniepants, the peoples funster in The Gulag of the Internets.
I think you should have called it “Anniesphere.” Not too many people have a whole hemisphere named after them.
Commie…
Hey, you know what you should do? You should sell Annietown t-shirts. You have fans who’d buy them, right? It wouldn’t have to be anything fancy - you could just do the banner up top, but replace your flaming name with a flaming “Annietown”. And then have the web address below. You could even set it up through cafepress, so it would cost you nothing! Self promotion is where it’s at, dude!
Weirdo: Yes it’s true. The answer would also be “more gruel please.”
Jon: But boo to Wordpress for updating and making my old plugins nonfunctional. Down with their repressive capitalist regime.
Ramon: Believe it or not that was on my list but I thought it was too much like ‘blogosphere’ which I hate as a term.
Aaron: I know, I know. I should do that. Sigh more things I should do but don’t, liek INVENTION DEATHMATCH.
Hey man, it’s okay. We’re all busy these days. At least you did TYPEWRITER DEATHMATCH, or whatever that thing was on that island where people were raging a-holes.
The T-shirt can say “Annietown” on the front and “Commietown” on the back.
ok, then how about “the annieverse.”
shirts would rock by the way, as long you put ‘or whatever’ somewhere on it! Also, if you use cafe press, use the American apparel shirt they offer. I don’t want the cool kids at school to make fun of you.
Republic of Annie sounds great. Too bad… you anarcho-syndicalist.
Are you saying you’re not some sort of dirty hippie that beats on a plastic bucket?
You don’t eat meat. You live in NYC. You went to Berzerkly. And you probably voted for Kerry and Schillery for you state senator. By definition that makes you some sort of Commie type prevert and as such a threat to God, mom and apple pie.
OTOH I should point out my own self hypocrisy. Out of utter laziness and ennui I haven’t stepped inside a church since the ripe old age of 16 or 17; we’re both of the opinion that therapy should be sought due to our parents; and the only time we see apple pie is if mom gets it for Thanksgiving (she does conveniently forgets the vanilla ice cream more often than not and I do not abide by the notion of putting a slice of cheddar on my pies- only motarded Packers fan do this in the name of their misguided patriotism towards Wisconsin).
Fortunately, you’re not an elected official and you don’t motor around in a Prius. Therefore it will take a while before your cloud of smug overwhelms the nation so I’ve little to worry about.
Tu hermano
I probably owe Nathan a beer too for screwing it up in the first place. Then again if he wrote the theme correctly the first place. I kid, i kid. I’m sure Nathan is a great guy.
Anyhow there is a new version of Wordpress! I think I’ll hold off on upgrading unless there are any show stoppers. Read: causes anal leakage.
