Janet CollinsWhy Orble Hates Me
April 1st 2007 09:17
Lone Wolf
I’m a one trick pony.
I pose rhetorical questions, then debate myself.
I divide all my sentences into two halves, all of them.
I appear aloof.
I do not reveal myself anecdotally.
My paragraphs are too long.
My titles aren’t snappy.
I do not right poems.
I do not display a running theme.
I do not inspire discussion.
I do not write enough articles about blogging.
I have diluted the creative genius of Anthony B.
I write self centered, psycho analytical blogs documenting why Orble does not like me.

You know those posts you rarely comment on? How about commenting on mine, that is still rarely, YOU can leave out the other so many thousand.
Go for Ms Paint Art, the others are extinct almost and not expected to survive as a species, even in a zoo.
I guess Orble does hate you, for all of those reasons, but you look very attractive to me, sitting there all alone.
Of course, the eyesight's not as good as it could be and I struggle in the eyes of society to preserve any faculties at all, I'm just expected to sit here, all alone, almost, until I die.
Yes, many on Orble don't like me, either, I'm afraid I can't keep saying that's brilliant, never seen anything like that before, such a mind, such brilliant words and the poetry, it expands the emotions so much [mind you, we're not into rhyme, oh, no, no, no, indeed no, our guru does not like rhyme so we must say we don't like it either]. And the poetry is all about themselves, no elephant, flower, art, poetry here, no, it's all about emotions, our own, stuff yours.
Oh dear, perhaps I can join you on that lonely road, outcasts together and indeed from one another, perfect really, complete opposites.
So, Billy, this your first post, Anthony is a friend of mine too, one of the few, of course I used to have more friends but they have sent me to coventry prior to solitary confinement, I'm wondering if I turn out the lights will I get on with them better, I'm working on a poem, but can't escape that wretched rhyme.
Poor Billy, you've the same name as my grandson. He is not old enough to blog yet.
Good luck, young man, with your luck some ugly old bird will join you on your lonely track.
I'll keep my eye on you.

How terribly psycho-analytical of you. You smug thing. You know Orble doesn't hate you, but that it is difficult to satisfy the need for information delivered quickly, instantly and conveniently. Unfortunately your work is not convenient and nor should it be.
You write well and you write for the minority. Good on you and keep it up. Soon, Orble will love you as much as Katyzzz and I love you.

Thanks so much for the comments, it seems Orble loves a lone wolf. I agree with you, it is hard to constantly supply bloggers with positive feedback and detailed notes on how their blog (in particular) has changed your life forever. However, I suppose that is why we all write in the first place – to achieve some sense of recognition and acceptance of insight.
I shall make sure I venture over to MS Paint Art!
Anthony,
Don’t worry, my popularity won’t last for long. I’ll soon be back to the long winded, pop-psychology social commentaries.

I wouldn't complain too much though Katyzzz, your posts get into the Top 10 often enough.

What are you complaining about?
Are you looking for popularity?
Whinging about not being 'popular' (whatever that means) isn't going to help.
Whining about how no one likes you just because you can't say anything nice doesn't help either.
It's not hard to compliment people on their writing if you enjoy it.
It's not hard to interact in a positive way.
And it's certainly not hard to be the kind of person that people want to interact with.
And if they don't....so what right?
They're obviously just a mean flock of sheep and that river in Eygpt is a good place to be...
By all means, I am curious as to what your

Thanks Mrs M,
I am feeling better! Maybe now I finally have the confidence to come out of my darkened shadow of blogging related shame. That is, until the next post reminds people of the reason why Orble hated me in the first place. But for now, I’m on top of the world!

Thanks for visiting. However, I can hardly respond because this post was written by a former writer on social critic back in April 2007.
Would be happy for you to vist again though.
Cheers
