  • Who I'm Shaking My Fist at Today

    Since every other group gets to have their own ish site, I want one for myself and all the old cranks on Xanga.  I want it called Cantankerous Old Man-ish or Crankish.  This could be a daily column and would be totally original.  I wouldn't be resting on the laurels of other websites by copying and pasting from FML or CheatConfession.  Seriously, how is copying and pasting going to bring people into Xanga?

    Shake of the fist #1

    This fist shake goes out to Xanga.  You try to improve the website but it goes all to hell and it moves slower than an old man with a walker in January on ice.  Oh you like colloquialisms...Xanga has sucked more than a broke crack whore trying to get money so she can get her fix.  I guess new isn't always improved.

    Shake of the Fist #2
    This fist shake goes out to the kids that hang out in front of the library across the street from my house and smoke weed all night.  You think I'm too old to not know what you're doing over there?  The smoke is so heavy that the clouds are coming over to my property and coming in through my windows making me spend the rest of my night watching The Wall and eating Funyuns.  I'm gaining weight as you people smoke it up and playing on the wi-fi that my tax dollars finance.

    Shake of the fist #3

    This fist shake goes out to BP.  You are trying your damnedest to avoid cleaning up the oil spill.  You failed at the top kill and deny that the oil has reached Florida despite people finding dead fish covered in oil along with tarballs washing up on the beach.  You know what would clean up all that oil, BP executives?  Drop those damn Jersey Shore kids in that oil.  They'd soak it all up in their hair and skin.  You get rid of the oil and hopefully the oil kills the Jersey Shore punks.  Two birds one stone.

    Xanga, kids smoking weed in front of the library, and BP, you've been fisted....OK maybe I need a better catch phrase.  And I just remembered Colbert has the Wag of the Finger.  Still -ish sites and Xanga, you're on notice.

  • Oil in Jersey Kids' hair? Nahhh...

  • @Paul_Partisan - 

    And what's funny is that after I post this my Xanga has started acting up.

  • All I can say about that (headache and all) is, Ew, a Mullah.  Gross!  Not you, of course, just that top picture you chose, Hate personified with a black turban.

  • lol, jersey shore kids in the ocean would only pollute the ocean more. as far as the changes to xanga, they need to control z and let it be. word?

  • @Ampbreia - 

    That was the first photo that came up when I did a photo search for "old guy shaking fist"

  • @royal_diadem - 

    Yes, it would probably worsen the oil spill if they dumped the Jersey Shore kids in the ocean. Maybe they could salvage all the oil by using them as oil sponges.

  • Lol, great post.

  • "The smoke is so heavy that the clouds are coming over to my property and coming in through my windows making me spend the rest of my night watching The Wall and eating Funyuns."

    Nice :)

    That BP spill has hit two childhood homes of mine now... Dauphin Island, AL, and Pensacola, FL (well, technically hasn't quite hit that yet, I don't think, but it's very close). 

  • What's wrong with Funyuns and staring at the wall? :P

  • Well, I guess as far as old farts fist shaking, the Mullahs are in vast oversupply.

  • Funny, I had this idea a while back but I've already publicly bristled at being called a curmudgeon. I ain't so old as that. But I thought there's more than few of us mature gents offering decent material now and then. Can't seem to remember what I wanted to call the site, but I couldn't tell you if that's because I'm getting old or maybe I was high.

    btw Remember when I was having trouble accessing your site at work? Now Paul_Partisan's site is blocked over here – right after I quipped on his blog about making love with Satan. Or maybe it was the comment about my exes.

  • If you can't fight them, join them? Buy half a bag, get stoned this weekend - make some brownies. OK, just buy a quarter ounce, - make a small pan of brownies, save a bit for a couple of joints? There's some "Wheelchair Weed" around here, I made 6 brownies awhile ago, didn't leave the house all weekend. Just stayed in, drank a ton and listened to some great tunes - on vinyl. Wait a sec, - I do that most days anyway.

    Don't buy any, just go over and ask the kids for a couple of tokes. That'd keep you happy for the night, you'll make new friends and won't have to worry about the little fuckers later. Just make sure you go straight home. Some of that creeper pot can hit you like a sumbitch about half an hour later. Oooops, have I said too much? Let me know if you run into any kids that have some good LSD. I'll fire up the boat and be over there ASAP

  • lol at #2 I don't think my local library would allow anyone to hang outside the library if they did that.

  • I really dispise the "ish" sites. Well I don't dispise them but I don't like them. What was so wrong with just having xanga now we have to have these other sister and brother things coming in and i don't even like my own brother most of the time.
    Maybe there's some kids smokin' weed and blowing it around my house. I seem to get fluffier each year!

  • @samanthabecicka - 

    Those kids come once the library closes and stay until the police start doing the curfew checks. When it was 100 here last week, I saw a couple of those kids standing over there wearing long pants and hoodies.

  • @ithiliya - 

    Those kids are so sneaky.

    I love how BP keeps denying that the spill will reach Florida but the tar balls have been spotted in the keys. I saw photos of a fishing group that when they reeled in their lures, they were covered in oil.

  • @Melissa___Dawn - 

    Oh there's nothing wrong with it, just not something I need to do every night.

  • @dirtbubble - 

    Yeah I don't really care about the labels anymore. I just want Xanga to get back to normal and all the ish sites to go away forever. The Mancouch one makes my IQ drop every time I see their headlines.

    I remember they had the blog rings about mature people who had stuff to say. I would join but I don't think I am mature.

    Those internet blockers are insane. Hopefully mine won't get blocked again.

  • @dikdoktor - 

    Apparently the drugs of choice around here are weed and coke. I am just baffled by the coke. At least they aren't doing meth.

    I'll have to wait an hour or so until the library closes and then I can go over and see what the kids are up to. At least the creepy guy who would sit in his car and watch porn on his laptop and spank it no longer hangs out in front of the library.

  • @Shining_Garnet - 

    Well they are doing this after hours and on days the library isn't open.

  • @NightlyDreams - 

    I think the ish sites were supposed to bring in more traffic to Xanga but it actually has taken away or at least that is my opinion.

  • @godfatherofgreenbay - ahh, that's why they are getting away with it. I think you should get water guns and shoot them with water. It'll annoy them, but be fun for you :) LOL

  • @Shining_Garnet - 

    I guess I wouldn't feel safe with a squirt gun knowing that some kids carry real guns.

  • funyuns hahaha ...i just bought me some of those yesterdayyyy =D ...but yeah the ish sites ...i don't even acknowledge datingish's existence it's so lame ...and pretty much the same for mancouch (although every once in a very rare while there's something okay on there, like that stevie wonder on sesame street video... ) ...ok, so do you feel a little better now that you got that outta your system?? ;)

  • @Peridot21 - 

    Well it's so stupid that the most popular column on Datingish is the one that recaps the "best" items from FML during the week. How does that benefit Xanga? They need to make something that is originally theirs and then it could be relevant but until then, I present my buttocks for kissing or something like that. It just aggravates me to no end. Now Mancouch is turning all dorky and being about video games. What the hell happened to the ish site dedicated to video games? Oops, it's dead. They have such pretentious a-holes writing for them, it makes me violently ill. There was the one kid who wrote about the best comedians and guess what they were all comedians that achieved popularity in the last 3 years. MY HEAD IS GOING TO EXPLODE! I hope people see that I comment or actually don't comment but just use their sites to gain eprops because that is all they are worth to me. All I am thankful for is that mancouch doesn't write about queen of the trailer park, Megan Fox, every five minutes.

  • @godfatherofgreenbay - omg is that Harry Caray?? lol ...anywayyy, yeah, i hear ya ...but datingish is even worse than the FML stuff ...i stopped reading it a long time ago, but when i used to, every time i did i was thinking "where is that child's mother??" ...it took all my will power not to leave umm a really not so nice comment... now i only go to lovelyish (and the occassional dollarish or ireallylikefood one if there's something that catches my eye... like the free donuts! lol) ...but mainly just for the eprops like you mentioned... 

  • @Peridot21 - 

    Yes it's Harry Caray. I don't want to sound sexist but when Mancouch started it was supposed to be one of the few sites geared specifically for men but take time and look at the majority of commenters. Yes, I agree free stuff is worthy of a visit for something other than eprops.

  • @godfatherofgreenbay - i think you mean that all the comments are from females, am i right?  and see, that's why i don't even think about the "man" part of mancouch cuz so many (er only??) females comment there... and it's really not fair cuz it doesn't work both ways... i mean what guy is gonna comment on new pastel colored nail polish or "should i buy a fake fendi", ya know what i'm sayin'? ;)

  • @Peridot21 - 

    EXACTLY! If I was put in charge of Mancouch the first thing we'd do is change the name to He-Man Women Haters and then we'd block all women...well probably not but I just had on the Little Rascals.

  • I know it's meant as a joke, but a "shake of the fist" daily blog would be nice! I'd read it!

    Your rant about the Jersey Shore kids and the oil spill reminded me of something I saw on TMZ last night. They asked Snooki what she thought about the oil spill and she responded with, "I don't even use tanning oil."

  • @m_kabs - 

    I maybe might bring it back for a weekly thing but it's just the idea that those ish sites need to work on something original to draw people into Xanga.

    I saw that and laughed so hard. Poor Snooki, it's not fair, she doesn't have half a brain to understand current events.

  • LOL! Great post! :) ... The oil spill is breaking my heart... :'( ...

  • @mZdejavuZ - 

    Thank you! Yeah I'm so ticked about the oil spill because they seem to be dragging their feet and they really don't care.

  • @godfatherofgreenbay - 

    Yeah honestly... there have been hundreds of suggestions submitted yet we haven't seen any results yet... *sigh* I have no idea how we are going to recover from all of this. There has been too much irreversible damage already...

  • @mZdejavuZ - 

    It may take generations to fully recover and hopefully some species won't go extinct. What is the most infuriating is how BP is threatening legal action against anyone who goes out to clean beaches. They claim that if they clean the oil and dispose of it that they are stealing the oil and that is BP's property.

  • @godfatherofgreenbay - 

    Wow, that makes me even more angry... The last thing I heard was that they were able to put a cap on the leak Friday, and collected about 6000 barrels of oil.
