I am shutting this blog down…

a 5

No… not really… think of it as being closed for repairs…

I am still trying to break the all-time record for most comments on a post on WordPress. So for a while, I am only going to do new posts asking you to please comment on another post… ***so don’t comment on this post*** Save your energy and comment on the post down there below this post.

I changed the name of the post you should comment on.

It is now called: ‘Comment Here’… so don’t comment here, comment there… which is called comment here… uh… got it?

Don’t think of this as me just trying to get a huge number of comments for my own self-centered purposes… we are making history here. We are going to make the WordPress overlords take notice of us.

And we are having fun! Think of it as the very first chat room on a blog. We are in a holding pattern for a while. But you can not only be a part of history, you can enjoy the process. Some people are getting to know other bloggers they never met before. Some are trying to see if they can out weird me… (ha, good luck with that)… Hastywords and I are writing poems together.

So come on in… I mean, not here, down there… and join the fun. Type whatever you want. Meet some people. We are already up to 800 comments. I am shooting for 3,000. But who knows…

Look at it this way. When you saw the title of this post, and for one second you thought I was going to quit this blog, did you have a moment of panic? Did you think your life would suddenly be a little less fun, like a part of you would be missing? So that means you love me, right? Share that love… in the post down there…

Oh, and I am toying with the idea of typing a short sentence asking people to come and join us on this journey, and then cutting and pasting it into a bunch of blogs on the reader… and you know what happened last time I cut and pasted that spam joke like that… yeah… the WordPress robots shut my blog down for 4 days… so if the blog really does shut down… well… I hope I make it back…

    Humorous song rewrite time!
    (Sung to the tune of white christmas)

    I’m screaming at a white sheepdog…Each time he sits upon my chair
    It’s a thing I’m dreading, the way hes shedding
    And coats everything with hair…
    I’m screaming at a white sheepdog, If he should visit you some night …
    May his bark be worse than his bite…
    And may all your furniture be white……

    I’m not coming back here until you can clarify where the heck we are supposed to post. Twitter me when you have it figured out please. Too ambiguous for me to comprehend at the moment.

    A new teacher was trying to make use of her psychology courses. She
    started her class by saying, ‘Everyone who thinks they’re stupid, stand up!’
    After a few seconds, Little Larry stood up. The teacher said, ‘Do you think
    you’re stupid, Larry?’ ‘No, ma’am, but I hate to see you standing there all by
    yourself!’

  4. I hope you are like God…well I know you already consider yourself a god. ..but you know what at i mean….LOL and please accept all apologies for all depressing stuff I posted on the old record breaking blog….I needed someone to pour out my heat to and. …you …like God himself….was there….just like a god…only with a weird sense of humor, and i don’t think gods wears sunglasses …but I’m not going to nit pick. Also I picture God as more of an almighty diety, rather than a beach bum sort but who knows, I could be wrong. Maybe you are a prophet and god is using you to spread silliness to the world. Because this world can sure use some silliness. I mean….look at the middle east…..that’s what happens when people stop laughing. Once laughter stops, only thing left is hatred or indifference.
    By the way everyone you can probably blame me for him shutting down his other post. I think He tired of my crap…. So fire away. I’m prepared to be skewered. Even by Author himself. But i would still like you to hear the video named Storms for Arthur, which is on my YouTube account if you care to hear it. It’s one of the only songs I still remember how to play on the guitar.

    And I am enjoying going through the comments so much! 🙂 BTW I have already commented on the “comment here” post! 😀 and do tell me when you are done with the record! I would be happy to browse more of your blog then 🙂

    • I don’t know if we are ever going to be done. We still don’t know what the actual number to beat is. We might get together on that post every now and then and have a party. Thanks for helping!

    Dude! I’ve commented and recommented. (melodramatically) What more do you want! (sob)

  9. You shouldn’t make new posts until you reach your goal. Making a new post like this only dilutes the comment pool, thus making it take that much longer to blah blah blah

  10. Does it count as a record if the blogger writes the majority of comments?

  11. The Cutter's avatar The Cutter says:

    So I shouldn’t comment here, right?

    • Don’t mind me… I just realized that since my own comments will count on the total comment score, I can type this, cut and paste it into all the comments, and add to the total. Feel free to answer if you want. And Hastywords did a link to this little experiment… I am not telling you to do that… just mentioning it… oooohhhh, I wonder if I can get turned into spam on my own post if I do this enough?

  12. I knew right away you were full of shit. My first thought was…”no he’s not.”

    You like to live dangerously. Where do I comment?

  14. Does this mean you don’t love us anymore?
