Pimpage, Part III: The best thing to pimp, of course, is yourself. So here I am: Look, me! And look, me again! Yeah, there's no dignified way to do that. Posted by Alison-Jane at September 18, 2003 06:56 AMComments
Just letting you know - I sent those links to my email list and "pimped" you. However - I kinda referred to you as "a girl I know" when in reality - I dont. Other than through this blog of course...So - just for the record, there is a woman in Alabama telling people she knows you - hope you dont mind. Oh, both are so funny. Great job! Posted by: Wing Chun on September 18, 2003 01:47 PM"Pettiness is about having fun, not going to hell." That's fantastic. Great articles. I just recently found your site and was pleasantly surprised to read your MSNBC byline and find out that you're a woman and not, in fact, Tom Leykis. Whew! Posted by: Candy on September 18, 2003 03:45 PMYou missed my favorite petty thrill--when they have a SO or friend announce the award that everyone knows is going to be won by A. I am always torn between hoping the "friend" wins, so we can look for another Julia Roberts "my friend won, so it is still all about me", or the true acting job when -, especially with the SO, the expected winner loses, so the presenter must be gracious to someone else. Posted by: joan on September 18, 2003 09:49 PMEEEEEEEEEE!!!! Awesome articles. And way to work the whole "What the hell is a Bob Hope special doing in the Reality Show catagory" flap into it. Heh. "Critical darling, The Amazing Race". You rock. Posted by: rayvyn2k on September 19, 2003 11:15 PMCongrats on the "Friends" article as well - it was great and I agree with it all. Can't wait for the next installment... Posted by: Zoot on September 25, 2003 12:05 PMAs much as I'm sure you love nitpicky freaks who have nothing better to do than correct everybody all the time, isn't it "Hens love roosters/geese love ganders, everyone else loves Ned Flanders"? http://www.progets.com/simpsons/songs/ned_flanders_theme-song.wav Apart from that nitpickiness (is that even a word?), I love your writing and worship the cyberspace upon which you trod. Posted by: Mike on October 16, 2003 12:31 PMWell, I don't really care what the words to the song are. I only care what the title is. Its official Emmy nomination, according to the press release on the Emmys, lists the title as "Everybody Hates Ned Flanders." Which is why it's listed that way in the piece. I really don't mind nitpicking at all, when it's well-founded. Posted by: Alli on October 16, 2003 12:48 PMYou've been writing quite a lot for MSNBC recently, haven't you? I was just logging into my hotmail e-mail, and I clicked on a vaguely-interesting looking newslink, and suddenly, your name appeared on the byline. Anyway, these are some good articles.
