Do You Have Blog Envy?

Do you have blog envy? Are you a blogger who secretly wishes that your blog was more like another. Do you wish that you had more comments or that your commenters were cooler and more clever.

Do you ever wish that your posts were smarter and wittier. Have you ever been disappointed because your favorite blogger never comments on your blog?

Are you upset because your own blog is not patrolled and assaulted by wackos, moonbats and nutjobs.

Do you question why you blog and wonder if you are wasting your time.

Do you ever wonder how many roads a man must walk before he becomes a man. Have you ever ridden through the desert on a horse with no name.

Well, have you?

    Chana/Mark,

    It is good to be at peace. Blogging should be fun and not feel like a chore.

    In a word, no.

    As it says in my sidebar, it’s me, take it or leave it.

    And about it being assaulted by argumentative retards? That seems to have slacked off completely lately and I’m loving it. Especially after a days-long assault by neo-Nazis.

    Jacob,

    Your penance is a 2000 word post about the topic of your choice.

    AMM,

    Me too. 🙂

    Babka,

    Peace is important.

    Rhea,

    That is good.

    Paula,

    Try starting a second blog.

    Kasamba,

    Good. 🙂

    JS,

    English is my native tongue and I have trouble being witty. Just work I guess.

    LT,

    If there were more of us the world might cease to exist. It would be pretty nutty.

    To answer the questions in order…

    No. No. Yes (more comments are almost always a good thing!)

    No. A little.

    Nah, I can live without the wackos and nutjobs. Moonbats would be cool, though.

    Not so much.

    Yes! HOW MANY?! And No… never ridden a horse at all.

    Well, I gotta concur with Jacob Da Jew. The only thing I envied was “Link to Jack” day. Alas, there can only be one Jack.

    sometimes I wish I could write funnier and wittier, but English isn´t my mother tongue so it is difficult at times.

    The only thing I (sometimes) wish is that I had begun my online life much more anonymously so I could write about personal things instead of making so many fluffy posts.
