You know, I would love to train the whole arsenal on this one, but the fact is, the awfulness of the article (and the blog it's based on is completely self-explanatory, and to point things out would be an insult to your intelligence.
(It's like that show "Mystery Science Theater 3000" - I don't need to watch this guy watch things and make witty comments, I have wittier friends who make wittier comments, you know?)
My overwhelming feeling after reading the article and perusing the blog (as well as the blog of the "other woman" the article refers to was this: I don't know which I'm ashamed of more right now: being a blogger, or being a woman.
I'm going to stop procrastinating and go through all the responses you sent in to the Busting the Chick Lit Myth post a few weeks ago. Maybe this Heather girl will find it in her daily self-googling and maybe it will help her get some self-respect and a life of her own and stop web-stalking blogger musicians who, as Julie the Co-worker just pointed out, "isn't even hot!!!"
Oh, I was just scrolling down the page and saw where Fishy's object-of-blog-stalking-obsession referred to her as "bloggerati." There are actual people who speak this way with a straight face and take blogging seriously ?
(Yes, there are. And they live in a magical place called the Upper East Side and blog about their "addiction to Ben and Jerry's Cookie Dough ice cream" and wonder why they can't get a boyfriend to save their lives. Helen Fielding, so much to answer for.)
