Slog - Comments on Dept. of Self-Indulgent Slog Posts
From the comments: I don't care about Stranger employees hand washing habits, smells or menstruation cycles. STOP IT ALREADY! It's very self indulgent. Please show some restraint. Darn. I was just sitting down to write a long post about how I don't wash my hands after I use the toilet on an airplane because I figure my dick has to be the cleanest thing I might touch in one of those toilets....

  Honestly, the commenter has a point ...

  Also, I don't like the tone of this post. Please stop posting anything that has a snide or sardonic tone.

  Or any tone at all.

  Why does anyone post anything on Slog at all?

  Hahahahaha!

  (Dan's probably right. I feel the urge to slather my hands with Purell just thinking about airplane sanitation.)

  Riiiiight, because as we all know, no one has ever used any of the roughly 100 million blogs currently trucking through the Interwebby tubes - IN THE ENTIRE 23 YEAR HISTORY OF BLOGGING - to post anything even remotely self-indulgent.

  And of course, it goes without saying that commenting on allegedly "self-indulgent" posts isn't in any way shape or form considered self-indulgent behavior.

  So just knock it off, Stranger.

  You KNOW that there are other people who wait till about the overfly of Kansas to go into that same bathroom to purposely breathe through their nose, not through their mouth.

  JUST like with TV, I'm able to ignore SLOG posts that don't interest me.

  But really, I like the random shit posted here. Octopusses fucking fisherman's wives, blood-soaked bathroom floors and all.

  I like all the comments too, even from the haters. I love a good "wack-job" post.

  ONE KNOWS THAT ONE MUST ONLY DISCUSS CURRENT EVENTS IN ORDER TO ENTERTAIN THE MASSES AND FEED THEIR APPETITES FOR ALL THINGS NEWSISH. SOYLENT GREEN IS PEOPLE!

  COOOOOOOOOL! My comments actually made it on to a FRONT PAGE SLOG post. I have arrived. Aw shucks, thanks Dan!
  XOXO, Mrs. Y

  Speaking of your dick, Dan, i would *love* to see it. Are there any pix posted on the internets of it?

  If not, can you share some?

  many thanks.

  I don't get it. What does the Stranger want the Slog to be? The watchdog of community issues or a bunch of good-time Charlies? You guys waver between this "look at us, we're so wacky here at the Stranger, ain't we got fun" stuff and then turn around and tut-tut your rival journalists. It's like reading Sybill's diary.
  
  I have a long, boring bus ride home - I spent all of 10 minutes with the Stranger tonight, but I read nearly every story in the Weekly. It used to be the other way around.

  I hate those little signs they've put up in airplane lavatories urging people to wipe out the sink basin "as a courtesy to other passengers."

  I'm as courteous as they come but I'm nobody's maid. Also, gross! I'm not sticking my hands all up in someone else's handwash, spit and whoknowswhat.

  Monkey and Callie (from the previous thread about blood on the floor)- As a consumer of the SLOG don't I have a right to voice my opinion about what I would and would not like to see posted on the SLOG?

  And, no it's not really like TV. I can't choose my programs without ever having to flip on CBN and other things I don't want to watch. I HAVE to roll past the idiodic posts about some Stranger staffers hands smelling like shit even after washing them-- just so I can get to the good stuff like my daily Chris Crocker video. So there!

  Dan, your son must be proud.

• Comment by Chris
  

  Those Chris Crocker videos are submoronic. I only watched the first one up until he said "Bitch, please" once, and then I turned it off in disgust, wondering why anyone would bother feeding into such a terrible attempt to attain artificial celebrity status.

  I never even thought to tell anyone to stop posting them.

  I think there are Weakly trolls lurking here on Slog. Here we are at Slog, tons of comments on lots of posts. Go over to the Weakly where it's hard to find a comment that isn't written by a Weakly staff member. What does it tell you that the Weakly has to come on to the Stranger's blog to tell us how much better a read the Weakly is? Give it up, Weaklites. Your paper sucks, you suck, and you're "Gee, I used to love the Stranger but now, man, the Weakly! Wow!" posts aren't fooling anyone. But yourselves.

  Dan raises an important point. Take a random sample of guys, and you'll find their large and sturdy cocks are much cleaner than their hands. If anything, our hands get our dicks dirty when we pee, not the the other way around.

  It's time to put an end to our culture's phallophobic assumptions.

  @10 addresses a real problem that the slog has now.

  You don't have to be a "Weakly troll" to be sick and tired of all of the petty rants against the Weekly and every other paper in town lately. Do they think that these posts will boost their circulation? Yeah, right. All I can do is scroll through the crap and look for something more interesting.

  The slog used to be a really fun destination, but now we have to endure this juvenile turf war, compliments of the "cooler-than-you" Stranger staff. I think that's why there are so many negative comments these days.

  If you think the "Weakly" sucks, then don't pick it up. (I've never worked there, but I'm guilty of reading it now and then.)

  The Weekly bashing does seem to boost loyalty among the losers who hope that identifying with the right brand of newspaper might transform them into someone cool. Also seems to play well with their socialist base.

  Personally, I'm in it for the journalism, and I find Weekly very readable.
