I dunno about that pissed off number.. frankly 10 seems a bit low, and I think someone has been slacking if we can't piss off more that that.. :)

Happy Anniversary.... You all do a great job,and I've learned a lot! Congratulations...

Agreed. Must resolve to do more pissing off. Although those who've gone away mad, or lashed out, don't seem to need any help spinning themselves into a lather.

Shouldn't that be friends made Priceless! We have all made friends here and for that is truly priceless.

What about asshats?
Also, Technorati rank: 59,392. Not bad at all, considering the DNC's blog is only at 33,015.

Yes, but arch nemesis PeachPundit is kicking our butt (Rank: 27,401 (557 links from 125 blogs).

Maybe we should invite a few Republican asshats to make fools of themselves here. The reverse seems to do wonders for Erick's traffic.

Happy birthday!! :D

Re: Technorati - Peach Pundit gets a big ol' *yawn* from me, 'cause I'm beating them hard... my rank: 3,747 (1,099 links from 570 blogs)

Eat THAT, Erick Erickson.

Whoa Amber. What huge traffic you have. That's it, someone around here needs to take up pole dancing.

Posted by: MelGX [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 8, 2007 04:53 PM

I will.

In the chickensuit.

Shelby,
That would rule. Will you perform at PodCamp?

Posted by: Amber [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 8, 2007 06:26 PM

Maybe we should institute Naked Thursday.

Posted by: Amber [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 8, 2007 07:36 PM

Yes, that's what I meant. Although, I suppose some people could do total naked if they wanted.

Posted by: Jen B. [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 8, 2007 07:40 PM

Jen,

That sounds great. You go first.

Grift, you are no asshat. But I have the perfect asshat in mind. GOPeach has been voted off the island:
