The Links That Made Me Popular

— Big ups to Jezebel.com for linking to me! What happened was, I sent them an e-mail asking if they were interested in my site, and they posted about it right away. I had no idea it could be so easy to find a wide readership; I thought it involved months of elbow grease and dedication, and as a result I was giving way too much credit to that asshole from Stuff White People Like.

— One thing that’s naff is when blog people do posts about the “hilarious” search terms readers use to find their sites, like “ZOMG ‘Pope Barack Obama Michael Phelps love triangle’, aren’t people crazy?!”. I know you agree with me, so I’m not going to share mine with you; they ARE amusing, but I just want to make one observation. I like it when the search terms that show up on the referrals page are something like “women in wet underwear” or “naked in just knee socks.” It suggests that the person went on the internet looking for wank fodder, but was too feckless and poorly motivated to stick with the task, and started clicking on other stuff too. Like, “enh, I could do a whole masturbate-to-naked-pictures thing, or I could just read blogs.” I think it’s endearing.

Lastly, a reminder: You can send your CTGML anecdotes to Stuffwhitepeoplehate@Gmail.com. Let’s get some submissions from men as well as ladies; this ain’t a damn hen party.
