Just ‘cos you say you like me…

…doesn’t mean we’re engaged

I drop in and out of blogland as the fancy takes me, or as long as my boredom threshold will allow.

I use blogsville to try and mentally jar some inspiration for my writing. I am unable to sit on the toilet until the elusive spark arrives and too much time spent gardening…one of my favorite pastimes  will invariably see me fall off something high up or into something sharp and cactus- like. Talk about the pricks of conscience…I end up just feeling a p… well you get the picture.

Anyhow, because of my penchant for suddenly disappearing I was wondering if this may be why I don’t have such a huge fan base?

Let me expand on that…

I get ‘likes’ ( but not usually comments) from Christians. I mean for their god’s sake…why? It’s not as if I ever say anything complimentary about religion or its adherents,  now is it?

So I began to figure it out. They like my post so I will visit theirs and lo and behold there is this christian post about morality, walking with the Lawd Geez- Us and admonitions about how  I should consider it a blessing that I wear glasses as this is god’s way of warning me I should stop now in case  I  go blind.

And when you want to comment on their posts your comment is Awaiting the Moderator or worse…goes straight into SPAM. This makes me strip! I could become a Muslim just on the off chance I might get to blow shit up. Think of all those virgins, Ark

But what really baffles me is when I get a ‘like’ – and it is usually only one and they are never seen or heard from- from someone called Ho Chok Pong who lives in a smelly village in Cambodia and eats dog on Fridays and is learning English from a Cheerios packet left behind by a US Marine in 1970 and inherited from his late grandad and one day will be emigrating to the US of frikkin’ A with his Granny……and ,and   he has 289 Effing ‘likes’ on his post and 1,641, followers!!

Including 17 marriage proposals and offers of a place to live for the gods sake!

‘snot fair….

    • Again, the post is a Micky-Take on how certain bloggers ‘blog whore’ themselves all over the place merely to get Likes and thus boost their ratings etc.
      I bother me not if you wish to like or not. If you don;t like what I write, then obviously tyou/d be a twit to ‘Like’ the post merely because you want me t respond in kind. That;s a bot too shallow for me.

      My belief is simple. Be honest. If a person dislikes what i write..say so, if they want to, or don’t visit.
      If a person likes it, then great. Say so and/or and leave a comment.

  1. Helping also to balance the Internet. I don’t want it tipping over. Do you think Mr Pong would be willing to stop in Nigeria on his way to the USA and help me transport a huge fortune to the US? I have inherited over 10 million dollars but I need some help getting it out of Nigeria.

    • I am having a similar problem, but my fortune is from a lottery error that a Nigerian wants to deposit in my SA bank account. I am so excited. These Nigerians are amazing!
      They must be so happy after winning the African Cup of Nations!

  2. Are you mad about Blade Runner getting legless last night and killing his girlfriend?

    Just to go against the stream I’ll leave this comment and not a Like. There, balance in the Universe has been restored :)

    • There y’go!
      Ah so , grasshopper…. Confucius say, Hairyson Fjord better wiv partner…no good solo.

      Ironically, I watched blade runner two nights back.It’s in my favorite movie folder on my hard drive.

    • I am somewhat gobsmacked and you will have to forgive me. I hardly EVER watch the news so this comment went straight over my head…. until this morning when I heard a snippet as I passed the TV in the kitchen before i set off on my morning Jog. WTF!
      It was only then that I remembered your comment.
      I heard he is claiming something about an intruder? What is that about?
      Sorry John. My reply must have made me sound like a dick!
      The Ark shakes head….

      • with all the flamenco guitar you’re posting i think you chose the wrong continent to move to. On that note i am more than happy with my choice in Brazil. Music here is exceptional and discovering it over the last 10 years has been one of those true life gems. I even discovered that i could dance, which was nice
