The Topic Is: Other Blogs

Dear Amanda,
Congratulations on discovering the wonder of blognigger. I take from this that you have been interested in mine own interests, and took mental notes on the stuff that I mentioned reading on teh interwebs. I hope that you enjoyed Blogniggerf. I haven't read his stuff for quite some time, but where I left off a few months ago (around the time I met you) it was still quite good even though he underwent a personal blogger crisis. Within the immediate internet family of blognigger lie three other blogs that may or may not be of interest to you. I hope they are, cuz I'm gonna tell you about them

First and formost comes the patriarch of this string of internet entertainment; it's the blog of the ubiquitous tastemaking magaazine "Vice". Vice, as well as the corresponding blog has always been a source for relevant sociological information pertaining to: partying, foreign dictatorships, hidden subcultures, the grotesque and hideous, art, weirdos, fashion, etc. It's mothership blog can be found here: http://vice.typepad.com/vice_magazine/ . If you should happen to scroll to the bottom of the page anjd run out of stuff to read, you'll have to scroll back nto the top again and click on the month of the archives you wish to read. They date back toi 2005 or so.

Stemming from vice, one of thier founders split off and formed his own blog. It's a bit less clever and profound anbd more fashion-y but it has its moments. Its called streetboners and it can be found here: http://streetbonersandtvcarnage.com/category/blog/ .

If you're in the mood for something as brilliant as it is hateful, offensive and politically incorrect, then Jim Goad is the man to turn to. He first gained notoriety and fame through a zine in the 90's called "Answer Me!". The zine's outlandish and provocative views on race, sex, etc. made him the target of liberals nationwide who could not help but be simultaniously appalled and enthralled by it's brutal honesty. Goad's blog can be found here: http://www.jimgoad.net/ .

Well, these outta keep you busy for the next two or three years. Waidduminute, you don't have a computer! This will take you at least five years to sift through in that case. Please be sure to write me back in five or so years when you have sorted through and had time to digest all this stuff.
