ILuvBlogss.BlogSpot.Com Featured Blog No. 006: HuntingTheSnark.Net

- About The Blog: It's basically a place for me to b*tch about the idiots and morons I have to work with, sometimes for me to dredge up old stories from my past, just to put them on record. Also for me to share my interests with my readership (all 3 of them).
- About The Blogger: It's classified. I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill you.
In order to understand the blog, and also the flesh & blood blogger behind it, as usual, we have arranged for an interview with HuntingTheSnark. But, for the first time, it was an interview over the phone (for the safety of the interviewer). Eerrh .. eerrh, HuntingTheSnark is a very "
Ok, here's what HuntingTheSnark thinks about blogs, blogging, bloggers and the blogosphere in general. For your information, HuntingTheSnark is one hell of a dude you don't wanna mess with. And he kinds of reminds me of the coolness of "go ahead, make my day!" kind John Wayness ... hehe :)
MataKecil: "Why do you blog?"
HuntingTheSnark: "I blog because I can. I first met some famous local bloggers way back in the previous year, after lurking around their blogs for a while. And they, notably meesh of themeeshexperience.blogspot.com, and Hani, of the famous "I enjoy m*sturbation" post in Hani's Honey (now defunct), encouraged me. So I did. And in doing so, widened my circle of friends, made a few enemies, and considerably enriched my life experience."
MataKecil: "Which are the blog/s you normally read and why?"
HuntingTheSnark: "Go check my reads list on my blog. As to why I read them? I will follow any blog that catches my interest. There are several blogs I visit who aren't on my reads list."
MataKecil: "What do you think of blogs, blogging and bloggers?"
HuntingTheSnark: "Bloggers are people, and like any other community, there is a mix of all sorts. Sometimes you just have to take the good with the bad. And sometimes, you need to have a flame war."
MataKecil: "How do you feel about the current blogosphere in general?"
HuntingTheSnark: "Isn't that like asking how you feel about gravity? It's there, it exists, it has a momentum all its own. There is very little one person can do to change it. In spite of the fact that there are bloggers out there a little too full of themselves, thinking that the blogosphere revolves around them."
MataKecil: "What do you think needs to be done to promote breast-feelingfeeding among young working professional mothers?"
HuntingTheSnark: *nose and ears emitting smoke kind of response* "Eh .. what kind of f*ucking question is that? You want to die is it?!!!" *obviously p*ssed off*
MataKecil: *gulp* "Oops, sorry!!!." *timidly* "I mean, What is your point of view on the future of blogging?"
HuntingTheSnark: *quite obviously puffing away at his cigar* "I don't have a point of view."
MataKecil: "What do you want or hope to see in the near future (when it comes to blogs, blogging, bloggers and the blogosphere in general)?"
HuntingTheSnark: "More nude personal pictures please. But preferably from SYTs. Those of you with saggy or non existant tits, or a face that looks like the back of a bus, need not apply."
MataKecil: "Does your spouse, girlfriend / boyfriend, parents, or family know about your blog? What about your boss or colleagues? Your friends?"
HuntingTheSnark: "Some know. Most don't."
MataKecil: "If 'Yes', did you tell them yourself or did they find out by accident? What do they think or feel about your blog/s? Do they come and read your blog often?"
HuntingTheSnark: *still puffing away at his jamaica cigar* *no respond*
MataKecil: "Ok, one last question. What have you to say (share a few words) with other fellow bloggers and/or readers?"
HuntingTheSnark: "I must admit that the quality of the local writing in blogs, aside from a few very notable exceptions, does not impress me in the least. If you want to blog in the English language, for f*ck's sake spell correctly and ensure that your grammar is perfect. Nothing irritates me more that to see any language being f*cked over. Unless you're doing it as a joke, or as a pun. And no, Manglish or Singlish is NOT funny. It wasn't even funny the first time around. And posting song lyrics or online quizzes, unless done sparingly, is silly. If you have nothing to write about, don't."
Well, hehe ... there you have it. I told you HuntingTheSnark is very "
Anyway, we actually talked much more about blogs and blogging. The above is only a fraction of what we have talked about. :)
MataKecil : Cool blogger. Cool blog. :)
CityHunterGatherer: Cool ... dude. 8|
cheers,
