Tenant for October 9, 2006 – October 16, 2006 October 9
So another week, another tenant. I can’t believe that these things seem to go by so slowly, compared to how many I can bid on (since I can only rent to one blog at a time, but I can rent FROM multiple blogs) and this week’s no exception.
I’d like to introduce to everyone SlightlyDrunk.com, the author is Canadian, presumed to be a social drinker, and has opinions and a way with words. To be honest I picked this blog out of the ones that entered, because I think our writing styles are extremely similar. Stories are long, and detailed, yet actively engaging, and opinions are expressed whether you want it to be or not.
I also have extreme dislikes for the following (that are all mentioned in SlightlyDrunk.com)
- Sites with Music/Video clips that play automatically
- Sites that have Pop-up & Pop-Under advertising
- Sites offering a free iPod (or laptop, TV etc) for registering for services
- Sites that freeze/crash my browser or take too long to load (which generally freezes them)
- Sites/Blogs that have small fonts, requiring me to CTRL+ a lot
- Blog pets & other annoying flash animation crap no one cares about
- Sites with the “Your IP, Operating System & Broser are…” graphics
- Abandoned sites that are never updated without explaination
- Sites that have horrible font + background combinations
Although I must admit I’m guilty of the following:
- Shitty spelling – well I ain’t a dictionary, I try my best gotdamnit!
- Donation buttons – I don’t have one, I’m considering it though, so I’m still guilty
- Reccomending unknown services – the lure of being one of the cool kids was just too much!
- Spamming entries – I gotz to get paid, and its not like you have to read them
- Posting for the sake of posting – Generally these are the spam-posts. So
Anyways, check out SlightlyDrunk.com and say hi for me. Because I’m scared he’ll hit me if I go say hi myself.
Honourable mentions to the following for not getting picked (sorry!!!):
