Things I hate about your blog

Tuesday, June 3rd, 2008

The definition of "your" that should be applied is one that applies to the blogosphere as a whole.

1. You have some type of video or music that plays automatically when I visit.
2. You haven't tested your blog in Firefox to make sure it's legible.
3. It's hard to comment because you're on Livejournal or AOL.
4. Your posts only show a few words and then I have to click to read the rest, every single time.
5. I can't subscribe to comments or your comment feed.
6. You have too many options when I'm trying to leave a comment.
7. You don't have comments open.
8. Every post is an apology about why you don't post enough, and then you don't post again for two weeks.
9. You use so many cutesy names for everyone that I have no fucking clue who's who.
10. You don't link to people when you use something of theirs.
11. Your ads obstruct your blog.
12. Your post is all one big jumbled mess in the feed reader.
13. You moderate comments.
14. You censor or edit comments.
15. You change blogs every three months.
16. Every other post is a Pay Per Post.
17. You don't try to use any type of spell check.
18. Most of your posts are private and password protected.
19. The colors make my eyes bleed.
20. Your posts are longer than most novels.

What do you hate about people's blogs?
