Another Reality Cliché

« Last Post | Next Post »

As it turns out, I'm no Richard Hatch. Rather, I'm a Beth from the Real World Inferno Challenge.

I have quit the Ultimate Blogger competition. UB -- while a fun idea, which is being executed very well by the folks at Urban Honking -- just wasn't for me. The first few days were pretty joyless, and after secretly hoping I would get voted off in the first round, I figured I ought to take matters into my own hands. 90s-Something was a chore this week, and my intial version of it was sloppy. I can't have my primary writing project suffer for the sake of winning an iPod shuffle.

Thanks for supporting my brief stint into the world of reality blogging. (No thanks for the nasty comments and *ahem* threats. I never said my life was less "boring" than yours. I am, however, fragile and very shy.)

Good luck to the remaining 10 contestants.

More changes to come here at 20sum...

Who is threatening our Crash? We in the gay mafia are ready to issue the necessary orders to teach someone a lesson.

Classy way to exit. Kind of you to speak well of your fellow contestants.Ignore the malcontents with their snarky little bon mots. Jealousy compels these idiots to demonstrate - even more than they do normally - just how shamefully boorish, vile, and angry are their souls. Pity them.

Crash, I don't know who is anonymously posting this shit to your blog, but it is totally weak. You are not a "sore loser," you didn't "lose" anything.Your entry in the UB was totally engaging!Anyway, I understand it is taking up too much time for you, and appreciate you being a part of it. Keep blogging, dude.

I agree, cut the guy some slack. He said it (UB) wasn't for him. People can make any choices they want for whatever reason they see fit. Crash isn't a loser. Check his writing skillz. As a proud honorary member of the gay mafia, I too am ready for action against anyone threatening this fine, young, man.Keep your head up,Joel

Aww Crash... It's cool though. No matter what, your blog is still fucking awesome and you don't need to win an iPod Shuffle or anything to prove that (even though the iPod would've been nice...).

Whoever is posting the childish rants is obviously brave enough to leave their name...oh wait, it turns out they aren't and are probably a big crap-weasel...pay no attention to it and keep blogging!-Yelli

Crash,I hope you're OK, I sympathise, it's hard and I feel like I'm neglecting my first born posting on another blog. I love twenty-something and I'll definitely keep reading. Ignore the shit. People do it to everyone. They are pathetic, puerile, weak cunts. Stay safe honey,mimixx

Can't you erase anonymous comments? Or maybe disable that on your blog? In real life it's easier to ignore the idiots...
