A "jojo"??? My god, it sounds like something akin to a "Monica"...

:)

Jack, oh Jack! My darling Dakotan! You are so right. From this point on, my site shall be called a "jojo", short for "Jodi Journal".

A "jojo". A jojo-a-gogo.

Thanks for the idea!

Can't...keep...up...with... list ... of... peeves.

I've never known anyone whose list is longer than mine. I salute you.

So, if you don't care for the word BLOG, why not come up with a new one. After all, you ARE Jodi, mistress of Jodiverse.

It's an online journal, a jodi journal, not just a Bitchin' LOG.

So, stop complaining and start acting like the Mistress of Jodiverse and declare your "Site" something other than a BLOG.

Oh no! I think the dreaded 4 letter word is in the comment I left on your guestmap. I'm sorry!
*stands in the corner* I'm a bad girl... *hehehe*
Be Well Jodi...

Of course, your disdain for the word "blog" doesn't make your "site" any less of one...

:)

Thank you. I was sure my extensive lexicon would be to some avail someday, other than to inspire the ire of those that I correct when they transgress the boundaries of correct English utilization.

In short, "Aw shucks, Miss Jodi. 'Twernt nothin'. I just been born with a pretty mouth..."

I'm afraid, Aaron, that I can't blame DesCriotion© for my outbursts. I barely touch any "meds" -- just the occasional Aleve. I attribute my effusiveness to my longstanding love of fabulous "bad" words.

By the way, the only people who should ever be allowed to use this kind of language are those who already have a command of the more "proper" one. People who have an extensive vocabulary are allowed to dip into the dregs and use whatever they find. Those whose vocabulary doesn't extend beyond four-letter words of the variety I listed in the post would be advised to build their regular vocabulary up first before reaching to the bottom of the barrel.

Thomas has, of course, earned that right.

whoa...

Jodi!

Cuntain yourself! Don't fuckget about us, your loyal contributors. Yes, shit's unfair to call this anything but a site, but let's not dicker about the name. Some suckcinct word would be more appropriate, but I won't go off half-cocked and suggest one.

jodi, we must be on the same wavelength today. i came here, saw the giant "blog" and laughed my ass off, since i had just posted something similar. the worst is people who use blog in their url. i hate that. it wasn't even a word 3 years ago for chrissake!

I think the dear boy has gone off his meds.

(That's one of the drawbacks of owning a BLOG!!)

AHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!

*cough*

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Don't you hate it when you get all excited about having four new comments, only to click on them and find that they're all from the same person, and three of them are just there to correct typos in the first?

DescriPtion. "Descriotion" sounds like a perscription medication.

Are you having trouble communicating? Ask Your Doctor whether DesCriotion© is right...for YOU.

(side-effects may include tourette's syndrome)

Of course that descriotion may not necessarily apply to everything you write....(today's curseword tirade, for example)

But Jodi - didn't anyone tell you?

When referring to your "site" the word "Blog" is not meant to refer to the common usage, that is, a shortening of the term "Web Log" but rather an acronym, describing your writing style!

Bountiful, Loquacious, Original Goodness!

See? B.L.O.G. !! That's not so bad, is it?
