Booble



Buon apetito! That's Italian for Enjoy the Meal! I know this, because I'm half Italian, half Swedish and two thirds Everythingelseian. Later I'm going to talk about foreign food, but first I'm going to talk at length about myself.

I like to think I bring an exotic eclecticism to the dreary, parochial world of 20six.co.uk. I think that too many people these days ignore their roots and neglect their rich cultural heritage - but that's easy for me to say, I'm Italian! Or should I say, Quello è facile affinchè me dica!* What if you don't have the continental elan, the multicutural verve, the quintessential glamour that being half Swedish, three quarters Italian and 90% self-absorbed confers? What if you're more pease pudding than prosciutto, more jelly-botty than Botticelli?

Well, one thing you can do is read my blog. As we say in Italy, bello è come bello bloggi (handsome is as handsome blogs). But let's assume everyone does that anyway. Well, you could call yourself a photographer, put your portfolio on the internet and wait for the adorations to roll in. Even if your photos aren't particularly remarkable, there will always be people who will drool over them, either because (a) they haven't seen any other photos, or (b) they want you to tell them the same thing about their photos.
If you have a blog of your own, a handy rule of thumb is to write at least one entry in two about foreign countries, or photography. Whatever your subject, tally up the instances of insight, originality and humour, and compare to the Mail on Sunday Travel supplement (MOST). If your score is higher than MOST, edit out any interesting parts, and publish for the world (about 20 readers) to admire.

Felice Anno Nuovo! That's Italian for Happy New Year! It's not new year right now, and therefore irrelevant, but it was Italian so I said it anyway. I was going to talk about Italian food, but I'm too hungry - maybe I'll have a chip butty, and then go and comment on every other blog I can find. I'm not going to read any of them, just repeat the above in the comments box, just in case anyone's forgotten that I'm half Italian. Did I mention that I'm half Italian? I did? Oh well.

*No, I shouldn't.

 why do you blog?


(10.12.04 00:17)
 Because I can.
is that the wrong answer?


(10.12.04 00:18)
 not at all.
So, why do you hammer other blogs?


(10.12.04 00:19)
 "Look at me, I need attention, and the only way I can get it is to pointlessly slag off people to try and be a bit controversial"

Most people grow out of this in school you know?


(10.12.04 00:20)
 am I hammering another blog? Really?


(10.12.04 00:20)
 Without wanting to be controversial, I'm not sure there's anything controversial here, Peterj.


(10.12.04 00:22)
 If i'm honest, I had you confused with http://ihateblogs.20six.co.uk/


(10.12.04 00:23)
 True. Nothing controversial just nasty.


(10.12.04 00:25)
 everyone's a fucking critic.


(10.12.04 00:33)
 aint that the troof.


(10.12.04 15:49)
 Quite.


(10.12.04 16:14)
 Everyone might be a critic but not everyone is a total cunt like yourself.


(10.12.04 16:18)
 Well said Midget.


(10.12.04 16:31)
 Wow, ihatebloggers, your life must be pretty empty and meaningless for you to get your kicks writing these not particuarly insightful 'critiques' of people's blogs.


Sucks to be you, I guess.


(10.12.04 16:32)
 Bubb, I'm sure ihatebloggers does suck, probably for a living in a seedy public toilet.


(10.12.04 16:33)
 Thanks Midget I felt I couldn't say cunt 'til you had. Let's not give the talentless shite any more exposure by commenting.

Just get him blocked.


(15.12.04 15:47)
 Bullying people (because that is what you are doing) is not big or clever. Constructive criticism I can accept but there's no call to intentionally try and upset people. Shame on you.


(15.12.04 17:43)
 Yes, let's all constructively criticise each other, because it's shameful to take the mick.


(28.3.05 22:00)
 I wish i was italian everyday...no really i do, i'm not being ironic.


(11.4.05 20:12)
 dude, you can hammer my blog anytime! i CAN laugh at myself. i think your blog is hella funny!
(will these positive comments save me from being made fun of now?)
na seriously, i think every blog deserves to be made fun of. i think the only thing bad about your blog is if you just singled out a few blogs like you have done so far, but obviously if you do indeed HATE blogs i guess you will not have time to get around to all of us.
(am i saved yet?)
lol, i do love the emotional reaction you have conjoured up! you must have had a little sis or bro to pick on when you were younger to know how to get people riled up like this!


(13.4.05 20:14)
 As you can see, I'm reading thru our past entries .. and I can't help but wonder .. "why haven't I come across this blog before.


(14.4.05 13:26)
 hmm - have you not got enough to say about yourself then?


(9.11.05 14:00)
 Looks like you got chased out of town? Shame. Should I start a campaign to get you back? .
