About me: When ever I behave as a man I am called sexist, It seems being a male is now illegal and nobody sent me the memo. Good job as I would have told them to fuck off.

Click on the arrows. You'll discover that his blogs are not at all limited to 140 characters. You'll also be sorry that they are not in fact limited.

There are a few good ones about. Putnam's is hilariously bad, but you might actually like Chrys Stevenson's Gladly, the Cross-Eyed Bear.

You would think he would blog in English, coming from the US.

Never read such shite.
While there is a market for shit, there will be assholes to supply it.
