We DO have naked pillow fights.

Once again, I learn to go with my instincts.

All worthy topics, but why stop there? Why not have a bloGhipster? Such topics as “How low and tight can my jeans go?”, “Which thrift store?” and “How to never get a job and live the ultra cool life”. It would be best to have this conference here in DC, right next door to the blogLNS conference. Perhaps we could have the City Paper cover the event, and maybe Fraternity Weekly to ensure bipartisanship.

I love it. I think attendance would rival BlogLNS.

Yeah, Blogher sounds like a let down. I talked to a girl who attended one and she told me it was like a Sorority reunion. I assumend that meant that they got drunk, stripped down to bras and panties and had a tickle fight, then played “I never” and “spin the bottle”. But apparently, I have no idea what goes on in sororities (the informational pornography I watch is surprisingly unrealistic).

You mean porns set in sororities are misleading? Is there nothing left for me to believe in?

BRILLIANT! I’m all for BlogHIM in Vegas.

And god Bless Irina for keeping hope alive with her comment. I KNEW they really had pillowfights.

She should start BlogNYC or BlogIrina. I’d go.

blogHim…otherwise known as Tuesday for most male blog friends. Just substitute “Las Vegas” for Good Guys and you’re all set.

Don’t try and deny it, Mike.

How did you find out about next year’s venue?

[…] Please read this. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you might piss your pants in front of several elected […]

I can’t even handle BlogLNS.

Also the nice thing about BlogHer is that men can attend. But at BlogLNS, I think they’d lynch me before I got to the door. Despite the pearls, Coach bag and Lacoste shirt.

You would definitely be an LNS contradiction. I wonder how they feel about the Chosen people? I mean, we have money yet we are not Jesus-lovers.

Can the blog hipsters go to vegas too? I totally want to go to vegas and be chill.

I don’t think so, Jo, there’s no BlogUruguayBrazil conference yet.

I want to go to BlogHim (just as I know you probably would have liked to go to BlogHer - you thrive around a group of gals). Vegas, strippers, gambling and drinking sound like the best time EVER.

That, and I’d like to see how some of these guys go from being everyday-sweethearts to online-misogynists. But I guess I could just stay home and read “The Game,” or Google Tucker Max and accomplish that that very same thing.

It’s very easy. Fear of women + online anonymity = misogyny.

How about Blog’n'Black, where all of the ten African Americans who blog can get together for a weekend. Topics of discussion can include “No matter how dorky we really are, white people will always think we have ‘edge’, ” Big Booty White Girls: Where did they come from and how can I get them?” and “Why do we feel so personally embarassed when black people act stupid on the metro?” Conference to start late because no cabs will pick up the participants (unless a non-black blogger to hails one for them.)

This is brilliant. I think there would be at least one blogger who would be into this, though.

Update:

Heather B. had this to say about BlogHer:

“…it’s just funny what men think we do there. There’s a lot of drunkenness and some boob grabbing. But other than that we sit through a lot of seminar type things and take pictures.”

And it looks like my BlogHim idea wasn’t all that original. Neil thought of it first:

God I fucking hate LNS. About as much as I hate hipsters.

If we could congregate the Smith Point douchebags with the Wonderland asshats and have them fight to the death, and then publicly and painfully humiliate the survivors beyond all social recognition, then, and only then…might I achieve some sort of happiness in my DC life.

I really need to start my own blog, ese.

Yes, you do. You could be my Padjewan.

An LNS-hipster cage match would require either a best-of-three (with venues at SmithPoint and Wonderland) or a neutral site location, like Dan’s Cafe.

Asistiré al último. O quizás el primero, también.

Sos muy amable, Andy. Comenzaré a trabajar enseguida.

I’m only half interested in Blog’n'Black, personally. The other half of me is pissed that the Asians are being left out of this. Personally, I think they’re somewhere between bloGguatemala and bloGLNS.

BlogKorean doesn’t do it for you? What would the panels be titled? Who would the keynote speaker be?

“It’s very easy. Fear of women + online anonymity = misogyny.”

There should definitely be a BlogAlpha, then. I’d buy the video of that circle-jerk.

K, you should know better than that. It’s available on DVD and YouTube.

blogblog sounds like just the conference for me
where do i buy the ticket?

Email and they’ll give you the info.

I’m supporting a movement towards blogBlasian.

It’ll offer “We’re only Asian from the waist up”, “Chopsticks and afros don’t mix”, and “Run fast, solve math problems faster”, with keynote speaker Hines Ward.

Is it exclusive? Can Arjews attend?

Hmmm…BlogArjew ‘08. It could work.

I’d start a blog just so I could go to blogBlasian. I personally think Kimora Lee should be the keynote speaker.

No idea who she is. Send me a pic and I’ll link it here for those who also don’t know her.

“How did you find out about next year’s venue?”

All the naked pillowfights have made me, like, smart.

That explains a lot, then.

Am I so painfully unhip (or Australian)? I have no idea what LNS means…

Unless you are referring to Lesch-Nyhan Syndrome, which is a rare, genetic disorder characterized by self-mutilating behaviors such as lip and finger biting and/or head banging. Or laying eggs…

The LNSers probably fit that description as well. For those who don’t know what LNS is, it’s an exclusive, invite-only group made up mostly of right-leaning, privileged, mostly white people in their 20s here in DC who have been ridiculed for their aristocratic tendencies (see Wonkette, Why I Hate DC, and City Paper). For more info, click on the link in this post to earlier this year.

They also like to smash eggs, Platypus. Poor, defenseless eggs.

Where do you get your humorous blogging ideas? I love your sense of humor señor.

I steal them, apparently.

I hope everyone can attend my guest lecture at blogblog on checking your sitemeter stats. I’m an expert in the field.

Will you also be discussing the advantages and disadvantages of using other stats tools? When you know whether you should upgrade to a paid account? And why Sitemeter seems to always be wrong with its stats?

Arjews must submit for approval to be invited to BlogBlasian. Tiger Woods says so.

Damn you racist blasians!

just so you know, our chick blogger happy hours always end with naked pillow fights. i thought that was common knowledge….

It is now.

Mi hermano, your stock just plumetted for referencing Star Wars. Double dive for using it in relation to me. Pero, a slight recovery for involving Jews.

We shall discuss my ideas tonight at BloGDrunks. We can intersperse it with our discussion of Jennifer Connelly’s perfection.

Whatever you say, Harry Potter-phile.

Harry Potter > Star Wars.

Ask anyone. It’s nowhere near as lame to like HJP as it is to have a boner for Luke Skywalker.

Oh. My. God. You are a child of your generation. This is the tipping point no one’s talked about. To think that HP could ever be greater than Star Wars? That’s blasphemy for those of us not born in the 80s.

I was born in the 80’s, and I think that Harry Potter being better than Star Wars is ricockulous.

You might be the exception that proves the rule.

Or maybe I should have qualified that with late 80s.

1984 isn’t late 80’s.

And I qualified my argument with you elsewhere. It’s of personal preference and has everything to do with the literary standpoints of each, not the cultural significance.

I, personally, think Star Wars is a really shitty story. Period. Blame it on youth if you must, but it’s just my opinion.

I think BloGjew would be hysterical! Though it would get a bit long-winded and repetitive, I’m sure. But are you sure it wouldn’t get relocated to somewhere safer than Israel? You know how scared Jewish mothers can get of their children….

Good point. Maybe the diamond district in NYC?

harry potter bends over and takes vader’s saber up the thermal exhaust port.
squeal like an ewok boy!

I just had an Italian friend suggest to me that “bloGwog” would be fantastic. Personally, I would attend “bloGaroo.”

BlogAroo sounds like a lot of fun: everyone drinks Foster’s and wrestles alligators. Anything else?

BlogGuatemala - that sounds hilarious. I’d turn up to the “Is it true Argentines have bigger penises than us?” panel in my blue and whites, pointing and laughing.

You’d think they’d get used to that by now.

I like the big G so it really all says “blo” and it’s like a (an?) euphanism. Yeah. I caught that. Pervert.

A neverending “conference” where bloggers who are naturally insecure attention-whores meet to talk about blogging and their feelings and how their blogs can bloggety blog their bloggers’ blogs. Blog meetups over white wine and cheese include blog subjects on “Am I Blogging About My Feelings Too Much? Nah!”, “How to Check Your Sitemeter Stats 50 Times a Day at Work”, and “Why Blogging About Your Bad Hair Day is Important”.

Wait. This sounds just like you. Does this mean this is one you’re organising? I don’t think I could attend this seeing as how I don’t have a Sitemeter. I feel so excluded.

Btw, when did you start getting so many comments? Ur lyke soooo popular now ArJewcy! ^_^

This is actually some funny stuff redactedsack.

I ben ROTFersburgered

A compliment? From GoPats? Now I can call my blog a web site.

I’m totally making reservations for this year’s BlogJew.

Just make sure it’s ok with your mother first.

If El Guapo is at BlogGuatamala, I will be in the front row…

It might explain why he quit this week.

Hi

Very interesting information! Thanks!

G’night
