My Blogging Promise

My Blogging Promise

A few days ago, my co-blogger Ian Cooper turned the blogging world on its ear by revealing he would no longer blog about Britney Spears. Many were shocked, but I wasn't surprised. Mostly because I know Ian, and I dislike him intensely. We all do. (Well, in truth, just me. Swaim only hated Ian when he thought he was Black.)

But giving up Britney is typical Ian. It's just the kind of uppity stunt he’d pull to prove to he’s better than we are. The same way he showboats his comedic work ethic by bringing you three separate stories in his Unnecessary News Round Ups. Where I come from, that’s too much work. One post. One joke.

But not to be outdone, I too will raise the bar to show I can bring the funny without resorting to easy stories. For example, TMZ is running a really juicy piece today about James Eckhouse. Yes that’s right. Turns out that this balding Beverly Hills 90120 actor from fifteen years ago is now bald. See?

Well, I won’t blog about that. Too easy. Here’s other things I vow never to blog about:

Any story involving Ian Ziering

Any story about Paul Giamatti’s thoughts on theater vs. cinema

Any story involving Raven Simone. Or if I do, I promise not to title it “_______’s, So Raven.” For example, if she were busted in a crackhouse, I might still blog about it, but I promise not to title the post “Smoking Crack’s SO Raven.”

Any story about a possible Small Wonder reunion show.

Any story about Pamela Anderson where it is somehow impossible to make a joke about her breasts.

Any story involving a Mexican boy who glues himself to a bed, and if I do, I won’t use this graphic:

Any story about Lindsay Lohan (Not the actress. I mean Lindsay Lohan the receptionist at Brickel Insurance in Des Moines.)

So there. Choke on it, Mr. Cooper.
