Our Disclaimer
Becky: I know I promised a new layout, but Natalie Jost is a horrible theme maker so until I wrassle that template into submission you’ll have to deal with this layout. Problems? No. Good.
Sarai: It’s worth the wait, I think. We seemed to be in a drama slump the past couple of weeks, but it seems we’re back in full force, y’all!
Becky: Yep, drama has been brewing in several places. For starters both Amanda, formerly of love-amanda.net and lovingly dubbed Miss Piggy, is back along with her friend Colleen. I got some stupid person to shut their site down, in spite of the fact that it wasn’t my intention. But that’s not what we’re here about!
Sarai: Right you are, Becky. But God I missed those two. I hope they update. I know Colleen is a bit slack-ish when it comes to updates, unfortunately.
Becky: It’s hard to update when you’ve got two handfuls of chips. Or when you’re busy trying to convince the government that you need money more than Katrina victims….
Sarai: Trust me, I know.
Becky: Anyway what we want to talk about is Disclaiming Drama: A Critique.
Sarai: Yes! Yes we do, because I felt it was well written and to the point. Hard to find that these days.
Becky: Yeah and then Sarai beat me with her weave until I agreed to do it.
Sarai: Shh, Becky. God.
Becky: Rhiannon’s WBB’s are much like our own investigations, except I have Sarai, the Russell Crowe of the internet. You should see her rip payphones outta the wall. Two, three sometimes four at a time!
Sarai: I felt Rhiannon was pulling strong in her article, and then she said a few things that just… ended up backfiring in the end, as Belinda demonstrated in her newest blog. We love Rhiannon, but we have to give props where they’re due.
Becky: Right in spite of the fact Rhiannon has more errors than Myspace (holla!). I really do love her, and I don’t love many people. However, Belinda had quite a few points even though I disagreed with some of what she said.
Sarai: Okay, let’s talk about what we agree with Belinda.
All I’m saying is, Rhiannon’s disclaimer is flimsy if she’s trying to justifying it from the point of view that people with “attitude” deserve to be called out because as pointed out above, that’s not what’s happening. Some of those WBB articles hit easy targets of bad sites with flying penis layouts and lurid green backgrounds (in firefox). She no doubt writes her very popular WBB articles because it entertains a large number of visitors who think it’s funny to mock bad sites. I’m all for free speech; my point is not that Rhiannon should remove her articles and censor herself any more than I would advocate that the author of Men Are Better Than Women should remove his articles. The latter writes caustic and insulting articles too, but at least he doesn’t try to mask what he’s doing as anything more noble than appealing to and entertaining people who think one sex is inherently better than another.
This is where Belinda seals the clincher for me. She is careful not to make Rhiannon look like a dumbass, but inadvertently, she pwns.
Becky: Same passage I was just copying and pasting! Spooky. Yeah me too. I think that if you’re going to do anything like this you have to just admit that it’s immature, stupid and fun and move on. There is no way you can really justify this because it’s immature, childish bullshit.
Sarai: She’s also very resourceful when it comes to examples.
It is false to justify being negative by presenting the only alternative as sugarcoating. It’s absolutely possible to give constructive criticism without being insulting. However, if your aim is to be insulting because it’s fun for one’s audience who likes reading such drama-fueling language, why not just admit to it?
This is where PSGR and IP differ. We know what we are. Rhiannon does too, I think, but in her article, she sort of forgot to mention it? Wewpz?
Becky: Yes. So we’d like to state loud and clear: Sarai and I are immature fuckwads, we enjoy making fun of stupid people and posting it on the internet. Whilst sometimes these people are getting their just desserts, neither of us believes that we are the ones who are supposed to dole out just desserts (and why the hell would we give away desserts anyway?). Nothing we do is nice and it’s rarely ever constructive.
Sarai: Couldn’t have said it better myself. From the beginning, we’ve been straightforward: We’re pussy lickin’ bitchez y’all! However, that’s not to say we won’t lend a helping hand. Jessica from swimchick.net would be a prime example.
Becky: Yes, I’ve been helping Jessica out with her coding problems, and I’ve been doing it nicely too! So has Sarai.
Sarai: Helped her validate a few things.
Becky: Oh and I’d like to point out that these are our real names, at least until I change mine to Shanika Diva, no anonymity here!
Sarai: Shanika Diva? Then I shall be Shanaynay Fontaine.
Becky: Shanika Diva and Shanaynay Fontaine together at last.
Sarai: Chu know how we do.
Becky: Can I go on Flava Flav’s show? Can I? Can I?
Sarai: Oh for fuck’s sake.
Becky: Aw c’mon you can come too!
Sarai: Let’s chat real quick about the PinupDoll drama instead. Because fuck Flava Flav.
Becky: Oh right, right. I gave her a little pwnt on my blog A cautionary tale for you young’uns, but this is just so damn lulzy. May I quote a few passages from her blog Sarai?
Sarai: Yes please. As if you have to ask, Shanika.
Becky:
What you seem to misunderstand is that I can take constructive criticism if you come at me correct. What Miss “Bobbi” did was immature.
If it came at you correct? Aight I can do that, Shanaynay hold my weave.
Sarai: Oh, shit. * clutches * The thing that gets me about all this hoo hah is that, holy shit that sidebar IS fucking long, man. There is no excuse.
Becky: It’s almost as long as Janet’s! And that’s pretty long man. The layout on pinupdoll.nu is so damn ugly. Red text on a black background? BITCH PLZ. No contrast, horrible font size, long ass sidebar… I think we have us a new winner for worst website in the world.
Sarai: Actually I must disagree. Natural Diva will always be the worst for me. Yeah, or Chette’s Blog or maybe Scandalous.
Becky: LOL You’re just saying that because her left tit is the size of two of your asses. I LOVE CHETTE! I really do.
Now here’s mah reason why I haven’t updated much last August. Last August… God made me focus on my Ministry. You see… from Monday to Saturday non-stop going to church!
Yeah? You know what that reminds me of? An insane person who hears voices in their head. “Karl told me to kill fiddy people.”
Then because of that, satan attacked us by cutting off our electricity and our internet. I thought it was my fault. But then, God revealed something to us… the Big Big Problem… and at last; God solved it.
Sarai: Well goddammit.
Becky: God solves everything!
Sarai: Satan has been making the rounds around my neighborhood then, goddaym.
Becky: Satan made the natives and rednecks cut off my hydro last year.
Once you are working for God… satan will surely attack you
I thought the whole point of being Christian was to save yourself from Satan’s evil clutches?
Sarai: It is, it is, but he has a habit of trying to fuck wit dem. ANYWAY.
Becky: Gabba?
Sarai: Goo?
Becky: Ah.
Sarai: What I love was her response? Her subsequent blog entry and… 3 edits was it?
Becky: At least 3 edits.
Sarai: Yeah well, I thought it was lulzy. Jordie talked about it in her latest blog. She has practically a wiki-style entry on it. The Dramuh Llama, Issue 2.
Becky: Damnit quit reading my mind.
Sarai: Goddammit. It’s not my intention, my lil’ diva :-(
Becky: Oh okay good my big diva.
Sarai: Oh you bitch.
Becky: Okay so let’s just wrap this up before I start beating Sarai up?
Sarai: Basically, I love the internetz. That is all, really.
Becky: We’re immature, stupid people who were probably beaten as children and bullied because we’re fat and ugly. Sarai lives on a straight diet of cheetos and coke and I’m a chocolate and coffee fan myself. That is all from my end.
Sarai: But but Becky, we turned out just fine! (I love us.)
Becky: Yeah obviously they never talked to Mallory SHE’S THE LEADING EXPERT!
Sarai: Hey, who you calling immature bitch?!?
Becky: You?
Sarai: Let’s close this shit so I can pummel yo’ flabby ass.
Becky: I thought that was obvious. ONYD!
Sarai: I SAID LET’S GO.
Becky: Close the curtain. CLOSE THE DAMN CURTAIN. I’m beating yo sorry azz.
Sarai: WE’LL SEE WHO’S SORRY. >:(

hehe so you high fives
Just a little note, while I don’t really care about religion anymore, I did attend all my RE classes (starting junior high), and among other things I have been told that Lucifer tempts those most who are closer to God. I’m assuming it’s a “much more fun to corrupt the pure” kind of thing. So she’s right about that… well according to the Church at any rate.
