Tonight on BoB-Line

We'll interview fictional characters played by actors whom we'll use as TV witnesses in a trail by media and we need your help for a guilty verdict.

The power of sensational TV news cannot ever be overstated. GBoB actually spent time watching some of that trash on TV tonight. Why? Well I kinda wanted to get back to my roots which happen to either be Salem late 1600's or sometime during the Spanish Inquisition.

So whats wrong with these shows? Well for starters they never tell you enough to make an informed decision about what they are arguing about. One little tiny detail gets left out which either would make or break the case they are presenting. Next they start and finish any argument. They start off attacking something give someone a chance to respond then make a second argument without giving the defending party a chance to respond to the new allegations.

What can be done about this you ask? Well for starters more people should watch Judge Judy. I suppose I could say because it'll give people some sort of arguing skills but really it's just because it's a cool show. The verdicts for 95% of the time make sense and the other 5% is because I didn't see it all.

Seriously if people wanted to do investigative journalism TV shows legitimately they should go for Judge Judy except during prime time where people can argue their cases as if they where in court. Ofcourse due to editing you'd still miss out on that final vital verdict and the one piece of information that you need to make up your own mind.

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG!!!

Generally stands on this site as Oh Magnificent Gangrenous BoB!

Star Date 12345678931415926594811111.131241 these are the recording of captain Robert "Gangrenous" Ranger and his never ending quest to find the perfect blog topic.

Who is Robert "Gangrenous" Ranger you ask?

It's good old me playing Anarchy Online. Well one of my characters anyway. See it's actually Gangrenous BoB incognito.

Well the most important thing is that, I unlike so many hopeless people, I have found out how to put comments on my site. Now I know what I typed earlier. Last year infact. I don't want anyone putting star trek questions in the comments regardless of how many star trek parody's I do ok.

Anyway I was reading this site and got a link to haloscan and Wham-O! Free Comments!

Reviews

It seems that every site bar one that was updated when I logged in was a review blog. It seems GBoB is behind on the times. This blog doesn't actually review anything. Well nothing that can easily fit into one catagorie like Midgets of Peru or Psionic Monkeys. What I need to figure out is something that I can review on a weekly basis using only one catagorie. Having no imagination what so ever (having sold it to some Music Executive) not that it worked right before hand, I'm forced to come up with a big fat nothing.

Having said that here are some of the more funny review sites I have found.


Unfortunatly due to lazyness I was unable to compile a list though I did write a review for the list.

The list if thats what It could be called consisted primarily of fart and weiner jokes without a single link to any sort of blog or review site. The complete contempt that the author has for his readers was apparent with the third listing which stated that his readers where nothing but pimple faced nerds who should do something better with their time than read stupid lists in the vein hope of seeming intelligent the next time they list off the top 10 Starwars sites to a potential date.

The author for some bizare reason listed cats four hundred and sixty four times in a row before listing dogs a further forty seven. Numerous spelling mistakes where in the list which included cat spelt as kat and dog as furyAnimalThatChasesCats(). This was followed by what seemed to be extreamly bad poetry. It is the reviews opinion that the author is either mentally handicaped, 4 years old or feeling the effects of a 3 day drinking binge.

The reviewer feels that this list should be destroyed and never looked apon by any creature more intelligent than a beaver and that the author should be ashamed with themself for demonstrating that even the most stupid of all creatures can be at times smarter than some humans.

Out of a score of 100 using the standard Computer gaming magazine scoring method (95 is average) this reviewer gives it a 28 out of 100.

Long time between updates

Now I suppose I could go into some long rant about how I'm sorry that I haven't updated this blog in a while. I could do that, though I'm too lazy and you don't want to read about it. What you want to read is quality GBoB blogs! Well as good quality as they get. Considering that the average GBoB blog is written at 4:30am in the morning after a night of binge drinking you'd better not expect too much.

Now many (ie noone) people have been sending me emails (hahaha yeah right) about how to make a good quality blog entry. Now as I've stated above this blog is updated after a night of binge drinking. I recommend that you do that. First of all it removes your inhibition. That means you'll actually write stuff and it'll be about things you'd normally keep secret from the world.

Next binge drinking makes you argumentative. So you'll write your blog as a rant. Generally about things you'd normally not argue about and you'd say things you'd normally not say.

Now you'll need an example so here goes.


BLooDy FTA (FKED trad agrement) betwen oz and the FCUKN United Stakes of the USA!!! It sox!!! They get to dump all sorts of CARP!! on our tv's and get to import all dessesed infectered agrucultural stuff in our country and won't let us sell em all our aewsome BEIF AND SUEGAR!!!

FCK THE UUISA AnD ALl THEM Sleves!!!


Now I know I've set the bar pritty high but come on you can do it!

How to Increase Traffic

Basically I'm looking at how to increase my traffic to my weblog. Sure I could spam a whole lot of message boards, news groups and comments sections of sites. The main problem with these is that they can some times backfire with lawsuits. So what I need is a way to increase traffic without any sort of danger of being at the end of lawsuits, violence or threaterning emails...

So here it is. A bunch of sentences that are guaranteed to increase traffic to a site without and risk of harm coming to the owner of the site.

- Mac Sucks without it's power thingy plugged in.
- Britney Spears Naked is an often searched for item and generates lots and lots of hits.
- Janet Jackson works at the moment if you include breast as well.
- Enlarge Your Penis emails are annoying to get.
- Defeat Radar Guns by staying below the speed limit.
- Sex sells just about anything.
- Mp3 Free and Download just work okay.
- Weight Loss is the goal of many obese people.
- Make Money From Home. Get Rich Easy. Multi-level marketing for dummies. Pyramid scams r Us.

There that should do it. All I need now is some sort of banner advertisement that pays me about 0.001ยข per hit and I'll see you all in some sort of list of billionaires.

"I'm in da money. Yeah in da money. I don't know the words and I can not sing in key!" - Me (Don't ask)

Dungeons and Dragons

Maybe they should add a few other d things to the end of that. Maybe Dorks?? Dungeons and Dragons and Dorks?

Ofcourse they could also use something to balance out the whole ugleness of dungeons. Maybe Decorations?

Perhaps Dementia?

Dandriff?

Doodles?

Delicatessens?

Diabetes?

Although there are many d words to choose from perhaps it is best if it is simply left as Dungeons and Dragons. After all doesn't having two ands in a row kinda seem weird?

"Yes" - me (It answers so many questions... except for maybe ones that require a no)

Spam for BoB AKA BoBSpam

I'm not talking about the canned type people. Wait maybe I am. Which is the type of spam that people don't like? Right that was a stupid question.

Anyway the spam that I'm talking about is the kind that gets sent to people from other people. Hmmm. That doesn't seem to help either.

Ok so anyway there is the spam stuff that I have received from some person who shall remain nameless (like the nameless one). This spam is annoying as having to put it in the trash wastes my time. Couldn't the person who sent me this spam have realized that it was just going to be a waste and put it in the trash for me. I mean it's not like it would have required more effort than sending it to me. I guess the costs would be cheaper as well.

Anyway Thank you Mrs E. Afoeke but I feel like doing anything with your spam in order to enjoy it. So I tossed it into the trash.

I know I said they would remain nameless but the nameless one also finds out his name so why shouldn't you?

"You mean you don't have to prepare spam before devouring it?" - me (Alas it was too late. Mrs E. Afoeke's spam was gone...)
