From an email I received a few days ago:
"why the heck are you so popular? what about your site intrigues people to such an extent that it does?"
Honestly, I have no idea. I don't consider myself overly funny, entertaining or interesting. I don't consider myself a real writer. I don't consider myself much, really.
So, why do you people read my weblog?
Comments (45)
1) your drivel is better than most other people's drivel
2) steph thinks you're cool which earns you bonus points
3) fuck if I know; maybe it's all the talk about sex
Because you're so damned cute and irrisistable!
Forceofnature was right with #1, plus you are hilariously brilliant.
I read you because you're one of the first sites I found when I started Xanga and your writing is intelligent and enjoyable. You have wit, my friend. Plus, I don't have to decipher what you're saying from stuff like, "sO i WaZ WKKIN oN mY **M@dD skILLz** $$ aNN dIs ^AZN^ cHIkkA iz @LL sNoGgIn oN ma hoMEEE An i wAZ lIKe %HEEEEY!!?%"
I read it for the sex.

*ahem*
I mean, I read it because I am intrigued by you.
It's 'cause you have hammerhead sharks on your boxer shorts.
That's all.
it's the honesty, plain and simple.
If I told you, I'd have to kill you.
because i like coffee & sleep in the nude too?
shall we start a blogring?
I don't remember how i found your weblog, but you intrigued me right off the bat. Your layout was cool as hell, and popped out at me, but at the same time your content has always been exciting. You're expressive and honest.
And you're not an annoying teenybopper; music snob; wanna be gangster; or any of the other random and annoying "Xanga types" that are out there.

Q: "So why do you people read my weblog?"
A: I dunno... because you're on my SIR?
seriously, Rich? way too many reasons to go into... simply put-- I guess I read you just because it pleases me to do so.
Two words: CASH MONEY
That's a good question...don't know really couldn't give you a real specific answer...though all I can say is that the feeling you have with your writing sorta leaks alittle to alot of your personality and yeah I guess I just appreciate such...if not to look to

Sex and honesty
i ask myself this question time and time again about why people like my site and i have no idea ...
is it we are really so arrogant or do we simply not have a clue honestly??
something to think about i guess ...
I just read the articles. Really. I don't even look at the pics.
I feel there's something very real here. I like that.
because you make me so hot, tricky dick

you're honest? your perception of things is a lot more intriguing than most people's. you can write, and your site looks cool! lol. I think people read your site because of that unknown quality... whatever it is, keep doing it!
I think your site design is quite frankly, damn good..and actually, I think your father's day entry was probably one the best things I've ever read...period.
the cat is cute too...even though I'm not a cat person per se...
because:
1 you sometimes make references to good music?
2 your posts are consistently funny or intelligent?
3 i still can't get "two meatballs in a tubesock" out of my head?
It's all the bare naked schematics of doo-hickies and whirly gigs you have on your site. You know I'm a technology whore!
obviously all a ploy to get into your pants.
Because you are real.
Simple. I'm secretly in love with you. Plus, all the free coupons are great.
1. because i can
2. because it's good to know i'm not the only crazy one out there lol
... are you even gona read all these comments? ... that's a lot of comments to read ...
dude, do you really everyone to know our secret?
because your blog kicks fucking ass
I don't know. You're just...interesting. Some people just have a way about them. It's your charisma, kiddo.
Because you're witty and hawt. Haha, but seriously... you're just that cool.
you write coherently.
you're mildly amusing, when not greatly amusing.
kuuuuute kitty!!! ((pix from previous entry)) pRopZ.
<3, *dAiSy*
You're hot.
i tink u're quite interesting. and you seem like an awesome person. and like the ppl who left comments bedfore you.
you're cool, realistic, funny, brilliant and the sex.
honesty.
You *do* know you have been rotating as "Premium Content" on the xanga home page, don't you? It's simply that old real estate chesnut: location, location, location.
Because. You're like an onin. You know. Layers
Damnit. I really should proofread.
See? I did it this time. hehe.
And props to anyone who gets that reference!
i definitely started reading your entries long before i saw what your gorgeous face
....they're witty, intellectual, and unadorned.
....they're simply slices of your life offered for your readers' palate in an note-worthy manner.
....not to mention your web design kicks ass!!
....and yes! you're hot
coz ur on Spotlight and people click on it knowing that at least some of the stuff there is remotely interesting? You are interesting.
coz you're on spotlight and everyone on spotlight is at least a little bit interesting?
Actually, I am not sure why I read your site. I don't come here very often, but when I do, you either have a funky new skin or something you write makes me think. Also, I like reading other people's comments here.
I'm not sure I could handle all the attention your blog gets. I'm happy to stay in an obscure corner by myself.
I'll be back some other time. Take care.
I agree with one of each; besides, I liked the cat pictures.
You are featured in some of my randiest dreams...how could I not read you?
Seriously? I genuinely enjoy your way with words. My apologies for my sparse commentary, though. I'm generally wandering through just before bed (hence, the dreams) and am just a few brain cells away from a catatonic state.
Um...like now.

Because it's better than mine!
i think people start to comment because they see about 49874 comments ahead of them.. sort of like a chain reaction. however you do have those who are innocently intrigued. you remind me of this girl.. http://www.xanga.com/mermaid_in_jeans
