Visit Slightly Amusing, the Web site of Brad Simanek. He’s a contributor to Top 5 stuff and is worthy of a chuckle or two.

…is now chronicled at Pop-Up Mocker.

Instead of having a life, I have blogged a pile already tonight and I have updated Pop-Up Mocker.

More value for your blog-reading dollar. Can I have that dollar? A couple more and I could buy a Guinness.

Step 1: Collect undershirts.

Step 3: Profit!

Anyone posting on the Internet bemoaning his or her absolute poverty should be properly mocked; that is to say, incessantly and loudly.

Thank you, that is all.

Attention, IMAO judges:

Remember, if Heather wins the IMAO T-Shirt Babe contest, there will be plenty of celebratory Guinness to go around.

Remember to vote as though a Daley sent you.

Thank you, that is all.

They forgot the J, but that’s okay.

So you better all straighten up, or I am telling Taranto.

I’ve updated the Pop-Up Mocker site.

Go look at it at least once. Someone’s gotta.

Spoons has come clean and has admitted:

For some reason which is quite unfathomable to me, certain sections of the blogosphere are all abuzz over the question of whether coed blogger, “Hot Abercrombie Chick,” might really be a a dude.

I’m not sure why this really matters,, but since it apparently does to some people, I feel I owe my readers a confession. I’m not actually a 32-year-old cranky male lawyer in central Illinois. I’m actually a 65-year-old widow and retired plus-size lingerie model from Butte, Montana.

And my supposed wife “Laura” is actually just a raccoon that I sometimes see in my backyard. I think she’s trying to steal the birdseed I put out.

As a matter of full disclosure, I must too explain the source of the text you see here.
