People of Slog, Greetings

posted by on January 19 at 10:26 AM

Umm. Hi. Hello? Hello. Well! So this is “Slog”! “The” Slog! I’m Slogging! Look at me! SLOGGING! For the very first time ever! How heady! How delightful! How grand! I am now an official Slogger, for indeed I do Slog. Sloggoriffic Sloggified Sloggification. Sloggy. Splendid!

Wait…would that be “Slogg-o-riffic”? Should I be doubling up the “g’s”? Am I working without an editor here? Is someone going to look this shit over?

Fascinating.

Is this thing on? I am doing it right?

So, then! It sure is great to be here. On “Slog”. “Slogging”. And guess what? I get to “Slog” (tee hee hee!) about just about what-the-fuck-ever I-the-fuck want! Isn’t that REMARKABLE? Freedom of speech in action, that’s what that shit is right there. You betcha. If I want to discuss, oh, say, Courtney or Whitney or Paris (not fucking likely) or whatever like I used to in Celebrity I Saw U (remember? Ahh…it all seems so long ago …), I can, but, I mean, I don’t HAVE to. I can so-called “Slog” about almost anything!

Almost ANYTHING!

The price of Chinese food in Milwaukee (cheap!), my daily BMs (cathartic!), the African AIDS baby that I just ordered from the new ‘07 catalog (they’re hotter than iPods!) or even my top-secret plan to assassinate….well. Never mind. (We’ll save that chestnut for later.) You get the idea. ANYTHING! It’s a fresh new day! I am reborn! Unleashed from my paper prison of only-celebrities, free to explore, express, expound, explicate, excrete (mmm…cathartic!), and I have to go think of something to actually say now….

Thank you for your support.

Yay, SLOG!

When you get to the endzone, act like you've been there before.

Just because you can do something - doesn't mean you should do something.

@4 is right.

Looking forward to your posts, Adrian.

I loved last week's sayonara in the print ed, especially the awesome quote from Pope Abortionus the XIII. It's so awesome he gave you an exclusive 1 on 1 ; )

Bush is the most pro-Adrian president we have ever had. America needs to stand strong with Adrian now. The Stranger has gone against conventional Seattle wisdom and been pro-Adrian. Bush is the best American president Adrian has ever known, and many in the Seattle Jewish community appreciate what Bush has done for Adrian.

It's both too gay, and not gay enough, right up to the moment you open the thread and read it.

Welcome Adrian. I remember you when you were just a young thing checking your coat at The Cuff. (I was the matronly coatcheck girl in the trashy outfit.)

*Yawn* Worked as a column. Doesn't work as a blog.

"Double Yawn" Didn't work as a column; REALLY doesn't work as a blog...

the SGN could use a new columnist since they dumped Mark "Mom" Finley...

Such a nice boy. Such a good boy.

Perhaps the time is right to pay sloggy
tribute to my favorite Celebrity I Saw U
columns:

... Ryan Seacrest, for whom the "closet
door" is as gossamer as the misty wings
of sweaty gay butterflies, ...

... Courtney Love, Washington's other
mad cow ...

... Fame is a 12-inch dick. Everybody
wants it, no one deserves it, few ever
get it, and even fewer could withstand
its relentless poundings if they did ...

I expect the next Bartlett's to contain
all three.

When I first read the Courtney Love quote I shit my pants, When I read it again I blew milk out of my nose.
I heart Adrian!

I ♥ Adrian too! And I'm happy to see him on here, but sad he won't be in the print edition anymore. Chchchchanges make me cry. Adrian makes me laugh.
