Was It Something I said?

I have been blogging for almost a year. I intended my blog to be a spot for my baseball buddies to come to and talk a little trash, make trade offers, and keep in touch. That was quickly nuked by MSN because none of my buddies use MSN. I had no idea none of my friends could comment. Doy!

So I went out and made some friends in the MSN world! MSN Premium was part of my DSL package and I was going to use it, damn it! I have almost gotten over that attitude. I am thinking about just posting on my Blogger page, at least everyone can comment there.

I found the best way to make friends was to comment on the pages that I would visit. I really enjoy leaving comments! I like it as much as I do posting entries.

I never bag on another person’s blog, but I can be kind of a smart ass or just gross. About a week ago I left a comment on a ladies blog that may have been shocking for someone who doesn’t know me, but I couldn’t stop my fingers from typing. This woman was talking about birthday ideas for her husband and that a Maglite flashlight was a good gift one year. She described it like this, “It's black, heavy, masculine, totally impractical, in short it's perfect." What I really wanted to say was that it sounded like a birthday gift to her, but I toned it down to just, “I won’t comment on "It's black, heavy, masculine, totally impractical, in short it's perfect." I’ll just leave that to people who know you better. I even included a smiley. J No Response. I almost always get a reply. Did I piss her off? I hope not. Doesn’t everyone know that Malathionman is the master of snappy comments?

So what is good blog etiquette? If someone leaves you a comment, is leaving a comment on his or her blog the proper thing to do? A lot of people just comment on comments in the comment section. Is that how it is done?

What about music? If someone has a music player, do you play it? Is it annoying when the music plays automatically? I really like music, am I rude to make you listen to what I like?

And what about those snappy comments? Is there a comment “courting time” before you can make an indirect adult toy reference?

	tressiewrote: What a crack up! funny funny - in my book, once the friends button is clicked, all rules are off - you may start the naughty talk - heck, i have at least 3 blogs that mention p*nis or similar word (i edited that for your non-adult comment readers) Don't go to blogger - i promise - in the same time, more or less, i have had a blog there and one here, yes the comments can be made by ANYONE, however, the comments are a pain in the tush to make. I get a comment a week there and hardly any hits - same content. We just need to barrage MSN with requests and maybe even a picket line DEMANDING comments by any and all who want to comment. Love your space - it is a hoot. ttfn ~ tressie 2 Mar.

The nipple comment on skurmish's blog had me rolling. Hopefully they didn't but if you think they did just apologize and be graceful. You are a dreamgirl after all, you know how to be graceful, right? 16 Feb.

	Guineverewrote: I myself have wondered the same thing about commenting on comments. What's the best way to do that? And where? Maybe we'll both be enlightened, Tom! lol 16 Feb.
