Of course all the luminaries and erudite readers of his “blog” have weighed in but they all neglect to observe the salient point that Russell Brown reads my blog.

You like me! You really like me!

Ooh. Needy. Does he want a hug?

the shops are never open, and there's nothing to eat but chocolate and stale buns.

Shame on you Craig – update thy knowledge of my beloved Easter suburb! Or at least visit Madam Jo Jo's Foodstore on Remuera Road, open seven days a week, very good coffee, home-made soup, salads,…

The easter suburbs..where's it's always easter. I grew up in the easter suburbs, it's not all feuding..you get wednesdays off. What about the other suburbs?

In the easter suburb I roamed around as a child.We always thought of it as "gone for the weekend " so set out to achieve…

I was getting a weird deja vu feeling about this situation and I just remembered who I was reminded of: L** S*.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought this. Crash and burn, indeed.

I'm still looking for the elusive christmas suburb but having lived a life all over Auckland I'm thinking it's…

In Birmingham they love the governor
Now we all did what we could do
Now Watergate does not bother me…

I think weirdness is an insult to the moderately insane. This behaviour is off the chart nutter stuff. I am of the opinion that most of the posts on that site are fictional.

That possibility occurred to me too.

As for turning up dead. We have to ask these questions especially when you turn on current affairs & see stories about txt bullying causing suicide.

Well, Matthew, I don't regard gossip columnists or the people who read them as people whose character judgements are worth the proverbial rat's rectum. Am…

This smacks of career killer for Saunders I would say she is the one who started the…

I have to admit to contributing to WhaleOil's traffic, just because it's good for a laugh

OK then, you pricked my curiosity.

Site seems to be down though? Perhaps The Hairy Armpit get to it.

plus his site looks like my Grandmother designed it.

That's very funny. But sad. When I want to make my children laugh I tell them I'm going to take a course on 'the actor within' , or web design. I'm not even a grandmother and I know more about sub-atomic…

Perhaps this is the route for content – for Russell to make money fast he needs more mentions of Britney Spears nude videos, stores with New Zealand iPhones still available and the reason Antoine Dixon is being retried.

The example I have often used is this:

As you might expect,…

Charlie Brookers piece in the Grauniad this morning is about how by writing an article that poked the nest of the mad-as-fuck (in this case 911-denial-denial), he substantially boosted the paper's traffic and search engine placings.

Was I the only one who instinctively jumped to close that window when the…

This post by Russell is nothing more than an attempt to avoid blogging about Labour's parlous poll ratings and Winston's nefarious funding activities.

parlous poll ratings? they look better each day, move over willieoil we're comin' through.
Winston's nefarious funding activities.? Whatever.

Sociopathy of some form.

I'm told there's a version of the actual psychopathy diagnosis tool designed for businesspeople and so on rather than criminal offenders.

I also believe there's a personality disorder called "Narcissism".

Perhaps this is the route for content – for Russell to make money fast…

Clearly, you are not apprised of Whaleoil's astonishing foray into the land of the gossip queens

I won't thank you for bringing this into my realm of consciousness! I get more than my quoto of gossip and schadenfreude from unintentional glimpses of the TVNZ "news"!

Its all just a bit…

L** was a troubled young lady who had 15 seconds of fame a few years ago due to her antics on NZ Idol, Craccum magazine and some amateur…

I'm a blogger and I happen to be good at it

How does someone type that with a straight face?

Translation: I'm a dick, and proud of it.

Talking about glorious train wrecks, for once I wish Sean Plunket had gone feral on Winston Peters. While I do try and avoid parlour psychoanalysis

Aw, go on! It's fun.

Purely speculatively, I am not a psychiatrist and neither do I play one on TV yadda yadda, but my money's…

There may be more important things going on but RB posted this on a Sunday. Surely the end of the world isn’t that imminent that we can’t all have a chuckle on a Sunday??

That was my thinking. I've even posted a serious-ish blog this morning ...

BTW, I’m thinking…

Whaleoil spends his time exposing 23yr old young women and attacking Russell for commenting on it because there are (snigger) more important things to do (LOL).

And Shep nails it.

As much as I admire a freak show, surely a guy like that should best be ignored until he goes away.

Oh I dunno. WO seems to be a useful channel for some folks. Similar to the way Wishart is useful.

Am I the only one who, on hearing that the police had arrested an Iraqi man over the Vogel lane apartment stabbings — but could only identify the sex of one of two corpses — thought "fuck me, this is a weird spell we're going through"?

Did anyone…

I question whether you on the other hand have any standards of decency at all.

You brag about the lesbian orgies..."

Truly, Cameron Slater is a man lucky in marriage.

Oh how hugely funny. Russel won't link to my blog but easily links to a radical, lesbian, man hating, christian hating website.

Which I am far from sure is real, actually ...

Really, Russell, you've brought it on yourself. This guy's a dick, nothing more and nothing less, so who cares what he posts on his blog? Just as long as it doesn't seep onto publicaddress. Please, don't contaminate yourself.

I concur. "Never pat a burning dog" springs to mind.

I wonder if this is the Curse of CSI striking again — enormously fun television shows, but I have my doubts that any RW law enforcement agency could afford such surrealistically well-resourced omni-competent staff...

One of the side-effects of CSI in the US has been to dramatically increase the profile…

Wasn't that the theme to Cinderalla, A Knights Tale, & every teenage dream of being accepted by the cool croud & the fear of being found out?

Whaleoil spends his time exposing…

When the shortcomings of she who must not be named were pointed out that is when the lawyers letters started flowing. For a 23yo to start slinging lawyers letters…

I'm assuming this is some former "Big Brother" contestant? A reality TV hostess? A would-be singer whose daddy (or…

And here was me thinking Russell was now a more moderate media spokesperson....silly me.

This post by Russell is nothing more than an attempt to avoid blogging about…

A media7 show on the bottom-dwelling wingnut right-wing bloggers would be entertaining and probably get an audience...

They prolly are the same folk who lack the patience to hold on for the radio talk back thingy,Peter and have recourse to teh interweb.

And any Media7 show on that would be…

Cameron 'Whaleoil' Slater, self-regarding attack dog of the wingnutosphere, has become the confidant of Sunday Star Tmes gossip columnist Bridget Saunders;

Aah, now that'll explain the somewhat baffling and inane comment about a cabinet minister in her column this morning. Slater really is deluded.

"I bet the scumbag actually went and asked for his Mum to die so she could distract everyone from what is abundantly clear to even the most stupid of observers."

A media7 show on…

As long as it is not about the Sensible Sentencing Trust. Who's for setting a Senseless Sentencing Trust?

Just recently an anti-SST group was actually set up, also based in Napier. It's called "True Sensible Sentencing Trust" or some such.

As much as I…

It's just the way that WO is covering it that's alarming. Perhaps…

Yes, the name of the Sensible Sentencing Trust is up there with the Moral Majority... take that, you immoral minority!

Wrong Presenter, it was Carolyn Robinson.

I'll blog about something sensible tomorrow ...

As long as it is not about the Sensible Sentencing Trust. Who's for setting a Senseless Sentencing Trust?

Whaleoil and Co sound like truly AWFUL people and not worth commenting on.

Well, it may be as simple as the position of one of the bodies – and the nature of the crime scene ...

Yeah, I'm sure it's just some procedural thing. It just sounded freaky when I heard the bulletin.

To quote Bill Bryson (on Los Angeles):

I think it's only right that crazy people should have their own city, but I cannot for the life of me see why a sane person would want to go there

Hilary Barry jumping up for the Sencible Sentencing Trust on TV3s recent self promoting ads is a little scary .

"fuck me, this is a weird spell we're going through"?

No, you're not the only one to think that, Russell. People are increasingly fucked up, is my analysis of the world at the moment. I don't know if it's because people were always that way, and our increased access to…

How much time does all his posting etc take up? When does it begin to take over?

I'll blog about something sensible tomorrow ...
