4 things that annoy me as a blogger
December 24, 2008 by evl
Rss feeds
I hate it when people use my rss feed. Seriously, you want to read my stuff then come to my site. I cant stand it when sites and bloggers tell how many Rss subscribers they have. I bet you not even 1% of people that are subscribed to a site actually come and visit the site.
Although I hate it when people read my rss feed on a reader I still like reading other sites on readers. I know, my right to be annoying.
Leaving url in comment
Sometimes I am amazed at people. The comment section clearly states url. Now that means you dont have to repeat your url in the actual comment, it saves you time and effort. But no, you get these annoying people that fill in a comment and then put their urls under what they've written. Maybe someone should make a comment how-to to explain how the thing works.
Telling people where you've not been before
I have done exactly this for some time until I realized how stupid I must of sound to those that really has been there and know what they are talking about. Although I now have the experience, i also blogged about how to make money before I actually made money.
its like fooling people into believing you make money to make money from them.
Link exchange
I get these really annoying emails asking for link exchange. Here's a tip. Link your one page to your other page. There you have a link. Happy now?
One thing windows needs, remind me later
December 7, 2008 by evl
As a windows user I got really annoyed with the constant popping up of junk that wanted to update. But since using Mac I have gotten used to the "remind me later" function that most programs give you. I find that quite anti annoying if there is such a word.
I still prefer GPL linux above Mac though.

Disaster Ivy, also known as poison Ivy
November 22, 2008 by evl
This single woman is the reason I am going to have to pay R1000 a month for 10gig 1mb bandwidth. That's more than $100 for probably the worst internet in the world. The cause of this mass miscommunication is this woman you see in the picture. The communications minster old dinosaur Ivy has probably never even used the internet before and guess what. She makes the rules. Why must a entire country suffer because of one woman's failure to do her job properly. But as a citizen and a blogger I am going to start a campaign to stop this woman. I might fail but at least I am not a failure like the internet we have here in South Africa.
Frankly I am very very annoyed.
How can one person make a difference? I actually dont know but I am going to find out.
Role Models - Movie Trailer and Exclusive clip
November 15, 2008 by Daizy
This movie, Role Models, looks hilarious. It probably will have some sappy good feel parts in it but mostly it looks funny. Now I don't particularly like the type film with kids involved, there is just something annoying about watching kids on screen. But these two doesn't seem so annoying to watch. The movie is about these two sales reps, Danny and Wheeler, who mess up badly and they get two choices go to jail for 30days or community service. So they get sent to a organization that gets role models for children. The thing is these two Danny played by Paul Rudd, is an guy who just can't grow up. He gets placed with a sixteen year old boy named Augie, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, who is a complete and utter geek. Wheeler played by Seann William Scott, is the last type of guy you would want as a role model for your kids gets placed with a foul mouthed little boy Ronnie played by Bobb'e J. Thompson. So the plot is pretty much obvious, wonder if I'll be surprised at the end. This movie is definitely just for laughs even though it has a good message attached, if you are in search of something that would make you think, this is not it.
Why the blogging niche sucked when I started blogging
October 29, 2008 by evl
I could not think of another title. But the fact is that the blogging niche still sucks today. Yes, i know not everyone sucks, especially some of the sites I visit regularly but what I am talking about is in general. If you look closely and you join most sites that blog about making money or blogging you will notice that when something goes hot, everyone blogs about it.What kind of crap is that BBC?
October 26, 2008 by evl
Watching BBC there is this annoying advert coming up all the freaking time. Blabbering on about "how about a murder or two"
I think we have enough crime in South Africa, we dont need dumb ads like that on our tv. I might sound like one of those old people now complaining about everything but really, we dont need that kind of crap here.
Why suck up bloggers suck
October 22, 2008 by evl
Often i find myself stumbling upon a really crap article. One where i can clearly see it was only stumbled or bookmarked for the sake of sucking up to the blogger and it was made by someone that wants to get recognition or wants to let the blogger know they exist. These pages are annoying.
If you want someone to notice you or some blogger to know you are there, use their contact page. Email them or something but stop bookmarking and submitting sites to stumbleupon because you want to suck up to the "blogger". Its annoying.
Flash Game - Loops of Zen

A very addictive game where you have to make the circles complete. Remember to push M to mute the sound if it annoys you. Remember to stumble this :)Thanko Magnetic Earphones
October 5, 2008 by evl
Annoyed with the earplugs feeling like a drill in your ear? Well you should get these earphones. These magnetic earphones are totally unearbreakable, i know there is no such word but who cares.
The magnetic earphone has a soft magnetic strip that is attached to the ear lobe and the earphone is directly above that.
