------------------------------

Your Name: xxxxxx Mxxxxxx
Your Email:
Subject: Remove my name from your site

Message: I have been told that my name is listed as someone who "likes" this website. It must be an error and I would like it removed.

I do not want to be associated with people who think that using language like that on a social chat site is okay - guess you don't know how easy it is for children of all ages to get onto the site and then think that adults think it's okay to use language that is not used at home but can be used for everyone to see.

It's sad that you all think this is permissable but I think you don't have an intelligent vocabulary.

Remove my name please - immediately.

Thank you.

WOW, WOW, WOW, OH WOOOOOOW.

Ok, let's break this shit down:

• What in the MOTHER FUCK is a "social chat site?" Cause whatever the fuck a social chat site is, FIPS ain't one of em. Nobody "chats" around here...its pretty much all yelling, all the time.
• I say fuck both at home AND not at home. Do you only say it when you're not at home? So for ex. it's ok to say fuck at the grocery store, but not when you're watching an ep of The Hills?? Cause that shit is BANANAS.
• Who is "telling you" that your "name is listed as someone who likes" our site? Was it a voice in your head? I'm guessing you're getting an eensy weensy bit confused with THE INTERNET and FACEBOOK. Facebook is a place you go to like or not like all sorts of things, and FIPS is a place you to go to NOT like everything. Get it?

Please come back and read this post and comment, oh crazy wo/man. It would make me oh so happy!

Park Slope Parents and "The Free Willie Nelson" Mobile

Just when it was eroding fast, my faith in the awesomeness of Park Slope was restored this morning. I love that The Free Willie Nelson is parked on 8th avenue, almost as much as I love Erica for posting those ginormous man boobs below. 

Gives me hope on a day I woke up to the news that my Park Slope Parents nemesees (?) nemesises? WHATEV...  that Nancy, "parenting guru/moderator," and her humorless cronies are starting a Park Slope Parents blog. God bless 'em. 

Louise rolled out the welcome mat over at OTBKB, even offering a tray of daiquiris. God knows, they could use a few drinks over there.

Design Blahg: Can You Dig It?

Ok, so ta da! I started another blog!

It's right here and it's called Design Blahg. I'm trying to bring the FIPS snark and attitude to the world of Interior Design. Will it work? Who the fuck knows, but I'm tryin.

If you bitches felt like hopping on over there and throwing down a comment or two so it doesn't look like a ghost town, that would rock.

Of course, I still love you long time and FIPS isn't going anywhere (duh).

Who Gives A Shit: Do You Blog?

So Brooklyn Based, Brokelyn and I had our very first #bkblogs event last night, and I gotta say: shit was pretty off the friggin hook!

Hundreds of BK's best, brightest and bloggiest descended on the Bell House to network, get drunk, eat Lobster rolls from the Red Hook Lobster Pound, cupcakes from Robicelli's, and rock out with their co...oh, never mind.

Anyway.

Here's just *some* of what went down:

• @MikeTRose from TUAW brought his iPad and had a sea of Apple groupies gathered around him all night (NICE move dude!).
• @stfuparents, @karynmurph @saveassistants and I all formed a band: 4-non Preggers.
• Dorothy from @Jauntsetter came up with this killer idea for an Italian club! (let's do it!).
• @theambershow figured out that a @robicellis cupcake is only 5 points by plugging in all of the ingredients to our WW iPhone app (YESSSSS!).
• @hipgirls chatted everyone up, despite the fact that she had a deadline tomorrow morn...FOR HER UPCOMING BOOK (yay!).
• @DimaM came out of the closet as FOREIGN DUDE (i.e. the writer of the FIPS post that got this whole Gorilla Coffee coverage started)
• @robertgorrell made me laugh my ass off, as per U.
• @theskint did not hang out in any dark corners of the room.
• @ninedaves pitched me a killer idea for a new FIPS column (coming soon to a blog near you THIS BLOG).
• I met the dude from @levysuniqueny and decided we need to set up a FIPS tour pronto!
• @amyblogschow rolled through and gave me a "drive by hug."
• Met some old and new outside.in friends (INSIDE).

So yeah: I met sooo many killer new bloggin peeps (though I *still* didn't meet enough of your asses!) and generally just had a blast. But more than that, I think we totally confirmed that: Yes, Brooklyn *is* the bloggiest borough.

I'd def like to start doing these meetups on the regular, so stay tuned for more scoop about the next one!

So our question(s) for you today is(are): Do you blog? If so, why? And how? And is it worth it? And do you enjoy it? And would you recommend it to others?

Fuck all that anon privacy shit today...link us to your blog loudly and proudly below so that we can see what we're dealing with here (and get your ass some CLICKS)!

Babies With Laser Eyes

Yep. There's a whole friggin blog about em.

That is all.
