Close Encounters of the Neurotic Kind

So, did anyone else follow along with the Rose Desrochers* saga that started just before the weekend? I just blogged about my experiences with her on Smackdown, wasn't sure if anyone else actually paid attention to the whole thing or not.

*quick attempt to see if my link bombing w/url param actually works, as well as to see if G gives extra weight to wiki articles that aren't linked to from the rest of the site, btw

Lol Mvand, I officially love your blog. I'm also pretty sure you could have started a fight with Gandhi or Mother Theresa given a few minutes to work with.

Oh now wait a minute, I haven't started anything with anyone who didn't give me material to work with first now. It's not like I go looking for these people.

Btw, it's on Sphinn if ya did like it.

It's right before the Bloggingexperiment one (which I haven't read yet, but will soon, promise).

I was thinking of this kind of response....but skitzz said it better than me.

On the other hand....I don't think ole Rose knew who she was tangling with.

Dude, not only do I not LOOK for these people, I try to avoid them but I still end up in more than my share (or so I'm told). You're like a 24 hour version of me at the ballpark You can take that as a good thing or bad thing depending on your opinion of me lol Personally I think it's a compliment but Pops and Timmay say otherwise.

She filed a DMCA complaint against me today, btw, exactly as I suspected she would.

Personally, I'd just not waste the effort of posting about her. Then again, it might help the others, who might wonna yahoo her up later.

"yahoo" her up? Trying to start a trend against using the word "Google" as a verb?

I already posted about her, and if you read the post at the end I mention that I almost didn't, due to how long I knew it would wind up being, and how much information the readers would need to absorb in order to get the full picture (similar to the Rand deal, actually).

One of the reasons I did finish and publish the post is because of her threat to abuse the copyright law. That goes against my own personal beliefs, and is something that I abhor. Had she not done that, she might have won out of my sheer laziness.

Yeah, I am trying to give Yahoo another chance of Googlifying Yahooifying the world.

I did read the post, though it seems to be plenty of effort.
