Bogus Blog
Hmmm...I think I've stumbled across a blog that's not exactly honest. I've read a number of their entries, and everything seems a little too perfect to be believed; it's almost like a fantasy in the writer's head of what he wants his life to be like. I don't have any real proof, but I have fabulous intuition with a slight dose of cautious paranoia. Trust no one!
I won't mention who it is; I wouldn't want to embarrass them, or myself, if I'm wrong (which I never am). But I think a few people know who I am referring to.
I've heard about fake blogs before. There was a very public spat earlier this year surrounding a certain blog, but it didn't mean much to me cuz I never read it, and then there was the whole lonelygirl15 debacle.
I guess it doesn't really matter; after all, it's only a blahg. And if the readers enjoy the writing, who cares. But I do feel bad for people who get caught up in the stories and post comments, only to realize the shit ain't real.
I'll keep checking it out from time to time, cuz it's amusing and sad, kinda like "Flavor of Love 2". But I won't take it seriously until I read about an event they attended that can be verified by other people, or at least, a few photos of themselves or their friends.
I may be fake, but at least my blog is real.

I can't believe you would call me out like this, TJ. You're just jealous of my Jaguar, mansion, 30 inch waist and hot model boyfriend! If I wasn't in Paris right now recording my newest hit cd I would fly to DC and kick your ass!

I usually need proof bloggers are real- in the form of hot, naked pictures of the blogger standing in front of their computer screen looking at my blog.

I've always had suspicions about Shades of Gray. Always kinda sounded like the guy was writing for a gay soap opera.
