The Irony of Otherness

The irony of this webpage

The real irony of this webpage ehem, BLOG...you know, it sounds like someone with an awful cold trying to say frog...but to proceed. The real irony of this webpage is that it shouldn't even exist. Here I was, extending myself towards the Other, like a good Levinas-alcolyte, just trying to post a semi-witty response (which I've now forgotten) to someone elses frog, and I was made to become the Other myself, by subjecting myself to Blogdom. I wonder if I have to grow webbing between my toes. It'd be awfully inconvenient, after all, I DO lack the appropriate genes (or at least they're comfortably inactive!) and with Bush in office, it'd be difficult to gain the genetic material from an outside source...but I'm rambling. Welcome to my blog, an accident of History (Hegel would be proud!) but here to stay, I suppose ^_^*

  • Accolyte?
    I didn't have to make a blog. I agree it is a dumb name, but progress upon a pennyfarthing beckons.

  • I see you haven't updated your "B-Log". Maybe it should be spelled "b'log" or something. yeah, I like b'log so much it doesn't even need quotes! B'log, b'log, b'log. Hm!

    How about the freakin' Gaming Commission giving the underworld killer guy a renewal!!!
