“I still wouldn’t pick up a dollar off the ground in front of you though. ”

Bwa ha ha ha. Who says that? You’re like the dude who flipped on me in the septa station for bumping into him saying “you’ve met your match”. I just shake my head and move along. Y’all are so in your heads about what other people are or could be doing.

“jburnside I think said he at least works in Philadelphia, but takes some sort of 100 mph blackwater escorted armored caravan to get to his office and back.”

Blackwater turned me down. Too dangerous

http://blog.52ndcity.com/ maybe? But, you know, without much snark. Or regular content. Or ads (but only because they don’t have any takers apparently). But that’s probably good, since you’re talking about sending a horde of malnourished, pale, northeastern hipsters out to war in the hale and hearty midwest. Probably oughtta start small and work your way up.

@C. The Impaler: Well, let’s see the Riverfront Times = Philly Weekly, Pageant = TLA, vanishingstl.blogspot.com = phillyskyline, … I’m having trouble finding a philebrity analogy, though. Smirking auto-fandom isn’t really something the midwest does.

gr, but finding the St. Louis equivalent of Philebrity and going to war with it would be FUN. My character in Urban Dead has pretty much played all options for intrigue so I’m bored now.

This is the price you pay for talking liberal and having an RSS feed. Somewhere rightwingnuts will redirect traffic your way. No, they haven’t got the least bit of interest in our city, but the Internet isn’t run by a neighborhood association, so we’re stuck with actual ignoring the jerks rather than pointing out that they’re not actually in Fishtown/Northern Liberties/whatever.

@C. The Impaler: Easy now, I grew in St. Louis. It has many similarities to Philly, including being mostly liberal, having a deathtrap across the river to the east, and being one bookend (MO’s other is Kansas City, sorta) of urbanity on around a state that appears… rather less enlightened. So that dude doesn’t live in STL, just far enough east not to be a Royals fan. (I actually knew where that picture was taken when it first appeared–and cringed, and I think it’s a western STL exurb like St. Peters or St. Charles. Think whatever the hell that is on the other side of West Chester.)

Philebritors,
I’m with you on all of this, even though I have been known to enjoy quizzo from time to time.

Maybe these folks couldn’t log on at PhillyBlog or something.

I don’t think this stuff is much compared to the Capitol Years weak effort to spin their getting pwned by an amputee “crazy lady” and the fallout from that.

Is your pic saying these people are from St. Louis? Can Philebrity go to war with its St. Louis counterpart? That may be more fun than making fun of the Capitol Years….
