"I'm Feeling Derisive"

One of my favorite online pastimes is Blogger's "Next Blog" button. Try getting lost in its tunnelwork of endless possibilities, if you haven't already (but not now -- read what I have to say, first). I have a special appreciation for the thing because I don't know how else most people can happen upon my own blog. For me, the Next Blog button has proven such an addictive diversion, in fact, that I've invented a game for it.

Pretty simple, really. As you click away at the button, see how long it takes you to discover at least one blog of each category:

-The Conspiracy Theorist blog

-The Born-again Christian Gotta-Spread-The-Word blog

-Porn

-The Lonely American Travel blog

-The 14-year-old Girl "I dont giv a fuck" blog

-The Mommy blog

-The Break-up blog

-The Look At This Funny Shit on YouTube Compilation blog

You may race against a friend, perhaps emailing noteworthy links to each other in the process. And by no means is the above list inflexible: add your own categories if you like, or shorten the list for a lightning round.

Hints and Tips:

1. You should enjoy an advantage with the Next Blog button if you are proficient in an Asian language or Portuguese.

2. Appearances can be deceiving, so don't get careless. Just because a blog is entitled "Truth Lives" doesn't mean it isn't a blog solely devoted to defending Clay Aiken. Because one time (I swear to God) it was.

3. The Next Blog function appears to draw from a set group of blogs within a period of time, so don't be dismayed if you encounter the same blog twice or more. Keep soldiering on.

Happy Hunting!
