... But all of this is just foolish froth - ACL is THE Professional Blogger. Because it's not his profession. And he makes a nice living.

- I also really rate the proudly amateur bloggers - The hobbyists with passion.

... But the pretend 'Professional' ?

Nah.

What do you all think ?

Best -

Jim.

Bravo to the amateurs who really care about their topics and put effort in, even though many of them are sell-outs or desperately want to be. Looking back, it's beyond me how anyone imagined in the early days they could ever make living money via a blog or personal rant webpage, but I guess hindsight is 20/20. Soon the whole internet will be pay-as-you-go on a level we're not used to now, and then the small timers who provide the most interesting content will vanish and users will slowly disappear and the internet will become nothing more than a giant Yellow Pages.

Not my blog BIG Tony. The big players in my town are going to hate my guts because l am going to tell the honest truth about their shoos, the only person l will protect alittle is the last maker, only because he is a nice bloke and the last left in the industry and needs to be supported. lf people offer me money to put up advertisements on my site, l will in no uncertain terms tell them to F*CK OFF because l HATE advertisements....loathe them more than almost anything else on Earth because it goes against everything l believe in. l haven't seen a t.v ad in over 20 years, l have rarely seen a youtube or photobucket add (l turn down the volume and look away because you never know what subliminal messages are being sent through electronic media these days), and l turn down the radio whenever there is an ad (subliminal messages). l have only been open to print advertisements because l have more control over what l view, but l still need to be careful of hidden symbolism.

p.s: it won't be all doom and gloom on my site, it will be a properly balanced review of the shoos. lt will be a positive site, but it won't pretend for something to be what it is not.

I think Big Tony is right, the internet will end up so saturated, so totally fucked-up to the brim of unreliable ego vision questers lusting for fame and fortune that no one will use it for anything other than viewing porn or purchasing from Brooks Brothers. We should welcome this and get back to face-to-face communication and digging music on vinyl.

I would consider it a matter of honour that Chensvold backs his claim of professional status, with actual evidence of business revenue from this portion of his media empire.

Taylor McIntyre · 2012-02-24 09:40:04

Or maybe even just behaved like a professional ?

He's very easily sucked into invented squabbles by trolls...

Let's face it: He's an amateur with a few ads on his blog. He lives from hand to mouth.

He's Poor White iTrash when compared to the real professionals &, my faves, the inspired hobbyists.

Gil. I must thank you for your sensitivity and consideration, perhaps even professionalism, in the matter of my Muffy fetish.

I must say I have struggled with the demons and had, to a large extent, given up. However your kind words have rekindled my hopes of success. I note the form of your words seems to indicate active assistant from yourself, and even others. I do worry however that assistance from Big Tony may be more crude than I would wish.

Might I ask if Muffy has in fact been in touch with you through back channels and if she has, has she mentioned me?

Big Tony · 2012-02-24 11:33:14

If Muffy were willing to be contacted through her back channel, then I might change my mind about her.

Film Noir Buff · 2012-02-24 11:58:54

Who is this Muffy?

Phew, I thought you might have linked FNB to the infamous photo of Muffy in her pyjamas. I've just got through extensive post-dramatic stress disorder therapy to erase that wholesome image of New England gentile womanhood from my mind.

The_Shooman · 2012-02-25 01:48:48

Blogs, just like government, are a reflection of the people who live in our society. We reap what we are. People say the blog hogs are money influenced, but aren't most people in modern societies influenced by the exact same things. That's why l say it really is a reflexion on who we are ourselves.

Feeling very philosophical today.

Big Tony · 2012-02-25 07:10:25

FXH - do you spend your evenings wanking to that photo? muffy in her pjs and scrawny man-feet, no muff showing? too many interior decorating and needlework books on the wall? rug that was last cleaned in 1983? wooden furniture pressed up against baseboard heaters?

The hammer, I assume, is to defend oneself from the ladies.

Going back to the infamous Dandy professional blogger, I notice he is now linking this fetish spandex emporium to his website:
