6 Random Takeaways From Blog World Expo LA 2011

Inside Jokes at Blog World Make You Want to Stab Yourself In The Eye


Nothing less funny then being in a conversation with a group of people that constantly drop inside jokes. Everyone laughs while you just sit there and fake chuckle looking like a douche having no clue whats going on. Well imagine a room filled with thousands of people and the guy on stage does the same shit. You’d want to go up there and punch him in his dick right? Welcome to Blog World, this happened at least once every presentation. And it was definitely a guy thing. How many inside jokes do we need to hear about the shittyness of Google Plus? We get the point. Only thing less funny about inside jokes are inside jokes about fuckin social media.

What the Hell Was Cheech Doing at Blog World?



Obviously he was trying to promote something but it just seemed random as hell. Your walking around the expo room and then all of the sudden you come to this group of people surrounding this area talking pictures and you notice its Cheech. People were flocking all around him like he was Justin Bieber. Relax. Dude made movies about getting high. I don’t think hes going to shed any light on how you can bring more traffic to your website or improve your Klout score.

Rick Fox is a Media Whore


So my inside sources at blog world (yes I had inside sources. I networked like a muthafucker at this thing) told me that some of the speakers originally planned canceled last minute. So you’re in LA and you need someone to get on stage who do you call? Rick Fox. What the fuck does Rick Fox have to do with blog world? Who knows. It’s just comical that this guy would pop in last minute to get on stage and talk about himself. Not to mention majority of people there had no idea he even existed before the Lakers. From Celtics 6th man to the toast of Hollywood. Dam you Rick Fox, you good lookin son of a bitch. The next interview you turn down will be your first.

Q and A Sessions At Blog World Are Painful to listen Too



Can’t tell you how many times some douche would come up to the microphone and ask a 2 minute long question that no one in the room knew what he was talking about. Every asshole that got to the mic also had to give a shameless plug to their website. Get to the point bro. I didn’t pay $800 to sit here so you could listen to yourself talk.

The Women of Blog World Were Drop Dead Gorgeous


You literally could have just walked around and checked out the eye candy and gotten your money’s worth. Not sure if it was a California thing but some of these women looked like they should be in Maxim. I debated back and forth on whether or not I should just drop everything I was doing and creep on chicks all day, which would have included stalking iJustine. Do you want to sit in an hour long presentation about how to get more likes on your shitty Facebook page or do you want to sit and chat with smokeshows from the OC? Geeze, tough choice here. I mean that Facebook page isn’t going to like it’s self.

LA Fans Are Soft as Puppy Shit



How come nobody beat my ass for talking this picture? I literally stood there for a minute taking about 3 pictures holding this exact pose. People just walked on by like it was normal. If someone in Boston decided to pull this shit in front of the Bobby Orr Statue, a sniper would pick them off from a roof and then Massholes would stomp them out reminiscent of a scene from Grand Theft Auto. Toughen the fuck up LA. Show some self respect.
