Blogspam
I've been noticing some interesting shifts in Casey's traffic:
IAFF VISITS
Total 1,604,158
Average Per Day 16,166
Average Visit Length 1:27
IAFF PAGE VIEWS
Total 3,616,964
Average Per Day 32,813
Average Per Visit 2.0
Just like everything else Casey has finally hooked up with someone who's figgured out a way to game the system. Before he had traffic most sites would envy. Then he failed to act on the opportunity. finally, rather than do the real work to make things right he scams to get what he wants. His visit length didn't suddenly shoot up nor did his page views per visit. Looks like the virtual assistants are working overtime.

«Oldest ‹Older 601 – 626 of 626600 and MURST!!!
Sorry Donkey... you got 600..
and I am now the proud owner of a 500 & MURST AND a 600 & MURST.
$1000/month to live in Australia. Last I saw, Casey was looking for someone to mooch off.
Course he just made $1100 so he thinks he can live off it. Galina gets a promise for the next $1000. Which she will get unless something comes up (like the next $1000 actually being raised)
Damn you JVJ
@flailing
"Don't hate me because I'm miserable..."
Well, my test case seems to have wrapped up.. gotta check the results.. darn W-2 job that pays for my apartment, car, food, clothes, cable, internet, 2 computers, utilities, gas, insurance, DVDs, ReplayTV, cell phone, and a trip to Europe this fall. Yup Casey: I'm a looser.
BTW, I second the call for a new thread.. not that I would mind a 700 & MURST!
Finger not liking these 600 plus posts.
Yes. New thread, please. Oh and some cobbler. I like strawberry rubarb.
meant rhubarb, of course
It could be done - it would'nt be comfortable by any means, but it could be done.
Or, as Groucho and Chico Marx put it in A Night at the Opera:
Otis B. Driftwood (Groucho Marx): Could he sail tomorrow?
Fiorello (Chico Marx): You pay him enough money, he could sail yesterday. How much you pay him?
Driftwood: Well, I don't know...(muttering to himself) let's see, a thousand dollars a night...I'm entitled to a small profit...how about ten dollars a night?
Fiorello: Ten? Ten dolla- ha ha ha ha ha! I'll take it...
Driftwood: All right, but remember, I get 10% for negotiating the deal.
Fiorello: Yes, and I get 10% for being the manager. How much does that leave him?
Driftwood: That leaves him - uh, $8.00.
Fiorello: Eight dollars, huh? Well, he sends a five dollars home to his mother...
Driftwood: Well, that leaves him $3.00.
Fiorello: Can he live in New York on $3.00?
Driftwood: Like a prince. Of course he won't be able to eat, but he can live like a prince.
*pouts* Fucking RealPlayer! Dammit, why can't my beloved BBC be more Linux-friendly! Miguel, I''m looking forward to your Chuck Norris-like transcription skillz bearing fruit later in the day. In fact, I'm counting on it.
That said, I echo the cry for a new thread! Dawg, can we get you to oblige?
So this was Rob's diabolical plan all along, to drive off the trolls!.
All over the country, overweight, hygeine-challenged geeks are rubbing their mouse-wheel fingers in pain, cursing the never-ending thread that mocks them and attracts them like an eery blue bug light. Must post...must attack..must show how much I am afraid of women...gasp...*plonk* hundreds of greasy haired heads collapse in a spray of Cheesy Poof power and Mountain Dew.
The night is full of the soft low drone of snoring trolls, occasionaly disturbed by the nosier thumb suckers in their midst. But like a spring breeze, the irritation fades like ripples in a still pool, and the night time slumber continues, and dreams of geek-chasing super models and jobs that pay millions to act like an anti-social slob online play out.
We're in the presence of a True Master.
Casey versus my brother-in-law (BIL)
Casey, sleep on people couches and never leaves. So does BIL
Casey, eats all your food. So does BIL.
Casey, claims to have a wife, but stays as far away from her as possible. Same as BIL.
Casey, won't get a job and has poor grooming habits. Same as BIL.
I think there is a good chance Casey IS my brother in law.
Casey should write his own posts again
Casey should write his own posts again! The new posting style is obviously not his. His posts have always been content free, but now they are annoyingly formatted as well. Why can't he write his own posts again!
Sub-headings are annoying
The constant use of subheadings is driving me crazy! You could cut out a two-thirds of the post by simply removing the subheaders and repetition of opening statements. These subheaders are driving me crazy!
Reading IAFF is like being trapped in Marty's brain
Whenever I read I feel like I'm trapped in Marty's brain! Every post is exactly the same! If there was any sort of variation between them it wouldn't be so bad. All his other pages are the same way. I'm trapped inside his brain!
Too many exclamations
Nearly every sentence ends with an exclamation! There's no need to shout, Marty! If there were some way to make the snooze inducing content flow better, maybe there wouldn't be so much shouting. Why so many exclamations!?
"Why so many exclamations!?"
Because the IAFF is now content free!

Does this mean Casey owes income tax in Australia, too?
@mejustme: Paying income taxes in Australia is optional, and if you don't, it's no big deal--sort of like speeding, or lying on a mortgage application, or driving in a foreign country without a license, or overstaying your visa, I mean, everyone does it, so it's not a big deal.
Great interview on BBC. Thanks for the link.
Gotta love the music between sentences.
Could have used MONEY by Pink Floyd at begining when Snowflake was talking about getting rich like those folks on late night infomericals.
That's why i said that everything on IAFF now is an ad for the book. Consider it fiction, as clumsy and poorly written and scripted as it is.
There is one bright spot - Marty can milk the "comeback" for a long time, considering the odds Casey is fighting. Heh.
The only things that spin more than Casey are the girls at a Greatful Dead show.
Hey Big Dawg,
I am pounding my spoon and fork on the table as I chant!
NEW POST!
NEW POST!
NEW POST!
PLEASE!
Can't get my morning started without you!
@Mouse And Pencil
You are a pure joy to read.
If you're using Linux and can't listen to the BBC show, install mplayer and do this:
mplayer -quiet -playlist http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/aod/shows/rpms/radio4/jonronsonon.rpm -ao pcm:file=jonronsonon.wav -vc dummy -vo null
to download the file.
Use lame to convert it to an mp3 if you want a smaller file:
lame --preset standard jonronsonon.wav jonronsonon.mp3
I've been meaning to buy one of Jon Ronsonon's books for a while.
@Bemused
Judging from the last opst, it seems Kangatard found some lithium.
His mood bell-curve is on the rise again after the predicted funk. He will now come up with various crazy schemes and plans which he will duly forget about because they require effort, and he will be back to blaming the world for his failures again soon enough.
Does this mean Casey owes income tax in Australia, too?
No. He is there as a non-resident, and his income "source" is his current tax residence which is the United States. Unless he files for permanent residency, the ATO is not interested in his foreign-source income. It can be argued that he is soliciting business whilst there, but it's very unlikely that the ATO would be concerned unless he established residency; the adit costs and returns they'd get make it not worthwhile.
That means, of course, that he owes US income tax on that money, so if (big if?) his actual income from the blog exceeds his expenses running it, he'd owe the US.
This could be a mess for him later, of course. I cannot imagine tht he's keeping good enough records to withstand even the most cursory of audits, but it would take a while for the IRS to catch up with him anyway.
STFU, Mocha!!

A hooker in Cincinnati cut a john open in the shape of an X. Right in his chest. Pulled out a bunch of shit and left him to die a horrible death. Oddly enough, he did die. He stiffed her on a $30 half and half.
She is now working as a collection agent for CashCall... ;)
only slightly worse than the Serin saga:
