Heh...

I'm really not the only one. I'm not the only one wondering what the fuck has been going on at Gut Rumbles. And, I'm not just talking about this latest load of utter stupidity, either. That, I do get...as I explained in the previous post.
I also linked Random Fate's post about it, which I'm about to do again and now...I've found another one who ain't laughin'.
Now, I'm gonna go poke around a bit and see if anybody else is concerned, disgusted, losing interest...whatever. (I know of two other 'silent partners' feelin' the same way...) I'm gonna add whatever links I find right here as I find 'em.
Seems not everybody thinks some people are as cute as they think they are.
Yeah...what a fuckin' newsflash.

Here's one.
And, another...
(Jesus...this is not at all difficult...)
And, let's not forget Rob, himself...
Him again...
His most telling comment...
Then you never should have fucked with ny blog if you couldn't fix it. And I don't want to hear any pissing and moaning from you, either. You took two years of my life made a laughing stock out of it. You fucked it up, you fix it,

Okay...now I'm gonna put the comments here, too. I'm not going to post the commenters names, though. They commented where they commented, not here. Besides, all I'm interested in is how many people are sick of this shit.
Be right back...
1. Did you really think this was funny? The first day it was cute. The second day it became annoying. After that I became worried about my cat in New Mexico. I am half expecting Acidman to go on a cross-country hunting trip for cat pelts. Would I blame him for his anger? Not in the slightest, apparently you had his trust, but you don't anymore. Was it worth it?
2. Fuckin bunch of teenage girls is what you have acted like.
3. (Rob again...) Get this shit of my page. If I wanted a fucking cat-blog, i would write my own. Keep this cutesy shit up and I'll post some cat pictures of my own, DEad ones from the side of the road, all bloated and full of maggots.

See how cute you thnk that is.

4. I haven't ever had the pleasure of meeting Rob in person, but it seems a mighty cruel thing to put cats all over his weblog when it was the one outlet he has. From reading his weblog and the emails we have exchanged in our occasional debates, he seems to be an honorable man who appreciates a joke, but this one has gone too far. It might be best that those who altered his template restore it.

Rob struggles with demons, as we all do, but there is more than meets the eye. I suspect his demons are ones that not only would I not like to deal with every day, but demons that I wouldn't even want a nodding acquaintance with. I think it would be best to clean up his blog and let the man alone. I know his blog-friends are expressing their concern when they ask him to "come back" because they want proof he is OK, but it comes across as a demand to entertain. He has no obligation to entertain us, no obligation to explain himself to us, and no obligation to continue dealing with a joke that has gone too far.
5. Well said. The initial faked entries were hilarious (and obviously, fakes), but after that, things got entirely out of hand. He'll eventually (soon, I hope) get over the fragging, but I don't think the relationship will ever be the same.

And...on that note...
I'm getting bored with this, now.
Besides, I found a cool quiz over at Jane's, so, I'm (mostly) done with this. If I find more people who understand the difference between funny and stupid, I'll definitely let ya's know.
But, I believe the point has been made.
