I feel honoured. In my 10 plus years of active internet life, I've never had my very own troll. Sadly this troll is under the impression I'm Sunny, so it's even more sad because said troll is not smart enough to read that I took over this journal a long time ago. But then again, this troll is not smart enough to make a very good argument either. I mean there are a million people out there who could rip on me and Sunny waaaaaaay better than this and maybe even make some legitimate points. Henceforth, this troll will be referred to as 205.207.121.49 since our troll is such a winner that he/she was too scared to take credit and use his/her real name. Let's take a look:

Keep on losing, losers.
Sunny and Blake are soul mates of loserdom. They will forever find new ways to lose, then bitch about it, then lose, then bitch about it, until they turn into piles of dust.

Here's the cycle: 1. Find out about thing. 2. Fail to win at thing. 3. Bitch about thing. 4. Start blog about how wrong thing is. 5. Fail to update that blog/let blog die. 6. Find new thing. 7. Repeat cycle. 8. Adjust medication as needed.

Forever and ever and ever and ever.

Like the twins in 'The Shining': "Come and lose with us. Forever. And ever. And ever."

So the biggest slam that you could come up with is that we lose. Going by the actual data, we lost one contest, which I think was aptly shown to be unethical and full of bullshit. And whereas we're being chastised for bitching about it, I'd say if anyone in the world comes across a corporation that is using unethical means to achieve their goals and you sit back and take it in the ass, that would be truly losing.

The cycle is even funnier. So we're losers because we blog about something and then we're losers because we no longer blog about it? I think 205.207.121.49 is trying to make the data fit a predisposed judgment rather than using the data to find the correct judgment. It's just the poorest kind of analysis.

I'd really love to see the other things that we've failed at. In fact, I'd say that we're doing pretty damn well. I'd say that indicating I'm working on a number of other creative projects in no way constitutes as failing at them, rather the contrary. I'd also say that pointing fingers and saying that I bitch constantly about everything is quite funny since that's exactly what 205.207.121.49 is doing here. I could make a supposition that this is someone from Cap C or Nissan who ended up not getting all the awards and prestige after this contest failed so hard, which would make them someone who lost and is now bitching about it. If that's not the case, so be it, but it's not a stretch to think it might be.

I would like to say thank you though because if 205.207.121.49 is coming after me because of the hypercube campaign failing, they're giving me and Sunny a hell of a lot of credit. I mean do you really think two losers such as ourselves could take down big powerhouses like Cap C and Nissan? I guess they really do see us as the internet elite. I'd love to say that little old us crumpled this campaign and made it the laughing stock of the ad world, but sadly, we can't take credit. Nissan and Cap C drove it into the ground themselves.

Nissan
Nissan makes great cars. You've just got a chronic case of Lifeloserdom. That's your role. You're gonna lose, you're gonna whine, you're gonna lose again, you're gonna whine again. You're probably gonna grow old watching your kids lose, unless they actually transcend the genetic lot they drew, and the awful guidance they receive at the hands of you two losers.

Here's an idea: want a car? Get a job. Show up. Get paid. Be smart with your money. It's not what you make, it's what you save. Once you get enough money, buy a car you can afford. Then you'll have a car. Get off the internet. Grab yourself a job instead of claiming agoraphobia of convenience which seems to kick in every time you have to go shopping, but lifts when there's an art show or a concert you absolutely have to attend because you're 'creative'.

I'll be the first to say that Nissan makes great cars and I was certainly considering getting one prior to this contest. I have no issue with the hardware, just the company behind it, which is reason enough for me not to buy one. What 205.207.121.49 fails to realize is that I've never once said that Nissan didn't make great cars. 205.207.121.49's not so good with the facts.

This whole comment is short on reality though, but I guess reality never stopped 205.207.121.49. I've already talked about the whole loser thing and wondered aloud what these supposed things we are losing at are, so I'll move on. When someone makes a decision based on how they feel rather than real information, they tend to make fools of themselves as evidenced here. Let's see, I have a job. A pretty awesome job at that. And I do really well at it. I show up, I get paid, I get promotions, I get all sorts of positives from it. I am smart with my money. I've gone from nothing, when I first came to Canada and couldn't work to owning a home and keeping a family functioning and above water on one income. That's unusual in this day and age and takes a lot of good money handling to accomplish.

Telling someone to get off the internet when yourself are on the internet is in itself enough of a reason to dismiss this comment, but just to be thorough, I work on a computer. Being on the internet is necessary for me to work. Which is what 205.207.121.49 wants me to do.

Once again, I have a job and I don't have agoraphobia either (and have never claimed to). If 205.207.121.49 is referring to Sunny, then first, 205.207.121.49 needs to learn to read because it's been pretty apparent that I took over this blog a long time ago. As well, claiming that you know more than a number of doctors about Sunny's mental state, when you can't even read enough to figure out who is writing this shows just how inept your ability to think is. To add to that, if 205.207.121.49 did know how to read, 205.207.121.49 would realize that Sunny can go anywhere with me and does often, she just doesn't go alone. Not even to "an art show or a concert." Once again, lack of reading comprehension. Or maybe just lack of comprehension.

Have you gotten up off your couch today?
And the whine goes on and on and on and on,
Blake and Sunny,
Never gonna win at life
They're sucking
The tailpipe of the Gaw-aw-awds!

Can't decide what to lose at next,
But you'll see it on the internet,
They fail, and fail repeatedly!

This is probably the weakest attempt at a comment because it doesn't really say anything except that we keep losing at things and life in general. Again, I have no idea what I'm losing at. I have a loving wife, brilliant kids, I own a home, I have a job I love and compared to most Canadians, we have very little debt. Could I handle a big raise at work? Of course, but who couldn't? And realistically, that'll come in time.

I admit, I sat on my couch when I ate dinner tonight. That was for about 20 minutes and then I got off it. Looking through my blog, I have certainly pointed out things that I'm going through, but I'm not failing at them, I figuring out how I want to proceed with them in the most intelligent way. I've looked through Sunny's site and of the entire first page of posts, they are all positive except maybe one about Jenny McCarthy being stupid and really, it's looking back on how things were in Sunny's head pre-medication and showing how she's won and is in a better place, so not really even bitching or losing in that post.

So yeah, this is some of the worst trolling I've ever seen. With a little effort, 205.207.121.49 could have actually gotten some real information and maybe even made a legitimate point. I hate to say it, but 205.207.121.49, you lose. It's likely that you lost something because they Hypercube campaign failed. You lost and you're bitching about it. Your bitching was incredibly weak and you lost about that too? Are you going to come back here and bitch about losing at that too? Sucks to fail at your own game doesn't it?

I certainly invite any criticism of the views that I express. I invite all non-chickenshit people to say what they have to say, identify who they are and stand behind their opinions, just as I do. If all 205.207.121.49 can do is post anonymously and go on an uninformed bitch rant, 205.207.121.49 has already lost all credibility and will thus be ignored henceforth. But feel free to keep posting your useless shit. Hey lose more and bitch all about it. You seem to be the expert.

PS Still hate Nissan
