Blog Directory Part II

TSZ Come Home!

Greetings again, crickets and trolls. As promised, here's the next installment of my guide to the wonderful world of Fark blogging. We're going to start by taking another look at a previous review. Last night I got a phone call from a very intoxicated TheSniperZERO, during which he begged me to reconsider my C rating of TFPSTC. Okay, Papa Bear. No sweat. Maybe I was a tad harsh in my original assessment. Here's my second take on the Critique, along with the rundown on a few other exciting blog destinations.

The Fark Photoshop Thread Critique
If there's one thing I can say about the Critic, it's that he makes a lot of good points. It's just unfortunate that he chooses to express himself through the time-honored tradition of being a jerk. However, if there's one thing I've noticed about TSZ's blog, it's that people bitch regardless of what he does. If he acts nice, people complain. If he gets mean, people complain. You really have to give him credit for straddling two extremes. Also, I would be remiss if I didn't note that many prominent PSers have praised the Critic for instilling them with a drive for self-improvement. It's for those reasons I have decided TFPSTC deserves a much higher rating.
Overall Grade: A

The Stupid Blog
Definitely the best written Fark Blog to date. The careful page construction and finely-crafted prose is unequaled in the community. Its anonymous author has really outdone himself. A must read!
Overall Grade: A+

The Brian Winchester Love Resource
Boner's been hard (get it?) at work this week. His lackluster Sneaker Critique has once again been rebadged as The Brian Winchester Love Resource. Truly, our friend Boner is the chameleon of the blogosphere. In this week's incarnation, he gives us some insight into his love life. A bit too much information, perhaps, but enthralling nonetheless. Boner's newest offering is his best by far. I like blogs that provide a useful service, instead of just spewing random hatred. Wayne Newton must die!
Overall Grade: B+


Scars and Stripes
Guess I should review this page by Texaco Saves next. Poor Texaco. For some reason, people often get us confused. I have no idea why. Perhaps his critics are sleep-deprived from hanging out at my blog all night. At any rate, I enjoy viewing his pictures. I wish I could comment on them, but I'm afraid it would invite a torrent of "Hi Texaco!" responses from the trolls. I don't think my fragile ego could take such an onslaught. At any rate, good job, TS.
Overall Grade: A-

Brian O'Blivion Exposé
I can't actually review this blog since I'm not on the guest list, but I've often wondered about its true nature. Is BO'BE the result of an angry PSer's vendetta against internationally renowned image mangler Brian O'Blivion? Are revelations about his shadowy past being exposed to the light of day? I guess I'll never know. If you ever get in, tell me how it is. Until such a time, I'm giving it a low score. Deal with it, pricks.
Overall Grade: F--

The Even More Better Than The Other One Fark Photoshop Thread Critique
As Fark blogs go, this one is practically prehistoric. Created during the original Blog Wars (Episode I: The Phantom Jackass), TEMBTTOOFPTC is still one of the most amusing examples of Critic parody on the Fark Blogweb. The only thing that keeps it from earning a high score is the reluctance of its enigmatic author to continue posting. In case you're out there, it's my duty to inform you that you're dangerously close to having a "life". Well, whatever floats your boat.
Overall Grade: A+

That's all for this installment. Thanks for joining me, gentle reader. I'll be bringing you another Blog Directory installment in a few days. By then, we should have a nice crop of new ones to enjoy. Remember my motto: "every blog has its day."

Stay tuned for more terrible puns from the Doctor!
