If it weren't for you meddling kids

At the end of each episode of Scooby Doo, the villain always says, “and I would have gotten away with it if it weren’t for you meddling kids.” That’s how I feel about the guys at Catallarchy.net.

Well I may be an unemployed man without a wife or girlfriend still living with my parents despite being over the age of 30, but at least I’m not so stupid as to think that a gorgeous young girl would be the author of a popular libertarian blog. She’d be too busy having fun. The kind of fun found in this post, except it would be happening every night instead of just being a one time event. You guys are so gullible!

Libertarians tend to be ugly because it’s an anti-majority philosophy. People who are attractive have an easy time going through life and derive far too many advantages from the status quo to ever question it. It’s only outsiders, who are usually ugly, who join up with fringe movements.

One thing I learned from this blog is how easy attractive woman have it. When I had a blog as my real self, no one linked to me, no one left any comments, it was as if the blog existed in a vacuum. But things were different for Libertarian Girl. Every day I’d check Technorati and discover new unsolicited links. It was like I had warped into an alternate universe where all the rules had changed. At the rate things were happening, this would have been an A-list blog in a few more months.

It’s funny how there have been some posts in the blogosphere saying that the political blogosphere was a boys club that discriminated against women, as evidenced by how few politics bloggers were women. Boy were they completely off the mark. It’s ten times easier for a woman’s blog to become popular.

This effect no doubt carries over into the real world. Whenever I see an attractive woman with a successful career, I’ll remember the experience of this blog and assume that she didn’t really get there on merit, just her looks.

Some people might think there’s something homosexual about me pretending to be a girl, but don’t worry, I assure you that I have the hots for the girl in the picture just like all of you, and I have absolutely zero sexual desire for any of my male readers. There’s nothing more homosexual here than any male fiction writer writing female characters.

I’m going to miss this blog. It was fun having a blog that people actually read, even though it only lasted for less than two months. I should have figured that the type of people who read libertarian blogs are the same type that read Russian brides websites. When I make my next hoax blog, I’ll make sure to use a more obscure photo.

By the way, does anyone know if there really are gorgeous young women in Russia willing to marry much older and uglier men from the United States? Or is it just a scam?

Yes there are, but after a short time they divorce you and demand half of everything you own.

Fuck it, man, you've got a good deal going. I recommend you throw up that girly picture again, and just continue with the charade.

You are still stupid!!!! Be you he or a she. Your blog was more for entertainment value like reading the Onion or something

[austroblogger]

Very nicely done. (Tips hat)...
Just one thing though. There is a faint probability that some us just enjoyed disagreeing with a libertarian... I ll miss the argument, not the picture. Blondes could be found closer to home if that were the motivation.

Remember Tertullian? Something is not true just because its said harshly.

Be Happy

Oh, definitely do not quit. Make it like an open secret but you still will get people who don't know better.

Friend of mine met a nice girl while he was in Russia... brought her home, married her. Few months later, she accused him of abuse and filed for divorce. Apparently the US has a law that "protects" foreign women from abuse by allowing them to become citizens without being married for the full required time (a year? two years) if they suffer from "abuse."

My feelings about this law are pretty neutral. On the one hand, it encourages exactly this sort of scam, while on the other hand, caveat emptor. On the gripping hand, the foreigner certainly is in a weaker position once they come into the country.

Anyway, forget about hot Russian chicks. Come to Silicon Valley. White geeks like you are in high demand here among the hot chicks who moved here looking for a sugar daddy.

Is there a link to the post where your gig was revealed? It's not clear in your post.

You know, the reason I didn't have a hard time believing it was because I actually didn't think the girl in the picture was all that hot.

It looked like one of those pictures where when an average-looking girl gets caught with the right lighting from the right angle looks kinda sorta pseudo-hot. Also she looked like she might be a bit plump.

So I figured that LG wasn't all that hot. I was actually surprised to see the other pictures of the girl, in which she looks much hotter. Maybe LG should have used those, but those were pretty obviously like "sexy" shots.

Also, I think everybody is actually used to blonde, airhead, pseudo-hot women being right-wingers. Think Ann Coulter, Laura Ingraham, Heather Macdonald, etc.
