Multiple Punctuation

I tweeted something like “If someone emails me a question with 5 question marks as punctuation, I usually don’t answer. It’s worse than all caps. Seems like a demand.”
Since then (4 hours ago) it’s been retweeted, copied, and bounced all over twitterville. I guess I’m not the only one to feel that way. Haha.

Blow Hard, Know-It-Alls

I realize that when you participate in social media venues such as Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, you put yourself out there. And sometimes become the taget of the Blow Hard, Know-It-All, Jackass for no reason other than percieved misconception or plain ignorance.

Today I was publicy but lightly rebuffed by @baldheretic for having the words “Social Media Marketer” in my Twitter bio. His tweet: If your twitter bio says “Social Media Marketer” and you follow me you are likely to get denied and blocked like @greggluhring just did.”

I had just followed the chickenshit man because he was touted (maybe by himself) as a “Social Media Expert.” I did not ask him anything that would allow him to deny me anything. And the fact that he blocked me just showed me and the world that he was able to dish it out but was not willing to take it. By blocking me he effectively keeps me from replying to his twisted way of thinking. Usually you block someone if they are bothering you or if there’s a creepy situation like: they have no followers and are only following one person: You. I’ve blocked several people like that.

So what is the difference between a marketer and and expert? I call myself a marketer because I use the skills I’ve gained to help my clients in their marketing efforts mostly on the web. The things I’ve learned this year alone in Social Media would make most peoples’ heads spin. That’s why they hire me to do what I do. Because I understand and I have the aptitude in my skillset. I suppose you could call me an expert but I’m not so bold.

The man that calls himself an expert is an expert only in broad generalizations and blind classifications. Instead of Expert, I would call him a Social Media Dick. He kind of looks like one.

Aren’t blogs fun?

Scary Mary Poppins

You know how sometimes when you’re on the web and you get distracted by something else and that leads you off on a tangent, which leads to something else, which leads to something else, and so on and on and on? Of course you do.

While I was “studying” Pansy Warrior Princess from the previous post, I found this. This is a classic. Scary Mary…

Did you see her head spinning? I can’t imagine why I haven’t seen this before. Have you? Seen it?

If you know of other things out there that are so cool and bizarre please email me.
