The last entry about missed connections for a while
The nicest thing anyone has said to me over the last few days: "So, are you a personal trainer?"
And now, for the meanest thing:
You write a blog and talk about yourself constantly, which would be understandable, interesting, or even excusable if you were actually smart, funny, good-looking, or remotely interesting. ... you have a pretty good bod for a little dude, but your grill is really beat up. ... Do you think there is a shortage of vertically challenged gay guidos who spend most of their time in the gym, talking about the gym, or on their way to the gym while talking about the gym after posting on their livejournal (blog)?
OK, so, first of all, I had to look up "grill" on Urban Dictionary because I'm an idiot. Does it mean one's teeth or one's face? Because I know for sure that my teeth are not fucked up. I actually have very nice teeth. I'm surprised I don't blog about them more often.
Also, vertically challenged? What? I'm nearly six feet tall. When you actually do meet me in person, remind me of who you are so that I can rub hair gel in your eyes and then make fun of you for being the bitter angertwink I once was a few years ago. (We have a lot more in common than you think, douche bag! Ha!)
Comments
What's the problem? You got some love. You got some hate. Sounds like a typical day.

You accidentally dissed him at the club, I bet.

"Vertically challenged"? Um - yeah, that's clearly someone who's never seen you in person.
I have to admit though, I was pretty surprised how tall you are when I finally saw you in person. And I had plenty of time to make note of it while watching you do those squats over and over and over and....am I oversharing?

Anyone who uses the missed connections is automatically a douchebag. It was probably just Rocco, showing you love the only way he knows how.

You haven't arrived as a blogger until you get hate mail. And it's always anonymous, because anonymous equals brave and mature.
P.S. Don't be a bottom. Be versatile. It's WAY more fun.

Those who post on craigslist, shouldn't throw stones.
Also, a messed up barbeque does not make one unattractive. J/K.
PS I see why you would have dissed him at the club.

In a world where site hits are a measure of success, isn't all attention good attention?
I always thought 'grill' referred to teeth. Maybe that's his way of suggesting you should be blogging more about your teeth as well. Maybe he's a closet dental freak.
Or just a garden-variety loser.
None of that matters, though. What matters is the details of your arm workout. Clearly I'm doing something wrong.
PS Don't be versatile. That's just false advertising.

Seriously? Who writes crap like that?
Oh, that's right... Insecure asses who probably used "anonymous" when they left you a note. Forget them.
We all think you're funny.

Oops. Just realized it was "said" and not written. Oh well. I stand by the "insecure asses" comment.

It couldn't have been Rocco. The words were spelled correctly and the grammar was decent. If it was Rocco, it would have sounded as if Paris Hilton bypassed her publicist and put out a release on her own.

Grill=face. As in, "Keep on actin' an ass so I can bust you in your grill and not feel bad about it." And there's definitely nothing wrong with yours, at least not from where I was standing. If the guy who made that comment is so bothered by what you write about, why is he spending his time reading it?
I'm trying to figure out how you've been able to live here without hearing "grill" yet, but maybe that's something you only learn if you live or spend time east of 14th St.
PS - you look good. Find someone who will tell you that often.
