		<description>You're assuming that I don't have a blog? 

But I do.... so I also have a face, and a name, and the ability to look at the pimples on face and pop them in public. And honestly, a lot of pimples as well...

But you have a good point, the intention of a blog, or rather, of this blog is not to turn on/off its readers.</description>

		<description>curiosity: you've just described the perfect way to put it. if i may oblige, a huge purpose of minishorts.net is to discover myself--i've said it's a place for me to experiment with ideas. it was never about turning something in potential readers on. if it has to turn readers like you off, then so be it, or some say 'better be it'. 

the outcome of minishorts.net is for the people i care and cherish to enjoy or deplore, the people who love me tell me what they think and we discuss issues within our circles. as bloggers, we learn from these self-indulging, public-exposing moments, and the difference between you and me is, i have a face, and a name, and the ability to look at the pimples on my face and pop them in public. you can hardly say the same for yourself. 

i haven't been so provocative towards readers in a long time. i think today's 'work' was overtly tiresome.</description>

		<description>Strange as it may sound, I can't help to agree that maybe you're a bit self centered. But then it's your blog so I guess you can be self centred, but nevertheless it's a bit or a turn-off to read such posts.

You seem to be overly focused on differentiating the blog and your actual self.  And also that you want to have an air of mystery for your real self.

"but I suppose when people complain I get too cryptic, its calming because at least, I know that the shields I build around myself are working better than I hoped they would"

Just my opinion.</description>

		<description>sometimes reading your blog is like watching desperate housewives.

How I hate it when the season ends with an episode that left you hanging there.. and keep on guessing what the hell is going on... XD</description>

		<description>Hi mshots:

I am also cryptic sumtimes, to sum, most times, to others, not at all.
I enjoy teasing my ER (which stands for EsteemedReaders),
but if some readers are baffled, it's okay, becosi uit's meant to be that way.
The ones who dare arsk Qs, and they get an asnwer, 1/2 baked or not.

So cheers to thy crytic rites, which I don't find c -- cynical maybe. Wella, I offer thee a tehtarik, mayhaps you'll speak less tongue-in-chic, which I like, really. If you don't believe, ask one helenoftroy, she'll desTROY me for targeting her! wella, that's just me.:) G'Dae! It's sundae, I feel like spreading some proFUNity!</description>

		<description>Harsh. Actually, I don't know, I would be rather interested in a rambling, uncontrollably, salivating, spotty, shapeless chipmunk if it's literal. Ah, I still remember when I was but a child, what a fan I was of Chip and Dale's Rescue Rangers, I always thought that Gadget was kinda hot, and Chip and Dale were lucky bastards to have her as their colleague, since all they've ever done were to torment poor Donald Duck, those amoral cunts.</description>
