Fisking can sometimes make you look a little childish
So I’m a total dick on the internet. All my pals know it. I engage in fisking sometimes, arguably one of the most dickish activities one can take part in. Even so I can never reach the dizzy hights of dickishness of Tory blogger Donal Blaney. He may quite possibly a very clever parody (much like a British Stephen Colbert). I don’t know. Claire Hazelgrove is politically a nobody. She’s only 20 and who has heard of her? Why would anyone go out to shoot her down? But on Blaneys blog he decides to rip into her posting a little bit of internet fluff. You know that ‘tell us 25 things few people know about you’ thing that’s going round facebook / twitter? Well Blaney fisks the hell out of her answers. The result is embarrassing. I remember when my little sister talked like he does. She grew out of it when she was about 14. When Ms. Hazelgrove says;
I’m utterly useless before 10am, although I do quite often have to get up before then.
Blaney wittily retorts;
Judging by your contribution to political life thus far, you’re not much better after 10am either, you idle sheet-presser.
Meow! Is this guy for real? The rest of the thread is pure gold in my opinion. Including a perhaps slightly unfair comparison to Hitler and I think every comment should be prefixed with a *cat noise* What a pissy little bitch he is! He’s got to be a nu-labour plant. Check out the rest of the blog for more chortles, including some really weak attacks on Obama. Didn’t Donal get Dave’s memo? We’re supposed to all love Obama now!

Oh dear!! Thanks for giving me half an hour of looking into the mind of a very twisted and weird little man. My particular favourite is:
11) I have a certificate of distinction for playing the French Horn, although I swear the thing was about as heavy as me at the time.
I suspect that was the last time you’ve ever given anyone the horn too.
Eh?! Maybe some of the points Mr Blaney should have just left well alone…
Excuse my ignorance but isn’t the blogger’s equivalent of pulling pigtails?! This guy seems to be stalking her on facebook and asking people to send photos of her!? I imagine the ideal outcome for this guy is to have the most ridiculous non debate with Ms. Hazelgrove because he thinks it will all end in smooching and hand holding.
I always enjoy reading other blogs like this that are full of erroneous, self affirming tripe (it’s why I read yours!) so if you find any more, make sure you let us all know about it!
