Despite a half-million hits last month, wicked political clout and a fresh lemony scent, FITS has somehow fallen out of favor with the geeks who compile a listing of South Carolina’s “most influential” political blogs.
We’re not sure whether our check got lost in the mail or what, but BlogNetNews has decided to banish us from its rankings, which is odd considering that we were ensconced atop this same list a few months ago before switching over to our new format.
Anyway, now we’re apparently less influential than this guy, who sounds like he’s about to die or something.
Declining health has forced some radical changes in my life. (My) blog is a way of venting about many of those changes, as well as waxing poetic on politics, law, science fiction, television, culture, cellebrity photos, and dabbling in fiction. Anything and everything can show up here eventually.
Damn, dude. We hope you feel better.
Anyway, what’s good about this snub is that it provides our founding editor with a perfect opportunity to reinforce his whole “condescending asshole” stereotype, which we’re sure our Atlanta-based PR firm will appreciate.
To wit …
“We’ve evolved beyond blogging,” Sic Willie says. “In fact, this hasn’t been a blog for some time now. We’re as mainstream as anybody, only crunchy.”
Sic added (repeatedly) that he has a large penis, makes lots of money and spends his days fielding calls from the most powerful people in the state.
“Make sure they put that big penis thing in there,” he said. “It’s still my website, right? Make sure everybody knows I have a big penis.”

Maybe your schtick is coming up a little short these days–if you know what I mean.

Sensual sic(K). A departure for you. Here is the truth; Will Folks has never been influential. He was always drunk when he worked for the Governor and the only reason he ever got famous was for beating up his girlfriend.
Will Folks is a fraud and no one pays him any attention except for Nikki Haley, Ashley Landess, Tom Davis and the Governor.
Oh and how could we forget Howie Rich and the scumsuckers at SCRG, SC Club for Growth and Reform SC.
No one else pays Sic(K) Willie’s rants any attention.

seriously, the old format was better in that you could come to the site and see things in true chronological order.

Will, if you don’t mind, we’ll just take your word for it on the size thing. No need to share that with us.
What is a polyphemus? Sounds pornographic to me.

I sorta feel sorry for ol’ Jamie/Polyphemus. Still, it sounds like he’s setting somebody up for a worker’s comp claim. Declining health and radical changes usually necessitate sponsors.

From dictionary.com, a polyphemus is either a Cyclops, or a very large American moth whose larva are “…very large, bright green, with silvery tubercles, and with oblique white stripes on the sides, feeds on the oak, chestnut, willow, cherry, apple, and other trees.”
Ewwwwww

“Polyphemus” was the cyclops who imprisoned Odysseus and his men in The Odyssey. The title is bitterly ironic as I am blind in one eye.
For the record, I am setting anyone up for workman’s comp. I may be an invalid, but I am also already loaded.
Thanks for the added traffic. stick around. i post lotsof photos of half naked celebrities.

Just one problem with your logic, WMD. If no one pays any attention to Will and this site then why do you keep coming back and posting? Oh wait — snap. It’s alright…your penis envy is understandable next to Mandingo Folks.
By Earl Capps December 8, 2008 at 6:30 pm
H … I hope he keeps his tubercles in his pants.
By H December 8, 2008 at 6:58 pm
Sorry Jamie. Earl–we can only hope, but some will always find a medium to parade their wares.

There’s nothing wrong with WMD’s logic, and he certainly knows sic(k) willie very well. He also has excellent judgment, is not a convicted felon and he brushes after every meal – no matter what he eats. Can’t say that about willie.
Visiting this pathetic little porn site is like passing a horrific traffic accident on I-405. You know what you will see will be horrible and stupid, but you can’t help yourself. You’ve got to look.

Not gonna lie, I liked the old layout better. The colors on this new style are too dark, the blue and white was classier and made it easy to read. Also, it was easier to read things post by post, rather than having to search around for the things you want to read like you do now, you could just go through the linear progression. Sorry Will. It’s the same quality journalism, just half the sparkle and pizazz.

Let’s face it, we’re all just killing time here until/if Laurin Manning goes back online with a real blog.
