I can’t believe I’ve gone almost eleven months without a blogger feud. Let’s do this.<\/p>\n
Nonny Nu (nonnynu dot blogspot dot com), a blogger who writes mainly about her cats, decides to throw some stones. <\/p>\n
First, she uses a picture of my King Lear cake<\/a> on a Happy Birthday posting on her blog, which is totally fine with me. But then she ends with this:<\/p>\n P.S. That isn’t the birthday cake. That’s just some photo I found on the web. But, can you believe some people are so serious and hoity toity as to quote Shakespeare on a birthday cake? No doubt, they will be having wine with it. *eyes*<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Serious and hoity toity? I rather thought I was being whimsical and hoity toity. And what’s wrong with a little wine on your birthday?<\/p>\n That’s it, Crazy Cat Lady, I’m calling you out. Don’t you know it’s not nice to taunt a fellow blogger? Especially not one whom you have given temporary control over the image at the top of your blog? I just replaced it with this picture<\/a> and you should just be glad I didn’t get all goatse.cx on you. (To my readers: If you don’t know what that is, just let it go.)<\/p>\n Let this be a warning to others. Rule number one: you do NOT mock the Shakespeare Teacher.<\/p>\n UPDATE: She’s got it fixed now, but for about eight hours today, her site looked like this<\/a>.<\/p>\n UPDATE II: I just read through her comments, and she posted this<\/a> image of a cake that has such a delicious self-referential paradox that even W.V.O. Quine would ask for seconds. (Who’s hoity toity now?) I think I’ll head over and offer a truce.<\/p>\n UPDATE III: The truce has been accepted, and what must be the shortest feud in Internet history has come to an end.<\/p>\n\n
