Douchebrity makes a good try at relevance
The awkwardly colored Douchebrity launched a blog, and judging from the comment count, everyone else is about as impressed as I am. Might as well make them feel loved and go visit.
Not that there’s much to see. A Jessica Cutler gag makes me wonder if they’re even trying. At least they understand the Blogebrity spirit.
But giving a “fuck you” to Calacanis and Denton ain’t the best way to land a job at a real blog. And we’re sure as hell not letting you onto our fake blog. But we appreciate the backhanded legitimization of our presence. Sez Kyle, “Apparently when hack networks want to launch, we’re stop #1 on the bad parody train.”
Speaking of hack networks, Douchebrity’s choice of the triSexuality Wordpress theme from Jarkolicious unfortunately lumps it with Weblug, a fugly blog network straddling wrestling and laptops — a level of synergy only explicable through string theory.

It’s not one commonly used by my friends, and I’m willing to bet the same goes for Denton. But maybe that’s how all these Gawker rumors started.

Who decides what a real blog is. Half the stuff we read is made up crap.
