As most of you know, I’ve been absolutely railroaded by pneumonia for the past two weeks, and making matters worse, the bacteria didn’t really respond to the meds, thus leaving me in a rather exhausted and catatonic state for some time now. Subsequently the rate at which I can post has been severely affected (the latest Big Brother photocap literally took me two days to assemble). Rest assured, it’s not for lack of desire; only lack of energy. The good news is that I’m on new, more powerful meds, and there should be new content up hopefully soon — but I’m not rushing it. Of course, I shouldn’t have to explain all this. It’s my blog, and I can post whatever I want whenever I want.
So imagine my utter disdain and annoyance at the entitlement that came from the following email:
basically you don’t post often enough. love your posts but frustrating to check every day for new content and it’s not there! especially after bb shows. i realize that you’ve been sick but can you please step it up for the rest of the season, please?
appreciate the effort,

Well, Deedee from Canada, consider this your dream come true. A new post! And it’s all about you!
For the rest of you, thanks for your patience.

Bitch needs to learn how to use RSS.
Ouch – Kinda harsh. I was expecting more bitchiness from the e-mail.
Those Crazy Canadians.
You can’t take them anywhere.
Wow, suck it up B!! Don’t you know none of us have a life so we have to come here to have one?? Selfish guy who cares for nothing but for himself…
Actually, I’m hoping you’re on the mend especially because we need you at the BB finale and wrap up show!! Yeah, I’m selfish like that.
I just recently came upon you and your blog… and now I love you even MORE!
Hope the new meds do the trick. Pneumonia sucks.
i didn’t know the Svan was Canadian.
hb
very nice…
hope you’re on the mend, b.
LOL, hb!
Feel better, B!
BITCH! please
Of course it’s your blog and you can post whatever you want whenever you want to. i only meant that i would like to see more postings especially about bb. not that i’m entititled to them. didn’t get the reaction from you that i expected but i did get a lot of attention, didn’t i? Love the pic of Michelle O and will consider it a badge of honour to be compared to her.
sorry to hurt your poor sick feelings. didn’t realize the b in b-side stood for baby.
get better soon and back to your old self

Oh, screw those needy, impatiant canucks anyway…they just wanna take, take, take. My mother told me that’s what Canadians are all aboot!
I wish I could bring you some chicken soup, or a happy meal, or at least some sort of recreational drugs, B-Side. You’re just too damn cute to be sick this way. And I haven’t forgotten what pneumonia did to that vapid-but-beautiful Fannie Skeffington. Oh, dear God, not my imaginary BF, B-Side! Not his pretty face! Noooooooooo!
Seriously, I’ve had the pneumonia and it’s not nearly as much fun as it’s cracked up to be. I implore you to take it easy and (please) feel better soon.
what a chode. that was highly insensitve… course, you know that, lol. hope you’re feelin hale and hearty soon.
WOW it is odd to see what people will take the time to complain about – take it as a pat on the back for writting great recaps.
Forget about real world events – Bside MISSED A POST YA’LL – about a show that we already watched last week!! – write your own recap dee dee from canada.
poor Bside – hope the stronger meds work!
stupid comments SHUT IT DOWN
I’m sorry is there a D-side blog that I can comment and complain what a douche nozzle she is being to our sick friend ?
NO!? oh Didn’t think so.
It’s all aboot dee dee!
I bet she is a fan of candy striped clothes too.
And she probably thinks repugnant Natalie on BB is sweet and honest.
and babies, she probably eats babies too
PS: thanks for making us Canadians look bad, deedee
bah.
I love that deedee was so funny and gracious in her response. And that she had the balls to post a response at all.
I’m with FireCat, this is a pretty harsh response to someone who is just a big fan of your work.
Hope you’re feeling better.
Did you know that pneumonia is the 6th leading cause of death in the US? As someone who nearly died of pneumonia, I want people to realize that it is not just a bad cold. Rest is very important when your are trying to recover so you rest all you want b-side and don’t worry about your blog. Your real fans will understand.
so zev, where does “getting shanked by a blogger whose web site you critizied” fall in the rankings?
hb
lol. Probably not as high as it should, hb.
B- Please don’t waste what little energy you have on the whiners! Hope your new power-meds do the trick.
I don’t get it, B-Side. I would be flattered if people missed my posts when I get sick. Then again, I’ve never walked a day in your shoes, so I’ll reserve judgment. Hope you feel better soon.
I’m glad you are alive. I hope your stronger meds do the trick. Just get better!
Considering how sucky things have been in the BB house lately B, you might be glad to be too sick to recap the events. I hope that you feel better soon.
hb- you are the leading cause of my possible death…from laughter!
Of course you can do what you want. I only meant that you should do what I want. Friggin’ hell. So not only are you make the rest of us Canadians look demanding, you’re not giving a great impression of our grasp of what we’re saying either.
LOVIN that the only tag for this is “awful” hahaha
feel better soon
