What in the fuck is a “stog?”

May 25, 2009

Hi.  I’m Peter.

“Hi, Peter!”

Hi.

I can’t remember who it was that first called me “a blog visionary.”

But it was probably me.

I know you have questions, tweedle bugs.  I’m bringing the answers.

Patience is more than just a name you give your child who eventually grows up to be a super talented pole dancer with warm eyes that make a man believe that her feelings are genuine and that even though she takes money to spend time with him she actually really enjoys it and–

OK.

Many of us have moonlighted on group blogs. I created (and eventually abandoned) Burt Reynolds’ Mustache. Brandy is one of the posters at Ummm… Now What?

The problem with group blogs, typically, is that the posters are usually blogging at two places at once.  It can be taxing.  Soon your hygiene goes to hell.  You are skipping your weekly orgy to write blog posts.  It’s… not fun.

But Brandy and I knew that we wanted to do a project together. We owed it to the world.

We wanted something different. We tossed around some ideas. Maybe I would post in french.  Maybe Brandy would type only with her nipples. Which, frankly, might be problematic as her left nip is a tad dyslexic.

I wanted to create something called, “Peter brings sexy back… while Brandy comes along for the ride.”

She…  didn’t much like the idea.

Eventually we settled on a short term blog. Or a…

Wait for it…

Wait…

Sorry. My phone is ringing.

One sec.

I’m on hold now.

Fuck it.

We settled on a short term blog. Or a…

STOG.

On a scale of 1 to “Miley is Hannah Montana?!?!” how blown is your mind right now?

It was decided that we would run this STOG for a week.  That’s it.  No longer.

When the week is over, we’ll just let the STOG sit there.  Brandy likened it to “a time capsule.”  It will mark but a moment in time in the bogging era.

A genius moment, because it is us, but a moment nonetheless.

I’ll be posting each morning this week. (Monday – Friday.)  And Brandy will handle the afternoons.  Each day will have a theme (of sorts) but we won’t tell you what they are.  We’re creating art here, people!

I don’t want to oversell this, but Brandy and I together on the same blog is the greatest combination since…

Chocolate syrup and milk. Or Lennon and McCartney. Or my motor boatin’ face and your booobs.

Still unsure what a STOG is?

It is magic sliding down a rainbow into a pot of awesome.

Oh. The title?

Well, we’re not a couple.

Duh.

Plus, why should only couples be allowed to do a couples blog? (Or STOG.)

We hope that you enjoy our STOG (and check in at least twice a day.)

And we hope that you’ll try your own.

But not until we are done with ours.

Thunder-stealing bastardos.

    I’m going to venture a guess that the ground-breaking banner art is your handiwork, Peter?

    STOG on, kids. STOG on.

    • How did you know?

      I was doodling what I wanted to try to con some photoshoppy expert into creating. The result amused me. Brandy also thought we should use it. Quite possibly to make me look like a goof.

    Ok, I’m sold.

    But only because Peter is from NS.

    You stogs are ambitious! I can barely keep it up for my own blog anymore, let alone starting a new one!

  7. Hope said

    Haha! Can’t wait to see what you two have in store for us this week!

    The secret revealed!

  10. I’m totally down for this wild and crazy ride! Here we go!

  11. I love it! It would be funny to write in the stog (worst word ever) for one week, hand the keys over to another not-a-couple, who would write it in it for one week, who would then hand the keys over…

    It’s like a blog chain letter.

    A chlog, if you will.

  12. i think i like it. will let you know at the end of the week.

    Ooh. How clever. I can’t resist things that are available for a limited time only. It’s like when Disney releases a classic from the vault!

  15. Marie said

    Pretty awesome idea. 🙂

    In a word – this is such an effin’ great idea.

    Oh wait a minute – that was seven words.

    Oh well, you get the sentiment I’m sure… 🙂

    brilliant! maybe i should put time limits on my blog too. then i wouldn’t get mean letters when i don’t blog for two weeks. (bad blogger, i.)

  18. I am still laughing at this: On a scale of 1 to “Miley is Hannah Montana?!?!” how blown is your mind right now?

    Love it.
