Damn I’m Cute Gets (White) Trashed
Something that is very interesting with this Community is receiving emails from people with ideas for sites and seeing how their ideas can be integrated into the current sites. Such was the case when Rhys Alexander emailed me and told me about the subject she wished to write about. To quote her email (hope she doesn’t mind and if she does I hope she isn’t looking):
So my topic is the glory of White Trash. I’m still thinking of a catchy name for it. (”Out of the Rubble”, maybe?)I’d include snippets from my own life, Internet sites dealing with white trash, news events/ products/etc…but with a fondness, rather than the classist scorn, usually associated with this category of people.
Now I am not sure how many people get these kinds of offers, but I certainly wasn’t going to turn it down and I knew the perfect site for it.
So yesterday, Rhys began writing for Damn I’m Cute and I must admit she started off with a bang. Looking forward to seeing the contrasts in content that develops on the site since I focus mainly on celebrities and she will focus on the White Trash lifestyle. Quality content at its best I must say.
4 commentsOur First Writer Crime Committed
Well I honestly didn’t think it would happen in the first week, but it did. We here at the Fine Fools Community have our first offender to violate the Writing Standards. Ahmad Zaki just couldn’t help it and decided to post twice yesterday on a Saturday, which clearly violates Standard #8.
8. Writers will never publish on weekends or holidays.
I scolded him immediately and after much crying we have reconciled our differences and he has decided to enjoy his weekends a bit more. It’s these sort of tough lessons in life that we all must go through as painful as they may be. I think both Ahmad and myself are much stronger people now after this and I am looking forward to our continued growth.
But what the hell Scrivs, you are writing this post on a Sunday?! You see, this doesn’t count as a violation because I must write about the previous violation which if you read the fine print in the Writing Standards you will see that this type of post is perfectly acceptable. If can not see the fine print, please call your local government authorities to retain the proper documentation. And besides, it’s Monday in Australia now.
Enjoy your weekend if you are on the right side of the world.
