I've come to the conclusion that my prior blog post, "How To Look Like A Slut," was maybe a little too off-topic. We've all seen the how-to videos on applying makeup and developing a look. This was about how to do everything "right" and end up with a low-class look, on purpose. Frankly, I thought it was uncanny, especially knowing how good Paperlilies (her YouTube name) really looks when she's not messing around imitating people, and I thought her act was spot-on and hilarious.
Still, I thought some of the tips were useful, especially in what to avoid! There were some other videos that were more serious about makeup, and then a few I threw in just to showcase her talent for looking and acting like various people.
After 270 views and zero comments, I'm not only starting to think that not everyone shares my appreciation of Bryony's senses of humor and irony, but that a lot of people weren't expecting a bunch of YouTube video links in the first place.
So, I've taken it down. If anyone is actually disappointed, or bookmarked it for later viewing, and would like a copy, just PM me with your outside email address, and I'll shoot you a copy of the html from the post.
Thanks for understanding, and apologies to all.
Comments
It's a mystery!
I know nothing! - about how to get comments and/or hits either. Things seem to get them, and then similar items will get none. That's blogs, stories is even stranger. What constitutes 'off topic' is unfathomable to me too. I saw the original, and looked at a few links I thought a lot of fun, but it was too late at night, and I get in trouble too often when I write at that time.
I'd say repost it; it won't hurt anyone. (Did you just edit it, and the hits here include the old blog? Or is this, with almost 300 hits, repeating the no comment thing?)
Just Edited
I didn't want to completely "black hole" the old one in case anyone bookmarked it. So, yeah, I just edited it, and changed the subject. So... the hits include all the original.
