DON'T BE A JERK!

I mean yeah, I guess you can be a jerk if you want to. I'm just saying: I would advise you not to be.

You know, reading this blog sometimes makes me feel like I'm in the movie Gaslight.
I see things, then I don't, then I see them again!
Am I insane?
Don't answer that!

Oooh, I wanted to see that! In general, do you recommend?

I bet you're talking about a couple accidents I've had recently with scheduling posts? Published by mistake, then immediately withdrawn to Drafts and re-published as "scheduled" for the original intended date?

I always have trouble with that. I've noticed the posts still appear in feed-readers no matter how fast you pull it back.

Sorry about that! Say, if there's a particular post that caught your eye and you want me to "bump it up" I can probably oblige (as long as it's not something that's strongly occasion-based)!

Gaslight is worth viewing if anything just to watch Ingrid Bergman. I'll watch anything with Ingrid Bergman in it.
Good mystery and Boyer does an excellent evil. Something about the way he says the name "Paula."
Added bonus: a young saucy Angela Lansbury.
Or maybe not a bonus.
Watch it and you'll see what I mean about your posting "accidents."

Gaslight is on Youtube!
Of course it's in about a GAGILLION parts.

So that is what you meant though, right? The missing posts?

Yeah, I'm familiar with elements of the premise of Gaslight, because of the term "gaslighting" (my stalker accused me of it! which, now that I think of it, maybe I've been ruthlessly gaslighting all of you with my bait-and-reschedule post habits).

I would like to see it, because it sounds like a good, evil suspenser - but I think I'll skip the You-Tube for a more put-together version!

I totally recommend Gaslight. Nice thriller.

I agree that the way things are moved and sometimes deleted here are a little frustrating and/or confusing. But it's not like you're hiding anything, you're just overly organizational and planny. I don't particularly think you're trying to drive anyone mad.

[looks up "gaslighting" as a term]

LOL.

You psychological intimidator, you!

Wow, that's not even funny. You're so far from that. That's a gross accusation to make against someone, especially someone like you.

dogimo said...

Thank you, Blue. I certainly thought so.

OK, I have to see this movie! It looks pretty rad.

I'm not planny! I'm just streaky. It feels dumb to have like, 50 posts in 10 days and then weeks without nothing. So I try to throw any excess posts forward. Even out the fallow patches.

blue said...

Sure. By the way, you should watch a nice DVD version of Gaslight, either alone on a nice rainy night or with a companion on a plain-weather evening. Nothing that can be watched elsewhere should ever be watched off YouTube! Yuck.

THIS MOVIE'S HORRIFIC!!!

I'm about halfway through!
