Delurking Day
Today is Delurking Day here on Infomaniac.
We know that some of you have been peering through the keyhole for some time now, watching the goings-on in silence but never leaving a comment.
[via Kapitano]
So all day today (and Wednesday) we here at Infomaniac ask you lurkers to come out from hiding behind the couch and join us …
Afterall, would it kill ya to comment?
Mistress MJ doesn't bite. Much.
You can tell us a little about yourselves if you like or tell us why you visit Infomaniac. Or just pop in with a “Hello, bitches.” Whatever you please.
And now for the rest of you …
Regular Infomaniac Bitches are encouraged to leave comments describing your first tentative steps onto Infomaniac and how you became an Infomaniac bitch.

ReplyDeleteI haven't come out of the Infomaniac closet yet.
i continue to take tentative steps here in infomaniac land. if you cleared the god damned walk, maybe i could get up to the door without tripping & killing myself.
ReplyDeleteDid I ever tell you how I met MJ? I was in a bar by the docks and this horrible floozy came in and told everybody she was Charo's illegitimate daughter and cried until somebody bought her a drink and sent her on her way. Honey, she worked that scam for YEARS. The scary things was she actually did sort of look like Charo.
ReplyDeleteI had been lurking Infomaniac for several weeks when MJ found me and left a comment on my blog. I welcomed the Mistress and asked if it were true that to become an Infomaniac bitch you must submit a picture of your ass?
ReplyDeleteShe most definitely confirmed that after commenting only once on Infomaniac that “All male lurkers and new commentators must submit a picture of their ass to be considered true Infomaniac bitches."
Putting aside the fact that she is a horrible floozy and gave me leprosy...
well…
That’s about it…
Lurkers Beware!
I'm not going to say, it will bring focus on the issue and I'd have to boycott yet another blog.
ReplyDeleteBe afraid of MJ, be very afraid.
I was an innocent , trusting young man gamboling thru the blogsphere. Miss MJ and that blighter Frobisher tricked me into coming here , spiked my drink , stole my passport and faked incriminating photographs :-(
ReplyDeleteI lurked at MJ's House of Filth after I'd heard there was another old witch on the block. Possibly a dragon.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I thought I'd come and check out the enemy, but had my pure, heterosexual god-fearingness irrevocably torn from me once MJ-
Wait a minute... That was someone else.
I'd heard MJ was a foul-mouthed heathen with a penchant for male nudity, so I popped over to have a gander, and haven't looked back since.
Really, I haven't. She's trapped me here! Help! HELP!!
Greetings Mistress and Infomaniac Bitches!
ReplyDeleteI is be back from de West Indies.
Miss me?
I kept on falling over the mistress on other blogs and came to see what all the fuss was about.
Oh yeah, I'm sorry I didn't pop by while I was away, except I was on my nephew's laptop and he's 13. I didn't think Infomaniac would be approved view. Hell, I don't even think it's approved viewing on my laptop.
I'm a long time lurker. But am too scared to own up to my fascination of your blog! Plus, I don't have anything even remotely witty to say.
ReplyDeleteSo- anonymouse comment only.
Oh, and by the way, I found you via Xl.
No, I will not put my name to this squalid collection of puerile filth, you trollop. Let's have some nice (vegan) recipes and photographs of delightful country scenes, like a normal blog, you vile tart.
ReplyDeleteNeither am I telling people how I found you, lest others make the same mistake.
Oh Hi Bitches...
ReplyDeleteOnce upon a time I was just quietly surfing the “interwebbythingy” looking for nothing at all in particular and suddenly found it!
I had inelegantly stumbled across Mistress MJ and the Bitches of Infomaniac.
“What is this horrid site” I thought, who are all these bitches of whom she speaks?
Why are they having so much fun?
Being quite a timid soul, I confess that I lurked for months, peeping through the cracks, then, one day summoning all of my courage; I discretely emailed Dear Mistress MJ.
Do I really have to submit an “alluring arse shot” to become an “Infomaniac Bitch”?
“Yes you do” said Dear Mistress. “And I don’t know how I’ve let you slip through the cracks! Hee Hee. Get it"? Was her reply…
She instantly became a very, very, wise and wonderful mentor and encouraged me to have a go. The rest is history I’m afraid.
Very, Very, Afraid…
So I see we're poppin' cherries here today. I found my way to Mistress MJ's blog via Jason and have been lurking about. I confess that I'm intrigued by a bawdy woman who will spread her legs for a bottle of Irish whiskey. There was a time when I'd go 'round the world for less than that. Maybe we share a kindred spirit. My family was thrown out of Canada you know. As for my rear end, you'll be seeing it soon enough.
ReplyDeleteSo I'm officially delurked. I need a hot shower.
I came here while it was knitting-blog via the crocheting class of Mr. Knudsen.
ReplyDeleteThen things developed.
XL: I haven't come out of the Infomaniac closet yet.
ReplyDeleteThat’s because I’ve bolted the door shut.
You may come out when you’ve finished fluffing my pillows.
NORMADESMOND: i continue to take tentative steps here in infomaniac land. if you cleared the god damned walk, maybe i could get up to the door without tripping & killing myself.
Perhaps if you didn’t insist on wearing six-inch stilettos!
MR. PEENEE: Did I ever tell you how I met MJ?

Coochie coochie, baby!

Lurkers Beware!
After reading your latest post, I would like to add that you are in danger of losing your title as Official Penis of Infomaniac.
CYBERPOOF: I'm not going to say, it will bring focus on the issue and I'd have to boycott yet another blog.
ReplyDeleteBe afraid of MJ, be very afraid.
In one of our earliest conversations I remember you telling me, “I'm gay and I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE Kylie.”
As if I hadn’t picked up on it already.
I believe I chose to act surprised and gasped, “NO!”
BEAST: I was an innocent , trusting young man gamboling thru the blogsphere. Miss MJ and that blighter Frobisher tricked me into coming here , spiked my drink , stole my passport and faked incriminating photographs :-(
You have been coming here since 2006 and frankly, you can’t remember the misery that was your life before Infomaniac, can you?
You’re welcome.
IVD: I lurked at MJ's House of Filth after I'd heard there was another old witch on the block. Possibly a dragon.

Another bitch who’s been bound to Mistress MJ since the beginning.
You shall stay here and do my bidding.
Until at least Stardate 5928.5! when you will be reevaluated.
ROSES: Greetings Mistress and Infomaniac Bitches!
I is be back from de West Indies.
Miss me?

Good to have you back, Miss Roses.
We thought you’d been kidnapped by a Jumbee.
ANONYMOUSE: Welcome to Infomaniac!
ReplyDeleteI'm a long time lurker. But am too scared to own up to my fascination of your blog! Plus, I don't have anything even remotely witty to say.
So- anonymouse comment only.
Oh, and by the way, I found you via Xl.
Good on you for blaming XL.
There should be more finger-pointing in his general direction.
I shouldn’t worry about not having anything witty to say…
After all, have you seen any of my conversations lately with Beast regarding his itchy bumhole?
VICUS: No, I will not put my name to this squalid collection of puerile filth, you trollop. Let's have some nice (vegan) recipes and photographs of delightful country scenes, like a normal blog, you vile tart.
Neither am I telling people how I found you, lest others make the same mistake.
Are you suggesting that Infomaniac go back to being a knitting blog?
PRINCESS: Oh Hi Bitches...

If by “quietly surfing the “interwebbythingy” looking for nothing at all in particular” you mean Googling “best place for an easy shag”, then yes, I remember when you stumbled in.
HAYWARD: Welcome to Infomaniac!

Oh you sweet talker, you.
Come to mama.
MAGO: I came here while it was knitting-blog via the crocheting class of Mr. Knudsen.
Then things developed.
And you haven’t dropped a stitch since.
I can't recall how I landed here on INFOMANIAC. The therapy must be working.
ReplyDeletePlus: I thought you were a dude until you beat me into submission with your boobies...
I have not yet discovered Infomaniac.
ReplyDeleteThe TARDIS hasn't brought me there yet.
I found mistress MJ via Mr Beastie... I was intrigued... I thought they both owned restaurants and simply swapped recipes about cakes, biscuits and some strange stuff that Mr Beastie boils up in a saucepan.
ReplyDeleteMy first comment was rather rude, but I thought I ought to make an impression.
Sx
MICHAEL GUY: I can't recall how I landed here on INFOMANIAC. The therapy must be working.
ReplyDeletePlus: I thought you were a dude until you beat me into submission with your boobies...
It’s time to renew your prescription of Fukitol.
KAPI: I have not yet discovered Infomaniac.
The TARDIS hasn't brought me there yet.
I hope your TARDIS doesn’t collide with my TARDIS.

Did someone mention cake?
I would avoid the specials at the Infomaniac Bistro on a Friday Miss Scarlet
ReplyDeleteBEAST: I would avoid the specials at the Infomaniac Bistro on a Friday Miss Scarlet
ReplyDeleteAt least the fare is edible at the Infomaniac Bistro.
Unlike the menu at Café C, as follows …
Mr C's Spicey Sausage
(of dubious origin)
Ma Beasties Chickpea Curry
(gastrointestinal suicide)
Beasties Banana Surprise
(self-explanatory).
Damn it's good to be back.
ReplyDeleteI'll open a bottle of red wine in celebration.
It's a rather cheeky Austrailian, as I'm partial to their vintages.
Who wants a glass?
ROSES: Damn it's good to be back.
ReplyDeleteI'll open a bottle of red wine in celebration.
It's a rather cheeky Austrailian, as I'm partial to their vintages.
Who wants a glass?
Speaking of cheeky Australians, I wonder where Princess has wandered off to.
She’ll be back when you crack open that bottle.
Mistress MJ will be back later to check on all of you.
I came storming over here to find out who just was trying to take Old K's cap and the rest of him away from me.
ReplyDeleteand I stayed.
and I still want the cap.
Hello Bitches!
ReplyDeleteThank you Headmistress MJ for allowing us lurkers onto the playground. I've been watching from behind the chain link fence all year wanting to join in the fun too!
Not ready to show my bum to the whole class yet, but have a secret spot behind the janitors shed if anyone wants to play doctor.
Hi Lurkers!
ReplyDeleteI've been doing a bit of lurking here myself lately, but have decided to comment once again in honor of de-lurking day.
So how did I come to Infomaniac?
I honestly don't remember. I think I've been coming here since I was born...
I'm a long-term, part-time lurker. I'm in and out of the closet I guess! And stumbled on MJ via Corrie Canuck for us Canadian Coronation Street fans. And thanks to MJ I now also lurk over at Kaz's site from time-to-time, but it's not just because we wuz bornded on same day.

Old Knudsen’s cap is mine, I tell you. Mine!
RILEY: Welcome to Infomaniac!
It’s good to have another Canuck on board.

Sounds like you need a good bit of foreplay before you’ll put out.
Volunteers from our audience?
LEAH: Hi Lurkers!
I've been doing a bit of lurking here myself lately, but have decided to comment once again in honor of de-lurking day.
So how did I come to Infomaniac?
I honestly don't remember. I think I've been coming here since I was born...
Which would make you four years old.
Roughly the mental age of Beast.
NWTRUNNER: I'm a long-term, part-time lurker. I'm in and out of the closet I guess! And stumbled on MJ via Corrie Canuck for us Canadian Coronation Street fans. And thanks to MJ I now also lurk over at Kaz's site from time-to-time, but it's not just because we wuz bornded on same day.
Today, Piggy (in England) emailed me all the current Coronation Street plotlines.
The bastard! He’s spoiled it for me!
Shall I tell you what’s going on?
As for KAZ, we’re concerned about her as she hasn’t been in touch with anyone for a month.
I'm another lurker who came out of the closet some posts ago.
ReplyDelete(Do I sound like a member of the 'MJholic's anonymous League'?). I remember Leah waved hello, but since I was shy to comment again, i never waved back, so now i have the chance: "Hi Leah!".
I arrived here some months ago via Homo Escapeons and Of Human and Horses, but now i visit here more often. HE has been swallowed by Facebook and Of Human and horses has disappeared off the face of the earth, so now i have no place to go but the Infomaniac Land.
Mistress MJ doesn't bite much? Then why does CyberPete repeat we should be very afraid???
I found the darling, daring and debauched Mistress MJ on Fabulon, traipsing about, stealing the house vodka and making out with various houseboys! I found her witticisms echoed thoughts I dared not speak.
ReplyDeleteAnd then curiosity got the better part of me so I came to take a look. Voyeur that I am, came again and took another look. And another and another...and found I was never bored!
And now the funny part...during my voyeuristic adventures on Infomaniac, to my surprise I found the one and only Boxer, havin' a perve herself!!! How did SHE find MJ? I found HER through Karmic Kitchen, a blog NOTHING like Infomaniac!
I suppose its our common love of booze and boys that brought us here......
LENI: I'm another lurker who came out of the closet some posts ago.

*dreamy sigh*
Did I hear someone mention "A Cheeky Australian"?
ReplyDeleteOh.. it was you Roses... Welcome back.... now pass me that bottle..
Damn, I've never been here before...and I've been found out already. I'm not sure that's fair and I should've been given the chance to linger longer afore I was outed...
ReplyDeleteI'll admit that my commenting has been shameful.
ReplyDeleteBut I have been busy over at my new fabulous site.
I won't plug it here, because that would be too shameful...
Yeah, KAZ - its worriesome. FN is snuggeling and all right. WW is well too.
ReplyDeleteWhere's Knudsen?
Oh and yes, der eine oder andere Stich wär' auch ganz nett ... cheerio ...
me no likey the scary old man :(
ReplyDeleteI found this charming villa whilst doing an online search for "Joan Crawford" "vaseline lens" "rum-flavored dildo". I haven't commented before because I'm rarely sober enough to make sense.
ReplyDeletePRINCESS: Did I hear someone mention "A Cheeky Australian"?
ReplyDeleteOh.. it was you Roses... Welcome back.... now pass me that bottle..
I think Miss Roses has passed out.
NOTA BENE: Welcome to Infomaniac!
Damn, I've never been here before...and I've been found out already. I'm not sure that's fair and I should've been given the chance to linger longer afore I was outed...
There are loads of closet cases here so pull up a chair.
And I see you like Strathisla so we’re friends already.
By the way, which one of your 3 blogs is your main blog?
MAXI: I'll admit that my commenting has been shameful.
But I have been busy over at my new fabulous site.
I won't plug it here, because that would be too shameful...
Yer missus still visits.
Oh g’won. Plug your new site.
MAGO: Yeah, KAZ - its worriesome. FN is snuggeling and all right. WW is well too.
Where's Knudsen?
Oh and yes, der eine oder andere Stich wär' auch ganz nett ... cheerio ...
Knudsen is recuperating from Boobquake.
JELLY MONSTER: me no likey the scary old man :(
Get used to it.
It’s your Maxi further on down the road.
STACIA: I found this charming villa whilst doing an online search for "Joan Crawford" "vaseline lens" "rum-flavored dildo". I haven't commented before because I'm rarely sober enough to make sense.
You’ll fit right in!!!
Funny enough, I discovered your blog ages ago when doing a similar search.
However, I forgot to bookmark it and couldn’t find you again.
This was meant to be, obviously.
STACIA: Welcome to Infomaniac!
ReplyDeleteI got so excited about your visit that I forgot the traditional Infomaniac greeting in my earlier comment to you.
Rum-flavoured dildo?
ReplyDeleteI hope the ladies use the good one to dip.
It comes in hip flaskes.
I can't remember how I first came on here, but it's been a fun ride from the beginning!

*looks at illustration on website*
Apparently I need to have the musculature of Arnold Schwarzenegger to open a bottle of Stroh.
EROS: I can't remember how I first came on here, but it's been a fun ride from the beginning!
The summer of 2007.
I remember it like it was yesterday.
You found me via CyberPete.
My words of greeting to you were, “Oh I see another one of CyberSlut’s little friends has joined the Community of Cunts.”
And we’ve been riding this wave ever since!
Hello, bitches.
ReplyDeleteI haven't passed out. I've come back to IT problems which will have me passing on the red wine and heading straight to Ms Boxer for the emergency bottle of vodka she stashes behind the sofa.
ReplyDeleteI effing hate IT.
Hello, bitches.
ReplyDeleteI started coming here via Fabulon, and I haven't been able to stop.
Your blog is addictive!
REGODDY: Hello, bitches.
ReplyDeleteYou’ve been here once before, haven’t you?
But as we didn’t know you were still lurking about, welcome back!
ROSES: I haven't passed out. I've come back to IT problems which will have me passing on the red wine and heading straight to Ms Boxer for the emergency bottle of vodka she stashes behind the sofa.

Do not diss IT while Mistress MJ’s IT Consultant, XL is in the room.
However, we understand your frustration and have asked Boxer to install the vodka fountain.
MARISHA: Welcome to Infomaniac!
Hello, bitches.
I started coming here via Fabulon, and I haven't been able to stop.
Your blog is addictive!
Thanks to the divine Thombeau of Fabulon/Chateau Thombeau fame, Mistress MJ has met many fab bloggers and is pleased to have you on board.
What part of the world are you in, by the way?
BITCHES: To any of you KAZ fans, she’s published a new post.
ReplyDeleteSounds like she’s in hospital and is taking a break.
It’s been a month since we’ve heard from her so let’s hope she’s on the mend.
Ok, you've been commenting on me for ages every now and again and I used to pop in and lurk occasionally. Unfortunately I'm not in possession of my own equipment at the moment and accidentally re-acquainted myself with your emporium while in the public library. Unusually, they don't have any decency controls, a fact I found out at roughly the same moment I remembered which site I was opening. Ho hum...I'm still a member. Of the library, I mean...
ReplyDeleteJudge Judy sentenced me to 'community service' for dancing nude in the fountain at Lincoln Center. And what community requires more servicing than MJ's infomaniac crew. Et viola - kabuki is here. Plus - who else asks for fotos of my heiney?

ReplyDeleteActually, I haven’t visited your blog in ages…possibly 2 or 3 years.
I do hope you get your tool, er, equipment back soon.
KABUKI: Judge Judy sentenced me to 'community service' for dancing nude in the fountain at Lincoln Center. And what community requires more servicing than MJ's infomaniac crew. Et viola - kabuki is here. Plus - who else asks for fotos of my heiney?
May I suggest allowing the others to fondle your heiney as part of your community service?
I see it as a form of holistic physical therapy treatment.
And don’t let this little incident stop you from dancing naked in fountains.
Follow your bliss!
It's scary in here. That's why I lurk and only leave a comment every few months. Nice call out, MJ.
ReplyDeleteI for oner agree! thats why I never ever comment. Also . No one likes me....
ReplyDeleteAWKWARD: It's scary in here. That's why I lurk and only leave a comment every few months. Nice call out, MJ.
ReplyDeleteI’ve noticed that you’re seasonal.
You wished me a Happy New Year.
Now we’re into the Spring.
Hope to hear from you this Summer!
MUTLEY: I for oner agree! thats why I never ever comment. Also . No one likes me....
Just because your ass has gotten fat doesn’t mean nobody likes you.
Your overweight feet are a bit off-putting though.
Darling, I'm from Long Island, New York (properly pronounced Lawn Guyland, Noo Yawk): home of the Amityville Horror, Amy Fischer (the famous Long Island Lolita), and gay, gay, gay Fire Island.

ReplyDeleteI’d love to hear you say “Buttafuoco”.
You’ve commented twice now.
Once more and you’re an Official Infomaniac Bitch!
