I think we all know what I am going to do: Bitch, moan and whine about the idiocy of blogs, right? How people are so bloody vain as to think others care about their daily lives and the lack of privacy their lives will get from such.

That is my own personal website. I would be a total fucking hypocrite if I did say the above, but I do not, as that site could be considered a blog despite it not being about my daily life.
Fancy word up there in bold: Hypocrite, nice word isn't it, quite a pleasure to be called one, right?
Well, you are incorrect. A hypocrite, in the easiest terms to understand, is a person who says something is bad or wrong, and they do it anyway. Say it with me now: H-Y-P-O-C-R-I-T-E. HYPOCRITE. Like a drug addict who says drugs are bad for you, or a homosexual Republican, those are hypocritical people, and I would be if I said all blogs are awful.
Which brings me on to why this article is being written in the first place. The main point of this article is about blogs and THIS site and club, not for any other one. From a practical standpoint, it is bad for other people who would like to share their articles, since blogs are usually daily or weekly, and chances are most people will find the article if it is on the main page, which blogs would prevent. That, my dear friends, is called spamming.
And that is merely the half of it, my friends, the usual problems with blogs are quite obvious, the vanity and privacy issues are too simple to even speak of at this point.
Now, I could just end it here, but since I love patronising all of you, it is time for a bit of a grammatical lesson.
Your Mother Should Have Told You That You're stupid.
Your and you're are two different words meaning two different things despite being homophones. Your is a possessive. For example: Your mother refers to the mother of you. You're is a contraction meaning You are, so when saying You're mother, you are referring the person you are talking to as a mother. A simple reason why I despise contractions.
You Do Not Know Your Alphabetical U.
Very simple thing, this is: You is a complete word. U is a letter in the Latin Alphabet. Do not substitute the two, I do not care what you say to justify it. The following are some I have heard, except done in proper grammar:
U is easier to type than you.
No, it is not. Three letters versus one is not anything important unless you are the age of the number of letters in question, in that case, if you cannot type faster than 3 words per minute, you should not type at all.
That's the cool way to spell it.
Good grammar is cool, not poor literacy. Your opinion sucks.
I don't care.
I do, so fuck off my Internet and go back to the first term.
And don't anyone dare use Ur to mean either Your or you're. Ur was a city-state in Sumer, Mesopotamia.
It's not difficult to be smart, people.
They Tossed Their Illiterates Into The Magma Over There Where They're Melting.
Let me explain simply so I do not confuse you all:
Their: Refers to ownership from a group of people. Their apples are rotting.
There: Refers to a place not exactly specific. The apple over there.
They're: A contraction of they and are, referring to the state of a group of people.
They're idiots. OR They are idiots.
Simple words give simple answers. It isn't hard to learn this stuff, people. I would include more, but that is for another time, folks. Point is, let us take what we now know into blogs.
A blog's whole point in the eye of the author is stimulate and make the reader understand and feel emotion towards their written work, but if the work is done in a poor grammar, it deteriorates the entire experience.
