I didn't think the day would come that I'd say it, but it's so true: I whore out, I mean break, for gimmicks.
I realized the validity of this claim when I was planning out this coming Saturday afternoon. Saturday will consist of eating at the now-famous, S'mac (Gimmick: Macaroni and Cheese variations only), followed by dessert at my all-time fave, Rice to Riches (Gimmick: Rice pudding variations only).
This strenuous planning session took place as I was dutifully checking I Hate You, New Guy Who Sits Next to Me* (Gimmick: Girl hates new guy who sits by her. Documents his every annoying move), and realizing that there's a delicious new gimmicky blog on the radar, Not Chosen, Just Posin' (Gimmick: Non-Jewish Guy/Girl just got job at Jewish Magazine. They think he/she is Jewish. He/She is not).
All of this leads me to the above-stated conclusion (I'm a whore) as well as the realization that I need a gimmick. How else am I going to survive in this bloggy-blog world? (Oh God, I can't believe I just said that. I realize that I just lost a few readers).
Decent writing about a mediocre world just doesn't cut it any more. I'll have to start posting pictures of my boobs. We here at Life Regurgitated love boobs. Sigh.
*Did the hated new guy quit or what?

Studies show that pictures of breasts, especially those of the author, actually have a 125% chance of spiking a given blog's traffic.
I'd go for it.
Is it me, or is Not Chosen, Just Posin' the most talked-about blog with two postings ever?
I'm loving NCJP, but I agree - he really needs to get another post up if we're all going to keep linking to him.
Larry and Anonymous: Life Regurgitated vows to show more boobies. Stay tuned.
A Concerned Fan: Shit, linking is one of my new gimmicks. (Well, that and showing my boobs, of course). How else am I going to get a hefty 50 hits/day?
Chris: I agree. I slave over a hot blogger everyday and that bastard has gotten more attention than me.
Jaime: Just checked, there are 3 posts up now. I say we bombard him/her for some more juice!
However, I don't know how long ago these comments were left. My email isn't contacting me the very second one is left like it used to. Death to Gmail!
