tIoP has been Blog-Blocked
It is not as if the Idea of Progress has been posting with any of the frequency of the past, but a recent event has disrupted even this, the fragile regularity of tIoP’s posts.
The Idea of Progress was framed.
Google was lead to believe that tIoP was a spam blog.
Google claims that this was the result of a false positive from their little helper robots, who apparently scour the blogosphere in search of crime, sort of like the Transformers, but without the whole transforming or crappy Michael Bay remakes.
tIoP could not access my account, tIoP could not post a lovely entry about common courtesy in movie theaters that he had been composing in his head all day.
The Idea of Progress doesn’t buy that it was a random problem. tIoP knows that someone is trying to put an end to the blog that has not won the Nobel Peace Prize nor the Pulitzer (but did win Sexiest Man Alive), but has nonetheless changed the face of humanity as we now know it.
There is someone out there with his fingerprints all over this. And tIoP is unafraid to air out his suspicions– this madman must be stopped for all that is good and pure in this world, for this soon to be named villain is a threat to our way of life and our very existence. We must draw a line in the sand!
We must rally against…McGone.
Yes, I’ve said it. I hold the International House of Blogcakes responsible for this. It has McGone’s fingerprints all over it.
And I will have my vengeance.




And I will have my vengeance.
And I will have my lawyers review this post. You got nuthin’, ya hear me!
Maybe Google are just anti-progress! You were threatening their ratings with your brand of fabulous and they were teaching you a lesson. Yup. That might be it.
Or yeah McGone might have framed your ass, that’s a much better story.
P, give it up. We like you, but we like him more.
Hugs!
ooooh creepy- you’ve got someone after you!!
I didn’t even pay Red to say that!
Red’s comment made me say ouch out loud.
I am totally stealing that idea the next time I get writer’s block…in 2010.
This happened to me in January! It was hellacious!
I suggest a dance-off. Nothing solves a disagreement faster than bustin’ a move.
How did you get your blog back?
Do the spam robots that closed your blog ever have sex? Because if they do, I’d like to know.
