blather_published menia jackson@fireandwater.com i would like to take this opportunity to anounce the real world publication of blather. here you have created a beautiful place, and we want to bring it to the world. you can check out the plans in more detail athe Harpercollins website fireandwater.com. keep writing, among you there are stars of the future. 010518 ... Anaesthetic Publish and be damned. 010518 ... star of the future My testicles are about to explode! 010518 ... yoink don't publish this. yoink! 010518 ... On behalf of the blather non-community Yeah, good gag. Unless you're serious in which case you can talk to my lawyers arsehole. 010518 ... recovering addict put up a link and leave us alone 010518 ... god i want my name first in the credits. 010518 ... god i got a cat named tonya. 010518 ... tonya Meow. 010518 ... meniajackson@fireandwater.com you will all be credited, once me have managed to verify who you are in the real world, and with that verification comes royalties on all work attributable to you. our lawyers have informed us that the only entries anavailable for publication are those already marked copyright in the text, and for those we will have to leave them out or seek prior permission. That is british copyright law, the creators of course will get their share of royalties. please don't make a fuss over this, it is my pet project, and we could all make alot of money from the christmas gift book market, ther are also avenues open in spirituality/self help areas. i urge you to hang tight until you are all contacted in turn. 010519 ... yoink i don't want this published, so i guess i have to put (c)2001 after every entry, aye? (c)2001 010519 ... flo publish any of my bits and i'll sue you personally. i've got the funds to back it up and i think i'd have a pretty good case. p.s. pet project my arse 010519 ... recovering addict this is ridiculous 010519 ... birdmad i would have to assume that we are all covered under any of the copyrights in place by any of the newdream. members or by newdream.net as an entity i think there is a copyright marker at the bottom of the blather face page, by rights, i think that it covers all content within personally i think you'd better ask sage 010519 ... KinkyWinky in this place, i don't think we're meant to be read by a larger world, a paying audience. the beauty of this place is in finding it by accident typing in a word on a search engine and having half of the results come back as blather entries and being so unable to resist the curiosity deliberately exposing this place to the world at large and the inevitable outcome would be like building a giant strip mall over the last piece of pristine earth like having your favourite little corner cafe bought out one day and built over with a McDonalds like having your favorite S&M club bought out by Disney and having them try in vain to keep things the way they were inspite of the increasingly vanilla crowd this is the wrack and ruin you will cause us if you intend to carry this out 010519 ... flo and just think how crowded its gonna get around here. everybody will ship out, and all we'll be left with is the reunion. see blather_reunion 010520 ... Sol now, being curious about this I decided to go to the aforementioned webside (see:fireandwater.com) and finding no trace whatsoever of the promised information decided to call a halt o this clear bullshit. whoever you are its pretty clear noone wants this, come up with something more funny 010520 ... meniajackson@fireandwater.com i hit myself with cheese 010520 ... nocturnal I'm assuming this is a joke. I mean, it just can't be real. but, on the off chance that it is, I for one will absolutely NEVER come back here if it gets published. the privacy and the anonymity are what make blather what it is. well, the company ain't all bad either. 010520 ... DannyH Sent email to the imaginary menia. Came back undeliverable. Someone's having fun. Shook us up a bit didn't it? I guess you never know how much you love something til you think you see it being taken away before your eyes. Our response shows something though doesn't it? 010520 ... nocturnal yes, I would say it shows something...but what exactly that something is, I'm not quite sure. 010520 ... dannyH We all repressed our guilty desire for fame in the belief we had something more valuable. 010520 ... dannyH or maybe we were all shit scared at the thought of being discovered. 010520 ... nocturnal neither of those is true for me. I just like that almost no one knows about blather. I refuse to tell any of my friends about it because, although I love them all dearly, this is kind of my escape from them and from everything in my real life. I'm quite a different person outside of the blather realm. 010520 ... dannyH I kno what you mean. I emailed a link to Flo some time ago. We both love this place but we both wish it was secret from each other. Nowadays we intentionally ignore each other here, but I know that he'll read this and know what I mean which is uncomfortably beautiful. 010520 ... MollyGoLightly i think this is an interesting idea. let's not be people who always say no. 010521 ... flo thankyou for the touching sentiments dan it makes me want to come clean and admit that this was all my doing. boooo and hissss if you want but i still think that it was funny and it made us think about blather, and realise how much we love it. 010521 ... unhinged i do have secrets among these pages...secrets that i'm not sure i ever want a certain person to read. i kept my secrets somewhere else and they were found out...damn that live_journal ; which was my own fault i suppose. but this place...this was my secret box. 010521 ... yoink it's like confiding in the voices in your head they are always there, ready to listen, react, respond, keep you in line 010521 ... voices touch me there 010521 ... please *** So, if the random dark soft fuzzy kitty booze fart creep lip yank hole sliding yawn crap kippers_and_ice_cream is going to be sold off to the creativity starved mass media under the paper thin ruse that "the world deserves a peek at your beautiful minds", well then I have a couple of questions. If you can't get in touch with someone, can you use their blathidge anyway, or do you have to just leave it alone? Then, once the billions of over stimulated trend suckers find out about this place and TRAMPLE IT TO DEATH out of idle curiosity or a desperate need to be something they aren't, then what the fuck are WE going to do then? don't sell us to the man ... 010612 ... just another 888 for_those_with-more_to_say 999 maybe we can start a new subject? pet_project_my_arse ? stupid_ways_to_ruin_blather ? maybe I'm just bitter - I don't have a bunch of great thoughts that I got for free and I can cash in on and steal all the glory and pry the lid off and send the good blather people scurrying away, no longer united buy insomia, creativity, and words. blather fan 010612 ... black-dyed gel product This was an interesting way to make me think about how I use/abuse blather. If those I know were to discover what I say here, then I'd have to do a lot of explaining. This little prank made me contemplate what I would do and what I would say if those I write about were to read these things. I guess, in an odd way, thanks for pulling this prank. It made me examine my mind more closely for a moment, whatever that may mean. 010612 ... User24 to revive an ancient topic; a blather book would be great, but only if it was distributed exclusively to blatherskites. I hate the idea of one of friends running up to me and saying, "hey! check out this book, it's really cool.". That would probally cause a nervous breakdown, me worrying if they found out who User24 was. 030616 ... Freak This page literally made me cry. This is such a cruel joke. Blather should never be published. The best part about Blather is that you just happened to stumble upon it one day and it ended up being your greatest secret love. I think that blather means more to the people who stumbled onto it alone instead of it being recommended. Thats why I keep it a secret. 030616 ... User24 yeah, that's true, like enlightenment, you have to find it yourself. 030617 ... TK did this ever come into reality? 030913 ... EYEDREAM DON'T YOU DARE MAKE PEOPLE PAY FOR BLATHER. THIS IS REPULSIVE DISGUSTING HORRID NASTY GROSS AWFUL AND NIGHTMARISH. THIS IS SICK. SICK SICK SICK. BLATHER IS FOR THE DREAMERS THE DREAMERS THE DREAMERS THE DREAMERS, IT WAS MADE BY THE DREAMERS THE DREAMERS THE DREAMERS THE DREAMERS AND IT WILL ONLY BE LOVED BY THE DREAMERS THE DREAMERS THE DREAMERS THE DREAMERS. 030913 ... eyedream Oh yeah...and you called us the stars of the future? We are the stars of now without being published. Don't insult us. 030913 ... the cheer-up kid Read whole strand. Fall off high horse. learn to laugh at self. 030914 ... eyedream Have read whole strand. If it's any consolation my dear, I was not angry. Which is to say, I wasn't angry at this idea. I was angry when I wrote it, but it wasn't connected to Blather. rides a miniature pony, not a high horse 030914 ... nom we_publish 060210 ... flo Hah hahahahahaaaaah This popped up unexpectedly, i still think that it was funny. All of the plumped up chests and self important nonsense it stirred up are part of the rason i rarely come here anymore. 081002 ... someone you know well that's a shame. we all miss your narrow-mindedness. 081002 ... . how_to_lose_friends_and_alienate_people is now a movie. 081002 ... . hrm, upon clicking the_big_link i was shocked to discover that it was already a book beforehand. i'd thought it unique to blather. 081002 what's it to you? who go blather from
