Thanks to all the local bloggers for the comments regarding the Roast of Life As a Single Woman. Truth is, I am terribly disappointed that Life As a Single Woman couldn't hold the game. I figured that someone who was portraying herself as confident as she was, could handle it. She's weak, weak, weak if she discontinues her blog. It means I won. I don't know about her stats, but the ratings we must have logged together have to be astronomical. I have disrespected the content of her blog ever since she became single, but thought that she could give me a run for my money and prove me wrong if given the chance. Obviously, I gave her too much credit, because I still don't respect her blog. I totally agree with how she ended her sappy-I'm-such-a-victim speech -- "A blog is not the sole picture of who a person is- it's an expression of a piece of who they are." I get that, but when you post that type of content with those types of pictures, you're portraying sex, UNLESS that above statement preceeds the content on your blog. In the name of sportsmanship, I hope that Life As a Single Woman continues her blog, either with a clarifying statement that "this blog is a PIECE of who I am," or that she searches for nice men and not men who only want her for her jiggly parts.
DIDN'T YOU KNOW?
At an undisclosed time and date, another blog will be roasted in the name of fun.

SPC I wouldn't call it winning, when someone makes a decision not to play your childish games. I for one have no time for kid's play.
I am a confident woman who enjoys sex. I chose to write about it. However your banter is not unlike that of women who hang out in bars. You feel threatened by a secure, successful, and sexual woman. Go figure! Because you can't compete you attack.
Notice the only people bitching here are women....perhaps that should be a clue.
As for my photos, don't you attend the KC Blog meetings - hmmm perhaps it's time to continue this banter in person..let me know if you are up for it - I personally have nothing to hide.
Sex is a piece of who I am....the piece I choose to write about..the piece you choose to attack.
I don't need the acceptance of you or your pathetic posters who for one can't type or post under the name "anonymous" because they don't have the balls to reveal who they are.
You dare not post a photo of yourself, why? Your counterpart writes about relationships and hosts singles events, but yet can't even keep her own relationship together.
Threatened by any of you? I think not. Don't humor yourselves.
Now go ahead and respond if you choose and yes I used your blog to respond...because that seems to be the location of this battleground.
Unlike you tonight I have a date, so you little kids have fun. I'm sure I've given you lots to comment about.
You are such a cuntastic bitch. You live in such an ugly world. One where women who dislike you do so out of jealousy. Please tell me you don't really believe that? For one who tries so hard to to come off so worldy your words make you sound nothing less than ignorant. Women find you obnoxious because...YOU'RE OBNOXIOUS. Men call you a slut because you write yourself as such.
You took your blog down because you're a weak, cowardly, insecure chick. You know...the kind of woman you lambaste and chastise in EVERY FUCKING POST. You talk about people hiding behind anonymous comments? You wrote a post about me then took it down. And you now what? I wish you had left it up so that my readers (you see, mine are real and probably quadruple the size of yours) could launch their own vitrol against you and expose you for the hatefeul, spiteful loser that you are. But you knew that's excatly what would happen, so you went and hid and cried "poor me." Funny, you didn't ONCE come to my blog and even try to rail on me. Gutless. Coward. Phony. Hypocrite. Yeah, takes real guts to post about new names for your vagina. How revealing. How brave.
Why are men and dates and your sloppy sex life the only thing you use to build yourself up? I guess, in your mind, THAT'S what makes a woman worthy. Why do you automatically go to the "she hates me cuz I'm beautiful" place? I'll tell you why. Because you are a nobody. With no men, no love, no life. You have and are NOTHING. And that just kills you. So what do you do? You create a blog where you FINALLY get to be that savvy, bawdy broad you so desperately want to be. And before you dare even try to pull the jealousy thing on me keep something in mind. I have what youw ant. I have the relationship, I have the attention, I have the readers, I have the sex life. You? are a wannabe.
You make these broad generalizations about women, then get all teary eyed when - finally -someone calls you out on it. So you keep writing that big, important book, Jackie Collins. Fiction seems to be what you do best.
Well...sexandmovie...and SPC...I am an avid reader of your blogs...and really enjoy them. I also took part in roasting the single woman. However, I really want to encourage you guys to remember that the person on the other side..reading this (Laura) is a person too...and has feelings and emotions. Thats the only thing about blogs that I do not like...and that is that it gives you a certain power that comes from being able to hurt someone anonymously.
Damn....and here we have the stereotype that the fairer sex is gentler!
Women who go around calling other women "fat miserable bitches" solely because they post something contradictory on her blog do not merit compassion. So, I DO hope when you write to us that we should consider Laura's feelings before we speak, that you also say the same thing to her. Laura's insistence on defending her "sexuality" and her" beauty" shows that she's is oblivious to the fact that NO ONE is questioning her sexuality or criticizing her because of it. We'e criticizing her because she - frequently - makes comments and asserted opinions that are based solely on her own personal feelings and not facts. As well as the fact that she has - on numerous occassionas - made arguments very, very personal rather than answering or responding to the critique at hand. In other words, she fights dirty. So if she's going to take such routes when trying to discredit someone purely because they don't like or agree with her then she opens herself up to the same treatment.
I'm a little disappointed I never got to read her blog before she took it down. Since my sex life is deader than Keifer Sutherland's acting career, I'm always up for a juicy booty story or two. The last sex story I read was some freak writing a haiku about getting a nooner at 10 AM. I forget where I read that trash but it got me harder than Calculus.

Bring it on, b*tch. Bring it on. :)

Sexandmovie...you are right in what you have said. I do have to consider the fact that I did not follow Laura's blog much..and I certainly would not know if she snubbed people on there...like you say she did. So may be you are right then..and she had this coming! Who knows...it is difficult for me to tell. I apologize for any premature rendering of my thoughts.
Moxie could have not said it better, and wait hang on a minute, why does Laura deserve to have her feelings protected when in actuality she was the one that goes around attacking people more specifically women, and attacking them at the lowest possible level, their appearances. How mature is that Laura? And you know what bragging does not mean jack. People who do have it all do not have to run out there and yell and shove it in everyone's face, again she will never get the point of OUR arguments, she thinks we are attacking her personally when in actuallity we are simply stating an argument based on her presumptions, assumptions and baseless statements. She does not know how to support any of her "facts" with much valid points. All she does is use her own personal opinions and make those the facts of life, she cannot differentiate between the two. Not to mention she does what no woman should do but belittle women who SHE thinks have no beauty, brains and what she calls a sex life. Does that make a woman whole? Personality, character and brains do not weigh in at all? Apparently in Laura's world thats how it works. Sad isn't it. The ignorance that is shown. Laura if you really had any sort of confidence, balls and wit you would have left your site up as is and either fought back or ignored the lot of us, stand up for yourself because sweetheart, you really make it seem like you are being a coward by putting on the victim show here.
Cheryl..I agree with you too...it is never in the best form to criticize anyone...espcially without valid examination...and in the process comprising the inherent dignity and respect that each individual deserves.
It's getting rough in here. I was almost starting to feel bad for Laura, but then I remembered how all of this got started. As she has done in the past, Laura responded to criticism of her blog content with a mean-spirited, sophomoric, personal attack. Then when a few people fired back, she took her ball and went home. It's amazing how someone who insults and belittles people regularly in her blog could be so thin-skinned and cowardly.
Laura, your blog was horrible. It was a joke. Some might even call it a pretentious, narcissistic, grammatically-challenged embarrassment. The postings were either illogical or plagiarized. But if you're going to post your life on the internet, then you have to be ready for occasional criticism. But - and this is an important point - it was only criticism of your blog content. To come back immediately and call your critics fat, ugly women who need to get laid is going to get you labeled a bitch. And a really poor debater.
I can't believe she took it down. I can't! Imagine the traffic she received today! Look at the exponential growth of involvement on her blog (before it disappeared) and SPC's blog in the last 24 hours. This could have become the greatest KCblogger rival in history.
We were enthralled. Love her or hate her…
We had our villain aka Laura.
We had superficial haiku-writing Plaza chick. (Was it true marketing genius or did she stumble upon this purely out of the irresistible urge to roast our villain?)
We had the vicious, take-no-prisoners, uninhibited, clever and creative sexandmoxie creating innovative phrases like cuntastic bitch.
We had Laura’s defender, self-proclaimed “good-looking 36-year old man” insisting that we are all fat miserable women that could only get laid on nickel draw night at the local pub. Although, he retracted his comment quickly and totally hit on Katie once he discovered she was hot.
We had our investigative Katie (above referenced hot girl)
We have our favorite comedian, Bradley (also trying to get in on some of the make-out action)
We have Cheryl. We have John. We have Tammy. We have too many to mention… all banding together to participate in this (dare I say) DRAMA!
The wasted potential is enormous. We could have had a Pitch cover story. We could have made Kcblogger history. But alas, our historic moment has been snuffed out before it even had a chance to blossom. I’m truly distraught and troubled by this loss. How could our villain (and marketing expert) fail to recognize a marketing opportunity of such enormity? How could she let this overwhelming opportunity for blogger fame slip through her fingers?
I have just one thing to say. When you do your next blog roast, I hope you choose mine!
SPC, your blog was bookmarked in my daily read folder for three whole days. Now I'm removing it. This whole episode was really disturbing.
Wow ...
I'll be the first to admit that when ambitionbox.com changed its focus to sex, I lost interest in reading. Well, to be honest, "lost interest" isn't really accurate -- frankly, the posts were making me a little uncomfortable and yes, I did find some of them a bit crude. To be honest, I can't really say why. Whatever the reason, though, I'm sure it was down to MY issues, not Laura's, and it would never have occurred to me to rip into a woman I don't even know just because I didn't like what she was writing on her own personal web space.
Doesn't she have the right to explore her own thoughts or intersts or fantasies or whatever in her own way?
I'm not choosing sides here, nor am I trying to provoke anyone, I guess I just don't understand why people can't live and let live?
When I stumble across something that offends or annoys or even just bores me, I move on. Hit the back button. Change channels. Switch stations.
Having said that; you, of course, have the right you write what YOU want here on your webpage, too. It's just that your (seemingly unprovoked) attack seems so petty, so negative. What was the point of it?
Reecie
Wow, Joe Miller, I think I am going to have to agree with you on this one. I mean talk about no class..it sounds like everyone around here has way too much time on their hands since you are all obsessed with putting down a chick who obviously doesnt feel very good about herself. I mean, what goes around comes around, so I guess she got hers. Wonder when you all will get roasted? I suddenly feel like I'm back in high school....

Reecie, Siren & Joe Miller; But that is exactly our point, everyone is free to express their opinions, Laura thought otherwise, she forced fed readers her opinions and did not care to listen to what others who disagreed with her said. That is what we are trying to bring across with this "roasting". Everyone deserves a right to their own opinion. The same with you guys and your right to agree or disagree with what we are saying. Laura does not know how to agree to disagree!!
Hi, I was just blog surfing and found you! If you are interested, go see my cardioglide related site. It isnt anything special but you may still find something of interest.
Hey guys...
SPC, I sort of have to agree with Reecie here (and it's not just because she's blogged about El Paso either). While I think your original post is kind of funny, the comments (while still hilarious) quickly deteriorated into a female version of a pissing contest. Of course, once you started the ball rolling there wasn't much you could do other than censor your commentors... I guess it's just a think of where the ball might end up rolling before you kick it.
It does seem that you, Laura, SexandMovie and Cheryl all do have some sort of connection/past beyond just these posts though so I guess it isn't fair for us to sit on the sidelines and say you should of done this or should have done that.
Oh for God's sake........
Joe, Siren Reecie...(if these are even real) From the sounds of it you never read Laura's blog...EVER. There isn't one mention of how Laura always would attack people if they dared disagree with her. If a woman diagreed with her she was a fat bitter bitch. If a guy disagreed with her he was a loser who never gets laid and is threatened by her sexuality. Sure, she has every right to say whatever she wants. It wasn't the content people (at least me) was offended by. It was the nasty attitude and hypocrisy that she showed. When she wrote her post about SPC, her openign line was how some "twenty something girl" wrote something about her. Not "another blogger" not "SPC"..."some twenty somethign girl." Which was a telling sign of how resentful of younger women she truly was. She, miss "I am so fabulous you wish you could be me" was exactly the type of woman that she criticixed and made fun of. In my book? That's hypocrisy. It was her dismissive, "you're so fucking stupid/bitter/fat/lame" argument she used EVERY TIME someone disagreed with her that was foul. You can't call yourself a "strong" woman who "doesn't care what people think", turn around and just eviscerate people for no other reason than they dare share their opinion and expect to gain respect.
Impressive blog; I'll be sure to come back
I have a one way links site and blog

circle jerk stories Maniac,

Seriously guys... SEXANDMOXIE not MOVIE... jeez, get a dictionary. Suprised she hasn't corrected you time and time again, I'm annoyed and I'm an innocent bystander.
Who do you think did the most damage to Laura's defense?
Did you read Laura's initial response? I think it's obvious that Laura did the most damage attempting to defend herself (it wasn't a defense at all, simply a juvenile attack on her perceived attackers).
Whenever Laura pissed off one of her former friends by insulting them in her blog, her stock response was - if you don't like my blog, don't read it. So there's your answer Laura - if you don't like SPC, Moxie and all the other blogs critiquing your blog, just don't read them. We all make choices daily. We are responsible for our own choices. Try to remember that.
I want to make it clear that I LOVE bloggers. The intent of the roast was to roast the CONTENT OF THE BLOG and NOT THE PERSON. I'm sure Laura is witty, talented, successful, and lovely in person. She had photos on the blog, so of course they were fair game. I will post some roasting rules on my site this evening.
This is the word of The Superficial Plaza Chick
SPC -- Too bad Laura took her blog down, so people can stop assuming that this was all about a cat fight when in actuality the fact that we were simply giving our opinion on her BLOG CONTENT and as you said it did include pictures of herself, we made comments based on said pictures. Her blatant disregard for a FAIR DEBATE and HER making it into a personal attack now can only be shown by HER OWN COMMENTARY on YOUR BLOG as the coward that she is, she tucked tail and ran for the hills.
When one puts a blog on the web, is it not expected that not everyone will like said blog, hence our right to express our opinions; whatever happen to the right to agree to disagree or fair play in debate.
Keep it up SPC!!
cheryl you are cuntastic
Wow...as a local blogger who just recently started reading SPC, I'm left speechless by this whole exchange, beginning with the original roast post. Just count me as a second to the sentiments already left by (the very real and consistently excellent, btw) Joe and Reecie.
Heidi
Wow JC/L learnt a new word today!! Good for you!! I'm impressed at your attempt to broaden your vocab.
Cuntastic IS a fabulous word, I must say.
