Whatever happened to Dooce? She used to be funny. I don't know... I'm wrestling with taking her off my recommended blogs. I'm sure she'll get the message (given my readership of one). Is this what success does? Ironically kills your ability to write anything anyone would actually want to read? It's very odd to me. There are fairly obscure blogs that you actually look forward to reading (like Dooce used to be), and then they start getting a cult following and word spreads and readership grows...BAM! You're on the Today Show. You have, on average, over 100 comments a day on any given post, and you have this loyal following that's reading what? When you last peed? Actually, back in the day, Dooce could have made that funny. Unfortunately, I don't think she writes about peeing any more.
Maybe it's because it's an election year. It makes everyone rabid, although certain individuals are perpetually rabid.
PS: I read that trashing another blog writer increases your readership.
PSS: These are the 3:12 a.m. ramblings of a woman that is going to have to get up to work in a little over an hour to transcribe what might possibly be your permanent medical record. Be afraid. Be very afraid.
PSSS: (Is there such a thing? I just like PSing) This is actually a current post, as in today's date, as in 10/03, but I'm predating it so I don't screw up my backlogged posting system. At what point does this no longer make any sense?

I've noticed the same thing - what's happened to good ol' funny Dooce? I thought it was just me, but lately nothing of hers seems to make me laugh as it used to
PS. I've read that trashing a blog increases readership too. ;)
