Posts Tagged ‘About’

This is a quick note to some recent visitors and some community members. AmyGrindhouse.com seems to have gotten people all twisted and readers of the site appear to either not be aware or have forgotten what this site is.

AmyGrindhouse.com is a humour and satire based site (not really comparable with more straight-laced news sites). Always has been. Always will be.

Everything on it is based in humour and the desire to entertain people.

None of the views expressed are meant to get people’s panties in a bunch, only to entertain.

The posts are written as my opinion and it is one to which I am entitled. I think my homegirl Miss Jia said it best when she said something along the lines of “My opinion does not need your co-sign. It is valid all on its own”. Neither she nor I need approval before expressing views in a forum of our individual creation, of which we each are the administrators.

AG is written only by me and although my opinion, this site was always a Perez Hilton type affair, where all views and the writing style were deliberately the most extreme, most aggressive and most indulgent etc. sides of my personality. For that I make no apologies, nor will I explain further or solicit commentary.

I genuinely care for community members, as I think they will know, but I think some new blood in Team Grindhouse needs a refresher on the site content and policies.

Please note, I will be unapproving/ turning off comments on a few posts where I feel there is no point in adding commentary to the piece itself.

I will be looking at updating my ‘About’ and ‘Terms’ page, my moderation and comment policies, moderating more thoroughly and turning off comments on posts older that either 7 or 14 days (not decided yet) where the dialogue will have gone stale.

As a heads up, new policies will be posted at the beginning of the week.

P.S. Comments for this post are off, but most community members are in contact with me off-site, feel free to message/ DM with any questions. If your comment has gone missing on an old post, it is for the reason above where I say the post, in hindsight, needs no further dialogue in my opinion.

So, I’m being dragged off to this annoying work social thing today and as I didn’t envision being set free from the grips of my 9-5, I future dated some posts for you guys so you didn’t salivate and dehydrate from the lack of available juicy celebrity gossip.

You know how it is, you work stupid hours for a few weeks on end, and have no lunch break to speak of and so of course you TOTALLY wanna go out and ‘party’ with the people you already see more often than your own family – especially when you are so tired you can already barely keep your eyes open. 

It takes about 17 years to slow-bake each links post, so rather than rush one for today and make it look all half-arsed like, here are some of my fave blogs and news sites instead (um, if you’re not on here, it’s not cos I don’t love you, it’s cos you are already getting sexual favours on the side, and frankly, you seem a little fucking greedy wanting links from me too!).

In lieu of a proper link list, which I’ll do tomorrow of course, please check out these sites:

• Agent Bedhead
• Ayyyy
• Busy Bee Blogger
• Celebrity Smack
• Celeb Warship
• Farandulista
• Heckler Spray
• Holy Moly
• I Need My Fix
• Pop Bytes
• Pop Culture Fix
• Pop On The Pop
• Splash News Online
• Ten Gossip
• Top Socialite

Woohoo…

And, once again, my burfday falls on a weekend, when I know you biatches will be most likely in a drunken stupor, slumped outside a club and not at home reading my site, but DUDE, I just reached another tiny blog milestone. It’s 1 February and I am SICKS MUNFS old today [Website – Amy Grindhouse].

SICKS MUNFS… wow, I feel old!

I know it is kind of redundant telling you biatches that I am jail-bait playing hardball with the big boys, but I am so freakin’ excited that I cannot hold back my jubilation. At SICKS MUNFS old, I am now able to spell almost entire sentences without having to spell check every MFing word (spell check is for pussies). I am old enough to vote and drink, and I am looking forward to popping my blogging cherry now that I am finally of age. 

It’s been so much fun blogging for y’all.

I also wanted to take this opportunity to say, once again, a short word about how and why I run this site the way that I do. First, I am a bit on the wild side, but it is deliberate. I run this bitch and am still wallowing in being really rather free to say/ do/ sleep with whomever or whatever I please, and no one can tell me shinznit. On a personal note, my offline life isn’t quite so free and I want to thank you all for showing me some real love and support over these last SICKS MUNFS and making me very happy. I am rarely as chillaxed and happy as I am when I’m socialising with you all!

I always try to be nice to community members, even when I am in a shitty mood. I am trying to grow as a person and writer. I always reply to emails/ comments etc. and I always want to show that I love and genuinely care about/ respect the people who visit this site, so you don’t get the feeling of being dissed and dismissed that I had, years ago, when I tried to reach out to certain people online.

AmyGrindhouseDotCom has now been a sweary, inarticulate, blasphemous blight on your lives, like a hard to shift case of herpes or some bloggin’ renegade playing fast-and-loose with the English language as if its life depended on it, for SICKS whole MUNFS. And frankly, I am wetting my pants in excitement at the prospect of another SICKS MUNFS!!!

Thanks specifically to some of my most active community members (in no particular order so they don’t murder me in my sleep); Emm, FC, Mik, Kelly, Starcasm, Mystery Man, Rain, Chris, Danity, Taylor, I Need My Fix, Busy Bee, Beej, Silvan… and all the other menaces on here. I adore you all. The site would not be what it is without you. Thank you.

I have also been fortunate enough to get some juicy, regular  linkluv from bigger/ older news, humour and lifestyle sites, and for that I am eternally grateful. Thank you to Celeb Warship, Splash and many more, for the links and props (if you’re not listed, I didn’t forget you, I’d just rather thank you individually). You guys all kick arse – Rock On!

HERE’S TO SICKS MORE HAPPY MUNFS!

Happy burfday to me…

Hi y’all just wanted to let you readers know ahead of time about some changes that will be made to the site over the next few weeks [Website – Amy Grindhouse].

ENTRECARD: For reasons of space and being another piece of lardy Java in my sidebar slowing down page-load time, I have to remove the widget starting this weekend (once the last ad runs out) and it’ll stay off for the foreseeable future. I’d like to take this opportunity to thank everybody who ever purchased an advert on from site.

ADVERTISING: From today onward, advertising space on this site will be by premium offer only. (Must stop giving out so many freebies to my bitchin’ cool friends.) An advertising page is being put together and premium advertising details will be available for your perusal in the next week or two. (Note: The current 2 ads in the sidebar are some of my BFFs. Their ads will be up for a few weeks and then no further spaces will be available in this way).

COMMENTER COMPETITION: Today will be my last ever ‘Top Commenter of the Week’ competition. For reasons of time I am no longer able to put these together. Comments are of course still welcome and I encourage them tho

SITE DEVELOPMENT: I like to keep my cards fairly close to my chest on this usually, but I will tell you that I am of course working hard to make this the best site that I can for you. Expect more quality posts and even more celebrity smack talkin’!

PAGES: The Chat Room and Top Comment pages will have to go, to make space for my new ad page, sorry!

Hugs and kisses for now peeps.

Amy xoxo
