The comment above was removed because it contained Clink's real name. I'm not going to out her on here, guys, so please don't do that. I'm reposting it with that info removed.

team kat all the way to heyday!!
haha.

ok, i admit i read clink and enjoy it but because she's soo narcissistic and super insecure and lives in a world that seems too good to be true...just look at her posts (it's all about money- i paid $500 for concert tickets, we flew to paris after only 4 months of dating etc etc., look at my shiny new ring)...

you'd think that since you just got engaged she'd be all "OMG OMG I"M ENGAGED YOU"RE ENGAGED WE"RE BOTH ENGAGED for real!!!"
but instead, she hates.

not cool.

i'll still read her blog b/c it's amusing and esp. amusing is that she disabled comments on her last post (which reads: my life is NOT perfect, yet she never gives one example or instance of that- indeed it IS perfect clink and there's nothing wrong with that, but when you and M divorce and he takes you to the cleaners b/c your dad is a millionaire it will be ugly).

ps- her name is [redacted].

and kat- you're hilarious. i don't think you did anything wrong, you're just expressing your opinion and you even apologized.

cheers

Clink is like those girls that compete on the Bachelor. Really pretty and well-maintained, not necessarily dumb but definitely not intelligent and BORING.

What's the problem? It's totally Team Clink on her page.

Seriously vomit-inducing cheerleading. If one can vomit unicorns and rainbows...

2008-01-31T01:22:00.000+01:00

I don't like that this has turned into some sort of Team Clink v.s.Team Kat. You wrote something that hurt her feelings. Maybe she's oversensitive, maybe she overreacted but does it really matter? You hurt her feelings. That is that.

It seems that not everyone here likes Clink's blog. I personally LOVE it. It is my favorite blog. Sure her life is nothing like mine, but I love reading about it and so do MANY other people.

I think it's okay to blog about how you are actually feeling and stuff, just leave other people out of it.

2008-01-31T00:33:00.000+01:00

kat, those are adorable. but not technically bridesmaid dresses. meaning, if you have a large bridal party, good luck finding ten of those (ten of anything, really) in ten different sizes. i agree that pink and brown is fugly.

2008-01-30T22:01:00.000+01:00

I'm just shocked she's doing pink and brown. Did that hit its wedding-color-schme apex in 2003? For all her "fabulous young gal in the city" bluster, that's decidedly tired.

2008-01-30T20:15:00.000+01:00

Wait, is there really someone in the world who thinks that you can't find a fantastic bridesmaid dress for under THREE HUNDRED DOLLARS???? That hurts my head. We clearly are living in different worlds, Anonymous person.

Anyway, I think Clink has a great blog and I enjoy commenting from time to time. With that said, I'm glad I got to the bottom of this "blog war" nonsense because it introduced me to your blog which I love!

I hope this all blows over soon though, I'm pretty tired of hearing about the whole thing.

2008-01-30T16:29:00.000+01:00

Clink is starting to scare me. This is why "nice people" freak me out...because chances are, they're repressing their inner bitch.

See her latest post. What does this mean: "My friends would totally help me hide the body." Anyone heard from Kat lately?

2008-01-30T05:46:00.000+01:00

you're fucking brilliant.

and i think it's pretty damn apparent that you're good-hearted. but hey, i'm just a girl who'd rather be friends with the girl who can make me laugh so hard that a raisin comes out of my nose rather than the girl who all we could think of to say about her was that she was "nice." so maybe that makes me one of the bad guys too.

the last comment you left with the links to the dresses? i'm still laughing. your sense of humor is pretty much making me wet. wait - too much for a first comment?

2008-01-30T02:06:00.000+01:00

i wrote the anon 1:44 post yesterday, but not the one before it. someone seems to have conflated the two. the reason i brought up donating the dresses is not because i want to be congratulated for my charitable works but because most people don't know that you can get money back via your taxes by doing this. you can deduct the full value of the dress. and trust me, i'm not nearly selfless enough to go through the pain in the ass of boxing up and shipping dresses to one of these organizations unless i'm getting cash back for it.

i still want to know where you find bridesmaid dresses under say $250 that aren't uncomfortable or ugly. until someone sends a link i wont believe that they exist.

2008-01-30T00:31:00.000+01:00

I haven't checked in on Clink since the engagement because I couldn't take another post of "OMG I love The Boy...OMG He's totes cheating on me!" now with super-strength.

I enjoy her writing but the self-destructive trainwreck of not trusting someone was too much.

Plus, as a woman, I really find such obsession with MUST GET ENGAGED/MARRIED OR AM BIG LOSER appalling. Relax, sweetie. Life is short -- you don't have to rush the good stuff.

Oh and the post you can find by googling: clinkny "me me me me" - actually this might have been when the bloom was off the rose for me. She doesn't trust ANY other women and I find it hilarious that she didn't get that maybe... just maybe... other people DON'T want to discuss how great her relationship is and how sad single people are. I think there was maybe one person who didn't champion her and wrote something like, "Wait... you think your roommate is narcissistic because she didn't want to talk about you?"

Anyway, congrats! I'm glad I chose today to see if Clink's engagement was off yet!

this drama is just so fun to read about. seriously. thank you.

and @becky? I think kat is from new york. as am i. Still does not make a difference. $300 is way to much.

Congratulations on being engaged! And thanks for providing hilarious reading material to pass the time at work.

2008-01-29T21:48:00.000+01:00

I'm another new reader that found you after a bit of googling. I like your blog a lot, and I don't think you were especially mean, but I have to agree with whoever said that she seemed truly hurt by what you said. And sometimes it doesn't matter if you didn't mean to be mean. It matters how someone takes what you've said.

Anyway, the reason I actually wanted to comment was that it might be possible that part of the reason it is so hard to identify with some of clink's writing is because she lives in NYC. $300 here in MN is a hell of a lot more money than it is in New York. And so to me, asking someone to drop that kind of cash on a dress (whether or not you can donate it later) would be way out of line. But maybe in New York it's not??

Obviously I haven't read all of your readers' or your blog enough to know where you are all from to know if that would apply to you too, but it's something to consider. Although, honestly, I don't think I'd be able to ask someone to pay $300 for a dress even if I lived in New York.

Sorry for the book of a comment...

2008-01-29T20:49:00.000+01:00

Am I so fucking glad I found you/your blog? Um, YES.

You're fantastic. I'd like to buy you a drink regarding this entire situation and then laugh hysterically about it. Particularly how you added the "yes, this is it" to the top of your October post. I wish I could not do any work today and just read through your archives. Is this not acceptable and professional behavior?

2008-01-29T20:04:00.000+01:00

I have been an avid reader of Clink's blog for a while, but I think I read it like you do...more out of fascination than real interest in her life. I can relate to her about as much as I can relate to girls on "The Hills." And I can't stand reading comments on her posts anymore...she has such a ridiculous number of devoted readers who ooh and aww over everything she writes - it makes me sick! Especially when she writes about her eating issues and everyone is all, "I can totally relate!" That really scares me.

Anyway, I never read your blog before googling to find it after reading Clink's post, but I'm glad I found it. My initital reaction to this whole thing was just to laugh. :)

2008-01-29T05:06:00.000+01:00

I've been reading Clink's blog for YEARS now (seriously, since she was a nobody who happened to comment on my friend's blog), so obviously I'm a fan of her writing (if not her sycophantic fans), but I just wanted to say that I'm really happy I "discovered" your blog (terrible circumstances though they were, haha.) Your writing is hilarious.

I honestly don't see what the big deal is. Criticism comes with the territory of being a well-known blogger. I'd rather someone cared enough about something I've written to rant about it than fade into obscurity.

Oh well. Congrats on your engagement and, for what it's worth, you've got a new reader.

2008-01-29T04:21:00.000+01:00

i myself apologized to her for my "don't be a clink" comment because while i don't want anyone to think i am "nice", per se, i also don't like people thinking i am mean. and i hate feeling like i have hurt someone, and i think she was genuinely hurt.

i read both of your blogs and i like both of them. because you both live totally separate experiences that i find entertaining for different reasons. but i also suggested that her commenters not be so quick to judge you when their problem with you was that you were so quick to judge clink, because i did think that was unfair. i think the highest road would have been allowing you to have a say as well.

I love reading Clink's blog but only because she s...

2008-01-29T02:26:00.000+01:00

I love reading Clink's blog but only because she seems to live in some kind of bizzaro world where everything revolves around Clink and everyone loves Clink.

She can't take any form of criticism. Her comments are flush with people who will jump to her defense because they love her (blindly).

Backing out of the competition? Please.

Her supposed high road? Puhleeze.

Your way? So the high road, way classier. She needs to either delete that post or delete all the comments since they're ALL glowing comments that bash you (blindly, without knowing what was exactly said in that post).
