Astonishingly True Facts About BC Members

Good day!

Having been a member of the incredibly wondrous Blog Catalog for almost a year now, I've learnt some SHOCKING facts about the other members of this fine community.

Naturally, they are very sensitive and frankly disturbing facts, that I had promised to keep a secret.

UNTIL NOW!

Take Claire, for example:
www.blogcatalog.com/user/crpitt

Claire like to hike, sure - but did you know that whilst out and about on these treks, she likes nothing more than to paint rude words upon any livestock she comes across? SHOCKING!

And Kevin. Oh, Kevin.
www.blogcatalog.com/user/pointlessbanter

Kevin has a tattoo of Elton John upon his chest, with a speech-bubble saying 'Kevin is my Rocket Man'. Oh dear. Oh dear oh dear.

The Offended Blogger, then.
www.blogcatalog.com/user/offendedblogger

She once threw an OWL at a PRIEST. Can you believe that? I mean, honestly.

kdawg68
www.blogcatalog.com/user/kdawg68

kdawg68 was raised by horses, which is why even to this day, he still eats hay and has to poop in fields.

Not even Mr. Nine is without scandal.
www.blogcatalog.com/user/NINE

He wears a hat to conceal the fact that he has a small dog growing out of his head, which he has nicknamed 'Scalpy'.

Do you know any terrible secrets about the BC community? Then share them here, so we can all have a jolly good laugh.

And to think, I actually speak to these people. An owl at at priest? I don't really care about the priest bit, but that poor owl. Knowing kdawg, that sounds about right. And Claire, after seeing some of her latest posts I believe it. Don't believe me, see the birthday thread. And the other two...too shamefully to comment on. And I thought this was a respectable neighborhood.

  Pffft. You can talk, GlossGreen.
  
  GlossGreen, ladies and gentlemen, is secretly building up a huge puppet army, with which he hopes to conquer the world. Disgraceful behaviour, I am sure you will agree.

  Damn, now I'll have to switch to hamsters. I'd sling a bit of mud at Mr. Fancypants above, but he has no shame and writes about all his exploits already. Except for that one time. Let me just say, Richard Gere and a groundhog. You figure it out from there.

Some of these, I would have guessed...but Nine? That's disturbing (but explains a lot).

Actually, Claire didn't want to mention it, but she was hoping to start a new art form-- and a new blog--- dedicated specifically to "livestock tagging" as she calls it.

It's a hip new way of expression there on the mean fields of Wales.

Of course now the info is out, perhaps her plans have changed.

  UK graffiti artist, Banksy, has been tagging livestock for years:

Jenn, our Thrift Shop Romantic, really decorates her house in an ulta-modern minimalist style. Her secret wish, though, is to recreate the charming ambiance of cubicles in an office building. Her blog and handle here are devious ploys to cover up her dark aesthetic secret.

  The problem wasn't so much that they were arrested as that once the Police understood what had actually happened, the DA's office decided to prosecute two guys who were essentially doing street promotions on charges that simply did not make sense. The Judge had trouble taking the charges seriously.
