That's the noise that this blog makes me want to make. I'm normally fairly articulate but I struggle to find the words to properly encapsulate the feeling that the....the....the fuckwittedness of whoever this belongs to engenders in me. I honestly couldn't tell you exactly what it is that bothers me so much. Technically I should just forget it exists and get on with my life where real, actual issues should occupy me - such as Mariah Carey's burly legs, big scary man-hands and startling self-delusion, or how much I hate the Daily Mail, or any number of important things. Instead I find myself dropping incredulous, hate-filled comments on this most ridiculous of "causes". Just why anyone cares remotely about this is totally, totally beyond me. Some of the comments are hilarious though - my favourite being from Dead Man Jones who has this to say on the subject:
"I have never before been passionately moved to announce my apathy, it being self-contradictory. Your blog has changed this. I now want to scream from the rooftops that I, being of sound mind, couldn't given a tinker's cuss what logo Ask / Ask Jeeves uses. I am deeply passionate about my lack of passion on this subject, and very serious when I say I don't take your cause seriously. "
And a literary genius who goes by the name of Surly Girl who felt sufficiently moved to add:
"um, why would i care? couldn't you just, i don't know, get over it?"
Advice I would do well to take myself, I fear.

I'm not even gonna look at the blog you mentioned - what will power!! Cos if it makes your blood boil it'll make me angry too.
Wanted to comment on your last blog, but couldn't find the words. You're both great. (When do I get Cottage Pie?)

I caved in and looked, but fortunately I don't have an attention span long enough to read a post that long ....
oh, but the comments.....skip to the sycophantic, i-have-nothing-beter-to-do-than-worry-about-a-cartoon-butler-sorryvalet-on-a-crap-search-engine comments. plus some funny "oh, fuck off" ones.
what is my obsession with hyphens today all about? what??

I echo your title on this side of the Atlantic. I often drive by the "Ask Jeeves" building and think, "How? How are they still in business? They have a search engine based on a butler."
Silly.
I liked that Ask Jeeves logo with the big foamy hand/finger.
Bets on places to insert?
Had to look you up from Jonny B. Can't invite you to read my blog - 'aint got one but yours looks promising. That sounds patronising - sorry -should be elsewhere. Will rerurn.
Surly Girl, linked to you ages ago when I read you on Mary P's blog.
You rock! Tell it like it is!
enough cliches? ok :-)
I did glance at the HUMUNGOUS post on this Ask Jeeves thing - and the only thought I came up with was - WHO CARES??
