No need for any of y'all to comment. Byoolin is here. I shall regale you all with fine examples of my wit.

And the real byoolin is here, right behind not-byoolin. More later. I'm hanging with Liz and Gene right now.

Geez. I wonder if maybe I have Alzheimer's and the first comment is really me?

Since the OJ robbery story broke, I've been annoying TMZ like a smelly homeless man. This is a valid mainstream press story it is equally a valid tabloid story. Now all we need is a Weekly World News headline: .Bat boy "I'm no rat, but he did it"

Thanks, not-byoolin and "real" byoolin. You have both served your purpose and may step aside now. I'm hanging with AG-elect Mukasey right now and discussing Iraq war strategy with my man, G' Bush!

One byoolin is enough.

There's way too many byoolins in here. It's starting to sound like a Henry Mancini songfest.

seriously, don't hijack people's handles. it's not nice and breaks all sorts of interstate trafficking laws.

the OJ story is a legitimate news story, not just a tabloid story. armed robbery is one of the 'seven deadly sins' here where I live. there's mandatory jail time for brandishing a weapon and it sounds like there was definitely some brandishing going on.

It's not nice to steal people's handles. Be orignal and think of your own. Although, it is kind of funny to see all the confusion caused by the byoolin impersonators. Will the real byoolin say something insightful and funny so we'll recognize you?

i meant to capitalize, but i was too lazy to look for the shift key. who has that kind of time?

I am reminded of an old BC cartoon. BC is introducing Curls to everyone else; when BC introduces him to Peter, he says, "This is Curls, master of sarcasm and wit."

Peter says, "Say something funny."

Curls: "I'm pleased to meet you."

I think being called "insightful and funny" is what prompted that reminiscence, by the way.

and i'm the real one.
enough said.

Ah, I think we've located the real one.

besides, the real methinks (which is, me) wouldn't deign to explain why she doesn't use the shift key.

"and i'm the real one.
enough said.

Posted by: the real methinks is PO'd | September 18, 2007 01:00 PM"

not me. just stop.

the shift key is a crutch for those who cant handle a caps lock. you should never have to explain that.

liz, is there some way to track the nitwits doing this and banish them to a deserted island?

I wish. This is kind of disheartening. Especially appended to such a serious post.

11:56, 12:30, 1:05 are all not me. (Nor, I'd guess, are they the cute Not Me character from the Family Circus who turns out to be responsible for all of Jeffy's transgressions and his heartbreaking slide into the hell that is meth addiction.)

bizaa. it says there are 20 comments but it only shows 3. wonder if it will show this one....

Liz - You should do what On Balance had to do after their snarkfest turned ugly - require everyone to use their WaPo handle when posting.

Secondly, lots and lots of people want to hear all the details about this because they want to see OJ go down, finally, after getting away with murder. I don't think he'll be able to get a trial that is only about the weapons charge. It's always going to be about Nicole.

I agree-- folks should steer clear of using someone else's handle. It's not cool and I really like reading comments from both the "real" byoolin and methinks. Those guys are great snarky writers, unlike the imposter clowns who need to just fade out.

I would tell B should refresh her page, but she probably won't see this.

I didn't ask Liz to track down the nitwits and banish them, though I wish there was some way it could happen. For the record, I am the real, the original, the one and only (well, i used to be) 'methinks'. I guess I need to come up with a new name or something, but that makes me sad.

The real methinks would always comment on the original post by Liz. Which I did. *Sigh*
Yours truly,
The real methinks

What if byoolin and methinks got together and planned all of this and the imposters are really byoolin and methinks pretending to be people pretending to be byoolin and methinks?

Whoa...I just blew my own mind...

Was Liz kidding about this being such a serious post? We are talking about OJ Simpson, aka, the punchline, right?

If only that were the case, Anonimis.
1) I'd love to know the real byoolin in real life because I think he/she must be hilarious. (I imagine byoolin as a man, a manly man.)

2) It would mean we could take over the world a la Pinky and the Brain, w/me, the real original methinks, playing the part of Pinky (sad to say.) I think we'd have a real shot at accomplishing the task, too!

Apparently OJ Simpson is "high brow" now, yes. You do know what this means?

Given enough time, even discussions about Paris Hilton and Britney Spears will be the peak of Celebritology High-Brow ("Britney Spears Revisited: The Girl, The Woman, The Senator from California"). In 2009, we can gather 'round and discuss the moral implications of pulling the Spears children from Britney, and the resulting impact on their development.

So this is what happens when I go off and do actual work. We are being invaded my byoolins and methinks. Who's handle will be co-opted next? irishgirl? Lisa1?

i didn't watch it, but i just about fell out when i saw that kato was going to be on larry king last night....

he probably egged oj on just so he could become "relevant" again.

It seems to me that OJ is batguano crazy, to use the legal term.

If the memorabilia *is* his, as he says, do you go in with your posse waving guns? You could hire private eyes, sue, or call the cops. And if the po-po, "since [his] trouble, have not worked out for" him, as he says, he might have thought a step or two ahead and considered what they'd do if they stepped into a room in which one or more black men were waving guns around.

And if it's not his stuff, he is still O.J., after all. Did he actually think that the same police who didn't "work out" for him in other situations were going to come across his little at-gunpoint personal property reclamation project and just let it slide?

And he didn't even bring along AC as his getaway driver.

I think it will be irishgirl.

OJ with a gun.
OK, can we please let Pete Rose off the hook now? His crimes and misdemeanors seem paltry in comparison.
Of course he was never in a Hertz commercial (with tight pants)

methinks, I love part 2 of your post. I am a little disappointed, though, because *I* wanted to be the one to say, "What are we going to do next week, Brain?" in that voice.

(The Lovely Mrs. byoolin says I'm a manly man.)

I am delighted for the break from Brittney hype.

We need avatars next to our handles. byoolin can have the Superman insignia and methinks can be a power puff girl.

I'd rather my avatar be Jesus from South Park, thankyouverymuch.

that's not the real byoolin!

I was never that much into South Park, actually. Didn't get the cable channel.

Come to think of it, though, picking that Jesus would appeal to my sacrilegious atheist side.

You're getting better. If you ever figure out the password to post to my blog, I might be screwed.

Oh my, someone stole my name on the morning mix thread. I'd be mad if I wasn't so flattered at being hijacked with the likes to byoolin and methinks!

i thought liz was joking as well about this being a serious post. this is a blog about celebrities, nothing posted here is serious.

this isn't about a robbery it's about oj getting away with two murders. people who didn't know nicole or ron from adam are so enraged about seeing him breath free air. i wonder how many people would give a rat's behind if he was acquitted of murdering his first wife??????

Then again, the hijacker is probably a newbie if they picked me.

I agree, moodring. I don't know why (besides the racial elepant in the room) they choose OJ to be angry at when there are so many others like him, black and white. Then again, it might have something to do with how damn cocky that man is. I'm not mad at him going to jail. He has mush for brains.

Pretty soon methinks and I are going to be running this place. Then you'll see.

[singing: Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain...]

Anyone who knows me knows that cable television cartoons would never do for me. I don't pay for television. I'm a democratic (small d) cartoon watcher from waaaay back.

And to you, real true byoolin, I just *knew* you were a manly man!!

[sings along, "We're Pinky and the Brain, Pinky and the Brain..."]

Chuck Jones rules.

Get off my pedestal, the real methinks! Can't you see this is all about me here?!

[resumes singing: Brain, Brain, Brain, Spam, Brain...]

(And although Jones didn't do Pinky, his influence is all over it.)

*sigh*

i suppose it was inevitable that i would have to change my name. any suggestions?

2.10, 2.12: me.
2.11: not.

2:13's 'the one and only methinks' wasn't. The real methinks, that is.

I am the real original methinks and I'm leaving for work, very sad that some stupid person decided to ruin my fun on this blog.

I've messaged Liz about this, but I doubt there's anything she can do. I just hope the perps decide to go away.

All these duplicates floating around...

So these twins are new in town and looking for work. After inquiring at a number of places, they both apply to ring the church bells at this old cathedral and one of the brothers gets hired.

On his first day on the job, he slips, one of the giant bells hits him and knocks him out of the tower and he falls sixty feet to his death.

A crowd gathers and someone asks, "Does anyone know who this man is?"

"I don't know his name," someone else says, "but his face rings a bell."

****

After the funeral, the surviving twin takes over his late brother's job. On his first day at work, in an almost inconceivable coincidence, he also slips, one of the giant bells hits him and it knocks him out of the tower and he falls sixty feet to his death.

Once again, the crowd gathers. Someone asks, "What was this man's name?"

"I don't know his name," someone else says,
"but he's a dead ringer for his brother."

a rabbi, a priest and a baptist minister walk into a bar....

the bartender looks up and says:

"What is this? Some kind of joke?"

haha

Wow, so my imposter is copying-and-pasting jokes off the web as me. gotta hand it to him, at least he's trying. i suppose he'll have a livejournal and flickr account as me by the end of the day?

now : me
2:37 : not me

Actually, 3:28, byoolin's had an lj for a few years now. (In fact, byoolin wrote about his shadow earlier today.) Before lj, there was a thing at Geocities and a blog at pitas. The Flickr account has been around for a year or two. And the handle byoolin was active at the resort.org talker about 10 years ago when byoolin met the The Lovely now Mrs. byoolin there.

My head is spinning.

Sorry, Anonimis. Hopefully he'll go away now?

This is getting tiring...

2:37, 3:28 : not me
3:35 : mo

Why would anyone want to be me? Y'all must have a pretty sad life.

u r not teh byooulin. i m teh byoolin.

Somebody on #hackers on EFnet told me to come here and say I'm byoolin. Does that mean anything? Is this like a club or something?

unfortunately, as we have all learned right here in this celebrity blog, if you're star gets out of control, the best thing to do is lie low and let it pass....eventually the paparazzi/hackers will give up and move on and the said celebrity/poster can quietly return to their ways and let the vicious circle start agin.

i'd give it the rest of the week and then the real real byoolin and the one and only methinks can then resume their wittiness and caption-of-the-week haggling.

you've just become too popular.

(it's about this time you both are supposed to find jesus, as well)

I think everyone needs to put down the mouse and step outside for some fresh air!

Jesus, this is unreal... Rather than fix the problem, I need to put up with this usurper?

WWBD? What Would Britney (Byoolin?) Do?

Do you think these guys OJ busted in on might actually be THE REAL MURDERERS???

And there he's been wasting all that time looking for them on golf courses.

so...
since the trolls seem to have left the building, we're left with Liz's original question. OJ is one of those egocentric alpha's that takes 'it's all about me' to a new level. And since so many hitched their butts to his falling star in the mid 90s - why shouldnt they fondly remember days gone by with 7 counts of armed robbery and a kidnapping charge for good measure.

Yes - prepare yourself - we're in for another looooooong drawn out OJ Simpson story. Is this about justice delayed? maybe... Is it about a bad person finally getting caught doing something bad? maybe... Is it about members of the american legal/justice system looking for payback? maybe... hell, they'll do stories about the stories - expect Jeannie Moos to do something in the not too distant future.

Now me? I figure it all goes back to Capricorn-1... cut a little too close to the truth there Juice - this is just another 'example' to those who would question the veracity of our lunar "past". The boys in Langley have had it out for him ever since - and i bet they didnt plant any extra-small gloves at this scene... ;)

Wow...what a "you know what" show. Pretty immature, jerkos.

Huh, was there a subject in here somewhere between the name-calling and impersonation?

With OJ, who knows what the truth is? With the murders in 1994, the drawn-out trial and media circus, and OJ's unusual behavior since, getting at the truth would take Mother Theresa, Sigmund Freud, and Sherlock Holmes... and they'd still be discounted by the media and the masses.

According to this evening's news, they added a kidnapping charge to the list. I have yet to figure that out. Who knows? :( We need an island to send people of ill repute. Is Australia still available?

To: September 18, 2007 9:00 PM

"Is Australia still available"? Even better - Siberia.
