B.L.O.G - What Does It Stand For?

So my boy kidlet and I were chatting the other night. We were talking about my blog (which he and my DH don't understand, like at all). He said, "What does blog stand for anyway?"

I'm thinking, Hmm...

So he goes, "Biological... (cuz, that's really logical. But I guess that's where an 11-year-old mind goes.)...League... (who doesn't need a league? I've always wanted to be in a league. Like The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. Except I'm not a man. But you get the idea.)...Of... ... ... ... Goons."

Commence hyena laughing.

That is all.

(BTW, he was totally offended when I typed this post and called him a kidlet. He prefers "tween" just FYI.)

(BTW x 2: He said, "NO. Mature tween." Pshaw. And humph. You should see his room. Mature? I think not.)

(BTW x 3: He was next to me during the writing of this post. He is a fan-freaking-tastic kid. He is not offended I said his room was a mess. He knows it is.)

(BTW x 4: What do you think blog stands for?)

    Okay, clearly that has nothing to do with your Blog, but I was really having a tough time. Forgive me! And I love the "kidlets" outrage to your clever word!

    Hmmm...Bumbling Laments On Golf?

    Nah.

    Batman Looking Over Gotham?

    Nah.

    Bad Limericks Of Gollum?

    Oh yeah, I like that one.

    Oh, and I like the use of kidlet, even if he doesn't. It could be worse :)

    That's all I've got. Or, rather, that's the only one I have that makes any sense. Lol. :)

    Web = Log = Blog. My brilliance amazes me at times.

    Okay, I had to Google the word one time when somebody asked me what blog stood for. I had no clue. Seriously.

    I sorta like Eric's "Batman Looking Over Gotham" .... so does that make us all Batman? Because his cape and utility belt are wicked awesome and I'd love a set of those.

    In which case, we should, as Abby suggested, get to making those t-shirts or name tags- or superhero secret identities ....

    We all knew it was the shortened version of weblog right? ;)

    But as I am guessing this is meant to be a creative task,
    bionic
    longterm
    organic
    Lectures.

    Ha! Made myself laugh.

    Can't...breathe...laughing...too...hard.

    I totally need a cape. Everyone needs a cape. Be are BatPeople! Who can make me a cape? Or at least a batman badge of awesomeness? Kate? Abby? Natalie? Someone with serious art skillz? We all need one to display proudly on our BLOGs (Batman Looking Over Gotham)!

    ROTFL!

    More procrastination fuel. Just what I need. Thanks, Elana. I'll let it fester for a bit and see if I can come up with something.

    Although, I think Becca's 'Biographical Longwinded Overshare Gazette' more aptly captures the true essence of blogging. Just saying. :)

    It's short for weblog - but you knew that, right?

  24. Katie GanshertAugust 26, 2009 at 7:08 PM

    Oooo! I know where the word ACTUALLY came from. Web Log. Then it got meshed together to form blog. "They" (whoever "they" is) nixed the w-e from web). That's not very exciting though.

    So my version of blog.

    B - big

    L - loopy

    O - online

    G - group

    that was super weak, but that's all I got tonight. :)
