Non-notable blog. Recent contested prod. Blargh29 (talk) 03:17, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Doesn't look like it was ever prodded; speedys were attempted though. --Cybercobra (talk) 03:59, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- It was deleted via prod & then restored per a request on my talk page. When undeleting, I didn't restore the revision where the prod was added. --ThaddeusB (talk) 04:22, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comment... well, it certainly needs a rewrite and sourcing to show notability. Seems that it got a minor write up by Fox News about one of the funnier postings. Following Fox's link, I read the posting. Hilarious. Surprised this has not gotten more press. Then it's part of an article from Seattle Times that was reprinted in the Memphis Commercial Appeal. Haven't done much looking past that. Too Busy chuckling. Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 19:04, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete - This does indeed appear to be a popular blog (top 100K websites in US overall), but popularity doesn't equate with notability. GNews finds only 2 mentions, neither significant. A Lexis Nexis search reveals about half a dozen more sources, but unfortunately they all appear to either just repeat a joke or say "check out this funny blog." The Seattle Times article is perhaps the most significant source of the bunch, and it is extremely minimal. I would probably give this one a pass if one significant source could be found, but as it stands now there is nothing with which to write an article. --ThaddeusB (talk) 00:32, 5 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.
