If you’re reading this post, odds are the title caught your eye and you just HAD to see what it was about. Yeah, that pretty much happened to me too as I stumbled upon this blog today.
Dogs on Drugs is not what it may seem; but it isn’t exactly your everyday blog, either. We don’t learn the super personal side of this blogger, but you certainly are exposed to Greg’s cynical tone, offensive attitude, and foul language. His contact page alone pretty much deters one from wanting to reach out, claiming that any hate mail sent his way becomes his property; and he can therefore use it to tear you to shreds!
For those of you with a bit of a twisted mind (like me!), Greg writes some noteworthy posts about life. His topics range from Spring Break memoirs, to his uncanny love for Led Zepplin, to his son’s controversial performance at school and all other sorts of out-of-left-field ramblings.
So, why Dogs on Drugs… right? That was the first question I had when I got to the site, and I learned even a little bit more about this mysterious Greg. First, I clicked the about tab and was brought to a “Tween Idol” page, where he carries on about Miley Cyrus looking like a horse and Miranda Cosgrove like Michael Jackson.
Uh… what?
A bit confused, I look up to the right and see a tab called about (seriously this time). Greg goes on to explain that he does NOT advocate dog or cat drug abuse (although he had an incident in college that sounded pretty hilarious), and that the name of his blog pretty much stemmed from him wanting an attention-grabber; oh, and that all the “domain hogs” out there that want large amounts of money for a web domain are simply, “assholes”.
He’s got silly polls and relative, yet funny images to go with each post. He’s a pleasure to read, as his writing style just kind of flows as if he were giving a monologue or hosting a webcam presentation.
Writer like Greg are hard to come by. I say this for a couple of reasons. First of all, most dudes who blog can be on the corny/geeky/Harry Potter fantasy tip- yeah, that shit is a turn off. Greg is honest, clever and playful. While he clearly gets off on “being a dick like that” and running his mouth, I’m sure he still has a soft side like every one of you fellas has in there somewhere.
In the mean time, the entertainment value of this blog is high and I recommend you check it out sometime for another perspective. We are all dealing with this ride we call life, the ups and downs and inbetween’s. Sometimes it helps to find people who share your points of view, your sick sense of humor, or similar experiences to which you can relate!
Or, sometimes it’s just nice to just find another demented person who finds pleasure in messing with people. After all, laughter heals the soul!
