A Couple Of Neat Features

Ahem – just a moment of your time….. I wanted to let everyone know about two new features on Bone In The Fan to help you keep up with posts and comments a bit more easily (because I know you can’t stand the thought of missing a single magic word).  In addition to traditional RSS feeds available from the links in the sidebar, you can now sign up to get an email when a new post goes live, thanks to the awesome new Version 4.7 of Subscribe2, a great Wordpress plugin. This notifies you of posts only (not comments), and since I tend to write on a daily basis you won’t get inundated with email.  I won’t use the list for anything else, and it’s very easy to unsubscribe. Check it out here.

Also, since there tends to be some back and forth in the comments area, you can now check a box when you leave a comment (thanks to the also awesome plugin Subscribe To Comments)if you want to be notified when there are other followups on that post.  This is done on a per-post basis and notifies you of comments only (not posts), so you won’t hear about new posts (nor will you hear about comments on posts you haven’t subscribed to).

And here’s where I’d be a major douche if I didn’t thank everyone for the really positive feedback via comments and email. So thanks.

    I thought this was the Men’s room blog. Please get back to Tales of the Toilet.

    Douche is a word that should be used sparingly, and only by experts, in order to achieve maximum effect. Even so, it is way underused. Thank you for furthering the cause.

  • I don’t need no schtinkin’ reminders. I can remember ev…what the hell am I doing here? And what was I saying?

  • Thank you Robey for recognizing my status vis-a-vis usage of the word douche. I’m a big fan myself, and a few months ago started trying to make it a more regular part of my diet. The word, not the noun. Then I noticed that there seems to be a bit of a resurgence happening with it, so I’m on the fence about just how and where to use it. Still though, I can’t just put it down all together.

    It is generally assumed that douche is simply a shortening of douche bag. This need not be the case but why not just choose a different object to modify altogether. No need to consult the thesaurus as a few new ones jump to mind: douche towel, douche rag, douche cake, douche ball, or my own personal favorite, douche ranger. All should be preceded by the salutation, Yo!

    Damn. This month’s Esquire has a whole article on the word Douchebag. Fucking panty waists.

  • You must be kidding. Oh well – I like the spirit you show, all trying to start a resurgence of panty waists and stuff, but I think the extremely pointy and monumentally irritating stick figure Ann Coulter already brought that back on Fox a few years ago.
