It’s Love Our Lurkers Day

Blogkeeping — By on 13 October, 2009 6:00 am

There is a day on the spanking blogging calendar that makes it easier for you, the readers, to press that “reply” button and say – well, anything at all, which you might have been too shy to say before.

It’s today – the international delurk day across the blogosphere, coordinated by Bonnie at My Bottom Smarts. (You can see a list of participating blogs over at hers, and discover some new reading material for when you should be working.)

I’m a prodigious lurker myself, and know how hard it can be to step forward for the first time, even with a simple hello. Well, today it’s easy. Everybody is doing it. You know how if everybody jumps off the bridge, you’re supposed to do it too? Er, never mind, maybe I’ve got things mixed up. Anyway, delurking is easy – come forward and say hello!

P.S. I’m trying to spend very little time online this month, but I’ll make a point to come and rescue new commenters out of the moderation queue.

    Hey Adele! Not really a lurker, since I’ve commented anonymously on your blog before, but since I just got a non-anonymous blogsona I thought I’d chime in here.

    I do appreciate this blog immensely. Its awesome to know that even famous fetish starlets watch Battlestar Galactica and read XKCD. Thanks for your many great posts.

    Hello! I don’t leave comments very often, because if I actually have nothing to say it’s kind of awkward to try saying something. I wish blog comment panels had that thing that’s on Facebook where you can just click the word ‘like’ to express approval. Maybe instead the word here could be ‘lurk’.
    Anyway, I check in about twice a week, yours and about a dozen altogether, always something interesting no matter where I go. It would surprise most vanilla folk to see the quality of the text, as opposed to mainstream ‘insert (something) here, big boy’ and other fine chestnuts.
    Keep up the good work!

    Cheers, S.N.M.! I actually try to keep displays of nerdiness to a minimum on here, but it’s not really working :) It’s good to know there are readers out there for whom it’s not a turn-off :)

  4. Adele says:

    Gary, I know what you mean about not having much to say – that’s why I mostly lurk on lots of blogs, as well. But it’s good to have you out there. Without readers, it’s pretty lonely on the blogs, you know…

    Hi! I sometimes visit, not because I’m a career spanker, but because I deeply love to look at big bums being roundly slapped. Simply, I get off on it. I’ve been thinking about trying to spank someone – not my darling, though, who doesn’t like a firm hand on her slim white Irish arse, for some odd reason. No, my dream is to tan a large, shapely, goose-bumpy bottom – one that thoroughly deserves it. Yes, it is about sex in my fantasy, which ends up with the application of soothing ejaculate on said arse, which then dribbles down into the valley-like cleft. Is it possible? One day, maybe…

    I also really like the voice of your blog. Even if it was about – I don’t know – fishing tackle, I’d probably visit it. Probably. Mwah! xx

    I have nothing to say, as well, but that never stops me from running at the virtual mouth… someone should be spanked for that.

    Back into my box now…

    “A prodigious lurker” – now that made me laugh because it is just so blinking true. You elevate it to an art, I think. I study at your knee!

  8. Keagen says:

    Sandy, glad you came out of the box. :-) Adele, I’m a fellow blogger who really isn’t a lurker, but I’m not sure if I’ve commented here before. I read quite a bit!

    May you have a wonderful LOL Day!

    Keagen

    Hey Adele, can’t remember if I’m commented here before. Must say I appreciate your sense of humour and your openness about your own experiences.

    Oh and BTW I’m looking forward to a report at some point on your ongoing internet fast. How’s that going?

    Hey Adele,

    great blog, surely on my “check-those-blogs-out” list every week :)

    Cheers

    LOL day is so much fun!

  12. R Humphries says:

    Hi Adele … Have long been a fan of your blog … was one of the first I ever read … and I keep on reading! … great job … RH

  13. Bonnie says:

    Hi Adele,

    Thanks for joining our LOL day celebration. It looks as though you caught more bloggers than lurkers, but that’s fun too. :)

    Hugs,
    Bonnie

  14. Bethie says:

    Hi, Adele! I’m one of those bloggers who lurk but I wanted to take this chance to let you know I really enjoy your blog. :-)

    Hugs,
    Bethie

  15. Pandora says:

    Bonnie, Adele seems to be pretty good at catching bloggers ;)

    Hey lady. Missing you! Hope the time away from the screen is doing you good :) x

  16. better late than never I suppose, Happy LOL day.

  17. Anna says:

    I’m late too – guess I should be spanked ;)

    Love your work, love your blog – I admire you kids so much!

    Oh, and btw, hello!

  18. S.N.M. says:

    Adele, nerdy girls are the best. They’re smart, quirky, offbeat, and much more likely than other types to be kinky. Nerds are sexy. Don’t hide it.

    Oliver…that was…not quite “beautiful,” per se, but it has an odd poetic quality to it.

    Hi Adele:)
    dropping by to send smacks and kisses for LOL day:)

    Hi Adele
    I like lurking and sometimes coming out and saying thanks you brighten up my days and then popping back in the wood again see you next year
    lol

  21. So far, I’m the latest, it seems. No surprise, given how I’m a lurker because I’m always behind in the feed reader by at least a week.

    Happy away-time, Adele.

  22. Oliver says:

    Thanks very much S.N.M. It’s all true – all erotic writing needs the aura of conviction, even down to a tuppeny ha’penny blog post.

    Now, back to dreaming of spanking large bottoms… xx
