Moments ago I received the following cryptic communication via email:
I gather this means that someone is reading my blog and, even better, is about to write about it on some vastly more popular site. Which is a great relief – I was getting to the point where I was seriously looking at sending lame emails around the intertubes in a desperate effort to get hits.
I wonder what a “pwning” is. Will it hurt?
UPDATE 5/7: My favourite unsolicited comedy series continues:
Another one?

You sure have adoring fans.

Just Googled that guy. He had Andrew Bolt on his blogroll – obviously a credible person.

Oh no! Not the Leon Bertrand, QC? You’re doomed! DOOOOOOOOOMED!

wow… sounds like a douchetard… combining the nerdiness of the word ‘pwned,’ with the general douchiness of someone saying “i’m going to tell my mum on you!11!!1!”

HE must be desperate for readers if he’s emailing people and alerting them.
What a wanker.

Grow up, Leon.

His first battle was Leon Bertrand QC vs Time Life.
Now it’s just Leon Bertrand vs Life itself.

Do you feel humiliated Scott, do you???

The post is up, entitled ‘Sear seared’.
Come to Leon’s blog for the pwnings, stay for the sublime wordplay.

Just tried to read it but fell asleep. Same old nonsense that you can’t take seriously at all.
So that’s a “pwning”, is it? Good grief.

So that’s where the wet lettuce went.
Apparently I luvs oppressive Islam and wants to marry it and have its BABIES. Even though I criticised the existence of Islamic schools in the very post in question and have regularly condemned atrocities carried out in that religion’s name, including oppression of – among others – women and gays.
But because I was critical of a patronising rant in which women are told what they can and can’t wear, I’m somehow sympathetic to, oh, female genital mutilation.
He’s not a smart boy, our Leon.

He should stick to horseshoes.

Oh, Leon.

Geez Jeremy,
As a compassionate member of teh left, I’m worried about your state of mind given the vicious pwning you’ve been getting at the hands of the QC.
Do you have the number for Lifeline?
Keri // 5 July, 2009 at 9:57 pm
I know Jeremy has no compassion for me, and makes me wear a Burqa at all times.
You know, because he’s a lefty and all lefties hate women and want to oppress them and love teh Muslims.
Either that or Leon is a fucking idiot. It’s a close call.
Brokenleftleg // 5 July, 2009 at 10:03 pm
I heard Jeremy has a burqa shop because he can’t make ends meet as a lawyer.
Scott // 6 July, 2009 at 1:18 am
He could’ve at least bought you flowers first.

I don’t even know what “pwned” means, is it the blogging equivalent of a reaming or something?
What I do know for certain however is that Leon Bertrand is a fucking joke.
