A blog chain is a pretty cool thing that allows other people to wander into your blog, comment on your post and then wander back out to write something relatively relating to what you posted, hence the “chain” effect. Also, as I’ve already said, it’s done in your blog, hence “blog.” Put the two together and we have a “blog chain.” One person starts by writing a post. The next person writes a post based on that and so on and so forth until the chain ends. It’s also a shameless means of self-promotion and an ego-boost to see your blog stats jump for a couple weeks.

What parent would allow their kid to gnaw the hell out of their comforter while simultaneously disemboweling it or constantly pee on the floor (he is house trained, I swear, he’s just a bastard) without shipping them off to a boarding school? Or a psychologist? While he doesn’t get away with it, I’m not going to string him up from the rafters either but don’t get me wrong, sometimes the urge creeps it’s way up. I fight it back and I just end up with a popped capillary.
