Good luck with the move! I’d almost bet someone here that you’ll be back within a month. Perhaps I should start a ‘when will dan return’ pool or something… hehe.
Good luck with that. Last time I went on self-imposed xanga restriction, I ended up posting more.
. . .Though I’m sure you’ll be more disciplined than I was. Hope everything goes smoothly with the move.
Wow! Good luck with all the moving!
We shall all await your return.
wow that was sudden. See ya in a month then
really lol
ok
Good luck with all that.
NO! I love it here because of the constant updates!
well we’ll miss ya. but good luck moving.
Have fun on your hiatus! We’ll be thinking about ya!
Really? I guess.. have fun! I’ll really miss the news.
You’ve said you were leaving for good before, got ten thousand comments and then came back the next day like nothing ever happened!
i will miss your posts dan.
Awe, so sad Dan! Have fun!
wow. hope the move goes easily!
no way! is that a joke?
omg… no Dan for one month?! wow… it’s hard to imagine xanga w/o you… and one entire month… wow
Good luck w. moving though!!
NO WAY
see in a month. have fun moving.
Yeah right, you couldn’t live without Xanga. I am sure you will find some time, or at least make time to drop a line or two through Xanga Dan, don’t be kidding with us. You know it ain’t so.
Sadface. Good luck, we’ll be here when you get back.
do we get a substitute teacher?
I will await your return………does this mean I can’t visit you this November when I am deer hunting?
Take care my friend.
We’ll miss you. Look forward to when you return. Good luck with the moving.
What will i do without you, Dan? I’ll have to do something absurd like…spend more time with my son.
Good luck with your move!
Good luck with the moving!
Xanga is NOT going to be the same without you.
I won’t be as educated from all your posts and picture posts.
have a smooth move!
aawww. I hope you have a smooth move!
Where will I get my news from?
GOOD LUCK!!!!
Good luck with your move!
darn it all now I have to start reading Drudge again…only without the funny commentary. Good luck moving!
hope the moving goes well!
Good luck with your move! See you when you get back!
Seriously? =/ Where else am I gonna rant and rave?
Happy moving. Don’t stress yourself out too much.
wow that was a very formal goodbye letter… no hugs? kisses? tears?????
Good Luck! We will miss your posts….fer sure!
Don’t let the door hit ya, where the good Lord split ya.
Seriously, I don’t think you could do a month-long hiatus from this place. Prove me wrong.
You are going to have to go through a 12 step program for recovering Xanga addicts. I am not sure if you can quit cold turkey.
I don’t believe you…
Best of luck! Yeah, moving definitely makes you super busy! Hope it goes smoothly, and we’ll see you again in a month!
Even if that’s really your intention (which I highly doubt), you’ll be back within a week. Guaranteed.
OK, see you later. And by later I mean probably today or tomorrow when you post a blog.
Have fun moving!
Bye, Dan.
You know you can’t stay away from Steph for a month, anymore than I can.
I wish you hadn’t said “goodbye” like that. It sounds so final….
I miss him already!!! Waaaaaaaaahhhh!
well godd will on you adventures .
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
Moving sucks, so I forgive you for driving me back to our crappy newspaper which prints all the news worth knowing 48 hours after it happens. Good luck.
We will miss you!
hmm Xanga gonna be REAL quiet while you’re gone. Have a safe move and come back soon!!
See ya when you get back!
Really? Huh.
Well, if you’re not being a big fat liar, then good luck with the move!
This is probably just a screwed up experiment. Right dan?
Dang it! How are we going to get our news?
SIKE!
x0x MK
Wait I didn’t see any vacation requests Dan?
Awe, come on Dan, you don’t need to take a whole month off. You just need to update once or twice a week instead of 4 to 5 times a day.
See you when you get back.
lol, i don’t think he’ll be able to resist staying away for long…
Bye, Dan!
Have fun. We’ll be enjoying the peace and quiet. hehehe. j/k. TTFN. Be blessed.
What?! No!!! What are we going to do with ourselves?
Wait. Are you kidding?
Dan…where am I gonna get all of my absurd bits of news? And did Hell freeze over, too?
O_o
Oh well. Best of luck on the move!
<33
Happy moving. Maybe the new scenery will raise the level of debate to where it used to be.
Wow! I find it hard to believe that you could stay away for that long. Regardless, we will miss the forum here. Blessings to you and the family.
Good luck with the move… I hate moving personally. In the past 9 years, I have moved a grand total of 9 times. 10 if you count the small hiatus at family’s where only the truck got unpacked and everything was put into storage for a few months before we bought our current home.
i feel so lost!
…
good luck with the move!
Wow. I never thought I’d see the day!
good luck moving!
damn.
On the bright side, I’d have a lot more free time. =/
I bet he wouldnt last a week. I can barely last a day and I am not even a main online blogger-type. Plus, how long does moving take – either this is a joke or dan is a millionare because he has so much stuff to pack it takes a month to pack it up, move it, and unpack it. All my stuff takes me like a max of 4-8 hours to pack move and unpack in my dorm.. lol.
Moving is just about the most stressful thing I know, much luck =)
Grrr… where will I get my angst dealt with now????? Happy Move!
Wow, it’s going to be strange without you around. Did you write posts in advance for someone else to put up?
Oh, good luck with moving and what not.
You know, I find it hard to believe you when I see your little status light thing-a-ma-dilly coming on every hour or so!
you lie.
you’re trying to get tons of comments, and i’m contributing.
boo
Aw…I’ll miss you Dan, good luck with all the moving stuff. Check in from time to time, if you can.
Thank you. I needed to break free of my addiction. This will help.
Sobriety still sucks, but I’ll give it a few weeks more.
What will the interactive bloggers do in their lag time?
See you when you get back. Hope everything goes well for you…you will be missed.
Good! You insults too much anyway! We need a break from you.
Oh crap, I think I just saw a pig fly by my window…..
No. Please.. *sigh*
Good luck on your move – it’s always a big hassle…
You deserve a break. You should take more breaks from xangaland.
Best of luck with everything, Dan
See ya.
This is the first. When was the last time you have ever taken a break? Well, good luck on packing and moving to a new house.
LOL WTF?!
See you in a month! Good luck with the move!
awwwww, we’ll miss you!!
have a nice break! come back in one piece.
Good luck! Hope all goes smoothly!
Boo-urns!
an early april fools joke?
whoa. that was sudden. see you soon.
OMG! No warning – I keep thinking this is a joke right?
It would be a lonely/quiet month!!!! Good luck with moving!!! We will miss you! :]
There will be a lot of uniformed xangans over the next month…
Then I guess that I have to actually start reading/watching the news on my own. I’ve come to enjoy the fact that you take all the nonsense and leave just what is important…
*gasp* what will all of us xangans with nothing better to do do now to waste out time!?!?
*our time.
An entire month?
aww…come back quick lol..
*sighs sadly*
awe!… we’ll miss you, good luck moving! *smiles*
Good luck with the move. We’ll miss you.
Wha? Where will we go!? Take it easy, Dan. -David
Fun, fun, fun. Don’t hurt yourself by refusing help with a heavy piece of furniture from your wife because you decide to be a chauvinistic pig like my friend did when he helped me move. :]]
Though, I don’t think you will.Good luck and congrats (?) on the new place.
Have a stress-free time of moving!
Yeah right.
Good luck and God bless your move! I hope that Xanga doesn’t implode with the vacuum you will leave behind haha.
Here is a pre-emptive mini!
Goodbye! o/
Have fun. =]
//hatever.
but just incase, can you pass all your incoming traffic to me?
No………Say it isn’t so! Does this mean that I’ll have to go watch the financial news network with my husband now? Hurry back, and don’t either of you hurt your backs lifting heavy things.
That’s what you’re leaving us with? Nothing more, nothing less? Okay, great, have a smooth move and a semi-stress free one. =)
It is hard to believe you could stay away that long. I hope I remember to come back in 30 days.
How will i ever know the important news of the world now ? !
I want to cry for the people that believe you . . .
holy cow!
well good luck
it’s understandable although I will be missing your entries. guess we’ll all have a lot to catch up when you get back. be safe, you and the family, and enjoy your transition.
god bless.
In before the “just kidding” post. I hope? This is the only site I read anymore :[
holy cow. You updating is like a Xanga constant….what will we all do?
don’t forget us little people!
goodluck with the move. i now have to reason to check xanga.
Good luck with your move!
later.
good luck with the move! we’ll miss you while you’re away.
bye, bye!
Who will provide the ladies with moobs while you are gone!?
Wow, what will I do without your site to keep me informed on current events? Reading your blog is almost better then watching the news at times..
Best of luck with the move, Dan! We will miss you around here!
April Fools Day isn’t until next week!
we’ll be waiting.
wow i find it hard to believe that you of all people is taking a break from xanga. this is a joke right? i’m looking forward to the post that says haha just kidding…
well have fun moving!
is this some kind of joke?
XXXOOO
ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh my eyes are wet with tears like dew on a spring moring my legs are weak and Im barely standing I will not sleep till you post again…….. I will also eat nothing but chocolate cake and other such comfort foods…….. BoooooHoooooo…………………..Hoo!!!!
We will miss you.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Whhaaaaaat?!?
Are you joking dan??? Message me and let me know.
a whole month? wow. I’ll need to find some new entertainment
i bet you not posting for a month is going to work about as well as if amy winehouse decided to quit snorting cocaine for a month.
every time you see a computer with an internet connection, you’ll be thinking ‘well…it’ll only take a minute…’
in any case, moving is always an experience, so i hope you enjoy it!
we should have a countdown! haha 30days and counting down! =)
D:
We will miss you . Thank you for the blogs.
Hope the move goes smoothly for you! Looking forward to more blogs when the month is over.
If people rely on you as their only source of news in the world – holy crap, the world is in trouble.
Good luck with the move! I don’t know how anyone is going to make it without you for a month.
Bye Dan. My sub page is going to have so much less on it now.
Happy moving! I will miss you this month!
you know, xanga will have fall less going on without you, hope its still here when you get back!
THIS IS UNHEARDOF!!
what???…. the… nooooooooooooooooooo
WTF???? You better be damned joking!
Awww, what nifty questions will I read and answer for a month?
Seriously? The world will go stupid and out of touch now.
What can I do for a month…?
Yay on the new house!
you just dropped a bomb on my head
but i guess this is a good chance for me to quit this xanga addiction too
ok, why does this post have 5 stars?
that doesn’t make sense!
whoa. unexpected.
Have fun!!
Don’t get stung by any bees!
I think that a xanga revolution might start..
With the absence of Dan for one month, I wonder how many people will get bored and start roaming xanga… and bam. So many more xangas will be subscribed to and read.
Or maybe not.
Godspeed Dan… hope the move goes well.
Great! Where am I gonna get my news from? Who’s gonna spam my Universal inbox? See ya~
good luck moving i bet you may have fun!!if your wondering why my name is froggybutts thats because i think froggs are cute!! lol i know im kinda acting weard so uhh bye!!
wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaa WELL umm bye DAN we will miss you
But wait…what will we do without a new entry from you every few hours??
Surely we’ll go crazy.
Good luck with your move though!
First, I quit Myspace, now you quit Xanga!? There goes two of the whole five websites I ever go to! Gah, what will I do with my life? hah
Well, good luck with moving, Dan!
i’m waiting for the “sike”
it was just written so oddly… and i’m naturally skeptical.
I’m sorry to hear that. In the meantime, all of you can rest easy knowing that you can READ MY BLOG BECAUSE IT’S THE BEST BLOG ON XANGA and if you do READ MY BLOG BECAUSE ITS AWESOME you will get through this difficult time while TC is away.
I am there, for all of you.
bullshit!
Damn it Dan if you had moved a week ago I would have come and helped out………..congrats on the move………hell send all your subs over to me I ll ask them some crazy stuff….either that or they will laugh their arses off………good luck with the move……..
Hope everything runs smoothly when you move!
I can’t see you being MIA from XANGA for a WHOLE month. Is this a joke? LOL
Prank.
Oh, you won’t be able to manage that. At least I hope not.
Good luck on your move.
i’ll believe it when i see it
Bye bye, Dan. D:
Hahaha 8D
I don’t know whether to believe you or not. Sounds like a really good post to get LOTS of comments……….
I can’t believe you would stay away a month anyway. It doesn’t take that long to move, unless you are moving to another country, and they don’t have the internet.
If you are…….good luck. If you aren’t ………good post.
Hiatus is fun, but I don’t know what I’ll do without a Dan =(
whaaaaaa….you better be fibbin
ciao!
Good luck and I hope the move goes well!
-Guru on the Hill
This is mildly depressing. I hope you do well with your move.
no way…. the reason why i suscribed this blog ‘cuz i love the ur controversial posts…. cant find it in other blogs…….
you’re not gonna have some bad guest blogger are you?
:’( good luck with moving
Hope you enjoy your new house.
what? what am I going to do for a month???
Don’t make me have to watch the News, dan… don’t to it…
Oh yeah, my 40 days away from xanga is up and now you leave…and you’re the one that suggested the xanga for lent thing…sheeesh Oh well, I’m back now anyway. Hope your move is smooth and you get everything done you need to take care of.
you will still find a way to post and check your xanga.
you know it
once a xanga addict – always a xanga addict
for life!
Well… my Xanga time will be quite boring over the next month! Have fun moving!
Ohhhh the humanity! Well, it’s okay a month is only what like 720 hours?
nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!! what will we do without you?!?
Taking a break?!
Aww….
WOW I will Miss your posts, I look forward to them even if Im not a big commenter I like to read them… Hurry Back!!
The man who has a new entry every 2 hours is taking a break? Now Xanga will truly meet its demise.
awwwwwwwwwwww.. I’ll miss you!! hope you have a safe and breezy move =]
…. … now where am I to get my news….
hope you are well…..so abrupt! good thoughts for you.
no one to sub this time?
Ooh! Happy and successful moving, and I hope we don’t lose touch. Long absences can have that effect.
hark! did i hear a chorus of groans and sobbings??
*skipping happily*
Yes!!
Have a great break!
Can’t imagine xanga without you!
Don’t take too long, dammit! >_<
Good luck with the move Dan.
Moving to Texas?
aw man! that’s nuts! I hope the move goes well. That’s always tough in my opinion… God bless! rcy yes =]
Should at least get someone to sub for you. =P Now where will I go to answer all those interesting questions?!
I will miss you, Dan… Come back soon!
God bless your move!
Okay Dan. I promise I’ll never put whipped cream in your shoes while your sleeping again! Please come back!
Good luck moving!!..we’ll all miss you’re articles
Woah. This is strange. Good luck with moving. You should have picked someone to fill in for you, though.
Good luck with everything, and come back soon!!
You sound like I sounded back in February. LOL
I can’t believe this. *sits here shocked*
It’s strange coming back here and not seeing any new posts. Even though I know there won’t be any, it just feels wrong.
aw, i’ll miss the entries
see you soon!!
and hope moving and everything goes well!
wait… what?
nooooo….
YEA for selling the house!
I HATE to move. Hate it with a passion.
Good luck tho. We all need a break from Xanga from time to time. Hope this move is for the better for you.
Good bye and Good luck.
Regarding the post above: Drakonskyr is an ass and I refuse to read ANYTHING he has to write… doesn’t interest me. Thank bust no thanks.
I keep checking my subs out of habit.. you haven’t updated. *sigh* I’ll have to remember to check the news on my own. I don’t know where you got all of yours. I use yahoo and npr. Have a good break, anyway. We could all use one.
^^ Hah, I ROCK.
^^^Everybody loves to hate you.
hey! Didn’t recommend me when your away?!?!
I’m more family friendly then Dragonskyr!
It’s so delicious that all this hatred actually increase my readership. DEE LISH US I TELL YOU.
well…
1) i will miss you.
2) xangaland will be a little sad without you.
3) good luck, moving can be stressful.
4) see you back april 24?
I am saddened.
You kept me up on all the news.
Hope your move goes swiftly and well.
i think you live in PA right? Hope you don’t move other state!
@Drakonskyr - Hey Drakman, I’m back….did you NOT miss me?
Just somebody you LOVED heckling! And I tried to go come to your site from Dans link to your site and my computer froze…yeah, you tryin to evolve my created computer with some virus ***big raspberrys***
@Drakonskyr - lest you forget, I made the comment a while back about one of your profile pics that looked like you had a headache and I made a joke or somethin about nose pickin and somebody that I thought it LOOKED like you were picking your nose. Does that refresh your memory? Anyway, no biggy! Hope you’re well!
Wow, it will be strange to not see your posts for a while. I hope that your move goes well – we will miss your thought-provoking writings!
But I only just got addicted!
Aw poo.
I hope this is just a cruel joke.
NO! I never thought I’d see the day.
Well, I hope to see you back sooner then later. I’ll put a alarm on my phone to remind me in a month to check your site.
where am i going to read horrible stories about cats in the news so i can tell all my animal rights friends about it now?
I DON’T KNOW WHAT TO DO ON XANGA NOW.
ryc: thank you!
good luck! i’ll miss you!
There is no way you are going to stay away from xanga for a month. In fact, I bet you post within 48 hours.
Say it ain’t so, Dan!!!
believe me he is checking his posts now
i am going to miss you
Oooh, hope the moving goes well! I’ve heard it’s possible for moves to go well… just never experienced it. So good luck! ~M.E.
Glad to know you have a good sense of humor and can take a joke. Shows a lot about you. =]
Btw, it wouldn’t even be close, you would be the #1 pick in Fantasy Xanga drafts, for sure. Your blog has gotten ridiculously popular.
Hope the move goes smoothly.
April Fool’s!
Right? :] Have fun moving, Dan! If you’re good, you can make it in less than a month. Silly.
so it’s JOHN and DMV only?… for a month? when you get back, you’ll find us continuously slaving over the creation of more xanga labels as we curse everyone and everything to damnation because we’re none-the-wiser about the world’s events!
and it will be all because you left!
we’ll miss you dan… i guess we’ll just have to scour yahoo, fox, and cnn on our own for the news-worthy things that keep the xanga community a-buzzing…
hope the move goes wel! God bless!
I just moved (I’m not fully settled yet lol) and I still find time to come here (not as much as I’d like…).
see ya dan!
I wonder that the reason you don’t like the new featured system is because you don’t get featured as often?I remember the days you would have up to 3 posts in the featured list.. and that doesn’t happen anymore..
Hope that goes smoothly
Will miss u.. I pray your move goes easily as I know only too well how stressful it can be. I have moved twice inthe last five years and am set to do so again later in the year.. Thinking of u x
Wait, are you serious? I’m going to miss you so much. Is some one filling in for you? if your serious, you can’t just leave with out any more information!
Moving sucks, hope it all goes well.
I’m sure you know we’ll all miss you lots
somehow, i don’t even believe it. but of course it’s true. good luck with everything!
shoot. I keep coming here out of habit. I need to post a sticky note that you’re not updating.
Interesting response to amandasbiggestfan. Enjoy your break.
Enjoy the time while you can and good luck on your move!
Come back soon man. You’re the mayor of this community.
NOOOOOOOOO!!!
DAN!!! I WOULD’VE BEEN FIRST!!! I SAW YOUR POST AT EXACTLY 9:03!!! WHY!?!?!? OH THE IRONY!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHY DID YOU TURN OFF COMMENTS
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH YOU JUST CRUSHED MY DREAM!
lol
God Bless,
Chris
whoah!! so that’s why i have been waiting for a post from THE CAFE but there seems to be none. whoah. awwww.. i wish you come back sooner than a whole month.. i won’t have anywhere to hangout in the community anymore. :[
@CuteMami - the same friggin question is hounding me right now. how is that possible??
apparently you’re not busy enough to recommend other people’s sites
good luck with the move, dan!
hurry back.
xo
Good luck moving!
I’ll be thinking of you.
Have you been posting entries with comments disabled and then deleting them? PS. I enjoyed the 3 year old explaining about the Spitzer affair.
Is this some sort of early April Fools’ joke?
aw
Your posts will be missed! Looking forward to your return.
hey we’re moving too!
Best wishes!
Nooo! Now I won’t be able to give my worthless two cents on every non issue that arises.
With all do respect, can you hurry up and move because xanga is pretty boring without you needless to say, you’re missed on this end. Good luck with moving!
Is it really taking a break if you still post with comments disabled?
Good luck with the move. See you when you get back!
Did someone hijack your xanga?
Be ready to read about 15,000 comments when you get back! Happy moving!
It seems someone has taken over your Xanga and is pretty much ruining it. Not amused at all! Very sad!
wtf?! are you kidding me?! seal clubbing! how cruel!
@Get_Real_64 - I don’t think Dan is doing this. Several people have his password and I think they are taking advantage of it. I think I’ll be staying away for a while longer myself! Don’t need this type stuff at all!
what no comments on the clubbing seals post ?
What happened to taking a month off?
The clubbing seals thing makes me really freaking sad. &&& I like how you have comments disabled on it. Hiding from flamers though?
Whoever DID make that clubbing seals post needs to die a rotten death and I would like to be the one to stab their eyes out and then club them myself.. right up the fucking ass.
Stupid idiot.. that is not funny and that should NOT be posted on Dan’s site.. I KNOW Dan would NOT approve of that.
@jessicabravata - I don’t think anyone would approve of it! It’s horrible! who the f*ck does that.
Good luck!
But who will post for you? People will post for you, right?
Hah!
Man, I like how that seal clubbing post is getting recommended like all hell.
it’s so lonely without you.
As THEMEformurder said, “no, you won’t!”….I vaguely remember the last time you did this. Apparently, you’ve been reading you’re “how-to” books on bloggin and came across the “Faking your leave” bullet again. Regardless, I’m certain there is more than one person maintaining this site. and either you or all the others will keep it going…money money money
After seeing the seal thing, I’m not coming back for a while.
=O Where else will we get our fix of questions?
Hi Dan, I don’t comment much, but I am today because I believe that your xanga has been hacked. Happy moving!
Looking at the above post about clubbing seals, maybe we should be glad you’ll be gone…. Don’t mean to be cruel, but that was.
The seal wants to be clubbed? Come off it. Even if you meant it as a joke, it is purely tasteless and just like when an sexual abuser says their 4 year old daught wanted it.
Awful! Not funny one bit.
Dan, that makes me sad. You are my source of news, and now for a month I won’t have interesting stories to tell my friends about things that happened in this world. Maybe it’s a blessing though. Perhaps I’ll read all the archives, and not stop at the second page this time.
I wish you luck!
@BabblingBrooke135 - Lots of people have Dan’s password so I doubt it was really him.
I thought I was missing something……
Hope all goes well with the move!
aww, come back soon~
dropping by to let you know i was thinking of you!! hope the moving was smooth and safe process… come back soon!! we miss you here!!
did someone hack into your site for that seal post or something?
Good luck moving! And I think it’s a great idea to have a break from Xanga during it.
ugh, moving sucks…I’ve moved at least a half dozen times in my life, and it just never gets any easier…hope everything goes smoothly!
<8
liiiiiiies.
Oh Dan, you silly man you. What is Xanga going to do without your presence? How will the masses fight over one another to see who has the grace of first commenting your newest blog? How will Xanewbies get the attention they so crave by commenting on your post, and thereby generating random traffic because of sheer indirect communication?
HOW will we survive a month without being shamed by your writing prowess?!?!
I’ll try to manage. Just pray I don’t run out of Nesquik mix, or we’re in serious trouble.
ryc: hahaha I wasn’t talking about you! :p
Ah, vacation…well, from Xanga at least. I know I’m getting bored with my site. Come back with tons of ideas and good luck on the move!
So you arent really taking a break from xanga… you are just making us take a break from being able to comment…
Good! I don’t know anyone who xangas as much as you!
wishing you all the best with your move!
People who honestly believe that was actually Dan with the seal-clubbing pictures needs to get a grip.
Happy break! We all need one every now and then.
I thought you were taking a break…7 days later.
I see that you have updated and I want to comment!!! No fair.
Liar, liar, pants on fire!
See, you aren’t gone.
Where are you moving to? Another state? Another city in the same state? Why are you moving?
Have you been run outa town?
Actually, most of my friends are on myspace. Just a couple of people are on xanga.
i really wish dan would be back… =(
who’s xanga-sitting dan’s site? why can’t we comment? i mean i know the seal and the math problems weren’t his… but i’m thinking he did the ‘dear xanga’ post… or maybe not… cuz the comment option is turned off…
oh dan! we miss you so much!
thank you…
Don’t have too much fun while you’re away from us, alright?
Xanga is kinda quiet without you
Oprah and her New-Age Christ is it really an anti-christ?
i miss hearing from u
Just because you’re not allowing comments doesn’t mean you’re still away.
Uhhhhhh……so much for the “break” if you are still posting, eh? *shakes head* Is that some sort of bs ploy to keep people enthralled? If so, then the masses are sheep and this country is going to hell in a handbasket……….
Enjoy your break!
Cya soon
My Eight year old son saw this on the news and asked me about this? I was appalled to have to explain something “so adult” and “so unnatural” to him! God Help us!!! There is no innocence left not even in our youth. What have we come to? Do people really think this is Human Evolvement? I think we have regressed to primitive, hormonal, unable to control our urges, animals.
Well Dan hopefully by now the move is getting done and your getting organized with the new place….of course……hope all is well
365 comments. You could make a calender out of this, and read a comment a day!
Where did protected go?
Well since your last 2 posts are not comment enabled I will leave my greeting and opinion here!
I loved the the latest so much. I sat here laughing (outloud) while reading it, as so many “Xangans” came to my mind over the past few years. Your advice is sound dear man. Unfortunately, if the transgressors of these insights were willing to take advice or critique, they wouldn’t be on this list would they?
Oh but for the record. I sign all of my comments with “SA” and I won’t stop even as it puts me on your list. I grew up writing letters. My grandmother taught me the proper etiquette and signing was always a must. It was unfinished she said, and very impersonal if your name didn’t end the closing. So, I will heed my grandma and simply hope you don’t hold it against me!
Good to see you again. Hope all is well.
warmest thoughts, SA
I’m hesitant to believe you… because even when you go on short vacations you have other people post for you and whatnot. Why should the move be any different? And normally you offer better explanations. Though, you have been gone over a week… In which case, I hope the move is going well.
There goes half of xanga’s traffic
Hey! I miss you around here…miss your posting. Hope all goes well for you. My Hubby and I just moved this past weekend. It’s been a busy month or two up to now! Of course, now we are busy unpacking and getting settled!
Prayers for a great move for you!
Hugs, Carolyn
Do you think you could turn comments back on your newer posts? We have to come down here and comment.
OOOH SNAP.
no wonder there was nothing to read online.
*tearsz*
HURRY BACK!!
I hope everything goes smooth. & maybe none of your boxes will mysteriously go missing.
still busy? when can we post comments again?
Congrats on the move! My cousin’s at Rice right now. That’s in Houston, right? … :
Are you back yet? =P
Aww. A month will be on April 24th. Can you pleassseeee come back on the 23rd? It’s my brithday, and that would make me smile. =] - Jenni
Good luck. Enjoy your breaks.
At least you won’t have to worry about cold winters anymore. Just thought I’d look back in and see if you were back. Nope, nothing going on here. Hope you’re getting everything done with the move…moving is a pain. Cya!
it took me 4 months to get everything in place when I moved. lol Good luck to you. I hope it will take you only a month!
Good luck with the move! =]
still no leaving comments that’s sad. hope the move is going well.
props for the more updated post!
Okay dan…tomorrow will be a month. You better be back.
coming back tomorrow ?!
Tomorrow is the big day!!!
TOMORROW!!!
So, it will be a month tomorrow. Does that mean you will be back in full force tomorrow?
I do believe it’s been a month.
is today the day?
Oh, no. Whatever shall we do. Darn. I guess we’ll have to read and comment on real blogs now, won’t we.
your month is up!
hooray.
oTL IT’S BEEN A MONTH ! *sniff*
Moving IS a lot of work! Pop in from time to time and let us know how things are going, Dan! We’ll miss you!
It’s been about a month. I do hope you’ll tell us about all of your busy activities! We’d love to hear!!!!!!!!!
you must still be busy because it’s been a month already. Hope all is well with you and your family dan!
it is april 24th do you know wher eyour blog is???
oops 25th i don’t even know what day it is lol.
You’re letting your Xanga fans stalk you on Facebook?? Kinda risky, isn’t it?
Come back refreshed and all moved.
Just remember to sleep and relax those sore muscles.
I miss all the inane questions. Hurry…I mean TAKE YOUR TIME coming back.
It’s been a month.
Where are you? =P
r u back yet
Yeah, Dan, it’s been over a month. Please come back!
you never studied me though…
xanga misses you.
return!!!
Would you be willing to check out my latest blog?
it has been over a month. are you coming back?? please do come back soon and share us with wonderful juicy gossips, news and trivias!!
I hope you like your new place. A month is a long break. We’ll miss you.
Sally
DAMN! i wanted to read something neu
hello. you said youre gone from xanga, but left a comment on withoutidentity911, not that i care, but it really got me thinking, what was your point anyways- is “real problem” the fact that ‘mentally ill complain…’ or that ‘life isnt fair’ ? i think i will not find peace of mind unless you clear that, you know
Comments (418)
no you won’t!
What?! Dan leaving?! How is that possible?!
awww. luck with moving and all.
Holy crap! Has hell frozen over too?
awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
See ya in one month. Have TONS OF FUN moving y’all! ;p
Is some one taking over your site or will it be empty?
@TheGreenPanther - lol
sadness
Good luck with the move! I’d almost bet someone here that you’ll be back within a month. Perhaps I should start a ‘when will dan return’ pool or something… hehe.
Good luck with that. Last time I went on self-imposed xanga restriction, I ended up posting more.
. . .Though I’m sure you’ll be more disciplined than I was.
Hope everything goes smoothly with the move.
Wow! Good luck with all the moving!
We shall all await your return.
wow that was sudden. See ya in a month then
really lol
ok
Good luck with all that.
NO!
I love it here because of the constant updates!
Have fun on your hiatus! We’ll be thinking about ya!
Good Luck moving.
Hell just froze over
and it’s snowing on the fourth of July.
Holy hallway can this be real?
… happy moving tho! =]]
-Cryssie Leah
@TheGreenPanther -
My sentiments exactly.
-Crys
Really? I guess.. have fun! I’ll really miss the news.
You’ve said you were leaving for good before, got ten thousand comments and then came back the next day like nothing ever happened!
Awe, so sad Dan! Have fun!
wow. hope the move goes easily!
no way! is that a joke?
omg… no Dan for one month?! wow… it’s hard to imagine xanga w/o you… and one entire month… wow
Good luck w. moving though!!
NO WAY
see in a month. have fun moving.
Yeah right, you couldn’t live without Xanga. I am sure you will find some time, or at least make time to drop a line or two through Xanga
Dan, don’t be kidding with us. You know it ain’t so.
Sadface. Good luck, we’ll be here when you get back.
do we get a substitute teacher?
I will await your return………does this mean I can’t visit you this November when I am deer hunting?
Take care my friend.
We’ll miss you. Look forward to when you return. Good luck with the moving.
What will i do without you, Dan? I’ll have to do something absurd like…spend more time with my son.
Good luck with your move!
Good luck with the moving!
Xanga is NOT going to be the same without you.
I won’t be as educated from all your posts and picture posts.
have a smooth move!
aawww. I hope you have a smooth move!
Where will I get my news from?
GOOD LUCK!!!!
Good luck with your move!
darn it all now I have to start reading Drudge again…only without the funny commentary.
Good luck moving!
hope the moving goes well!
Good luck with your move! See you when you get back!
Seriously? =/ Where else am I gonna rant and rave?
Happy moving. Don’t stress yourself out too much.
wow that was a very formal goodbye letter…
no hugs?
kisses?
tears?????
Good Luck! We will miss your posts….fer sure!
Don’t let the door hit ya, where the good Lord split ya.
Seriously, I don’t think you could do a month-long hiatus from this place. Prove me wrong.
You are going to have to go through a 12 step program for recovering Xanga addicts. I am not sure if you can quit cold turkey.
I don’t believe you…
Best of luck! Yeah, moving definitely makes you super busy! Hope it goes smoothly, and we’ll see you again in a month!
Even if that’s really your intention (which I highly doubt), you’ll be back within a week. Guaranteed.
@TheGreenPanther - Brrrr…
OK, see you later. And by later I mean probably today or tomorrow when you post a blog.
Have fun moving!
Bye, Dan.
You know you can’t stay away from Steph for a month, anymore than I can.
I wish you hadn’t said “goodbye” like that. It sounds so final….
I miss him already!!! Waaaaaaaaahhhh!
well godd will on you adventures .
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
Moving sucks, so I forgive you for driving me back to our crappy newspaper which prints all the news worth knowing 48 hours after it happens. Good luck.
We will miss you!
hmm Xanga gonna be REAL quiet while you’re gone. Have a safe move and come back soon!!
See ya when you get back!
Really? Huh.
Well, if you’re not being a big fat liar, then good luck with the move!
This is probably just a screwed up experiment. Right dan?
Dang it! How are we going to get our news?
SIKE!
x0x MK
Wait I didn’t see any vacation requests Dan?
Awe, come on Dan, you don’t need to take a whole month off. You just need to update once or twice a week instead of 4 to 5 times a day.
See you when you get back.
lol, i don’t think he’ll be able to resist staying away for long…
Bye, Dan!
Have fun. We’ll be enjoying the peace and quiet. hehehe. j/k. TTFN. Be blessed.
What?! No!!! What are we going to do with ourselves?
Wait. Are you kidding?
Dan…where am I gonna get all of my absurd bits of news? And did Hell freeze over, too?
O_o
Oh well. Best of luck on the move!
<33
Happy moving. Maybe the new scenery will raise the level of debate to where it used to be.
Wow! I find it hard to believe that you could stay away for that long. Regardless, we will miss the forum here. Blessings to you and the family.
Good luck with the move… I hate moving personally. In the past 9 years, I have moved a grand total of 9 times. 10 if you count the small hiatus at family’s where only the truck got unpacked and everything was put into storage for a few months before we bought our current home.
i feel so lost!
…
good luck with the move!
Wow. I never thought I’d see the day!
good luck moving!
damn.
On the bright side, I’d have a lot more free time. =/
have fun moving! always my favorite thing ever….
*rolls eyes*
well shit.
And within one month, Xanga traffic drops 60%
see you soon.
cant believe that you can leave here for a month
Holy poop on a stick! You can’t leave me, Dan!
@TheGreenPanther - ha ha. Hell has frozen over indeed! lol
I bet he wouldnt last a week. I can barely last a day and I am not even a main online blogger-type. Plus, how long does moving take – either this is a joke or dan is a millionare because he has so much stuff to pack it takes a month to pack it up, move it, and unpack it. All my stuff takes me like a max of 4-8 hours to pack move and unpack in my dorm.. lol.
Moving is just about the most stressful thing I know, much luck =)
Grrr… where will I get my angst dealt with now????? Happy Move!
Wow, it’s going to be strange without you around. Did you write posts in advance for someone else to put up?
Oh, good luck with moving and what not.
You know, I find it hard to believe you when I see your little status light thing-a-ma-dilly coming on every hour or so!
you lie.
you’re trying to get tons of comments, and i’m contributing.
boo
Aw…I’ll miss you Dan, good luck with all the moving stuff. Check in from time to time, if you can.
Thank you. I needed to break free of my addiction. This will help.
Sobriety still sucks, but I’ll give it a few weeks more.
What will the interactive bloggers do in their lag time?
See you when you get back. Hope everything goes well for you…you will be missed.
Good! You insults too much anyway! We need a break from you.
Oh crap, I think I just saw a pig fly by my window…..
No. Please.. *sigh*
Good luck on your move – it’s always a big hassle…
You deserve a break. You should take more breaks from xangaland.
Best of luck with everything, Dan
See ya.
This is the first. When was the last time you have ever taken a break? Well, good luck on packing and moving to a new house.
LOL WTF?!
See you in a month! Good luck with the move!
awwwww, we’ll miss you!!
have a nice break! come back in one piece.
Good luck! Hope all goes smoothly!
Boo-urns!
an early april fools joke?
whoa. that was sudden. see you soon.
OMG! No warning – I keep thinking this is a joke right?
It would be a lonely/quiet month!!!! Good luck with moving!!! We will miss you! :]
There will be a lot of uniformed xangans over the next month…
Then I guess that I have to actually start reading/watching the news on my own. I’ve come to enjoy the fact that you take all the nonsense and leave just what is important…
*gasp* what will all of us xangans with nothing better to do do now to waste out time!?!?
*our time.
An entire month?
aww…come back quick lol..
*sighs sadly*
awe!… we’ll miss you, good luck moving! *smiles*
Good luck with the move. We’ll miss you.
Wha? Where will we go!?
Take it easy, Dan.
-David
Fun, fun, fun. Don’t hurt yourself by refusing help with a heavy piece of furniture from your wife because you decide to be a chauvinistic pig like my friend did when he helped me move. :]]
Though, I don’t think you will.Good luck and congrats (?) on the new place.
Have a stress-free time of moving!
Yeah right.
Good luck and God bless your move! I hope that Xanga doesn’t implode with the vacuum you will leave behind haha.
Here is a pre-emptive mini!
Goodbye! o/
Have fun. =]
//hatever.
but just incase, can you pass all your incoming traffic to me?
No………Say it isn’t so! Does this mean that I’ll have to go watch the financial news network with my husband now? Hurry back, and don’t either of you hurt your backs lifting heavy things.
That’s what you’re leaving us with? Nothing more, nothing less? Okay, great, have a smooth move and a semi-stress free one. =)
It is hard to believe you could stay away that long. I hope I remember to come back in 30 days.
How will i ever know the important news of the world now ? !
I want to cry for the people that believe you . . .
holy cow!
well good luck
it’s understandable although I will be missing your entries. guess we’ll all have a lot to catch up when you get back. be safe, you and the family, and enjoy your transition.
god bless.
In before the “just kidding” post.
I hope?
This is the only site I read anymore :[
holy cow. You updating is like a Xanga constant….what will we all do?
don’t forget us little people!
goodluck with the move. i now have to reason to check xanga.
Good luck with your move!
later.
good luck with the move! we’ll miss you while you’re away.
bye, bye!
Who will provide the ladies with moobs while you are gone!?
Wow, what will I do without your site to keep me informed on current events? Reading your blog is almost better then watching the news at times..
Best of luck with the move, Dan! We will miss you around here!
April Fools Day isn’t until next week!
we’ll be waiting.
wow i find it hard to believe that you of all people is taking a break from xanga. this is a joke right? i’m looking forward to the post that says haha just kidding…
well have fun moving!
is this some kind of joke?
XXXOOO
ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
my eyes are wet with tears like dew on a spring moring my legs are weak and Im barely standing I will not sleep till you post again…….. I will also eat nothing but chocolate cake and other such comfort foods…….. BoooooHoooooo…………………..Hoo!!!!
We will miss you.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Whhaaaaaat?!?
Are you joking dan??? Message me and let me know.
a whole month? wow. I’ll need to find some new entertainment
i bet you not posting for a month is going to work about as well as if amy winehouse decided to quit snorting cocaine for a month.
every time you see a computer with an internet connection, you’ll be thinking ‘well…it’ll only take a minute…’
in any case, moving is always an experience, so i hope you enjoy it!
we should have a countdown! haha 30days and counting down! =)
D:
We will miss you
. Thank you for the blogs. 
Hope the move goes smoothly for you! Looking forward to more blogs when the month is over.
If people rely on you as their only source of news in the world – holy crap, the world is in trouble.
Good luck with the move! I don’t know how anyone is going to make it without you for a month.
Bye Dan. My sub page is going to have so much less on it now.
Happy moving! I will miss you this month!
you know, xanga will have fall less going on without you, hope its still here when you get back!
THIS IS UNHEARDOF!!
what???…. the… nooooooooooooooooooo
WTF???? You better be damned joking!
Awww, what nifty questions will I read and answer for a month?
Seriously?
The world will go stupid and out of touch now.
What can I do for a month…?
Yay on the new house!
you just dropped a bomb on my head
but i guess this is a good chance for me to quit this xanga addiction too
ok, why does this post have 5 stars?
that doesn’t make sense!
whoa. unexpected.
Have fun!!
Don’t get stung by any bees!
I think that a xanga revolution might start..
With the absence of Dan for one month, I wonder how many people will get bored and start roaming xanga… and bam. So many more xangas will be subscribed to and read.
Or maybe not.
Godspeed Dan… hope the move goes well.
Great! Where am I gonna get my news from? Who’s gonna spam my Universal inbox?
See ya~
good luck moving i bet you may have fun!!if your wondering why my name is froggybutts thats because i think froggs are cute!! lol i know im kinda acting weard so uhh bye!!
wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaa WELL umm bye DAN we will miss you
But wait…what will we do without a new entry from you every few hours??
Surely we’ll go crazy.
Good luck with your move though!
First, I quit Myspace, now you quit Xanga!? There goes two of the whole five websites I ever go to! Gah, what will I do with my life? hah
Well, good luck with moving, Dan!
i’m waiting for the “sike”
it was just written so oddly… and i’m naturally skeptical.
I’m sorry to hear that. In the meantime, all of you can rest easy knowing that you can READ MY BLOG BECAUSE IT’S THE BEST BLOG ON XANGA and if you do READ MY BLOG BECAUSE ITS AWESOME you will get through this difficult time while TC is away.
I am there, for all of you.
bullshit!
Damn it Dan if you had moved a week ago I would have come and helped out………..congrats on the move………hell send all your subs over to me I ll ask them some crazy stuff….either that or they will laugh their arses off………good luck with the move……..
Hope everything runs smoothly when you move!
I can’t see you being MIA from XANGA for a WHOLE month. Is this a joke? LOL
Prank.
Oh, you won’t be able to manage that. At least I hope not.
Good luck on your move.
i’ll believe it when i see it
Bye bye, Dan. D:
Hahaha 8D
I don’t know whether to believe you or not. Sounds like a really good post to get LOTS of comments……….
I can’t believe you would stay away a month anyway. It doesn’t take that long to move, unless you are moving to another country, and they don’t have the internet.
If you are…….good luck. If you aren’t ………good post.
Hiatus is fun, but I don’t know what I’ll do without a Dan =(
whaaaaaa….you better be fibbin
ciao!
Good luck and I hope the move goes well!
-Guru on the Hill
This is mildly depressing. I hope you do well with your move.
no way…. the reason why i suscribed this blog ‘cuz i love the ur controversial posts…. cant find it in other blogs…….
i will miss ur posts!

woah. a month without dan the man.
you’re not gonna have some bad guest blogger are you?
:’( good luck with moving
Hope you enjoy your new house.
what? what am I going to do for a month???
Don’t make me have to watch the News, dan… don’t to it…
Oh yeah, my 40 days away from xanga is up and now you leave…and you’re the one that suggested the xanga for lent thing…sheeesh Oh well, I’m back now anyway. Hope your move is smooth and you get everything done you need to take care of.
you will still find a way to post and check your xanga.
you know it
once a xanga addict – always a xanga addict
for life!
Well… my Xanga time will be quite boring over the next month! Have fun moving!
Ohhhh the humanity! Well, it’s okay a month is only what like 720 hours?
nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!
what will we do without you?!?
Taking a break?!
Aww….
WOW I will Miss your posts, I look forward to them even if Im not a big commenter I like to read them… Hurry Back!!
The man who has a new entry every 2 hours is taking a break? Now Xanga will truly meet its demise.
awwwwwwwwwwww.. I’ll miss you!! hope you have a safe and breezy move =]
…. … now where am I to get my news….
hope you are well…..so abrupt! good thoughts for you.
no one to sub this time?
Ooh! Happy and successful moving, and I hope we don’t lose touch. Long absences can have that effect.
hark! did i hear a chorus of groans and sobbings??
*skipping happily*
Yes!!
Have a great break!
Can’t imagine xanga without you!
Don’t take too long, dammit! >_<
Good luck with the move Dan.
Moving to Texas?
aw man! that’s nuts! I hope the move goes well. That’s always tough in my opinion… God bless!
rcy yes =]
Should at least get someone to sub for you. =P
Now where will I go to answer all those interesting questions?!
I will miss you, Dan… Come back soon!
God bless your move!
Okay Dan. I promise I’ll never put whipped cream in your shoes while your sleeping again! Please come back!
Good luck moving!!..we’ll all miss you’re articles
Woah. This is strange. Good luck with moving.
You should have picked someone to fill in for you, though.
Good luck with everything, and come back soon!!
You sound like I sounded back in February. LOL
I can’t believe this.
*sits here shocked*
It’s strange coming back here and not seeing any new posts. Even though I know there won’t be any, it just feels wrong.
aw, i’ll miss the entries
see you soon!!
and hope moving and everything goes well!
wait… what?
nooooo….
YEA for selling the house!
I HATE to move. Hate it with a passion.
Good luck tho. We all need a break from Xanga from time to time. Hope this move is for the better for you.
Good bye and Good luck.
Regarding the post above: Drakonskyr is an ass and I refuse to read ANYTHING he has to write… doesn’t interest me. Thank bust no thanks.
I keep checking my subs out of habit.. you haven’t updated. *sigh* I’ll have to remember to check the news on my own. I don’t know where you got all of yours. I use yahoo and npr. Have a good break, anyway. We could all use one.
^^ Hah, I ROCK.
^^^Everybody loves to hate you.
hey! Didn’t recommend me when your away?!?!
I’m more family friendly then Dragonskyr!
It’s so delicious that all this hatred actually increase my readership. DEE LISH US I TELL YOU.
well…
1) i will miss you.
2) xangaland will be a little sad without you.
3) good luck, moving can be stressful.
4) see you back april 24?
I am saddened.
You kept me up on all the news.
Hope your move goes swiftly and well.
i think you live in PA right? Hope you don’t move other state!
@Drakonskyr - Hey Drakman, I’m back….did you NOT miss me?
@UnworthyofHisgrace - …who’re you again?
Just somebody you LOVED heckling! And I tried to go come to your site from Dans link to your site and my computer froze…yeah, you tryin to evolve my created computer with some virus ***big raspberrys***
@Drakonskyr - lest you forget, I made the comment a while back about one of your profile pics that looked like you had a headache and I made a joke or somethin about nose pickin and somebody that I thought it LOOKED like you were picking your nose. Does that refresh your memory? Anyway, no biggy! Hope you’re well!
Wow, it will be strange to not see your posts for a while. I hope that your move goes well – we will miss your thought-provoking writings!
But I only just got addicted!
Aw poo.
I hope this is just a cruel joke.
NO! I never thought I’d see the day.
Well, I hope to see you back sooner then later.
I’ll put a alarm on my phone to remind me in a month to check your site.
where am i going to read horrible stories about cats in the news so i can tell all my animal rights friends about it now?
I DON’T KNOW WHAT TO DO ON XANGA NOW.
ryc: thank you!
good luck! i’ll miss you!
There is no way you are going to stay away from xanga for a month. In fact, I bet you post within 48 hours.
believe me he is checking his posts now
i am going to miss you
Oooh, hope the moving goes well! I’ve heard it’s possible for moves to go well… just never experienced it. So good luck!
~M.E.
Glad to know you have a good sense of humor and can take a joke. Shows a lot about you. =]
Btw, it wouldn’t even be close, you would be the #1 pick in Fantasy Xanga drafts, for sure. Your blog has gotten ridiculously popular.
Hope the move goes smoothly.
April Fool’s!
Right? :] Have fun moving, Dan! If you’re good, you can make it in less than a month. Silly.
so it’s JOHN and DMV only?… for a month? when you get back, you’ll find us continuously slaving over the creation of more xanga labels as we curse everyone and everything to damnation because we’re none-the-wiser about the world’s events!
and it will be all because you left!
we’ll miss you dan… i guess we’ll just have to scour yahoo, fox, and cnn on our own for the news-worthy things that keep the xanga community a-buzzing…
hope the move goes wel! God bless!
see ya dan!
I wonder that the reason you don’t like the new featured system is because you don’t get featured as often?I remember the days you would have up to 3 posts in the featured list.. and that doesn’t happen anymore..
Hope that goes smoothly
Will miss u..
I pray your move goes easily as I know only too well how stressful it can be. I have moved twice inthe last five years and am set to do so again later in the year..
Thinking of u x
Wait, are you serious? I’m going to miss you so much. Is some one filling in for you? if your serious, you can’t just leave with out any more information!
Moving sucks, hope it all goes well.
I’m sure you know we’ll all miss you lots
somehow, i don’t even believe it. but of course it’s true. good luck with everything!
shoot. I keep coming here out of habit. I need to post a sticky note that you’re not updating.
Interesting response to amandasbiggestfan. Enjoy your break.
Enjoy the time while you can and good luck on your move!
Come back soon man. You’re the mayor of this community.
NOOOOOOOOO!!!
DAN!!! I WOULD’VE BEEN FIRST!!! I SAW YOUR POST AT EXACTLY 9:03!!! WHY!?!?!? OH THE IRONY!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHY DID YOU TURN OFF COMMENTS
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH YOU JUST CRUSHED MY DREAM!
lol
God Bless,
Chris
whoah!! so that’s why i have been waiting for a post from THE CAFE but there seems to be none. whoah. awwww.. i wish you come back sooner than a whole month.. i won’t have anywhere to hangout in the community anymore. :[
@musicdream16 -
yeah, i’m hoping he would take this back. this is the saddest news of my month.
@burritos -
well i do hope the cafe is bluffing.
@CuteMami - the same friggin question is hounding me right now. how is that possible??
apparently you’re not busy enough to recommend other people’s sites
good luck with the move, dan!
hurry back.
xo
Good luck moving!
I’ll be thinking of you.
Have you been posting entries with comments disabled and then deleting them?
PS. I enjoyed the 3 year old explaining about the Spitzer affair.
Is this some sort of early April Fools’ joke?
aw
Your posts will be missed! Looking forward to your return.
hey we’re moving too!
Best wishes!
Nooo! Now I won’t be able to give my worthless two cents on every non issue that arises.
With all do respect, can you hurry up and move because xanga is pretty boring without you
needless to say, you’re missed on this end. Good luck with moving!
Is it really taking a break if you still post with comments disabled?
Good luck with the move. See you when you get back!
Did someone hijack your xanga?
Be ready to read about 15,000 comments when you get back! Happy moving!
It seems someone has taken over your Xanga and is pretty much ruining it. Not amused at all!
Very sad!
wtf?! are you kidding me?! seal clubbing! how cruel!
@Get_Real_64 - I don’t think Dan is doing this. Several people have his password and I think they are taking advantage of it. I think I’ll be staying away for a while longer myself! Don’t need this type stuff at all!
what no comments on the clubbing seals post ?
What happened to taking a month off?
The clubbing seals thing makes me really freaking sad. &&& I like how you have comments disabled on it. Hiding from flamers though?
Whoever DID make that clubbing seals post needs to die a rotten death and I would like to be the one to stab their eyes out and then club them myself.. right up the fucking ass.
Stupid idiot.. that is not funny and that should NOT be posted on Dan’s site.. I KNOW Dan would NOT approve of that.
@jessicabravata - I don’t think anyone would approve of it! It’s horrible! who the f*ck does that.
Good luck!
But who will post for you? People will post for you, right?
Hah!
Man, I like how that seal clubbing post is getting recommended like all hell.
it’s so lonely without you.
As THEMEformurder said, “no, you won’t!”….I vaguely remember the last time you did this. Apparently, you’ve been reading you’re “how-to” books on bloggin and came across the “Faking your leave” bullet again. Regardless, I’m certain there is more than one person maintaining this site. and either you or all the others will keep it going…money money money
After seeing the seal thing, I’m not coming back for a while.
=O
Where else will we get our fix of questions?
Hi Dan, I don’t comment much, but I am today because I believe that your xanga has been hacked. Happy moving!
Looking at the above post about clubbing seals, maybe we should be glad you’ll be gone…. Don’t mean to be cruel, but that was.
The seal wants to be clubbed? Come off it. Even if you meant it as a joke, it is purely tasteless and just like when an sexual abuser says their 4 year old daught wanted it.
Awful! Not funny one bit.
Dan, that makes me sad. You are my source of news, and now for a month I won’t have interesting stories to tell my friends about things that happened in this world. Maybe it’s a blessing though. Perhaps I’ll read all the archives, and not stop at the second page this time.
I wish you luck!
@BabblingBrooke135 - Lots of people have Dan’s password so I doubt it was really him.
I thought I was missing something……
Hope all goes well with the move!
aww, come back soon~
dropping by to let you know i was thinking of you!! hope the moving was smooth and safe process… come back soon!! we miss you here!!
did someone hack into your site for that seal post or something?
Good luck moving! And I think it’s a great idea to have a break from Xanga during it.
ugh, moving sucks…I’ve moved at least a half dozen times in my life, and it just never gets any easier…hope everything goes smoothly!
<8
liiiiiiies.
Oh Dan, you silly man you. What is Xanga going to do without your presence? How will the masses fight over one another to see who has the grace of first commenting your newest blog? How will Xanewbies get the attention they so crave by commenting on your post, and thereby generating random traffic because of sheer indirect communication?
HOW will we survive a month without being shamed by your writing prowess?!?!
I’ll try to manage. Just pray I don’t run out of Nesquik mix, or we’re in serious trouble.
ryc: hahaha I wasn’t talking about you! :p
Ah, vacation…well, from Xanga at least. I know I’m getting bored with my site. Come back with tons of ideas and good luck on the move!
So you arent really taking a break from xanga… you are just making us take a break from being able to comment…
Good! I don’t know anyone who xangas as much as you!
wishing you all the best with your move!
People who honestly believe that was actually Dan with the seal-clubbing pictures needs to get a grip.
Happy break! We all need one every now and then.
I thought you were taking a break…7 days later.
I see that you have updated and I want to comment!!! No fair.
Liar, liar, pants on fire!
See, you aren’t gone.
Where are you moving to? Another state? Another city in the same state? Why are you moving?
Have you been run outa town?
Actually, most of my friends are on myspace. Just a couple of people are on xanga.
i really wish dan would be back… =(
who’s xanga-sitting dan’s site? why can’t we comment? i mean i know the seal and the math problems weren’t his… but i’m thinking he did the ‘dear xanga’ post… or maybe not… cuz the comment option is turned off…
oh dan! we miss you so much!
thank you…
Don’t have too much fun while you’re away from us, alright?
Xanga is kinda quiet without you
Oprah and her New-Age Christ is it really an anti-christ?
i miss hearing from u
Just because you’re not allowing comments doesn’t mean you’re still away.
Uhhhhhh……so much for the “break” if you are still posting, eh? *shakes head* Is that some sort of bs ploy to keep people enthralled? If so, then the masses are sheep and this country is going to hell in a handbasket……….
Enjoy your break!
Cya soon
My Eight year old son saw this on the news and asked me about this? I was appalled to have to explain something “so adult” and “so unnatural” to him! God Help us!!! There is no innocence left not even in our youth. What have we come to? Do people really think this is Human Evolvement? I think we have regressed to primitive, hormonal, unable to control our urges, animals.
Well Dan hopefully by now the move is getting done and your getting organized with the new place….of course……hope all is well
365 comments. You could make a calender out of this, and read a comment a day!
Where did protected go?
Well since your last 2 posts are not comment enabled I will leave my greeting and opinion here!
I loved the the latest so much. I sat here laughing (outloud) while reading it, as so many “Xangans” came to my mind over the past few years. Your advice is sound dear man. Unfortunately, if the transgressors of these insights were willing to take advice or critique, they wouldn’t be on this list would they?
Oh but for the record. I sign all of my comments with “SA” and I won’t stop even as it puts me on your list. I grew up writing letters. My grandmother taught me the proper etiquette and signing was always a must. It was unfinished she said, and very impersonal if your name didn’t end the closing. So, I will heed my grandma and simply hope you don’t hold it against me!
Good to see you again. Hope all is well.
warmest thoughts,
SA
I’m hesitant to believe you… because even when you go on short vacations you have other people post for you and whatnot. Why should the move be any different? And normally you offer better explanations. Though, you have been gone over a week… In which case, I hope the move is going well.
There goes half of xanga’s traffic
Hey! I miss you around here…miss your posting. Hope all goes well for you. My Hubby and I just moved this past weekend. It’s been a busy month or two up to now! Of course, now we are busy unpacking and getting settled!
Prayers for a great move for you!
Hugs, Carolyn
Do you think you could turn comments back on your newer posts? We have to come down here and comment.
OOOH SNAP.
no wonder there was nothing to read online.
*tearsz*
HURRY BACK!!
I hope everything goes smooth.
& maybe none of your boxes will mysteriously go missing.
still busy? when can we post comments again?
Congrats on the move! My cousin’s at Rice right now. That’s in Houston, right? … :
Are you back yet? =P
Aww. A month will be on April 24th. Can you pleassseeee come back on the 23rd? It’s my brithday, and that would make me smile. =]
- Jenni
Good luck. Enjoy your breaks.
At least you won’t have to worry about cold winters anymore. Just thought I’d look back in and see if you were back. Nope, nothing going on here. Hope you’re getting everything done with the move…moving is a pain. Cya!
it took me 4 months to get everything in place when I moved. lol Good luck to you. I hope it will take you only a month!
Good luck with the move! =]
still no leaving comments
that’s sad. hope the move is going well.
props for the more updated post!
Okay dan…tomorrow will be a month. You better be back.

DAMN! i wanted to read something neu
hello. you said youre gone from xanga, but left a comment on withoutidentity911, not that i care, but it really got me thinking, what was your point anyways- is “real problem” the fact that ‘mentally ill complain…’ or that ‘life isnt fair’ ? i think i will not find peace of mind unless you clear that, you know
@hugxlaughxsmilexlove - So sad! I miss all the inane questions!
@TakingxOverxMe - He’s playing it up for all the drama he can muster.
@PSUnited1 - Don’t egg him on. I’m enjoying the Peace and Quiet.
@thatpregnantgal - Actually. He didn’t “move,” I kidnapped him and I’m making him answer all his dumb questions from the last eight and a half years.
it has been more then one month are you trying for 2???
Yeah seriously. where are you
yah accha hai.
