Xanga and Blogging Communities
Well, it looks like xanga is going to stick with the new “blogging community” sites called Datingish, Revelife, Healthkicker, Momaroo, Dollarish, Lovelyish and Wifekicker.
(Special thanks to Seedsower for making the wifekicker icon.
Now I started to look at these sites and I can see Datingish is pretty popular and has the best content. But I am married so I don’t really connect with that group. I have written 4-5 posts for Revelife but I always feel like the Revelife group hates me.
I think the community where I would fit in the best is Healthkicker. I like all the people on that site and they are so warm and friendly. I don’t read the posts but I like the community itself. I have met some really nice anorexics on that site. (For all you haters who pick on the thinspo sites, just remember that the alternative is fat chicks).
Which of xanga’s new sites do you identify with the best?
Comments (131)
… None of the above. Really.
They need a Codgerish. I could identify with that.
Wifekicker – lol.
ehhh i guess dating dish would be the best…but that new beauty one might be of some interest!
I vote TheTheologiansCafeish. That’s the one I best identify with.
Wifekicker?
Hahahaha?
momaroo
hahah…i said dating dish….bleh
Wifekicker, LOL!
Lol wifekicker. I like datingish and lovelyish the most.
@CiaoBella810 - @saintvi - @IfonEarth - How the hell did you all comment before me!? That is so weird! Do you all realize that we were all…united, for those few seconds..together, here, at thetheologianscafe?
Momaroo.
@onlyFORaLILwhile - @CiaoBella810 - @BarelyJen - @UnVolume - Do you all realize that we were all…united, for those few seconds..together, here, at thetheologianscafe?
i couldve sworn hoodstars was one of them…?
Lovelyish needs to step it up if they want my clicks.
So far, it’s like a bunch of middle schoolers made a web site.
Datingish.
” but I always feel like the Revelife group hates me.”
Hahas! hilarious.
I’m going to have to go with momaroo….either that or wifekicker.
@BrittMiles27 - Haha. Because I’m on Xanga way too much? I don’t know.
Well, I have a lovelyish site, but the one I read the most is healthkicker.
noneeeeeeee
poor fat chicks.
You don’t identify with the Wifekicker one?
None really. Lol, Revelife is okay sometimes, as is Datingish. But I don’t feel like I really fit in either of them. *shrugs*
Nope, you fit in best right here.
damn, I was actually excited to join Wifekicker …
none. I am a Xangan.
the datingish ones frustrate me because some of them are whiny, and I don’t really get any advice from them, and I kind of enjoy the momaroo ones, except for when you need a baby to answer the question. I don’t have a baby, so I can’t tell you what my baby’s favorite toy is.
datingish I guess… relationship problems make me giggle
They need a “Bitch about insignificant shit such as offshoots of xanga that you are by no means required to participate in”-ish.
Healthkicker.
Which do I identify with the best?
The fat chicks…oh wait there is no “Blimpish” yet.
also yeah, http://www.hoodstars.com is another spin-off, but they don’t advertise it for some reason.
@BrittMiles27 - it’s a very cool thing, indeed!
Xangaish.
There’s a wifekicker now??? wow… eh, I could care less about the sites… I don’t really identify with any of them… Maybe the Datingish and Healthkicker site.
probably Momaroo and Revelife- but I very rarely venture onto any of the satellite sites- I’ve got plenty to keep me entertained on the mainland of Xanga world.
i want to start a new one called “getalifealreadyish”, where people spend more time doing things in their real lives than pretending to have a real life and then talking about it on some blog…
I never stay on the same subject, that makes me a xangain
though I still think bitchaboutxangaish would be great
Hey, I’m a fat chick, what’s so wrong with that?!
None of them.
probably datingishhh
I don’t think I’ve been to any of them really. Or at least gone over and really read something.
None.
Just plain Xanga! Never have really messed with the others. I looked a little at Revelife when they first started it, but commented was a pain, it always said I needed to sign in when I was signed in. It was a pain so I stopped messing with it and haven’t been back.Never have looked at any of the others, I perfectly satisfied with just plain Xanga
Lovelyish.
Datingish, followed by HealthKicker. I don’t relate to the other ones at all.
lol this is funny.
Drunkish would be a great site
Plain Xanga.
None of them really, but I enjoy Revelife:
Plenty of Christians to pick on. And the people their tend to write long, thoughtful comments– which I appreciate.
i like datingish the most. I like reading stories and hearing advice and sometimes giving it.
Even though i’m not a mother, momaroo is pretty interesting. It reminds me of my childhood.
Revelife i can handle once in awhile.
I don’t know that I identify with anything. If I had to I would probably say healthkicker, but I’ve never been there. The site I comment on the most is yours.
“For all you haters who pick on the thinspo sites, just remember that the alternative is fat chicks.”
hahhahhah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111 so true!!
I only find myself reading Revelife, Healthkicker, and Momaroo. Sometimes momaroo is too much snot…I def. like Healthkicker best seeing as I lost 65 pounds last year and am just in general fascinated by all things healthy.
Since I’m interested in sex, love, and relationship issues, I find the blogs on Datingish the most interesting to read.
I’ve learned a great deal on Healthkicker too, though.
Lovely-ish is okay. It’s kinda girly for me, but whatever.
I don’t wanna be in any of those groups. I just like good ole’ Xanga. I am glad to see you don’t most identify with Wifekicker, lol!
Kathi
None…this reminds me too much of clicks(did I spell that right…oh well you know what I mean.)
I think Datingish, Momaroo, and Healthkicker are my favorites. I’m really subscribed to all of them though.
healthkicker
LOL, Wifekicker. Ver’ nice.
um. probly datingish…
are they gonna start emoish soon? or AZNish… i mean come on. get with it.
@mixcoolchick - cliques.
@listen_to_The_Pixies - I like that idea.
I don’t go to any of them. Not worth my time…
Penish.
im subscribed to healthkicker and lovelyish
i like lovelyish : )
@writingsongsforBlair - ”none. I am a Xangan.”
Precisely.
lovelyish!
i like lovelyish best because unlike healthkicker, datingish & revelife, the posts/comments never make me annoyed or wonder how some people managed to get so stupid…
If I HAD to pick one… and was forced at gunpoint to make a site on one… I’d have to go with Revelife but honestly I’m not a big fan of any of them.
None of THISH
None so far. Haven’t been to Dollarish.
datingish
You forgot to mention HOODSTARS!!
Although I refuse to go there because they all have terrible grammar skills that are more annoying than listening to 10 different BeeGees albums all at the same time.
I don’t fit too well with any of them. Now, if we had a husbandkicker…
@seedsower - We should so start BLIMPISH!!
Even though I’m not a mom, I love momaroo, maybe because I’m an older sister, like, a really older sister, my baby sister is 14 years younger than me….
I also dig Health Kicker, and Datingish
Datingish.
uh…healthkicker and lovelyish, probably. That’s totally an Angeleno stereotype–obsessed with health, superficial, and vain.
Wifekicker… oo, I could do some magnificent trolling on a site like that…
I wouldn’t say I fit into any of the other sites’ environments, but I seem more likely to comment on Revelife than any other.
catpooish forevaaaaa
I only subscribed to healthkicker. Many of the posts there are interesting (although not always correct) and the comments are often entertaining.
none of them. idk. maybe dollarish. i’m thrifty.
like on of your other commenters said, i’m a xangan. but I really don’t care if xanga wants to have offshoot sites.
<3
i haven’t checked out the other ones, but i check on Revelife semi-regularly (if that’s even a proper term). but i do get that vibe on that site there from time to time, when it seems like some folks are not just Christians, but EXTREME Christians. i enjoy the exchange of ideas but it seems like some people are just bent to evangelize the shit out of anyone who has the audacity to have a differing interpretation/view/opinion.
you know what would be amusing though? “Alzheimerish”! i’d be interested in what they’d blog about on a day-to-day basis.
“Today I woke up next to this old woman who claims to be my wife. I was planning on leaving after breakfast but her daughter is pretty hot!”
i’ll probably get struck down for that…
I would say datingish, but they’re too hostile towards me. I like Xanga.
And you forgot EmoKicker.
probably revelife: even though i don’t consider myself a Christian anymore, i’m still a pretty spiritual person, and love talking about it.
momaroo and healthkicker
The one with the Asian girls…
none
Drugish.
Don’t judge me!!!
Wifekicker? Hahaha.
I think I go the best with Healthkicker, but I really fon’t fit in with any of them.
Wifekicker? Shouldn’t that be Wifebeater?
“Just remember the alternative is fat chicks”. Ok that made me seriously laugh out loud.
I think I belong to theologianscafeish
Fat chicks. Nice. Because there’s nothing on this earth that’s worse than being fat.
lol wifekicker?
none of them. They all suck =) Not really I just think I will stick to xanga
Datingish & Revelife. I have accounts on both.
wifekicker? LOL
None. I’m not in that “dating and it’s complicated” category. I’m not a mom. I don’t pay too much attention to my health. And I’m a Christian, but evelife sometimes feels like…I don’t know…TOO churchy.
I guess lovelyish – though that is the LAST site I EVER thought I’d relate to. It only relates to me right now because I’m choosing styles (clothes, hairdos, shoes, etc) for my wedding.
I’ve never heard of wifekicker.
yours
I’ve never checked out any of them.
@makethemakersmile - Thank you! I knew I had it wrong.
None of them. And I wish they would stop soliciting me to join. I don’t care.
dollarish. Yup that’s me!
yay for skinny chicks!
boo for fat chicks!
momaroo i guess. although i unsubscribed after a few days.
it got on my nerves.
how about husbandbeater.
I would have totally joined WifeKicker.
Honestly, I really like Datingish. Yayy for seedsower! I love Beth every much!
LOL @ Wifekicker icon!
datingish and healthkicker for me
Datingish
all the love for the partner sites warms the cockles of my little black heart
(DATINGISH IS #1! I AM NOT BIASED IN THE LEAST)
i was big on datingish, but then it got a bit too whiny…(sorry)
now its all about TheTheologiansCafeish and of course antisoccermomish, and wherethefishlivesish…
too many ishes….=/
I like Datingish just because I like to put my input about everyone’s dating problems and just things of that nature.
I also really like revelife though I never really know what to say to some blogs.
Xanga.
But I go and troll Revelife once in a while.
@writingsongsforBlair - Hoodstars really is like another Xanga. Most of it contains rappers and R&B singers, and the rest are for Black or even a quarter Blacke people immersed into the culture.
Ahaha, I was like… WIFEKICKER ?! WHAAAA- ? Then I realized you were joking. I think. o_0
I can relate to Datingish the most, and Dollarish is a distant second.
i guess i relate most to Lovelyish? eh, i dunno. YET.
revelife … and I don’t hate you …
@mixcoolchick - we all knew what you meant
None. I’m happily coupled up, although not married, am not interested in bettering myself healthwise or financially, am not a mom and do not plan to become one anytime soon, I’m most definitely NOT a Christian, and I could give a crap about the latest trends in beauty and makeup. I have my own style and I could care less if it’s outdated or whatever.
Revelife. Defintely.
Death W-ish.
Blogging about blogging…does the insanity ever end?
none of those links worked for me..
lmao…I knew I was anorexic..but nice?? Now that’s pushin’ it hon….just messin’ with ya!! kim
why isn’t there asianish yet? that way all the white guys can satisfy their asian fever.
Well, I was only exposed to Datingish, momaroo, and revelife from the Xanga’s home page. So, far I like Datingish because I’m still single and interested in hearing other people dating stories. Ironically, they haven’t taken much notice of me instead, the blog community of momaroo did.
Revelife. But I’m a true Xangan at heart.
@doraemonxo - OR, Asian people can write blogs about being Asian… but your idea is totally cool.
Wifekicker..LMAO!
I subscribe to all of them, but I think momaroo is the one I comment on the most. I like agruing with the formula feeding freaks (j/k)
Dollarish. Because money talks.
Maybe the dollarish..cause I am always trying to figure out my finances…
@daneger_zone - we already write blogs about all things asian. about how we only date korean men, how we love to pose sexy for yosho, how we love rice, etc.
hahaha
None of the above…
@doraemonxo - How about the lost Asians write about being lost Asians? Like they don’t know if they should act white or Asian. That’s always a laugh. Or being anti-Asians. Like you’re Asian but you eat potato and roast beef and stuff instead of rice, and you date blonde dudes.
… I love rice too much to be an anti-Asian.
goodness – they must have liked how the word “datingish” looked, and said “well hey, why don’t we make a few more sites with ‘-ish’ tacked on the end? that’ll be great!!”
they hasten their own demise.
*shakes head*
are you still planning on moving to your own WordPress-powered site? that would be great
Revelife
